Maps and Provinces

[caravel]

Connecting Britain to Scandinavia is pushing it a bit. You would then end up with the English surging into that region far too early on.

This is how I see the province and landbridge situation so far:

1) The Flanders/Wessex landbridge restored.

2) Granada to Fes landbridge removed.

3) Ireland to Britain (Wales and/or Scotland?) landridge introduced.

4) Sardinia and Corsica either removed altogether or merged to a single province. If merged then where should the landbridge be to Italy be (Tuscany or Genoa?)?

5) Crete removed or merged to become part of Morea, not too historical but at least it has some pseudo representation. At present it's a useless province, where the Byzantine can become stranded.

6) Cyprus removed or connected to the mainland. Antioch would be the best point of connection perhaps? Connecting Cyprus gives us an additional province in the Levant "crusading region". At present it's totally useless.

7) Siciliy will remain as is - connected to Naples.

In addition to improving connectivity in places, this approach could potentially free up more provinces for use in more important areas (potentially another four provinces could be freed up).

Once this is complete the next region of the map I will be working on will depend partially on what people want? Suggestions for provinces are now welcome. (I need to have a look and see how many free provinces I have left at the moment).
