I dont know if it has been thought of, but a Great Lakes map could be sweet, if made right.

I agree, that could be a good map.
Now if you made a map of Strong Badia and the surrounding areas (I don't know if the whole place has a name. Homestar Runner land? -probably not.
True true, the homestarrunner land would definitally work better than just strong badia. Continents could be:
Strong Badia
Bub's Concession Stand
The Stick
King of Town Castle
Strong bad's house
CoachZ locker room/football field
Maybe a few others...
I haven't made a map yet, but if I was, then Cramill, how did you get that screenshot from the homestarr flash website? Permission would be good, they seem like cool enough guys.

Its not a screenshot I took, I got it from the Homestar Runner Wiki: http://www.hrwiki.org/index.php/Main_Page

I just had a wacky and perhaps useless idea for a map-
create the map like normal but add tons more army shadows than actually needed and place fake numbers on them, all 3's. Then when you're playing the game it would be very difficult to tell who actually owned which territories- it would almost be like a default war fog. Also, it could give an additional strategy because leaving 3's on your countries would help them to blend in and not be noticed as readily. Of course greasemonkey would eliminate most difficulties posed by this map, but I still think it would be interesting.

Ah! That's the word I was looking for....
However stupid this seems, I think someone should do a map of Fairytopia.. As I think about it, it would be a very stupid idea.. Don't worry about it.
But has anyone read the series ofTerry Goodkind called 'The Sword of Truth'? It has an excellent map.. But then again with the copyright and everything. But it's a good map.
If people are interested, I'll scan the map and put it down, as I think there isn't a map on the internet, maybe.
