I'm just going to say again, I still don't understand not using the full length of the isthmus.

[@flagg] Aerial/flying units yay or nay?

[@Aristo] The rivers that run through both our lands don't make sense :lol 

There'd have to be some kind of mountain or at least a large spur along our border, for the river to go in two directions. Then again the land may just lie that way! I'm going to name some of the individual distributaries but we can just settle on a name for the whole thing!

Anyway, it's also a very important strategic point that between us, we control the only river system that actually bisects the isthmus.

Hi Dark, in answer to your questions:

1) We're not using its full length bc people wanted to be clustered close to one end, and I tried to accommodate placement preferences early on.

2) rudimentary air transport is fine, areal units for fighting, let's stay away from.

3) The map is not an exhaustive topographical description of the landscape, just a way to get relative city locations, biome types, rough distances, major land marks like rivers and lakes and mountains. If a spur of land, etc, is required to explain the flow of a river, you can assume there is such an explanation. Everything is still a draft and subject to change as I try to give folks what they want.
