Default Re: Big Map for Big Boys!

Thanks for the comments. I am looking forward to playing on the map in a big game. It would be fun to see Late Marignon, Midgard and Atlantis duke it out sailing around the ocean! Abysia and the Giants could have fun in the mountains, while Agartha has a lot of caves to dominate.

Ryo_akashi: Thanks. Yeah, the cities are sort of like a high-up google map views of the cities. You can see the individual buildings.

Zylithan: I did not keep good track of my time. I would guess that it took about 20 hours to draw the map, but that included making several changes to the initial draft. Drawing the borders took a lot of time, and I wanted to scream when placing the little white dots in each province. The original GIMP file is high resolution, so the white dots were very small, and they blended in with the light green map. I scaled the rgb file down a bit so that it would not be too big megabyte-wise.
