MedioEvo Universalis

Final corrections before publication by the Giochix...

I know that there are many errors in the names of the territories, it's something that I never corrected by 1999.

To correct mistakes of the names of territories on the map I thought to entrust me the PC game Crusader Kings II.

There are several information on Wiki, for example, the table of the Kingdoms: http://www.ckiiwiki.com/Kingdoms

The table of provinces: http://www.ckiiwiki.com/Provinces

My territories do not correspond to any of these two divisions, are not even the duchies, so it is not so easy ... the best solution would be to choose the Province more important or more famous historically and use that name for the "macro-region "that I used to split the territories of my map.

Let's start with Spain, as usual :p

This is the version of CKII:

My map should already be ok:

But I have some doubts:
- Aragon or Zaragoza? Probably better Aragon.
- Douro, Portucale and Coimbra? Here on BGG they had recommended Duoro, but also Portucale (which would be the first County that gave birth to the Kingdom of Portugal) should be fine.

NEW ENGLISH SECTION on the forum: http://www.medioevouniversalis.org/phpBB3/viewforum.php?f=48 I created this section of the forum to allow foreigners to read how the prototype originated and evolved and what are the game mechanics and components... If you have questions, write me on this section of the forum, You are Welcome! :)

I do not know if I'll have time to do it every day, but I will try to do that too ... I will keep here the updated image (as possible) with the work in progress that I'm making on the final map, the research on heraldry, the names of territories, etc etc ...

Finally texts to stick on the map arrived, so now I have no more excuses, I have to begin final assembly ...

I started from the place that was the hardest thing to glue because the material used, after baking, was boarded on the edges a lot ... at first I thought enough to put a number of shims at the edges and then on a level place with a nice weight , but it was virtually impossible and I was forced to paste it point by point by pressing with my fingers.
I risked ruin everything because at a certain point a little more glue remained on the fingers, and I was pulling the color from the logo ... PANIC! Fortunately with the bordeaux enamel and a gold marker I fixed where I had caused the damage.
The rest is all right.

I also pasted the back of the Treasure deck, the locations of cities, magnets for the trees and texts:

Also here everything is right:

The gray text instead does not go well, especially on dark backgrounds, so in Scotland they see little ... and even the names of the cities, if put on the sea, they see little ... but that is the color and that remains:

Yes, the 3D map is a unique handcrafted, I created a detailed discussion about its evolution, all in italian sorry, but I think with google traslator you have not problem to understand: http://www.medioevouniversalis.org/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=2063

I hope that the explanation will be useful for creating your own 3D maps, if you have questions about it I am at your disposal.

Components of the deluxe version with miniatures !!!
http://www.medioevouniversalis.org/images/CROWDFUNDING/MedioEvo_Universa...

The HERMIT version is WITHOUT miniatures, there are only cardboard pieces ... the other deluxe versions are all WITH miniatures and differ only in price, not in the components ... Therefore the first who join the campaign will have the cheaper version.

P.S.:
I remind everyone that those who view the page of the crowdfunding campaign with his cell phone does not see the pictures ... at the bottom of the page there is a link in red DESKTOP VERSION, this way you will see all the images as if you were in front of a computer.
