I've been a bit busy, with a hectic real life at the moment, some unexpected and unfortunate things have arose, which are taking time to deal with. It will be nice to get back to the Foundry, to get my mind off a number of things.


As for the map, lets take a look at the latest images with XML on both the large and the small, along with links to both normal map images and the XML.

the borders in the plains vary in thickness because the grass or wheat overlaps some of the borders, which lie on the ground.

could you add some bunnies in the plains and some frogs in the swamp?
i feel the ducks are sad for being alone.

PS: i'm not joking, it would be a nice addition, plus you got nothing else to do on the map.

well if you noticed, the lake is rather full, and the river overflows its banks in some areas, this means that the map was made during or shortly after the rainy season. which explains why the wheat is especially tall. in some places the wind blows the wheat over the borders more, which might explain why it appears not to touch some places. however i assure you that on the ground the borders do touch.

bunnies would not be able to be see about the wheat in the plains. and the swamp is largely uninhabitable for amphibians due to run off from the putrid moat water. however this is already a frog in there, about 3mm south west of the swamp 5 shield.

there could be mutant rabbits due to the "run off from the putrid moat water" :twisted:

and mutant rabbits are big, thus very visible.

the middle ages time period wouldn't allow for the type material that would mutate a rabbit. probably just kill them.

My dorm plays this map almost every night right now (we even did a game with 12 people... That was interesting...) so I'm not complaining to much, but I'm looking forward to having it on the site too.

For those wondering, some people at my dorm (myself included) are kinda games workshop nerds, and play a lot of war hammer and other games they make and are kind of used to painting our own pieces for things. So our risk battle royale games actually work on paper because a lot of us have our own painted risk armies.

If I ever get a hold of a camera I might post what my risk armies look like. I use the Risk 2210 armies with a metallic silver paint and black stripes where it looks good. :oops:

Andy Please don't make us repost all the pictures, the only change is that an army number was moved 1 pixel over to the right in West Ward 1 for the small map. The xml link hasn't even changed.

Those are ducks, and I have no idea where they came from.

I think I'll give the map one more day, but I think things are surely wrapping up nicely. Great job on a fantastic looking map!

              Quenching


The Final Forge period has concluded for the Siege! Map. All objections have had their time. The Foundry and I hereby brand this map with the Foundry Brand. Let it be known that this map is now ready for live play (barring any Lack vetoes).

Conquer Club, enjoy!
