Conquer Club

Hey... How about a little bighorn map? Sounds cool....

not really doable, if you want it historically accurate at all. the whole battle was just too chaotic to chart in any way linear enough to turn in to a battle map.

While choas makes mapping difficult, there's no reason that some semblance of the battle couldn't be represented...

I've found a couple of maps that could be used for inspiration:

i'm not slamming the idea, just as an amateur history buff i was saying that a historically accurate map wouldn't be very practical. if someone wants to run with the idea, they'll have to take a few creative liberties, but that's just fine by me.

Custers last stand where he fell & most of the 7th cav was mainly in one area. it could be done
