Western,
Thanks for chiming in! Appreciate your comments! I don't know if I'm the man for the job (in deference to those who've already tread this path), but I'm certainly continuing work on the maps.
My first obstacle is in deciding upon scope, and then factions, which in turn decides scope. Here are my thoughts:
1) Large map - Upper right corner would be about Paris, France. Lower right, as in default map. Except for English, which would be inset or abstracted, all 8classic historical crusades represented.
2) Medium map - URC would be Geneva/Milan/Genoa, with corresponding abstractrations/insets.
3) Small map...etc...
4) Mixed map - 1) Above with Crusader States inset map.
Whaddya think?
