Sorry I misunderstood, I thought the Isles were one down from EB1 with Ireland losing its southern province to Eremos.

The re-shaped Pritanoi provinces look a sweet fix, almost as neat as the Sardinia/Corsica solution. Just one less port, but its the starting province so its quite telling I imagine.

Of course how the neighbouring continental provinces work out wil be important too (eg if trhe Belgic area has been redrawn). I recall I never could get much trade out of the southern Indian port despite its great trade potential: I suspect the port distribuition as well as a lack of viable trading partners was part of the deal (hostile AS and all that): as rich as the Prytanoi get they'll need good ways into Europe to thrive.

There's so many little details to nut out in province slicing and dicing. Good work was done on the Baltic coast in EB I felt, would love to see the EB2 version (if my maths is right there will be one less Baltic port...but maths is not my strong suit) and the province re-shaping there prolly reflects the inclusion of the Lugiones...
