Has anyone ever suggested a heaven and Hell Map...

Perhaps based along the lines of Dante's inferno?






I can't find any really clean images but i will keep looking if it is interesting.

Yes, they have. I still think it should be done.

[jiminski]

Yeah i think it could be good too,
the imagination could run wild on quirky new attacking options..
hehe you could have a God-Spot which could bombard any territory and Demon or angel territories; who could steel or redeem souls in limited catchment areas

who knows!

Indeed, the possibilities are endless.

I don;t know exactly how you would do it but it seems almost made for 8 man games.

doesnt appeal

[jiminski]

I know what you mean... but attacks would be to every adjacent spot.. and perhaps you could have a 'pitcher territory' in the diamond who has to pass troops to your 'hitter territory' who can then Bombard any territory.

not quite certain how the large pink territories would work.

anyway .. just random ideas.

i was think that we could do a corellian conquest board to give the star wars realms that aren't seen in the movies some credit for existence. i already made a map for this and could post it so that you could use. I mean if it's fine with you, because i really have a dream for creating risk maps. and it might be cool to have my name in the corner.

[t-o-m]

go for it!

there may be copyright problems though that you would need to get sorted.

and map making process take a long time,

but other wise go for it, lets see what you got

centerpoint would have to be able to bombard

[NinjaArmy]

i'm going to split centerpoint in half between talus and tralus.

i checked in with my contact and he looked into it. today i got the results and the is no copyrights keeping me from making this map, even though there are copyrights on it, i cant be sued for making this map because of the extent of the copyrights

really? cause there was a star wars thread around here and somebody found something in the copyright, let me find it for u....

edit: here ya go viewtopic.php?f=63&t=29207&start=0

edit again: if there really is no way to get sued, then u should have told me this long ago, and we would probably have a bunch of cool star wars maps out

[NinjaArmy]

it isn't the full out star wars galaxy that you can use. i just had my contact look into the corellian system

[NinjaArmy]

we worked for ours and could not find a single copyright for the corellian system that could prevent us from making this map. the only thing that i must avoid is the title Star Wars.

can u use the nae 'Correlia' or 'Centerpoint'?

[NinjaArmy]

yep, like i said, the only thing i must avoid is the words star wars

[NinjaArmy]

ther was a copyright on the it in the books, and the entire archive on starwars.com is copywrited, but as long as i don't try to put advertisements on the map and dont use the words star wars, or try to sell the idea to anyone, or make a book out of it without consulting lucas arts first, im in the clear. there also was a copyright on the risk:star wars edition game, but sinc mine is nowhere like this, and doesn't mention the name risk, im fine in their department. I really had to dig to figure this stuff out, becuase copyright.com didnt have anything on the corellian system. Mainly, as long as the idea is non-proffet im fine(non-profit does not refer to the premium package, because not having premium does not prevent you from playing a game on this map(i really had to dig for this)).

P.S. this took a long time to type.
P.P.S.(P.S.S. is incorrect) can you help me out on this one?
P.P.P.S. yes i can also use centerpoint

A football field? A map for the world game. Also, cricket pitches can be technical, so gan golf courses. Thye could be good ones.

Also, we do have a China map, but what about one for the second most populated country? India?

A mind map? Could be one of the more unique ones.

Also, I saw Alexander's empire, is Genghis Khan's empire possible?
