Default Maps available

There are two new maps made by Tiltowait available on the Illwinter site.

If some of you have made maps, send them over and we will put them up as well.

I believe there was some talk about a remade Old World map from Dom I. Was it ever finished ?

First off, thanks for Tiltowait for making some new maps!

And thanks to Illwinter for hosting!

And now~ Ringworld??? That's just crazy. You can't go around a ringworld on foot in Dominions timeframe!!!

...that said... it will definitely be the next map I play

The Ringworld map is great, playing it just now. Very different from all the other maps, since one can only expand horizontally. I like it.

Default Re: Maps available

the new maps look great! can't wait to finish my current game and then try the ringworld.

is anybody out there already making a Middleearth map? I was playing around with the editor, but it's hard to find good tolkien-maps to start with.

Glad people like the maps, I drew em all from scratch

They both change game play a bit due to numerous bottlenecks, but there should allways be choices of direction to expand.

I can get to work on another map, if anyone has any requests?

Excellent work.

Hard to do fairly for multiplay but very desireable for solo play. Thank you.

Would it be OK if I used one for randomized .maps? Or would you like to get together with me and design a randomizer. I will include it at my site.

Or if you could create a large map where no-one can get pinned down by an especially nasty province then let me use it as a base for lost of different random scenarios.

There is a thread here somewhere of maps we wish people would do or something like that.

Something with an underground cave system. One third (or something like that) of the provinces would be underground, with just a few places where the caves reach the surface. It's a thought Might be a bit confusing though...
