Crows are shy.  Our cities won't light up on the map.

I just think people are getting all bent out of shape over nothing.  Sure Consone is big, but so are others.  Plus it's a peaceful environment.  There will always be the occasional player v player skirmishes, happens everywhere, but no one that I am aware of is contemplating a genuine war, or other pattern of aggression, against anyone.  Just as I am sure that Crow(s) aren't either.  The fact that there are lots of people of a similar mind in a group does not make them a war mongering grp.  It might make them a better defensive grp, but most Illy citizens want to avoid a full out conflict, the consequences would be too devastating in game terms.

Originally I was doing those images using photoshop and I merged images from Illyriad strategic map. It is easy and quite fast but not "autoupdated". Now I looked how it is done in Illyriad strategic map itself and it is quite cool.

Illy is creating for every alliance 3 png images with green, red and blue dots for towns and sov (probably daily or even more often). So using simple html and alliance id numbers (visible in alliance profile url) you can combine any number of alliances and red/green/blue colors together.

So that means auto-updated Consone map would be:

For auto-updated crows map (I took numbers from Crow alliance profile) you can create html file with content like this:
<img src="http://cdn5.illyriad.com/img/strategic/regions.jpg" style="position: absolute; top: 0px; left: 0px; ">

<img src="http://elgea.illyriad.co.uk/Content/img/strategic/alliances/red-1.png" style="position: absolute; top: 0px; left: 0px; ">

opening that in browser will create something like this:

it has crow confed green and H? red...

are you sure you got us all?  there should be 8 crow alliances.

Edit:  I think you missed Eight-Handed Crow (eCrow).  We're looking a little sparse in southern Laoshin.

 Thumbs Up Thanks for info.  Illy should visually support the concept of "alliance clusters", where each alliance is confederated with all others.

I got info from Crow alliance page - there is eCrow missing and instead KCrow there is CCrow.
If you say 8 I guess I got them all now and cr0ws [cr0w] is not part of?

Taking source code from this page you can easy make your own if you for example don't like colors selected or want to have other alliances there... It has php extension only because I will later today add there also some numbers but it is just html for now.

Thx Mogul, awesome.  Also, I am so glad someone else does these, I am hopeless at anything with a bracket around it, so I am grateful that you have the time and expertise to create these.  Thanks very much for the information and the effort Clap

I do enjoy looking at the most recent/fancy/complicated map.  I just wish the devs had picked colors that were easier on the eyes (especially that blue, since the contrast against the background is also less impressive than the other two).

Also, out of curiosity, why is VICX not displayed by default?  I assume it has something to do with their status regarding Consone?

Vicx isn't in Consone, Darmon. Smile That map is for Consone alliances only.

Victrix had been in Consone at the beginning, but decided to return to their former diplomatic status shortly after.

They are still confederated with most Consone alliances, but are independent from our intern structures.

And greatest respect to Mogul (once again) for this great map compilations Clap

Ah, okay.  Thanks for clearing that up Arian and Hora.  Was just confused because the checkbox is still there on http://www.puzzleslogic.com/illy/illy_large_confeds.php" rel="nofollow - this map.  I guess its off by default though because its more of an "it's complicated."
