NEED FEEDBACK: What do you think of this map ?

[Furious Mental]

I reckon it looks good. It might be a bit weird having a big desert in the middle of the map but sometimes it's good to try something different.

Well this map is a lot more "strategic" than vanilla. Arabian desert should really be impassable most of the year unless you have mega water supplies. So it will be impassable I think, for the most part. There are also a lot more choke points and valleys etc. Khyber Pass, Khunjerab Pass is there as well I think (northeast towards China). The valleys in the Caucaus should also be a lot more important for army movement, such as the valley between Ani and Yerevan.

There are a lot more rivers, which limit the movement of all cavalry armies. Anyway expect MASSIVE CAVALRY BATTLES, eastern style. Think Mongols and Timurids in vanilla.

Martok, being Caliph will bestow a large economic bonus (probably a piety one too ?). Will be a title for your King and will have various other bonuses which have not yet been detailed by the developers. Obviously this will only be applicaple to Islamic empires. If I hear something new I'll post. BTW Martok how come you did'nt buy the game yet ?
