…I should spend my time just playing instead!

If only you knew the power of the dark side [of modifying endlessly a game you only rarely have the opportunity to play]… Can’t wait to hear your postgame notes!

@Titus looking at your overlays:

• Rio, Cape Town, Cairo, and Singapore VCs
• Morocco
• Sardinia, Sicily, Greece & Italian East Africa
• Basic update to Med SZs incl Bosphorus
• Ceylon
• Malaya, Split DEI 3+3 but keep single SZs
• Aus split 1 + 2
• 1PC for all pacific Islands
• Hokkaido + Aluetians
• NW China + Jehol
• Siberia + Irkutsk

• a Scotland split

…all based on Tjoek’s “clean” version of the map.

Did I miss anything?

@vodot I think that’s it!

Addition of Anhwei (1) split off from Suiyuan (1) and Jehol Recolor (previous upload had Jehol and other Japanese-occupied Chinese TTs colored orange like Tjoek’s source img):

[Titus]

@vodot Sweet! Jehol recolor is awesome!! Scotland looks great too! Thank you for all your hard work.

[Titus]

@vodot would you be able to do a Scotland 0 ipc value variant? Thank you!

[vodot]

@Titus When you cut out the overlay, just cut off the 2 :)

[Titus]

@vodot You are a smarter man than me. XD

Almost definitely not true… but I have spent years thinking about, staring at, tweaking, and cutting out these overlays :)
