[@Willy Vereb] If I said that then I use GM power to modify it ay my whim but I don't remember saying "this is strictly going to be Free Form". I'm using the WFB map becuase I'm lazy and I really don't want to be bothered with making a new world map so I'm using WFB map plus I know its just notEurope in that map, its where most of the factions currently are so I decided that I decided it would be best to just get a map focused on that area instead of overwhelming with a world map.
[/quote]My point wasn't to demand you trying it to be as freeform as possible. It just seemed weird that with highly encouraged custom factions we'd need to occupy the borders of one of the canon nations.
Anyways, that map lacks the territory of chaos, Araby, Tomb Kings and the Dark Lands which is another source of threats to the Empire.
Okay, it has a tiny portion of them sticking out at the edges but that's it.

Personally I'd wish to be coming from the Dark Lands now, no spooky skeletons and ork tribes to fight through before I get to be a threat to "civilized lands". I can immediately do that which interactions wise is far preferable.
