VIKING SETTLEMENTS

Post by eagleblade »

IM DESPERATE FOR ANY IDEAS OR SUGGESTIONS
and thennobodies only reason why it stopped was ive been out of the city lately


I've been hearing from some people that my map is similar to NORDIC COUNTRIES MAP. I will state my reasons why it is NOT:
-that map is based on the modern borders, this map is based on the 800-1140 borders
-my map has other territories such as NW europe, and the eastern rivers, greenland, Vinland
-my map includes the baltic countries (Livonian brothers of the sword)

sorry i wrote the wrong age (that was my first map) i fixed this now :)
version 1.4 will have more editing with the borders perhaps thicker and more neat

-this is one of the many versions of this map i have as drafts, however here is some quick info
-each colour is a bonus
-in each region there will be one port and all ports are connected
-grey is impassible

version 1.3

Have you uploaded your map image to a hosting website, like photobucket or imageshack? If you have, you can get the URL and use the BBcode [img ] [/img] tags to display your map.

Use [BigImg] tags in your first post. ;)

In this way :

Code: Select all

And maybe add some comments (and territories bonuses on the map) to explain us how the maps will play, it will help people to start to give you some advice.

It would appear that development of this map has stalled. If the mapmaker wants to continue with the map, then one of the Foundry Moderators will be able to help put the thread back into the Foundry system, after an update has been made. ;-)
