Alternate original seven faction mod

Is this correct?

Looks like it.

How about I use a hybrid version of the two layouts. I think that should help relieve that spillover effect while still keeping the generally linear and straight layout of the bases? What do you think of this idea?

[Geo]

It's your spiel of course, but the base layout is too linear IMHO.

Okay, I get it. However, I hope everyone realizes that there will be some amount of some spill over into adjacent tiles from any larger base. Also, I think tha since tiles adjacent to water have less land on them, it causes most bases to appear as if they are partially in the ocean.

Well, it's a problem when said overlap causes an entire structure on the end to hang out over the bay, and some of that's attributable to the asymmetrical layout making it much more noticable...

[Dio]

Do you like this version better?

[Geo]

YESSSSSS!!!! 

[Buster's Uncle]

Yeah, I think so.

[Dio]

Sizes 1 and 4 university bases.

[Buster's Uncle]

That's starting to look like something.  -Not just some sort of CAD drawing or something.

[JarlWolf]

That's pretty bad ass. It actually looks like observatories, and has some pretty good perspective.

Here is a screen shot with the bases.

[Larrin]

Nice, what did you use to make them?

[Dio]

Nice, what did you use to make them?

I am using GIMP.

What do you think are the circled structures in the background and on the far right side of the diplomacy landscape? I am looking at a much clearer version of the hive diplomacy landscape.
