How does Mexico connect to the sea zones to its east? Is there a separate small sea zone that connects to Mexico & Western United States or does connect to sea zones off the Eastern United States and/or containing the West Indies?

I will extend the boundary for the sea zone to the East to Mexico.

Agree

I found another map error. South of Mexico are the “Christmas Islands”. I assume that the Galapagos Islands were actually meant.

I believe this is referring to Kirimati which is also known as Christmas Island?

@RogerCooper also, since this map is so obviously inspired by Xeno World at War, that map has the same error. Rename them out of artistic license if nothing else imo.

@The_Good_Captain I will do so. Here is where I am on the map. Note that red lines will be used as the actual boundaries.

@RogerCooper looks awesome so far! very much appreciate you doing this Roger. East and West deserves the attention imo

There’s a tiny SZ east of Mexico, just as there is/was in Classic, no? It should border West US and Mexico on one side, and the East US SZ and West Indies SZ on the other side.

Map, as it appears in MapView:

As mentioned in the podcast, the Canary Islands (Spain) on the E&W map are exactly where the Cape Verde Islands (Portugal) are, on the W@W map. The island grouping is even drawn exactly the same as on the W@W map, but they’re colour-coded to Western Europe in E&W. Go figure. 🙃
