And, even if it was, 'Shattered Isle' more than corrects that issue because it's focused completely on Eire, so Ireland actually ends-up being one of the MORE detailed areas of the game. Ironic for a land that Moorcock never mentions in the Hawkmoon saga!
You got me Lawrence that was a plant of sorts. A tiny bit underhanded I admit. I wanted to see if there was any interest in a possible review of the Shattered Isle. The fact that that you zero right in on this point of my review and your comments about the need for more detail on Tragic Millennium Europe bode well for your version of the game.
