Wiz (I think) said a while back that they didn't focus on Britain in 1.12.
Finally you can add Iberia to the HRE without having to fight France over Provence.
Looks to me like monteferrat is either a vassal of or allied with Savoy
EDIT: Yep yep deffinitely a vassal/march (notice the liberty desire up top)

How would you justify that? At the time of start Navarra only really had its current province and a moderate chunk of the west of Bearn in-game. I can see it being a 2pm in the future when France and the rest of Iberia get some province changes but a 5 way split would consist of a bunch of super tiny and awkward provinces.
I hadn't thought of that... I know what type of game I'll play in the next patch, besides a ck2 and eu4 super Karling campaign.

I agree about the former- IMO Tortosa makes the most sense- but disagree about the latter: the region is defined historically by its lack of significant settlements, which is a big reason why it got its name which seems to be derived from the Arabic word for wilderness.
So I've been trying to figure out which nation I will play after the expansion. I want to go tall, which means choosing a smallish nation in the Western group not immediately in threat of being devoured, some expansion room but no need to form a giant empire. Venice is an obvious choice, but it's also too easy (and too similar to a Ragusa run I did a few versions ago). I considered Ireland, but that'll wait until a British map update.
Genoa is a very tempting option. The looming danger of France should keep it from being too easy, and there's plenty of room to build a small empire and go tall. It should be a fun alternative to the usual paint-the-Mediterranean play!

It won't, various devs have repeatedly said it was not the scope of these map changes.
As much as I would love this to be the case, Wiz has already said that the British Isles aren't receiving any changes this patch
This is a fantastic change, as Genoa was a pretty underpowered trade node, losing ducats to Sevilla and EC (via Champagne). It made Genoa pretty much useless in late game, which hurts the viability of Aragon and Italy. I wonder if Bordeaux flows to Genoa now, too.

By the looks of things, there's no connection between Genoa and Bordeaux. There's one to Sevilla (at least, I assume it's to Sevilla, Wiz could always have made Genoa an end node that's fed from Sevilla....), one from Champagne, one from Tunis and two from further East
Looking at this map, I think another playthrough in Italy with the goal of uniting it. The last time I did this was with 1.4 and its almost nonexistent AE. I've always wanted to redo that game and the new features, map, and cultures will make it much more fun.
People keep labeling the patch at 1.12, but Paradox said a while ago that this patch will not be savegame transferable. Doesn't that make it 2.0?

Starting to run out of map changes to tease with but here's a shot of the Western Med. Spot the differences!
that Monferrat is so green

Not really. Pretty much all patches so far were not savegame transferable.
I wanted to call it 2.0 but Johan didn't and he outranks me. (It's really not a big deal what number we use anyway)

Challenge his honor in a lightsaber duel. We will get this called 2.0 or you will die trying!
