This map is stunning!
This map is stunning!
Great Map
This is an amazing map! Where did you get it? You didn't draw this yourself surely. Already I like the game just because the board is quite appealing.
Map
I have to admit I found it doing a google image search, just to use in the prototype. However, it's supposed to be a 16th Century engraving of the city of limerick in ireland, so if it's the real thing the copyright will have long expired.
I can't find the original link, but this site has a smaller version of the image I used:

More Info
In fact, after a bit of investigation I found this page:
http://www.askaboutireland.ie/show_asset.do?asset_id=6580&version=text_only
Which says that the map is from and 1820 edition of Thomas Stafford's Pacata Hibernia, based on an earlier map, copied in 1587 by Francis Condell of Dublin. So I think I'm save in saying that the copyright will have expired and the image should be in the public domain.
