Hi everyone! Sorry for the lateness of the hour, but it is indeed time to SHINE, so let's get to it!
I actually had it in my mind to show a different shiny when I was considering things yesterday, but I have to admit, you all convinced me that this should be today's shiny. I mean, between certain members of the community offering to eat certain items of clothing, if this was the shiny, and everyone's general enthusiasm for the topic, it was hard to say no.
Unfortunately, we ran into a hell of a bug just after lunch today, so actually getting these ready for the shiny took some doing. But, thanks to Caspian's efforts, the bug has been hunted and slain, and the images are ready!
So, without the typical long-winded story, I present to you your server maps, at the county zoom level. Minus, of course, the borders, the settlements, and the roads that link them. It's not DSS day yet, so let's leave a little to discover still, eh?
Now, these are really large images, even as jpgs, they're 30-40+ MB each, so if you want to download full size, then click the images below.
Here are you maps:
Enjoy, and stay shiny my friends!
edit: fixed the Map I link

Nice something to look at for the next 6 months
Just a lonely peasant on the road looking towards a distance future with the sweat on my back and a tear of cloth in my hand a family crest it must be. A adventure will i have, I dream of dreams my destiny awakens me.

Ohh so close to those county lines. Looking good. It's amazing how different this one looks to the last one.
So are the swamp and grasslands biomes still swapped when it comes to the water generation or what is wrong there?
Fancy! :D

Ah, yeah I understand the confusion. Let me officially say: Nothing is wrong there.
The maps only show water of a certain depth, so the marshes, which are mostly shallow, are only going to show a little water. You'll see more at the settlement zoom level, but they will generally appear to be dryer in this map style than they would with say, a satellite map.
The river and water networks you're seeing in the grasslands are intended, and are a result of the lay of the land there and a few other factors that aren't obvious in a map of this style. We don't show every change in altitude here, for example, just the localized and relatively strong ones, so it's harder to see that there are undulations in the terrain which form the natural basins and streams/rills/small rivers in the region. (and we also don't show things like springs which might feed them)
Hope that helps! :)

Algorithms, man. Algorithms. They are complicated.
