The Netherlands

[Matrix]

This map just shouldn't be missing. Not when I'm around.

The fact that there are no mountains, no tundra, and very little hills and 'deserts' (=beach or dike) made it hard to have the resources adequately divided. I didn't want to mess with the rules. The 'terpen' in Friesland, Groningen and a bit in North-Holland were useful though.

Also it's a 100x100 map which might be a little too big. And while making the map I noticed I made the Netherlands too big in comparison with the map size: it didn't fit, so Limburg is only there partially; even a bit of Zeeland is missing.

The starting locations are: every capital of a province, except Maastricht, plus Amsterdam and the Hague.

All in all, I think it's fun to play; for a Dutchman. I'm gonna try it out now.

It's good when there's some choice for players. Yet he doesn't have beaches (and those islands in the north (Waddeneilanden) are more than 50% beach!) and no difference between clay and sand.

But mine is actually too small and his is too large (more Germany than Netherlands there!).

I agree on you with that one. By the way, thanks for making the map, it saves me a lot of work

there are way too many starting locations.
+ you're missing the reno bay. but otherwise it'd make a great Benelux conquest(though belgium and luxemburg aren´t present)
