OOC: Great first update HS. If I might make some suggestions, they'd be focused on perhaps cleaning up the presentation a bit with formatting and what have you. Other than that it was jolly satisfying.
Also, I'd like to put on the table again the motion of moving back to the old map. This new map is frankly turning out to be an eyesore.
