Another attempt at a Nirn map

Wow, this is great! My main reference had been the map here: http://www.uesp.net/wiki/File:TamrielMap.jpg but that's... um... <insert Elder-scrolls themed term for crap/junk/trash here. Sorry>. I mean, "Markarth Side" almost directly south of Solitude? Come on! Thanks for making a much better version, both in terms of accuracy, detail, and just looking nice.

As for constructive criticism or ideas (I hope I don't come across as demanding):

  1. I'm pretty sure Lyg is a real place on the same planet, as bizarre as it all is. How about a version that includes it?
  2. I can tell this is supposed to be a contemporary (as of Skyrim) map how about a version with Artaeum? You could have it with some weird border or color or maybe just an outline to indicate that it's not there now, but just have something there that shows where it would be. Ah, maybe it's not such a good idea but I thought I'd bring it up just in case.
  3. This is very nit-picky I'm sorry but I think Dragon Bridge should be more on the Karth River. I mean if you consider the size Tamriel is supposed to be it would mean the town is at least a few miles away from the bridge it's named after.
  4. Again I know this is supposed to be contemporary but a version with villages in Skyrim that didn't appear in TESV, such as Heljarchen and Amber Guard, would be cool, for the interpretation that their absence is just game mechanics. I mean, there are some decent mods that add them back into the game.
  5. Would you consider adding a version with Hold and County borders and labels? Although I guess it might not look so good to have too much detail in the provinces we know more about when there's less information on the other provinces, and the borders of Cyrodiil's counties may have changed since Oblivion. Just an idea.

Sorry, that's a lot of ideas. Maybe I should just make my own edits, if you don't mind. But I'd want it to look consistent, so what font and software did you use for this?
