It would improve the maps ten fold. Great work on them though This height problem only arises because our monitor aspect ratios is wider than tall. Not all countries are wide and thin and I don't really want to create wasted land... besides if the maps are made larger, the focus is less on the country itself and probably calls to "unlock" the neighbour countries would also arise Thanks, ezzatam Loading...

Everything has infantry, and when you take countries you get infantries instead of militias. That's because between now and 1/12/2012, you need 2k sp in Alpha just to get Ground:Secondary Defence. So instead of people moaning at me for not being able to create any militias, I added them in the Ground: Other, hence the engine doesn't recognise them as starting units in countries.
