Good Luck On designing your next version Maybe ask for more input on The General Discussions boards, People chat there all the time

I see, well Consider the Coal/ Oil Under oasis, and A tiny amount of trees in oasis's and rivers+
+ the Iron sediment even if it is very low quality.

Sorry I'm not a fan of maps with lots of resources and won't be making one of those

Sounds Great Comrade,
This Looks amazing for a start map,
My comments are just for added realism, Also You might want to think about adding a resource rich version As some of the resources are quite spread out

Maybe some oasis's with oil/Coal under them from thousands of years of plant growth and decay

, And rivers with some Iron Sediment in them, running down from the mountains,

Take inspiration from other Map Makers, every bit helps

Your on the right track

Those are fair comments. I'll take them on board for a future map or version 2 of this one. Cheers

On that Same not you Should Add A few Oasis's "Tiny Spring Lakes" With trees Around them, They exist in the deserts, And For that river add trees to it too, You want as much realism as possible, Think Egypt or Mestopotamia

Good job On your first map Comrade.
It looks like the sahara desert.
I might mention that is more likley an ocean than a lake so fertile area Around it does not make any sense to me.

Maybe add a river or something and have the fertile land around that, to make it more realistic,
after all Salt kills crops.

Just adding realism Tips Great JOB
