You have right,Also I think that they would add more kingdoms because for example Irollan,Holy Empire and Greimheim are too small!They would add a lot more kingdoms evidently!

Wow, this is awesome.
"Some fans hence speculated the map was represenative of Ashan post-Dark Messiah - the evil ending of this game featured a large-scale burst of power localised at Stonehelm."
Love the little conspiracy theory.

At first sight the beta map looks better - more variety from geographical point of view, but gamewise is not. The distances are too big and most of the factions would’ve been disconnected from each other. Just look the distance between Irollan and Silver cities or Haresh not to mention Hashima. The official map also offers big distances but somehow is more compact. Both official and beta maps suffers from same bad design i.e. almost every faction own specific piece of land and the only exception is Stronghold as we can find them in Pao Islands, Sahaar desert, Ranaar and some other places. I prefer all factions dispersed over the land – different kingdoms/states from one faction (race) placed at different locations. This way we would have more interactions between factions (or one faction), more plots for the lore and so on. Looking at the official map we have one big empire and all others gravitate around it. Nothing can happen without Haven being involved. At big scale nothing’s changed for 9 centuries only some border wars. IMO the beta map would’ve worked only if the factions had been scattered in different states across the islands (continents).
This is another version of the beta map

In beta Sheogh was called Kreegar? Is not reference to our friends from Eeofol?
