Knights

[Gilligan]

The sad thing is, there may be a copyright on Rudolph, but the one on the "eight tiny reindeer" has likely expired.

As far as the Halloween one goes, I'm not sure what you have at the centre of the movement legend.

I do applaud the effort to provide seasonal variants of the map.

Thanks guys, here is the next draft for Halloween with the small one included. Keep the suggestions coming as it can only make things better.

Last one. Easter.

Christmas

Halloween.


Now lets hear comments and suggestions.

Easter's cute. All looking good... except some of those pumpkins...

[koontz1973]

Christmas is finished unless someone spots something.
Easter has some ducks added to it down the sides, but in no hurry to post it.
Halloween has a zombie instead of the witch with the wording changed to be the same as the others. Pumpkins are bad and will work on them but suggested something which we will see if it is taken up or not.

I am trying to get the eyes of the pumpkins to glow so they do need far more work.

Shouldn't you do a Hannukah one called Eight Crazy Knights?

[koontz1973]

If there is a call for one, then I can do one. Out of all the maps, this one is proving the most fun to play with. But can you suggest icons for me. Top/bottom battlements and shield/bonus squares.

[ender516]

Well, I suggested it mostly for the pun in the title, playing on the title of Adam Sandler's movie. But you could use menorrahs for the top and bottom, and dreidels for the bonus squares.

[x-raider]

Great idea ender. Maybe the bonus squares can be different i.e: dreidels (spinning tops), gelt (coins) and latkes (potato pancakes). ...Or it could be multi-colorued dreidels. The festival of Chanukah this year, will be 8-16 December.

[koontz1973]

Eight Crazy Knights for the title.
Symbols from the dreidel top and bottom is OK.
Gelt coins for the bonuses.


If this carries on, lack will be uploading a new version every month.

Doubt this would ever get permission to go forward as it really is religious and before you all say Christmas and Easter are religious holidays, they are less so now and are not as contentious with some players. But for those of you who wanted it, here is a very rough version.

Your reasoning Christmas and Easter are less religious holidays that Hannukah is utterly absurd. I do think the maps are great though, and also I don't think you should hold back for "religious" reasons, it's not offensive.

[kmhebert]

I wanted to also just say the objective "My work is done, why wait?" is not descriptive and kind of weird.

Walpurgisnacht would make for an interesting map

[koontz1973]

I am sure a map can be done for every holiday, the 8 crazy nights one was a joke for gilligan and will not go into play.

Well, I liked the Hanukkah one and I certainly can't see how anyone would be offended. Great map in general, enjoying very much on Fog Trench 1 v 1.
