Map: New Map - AomOrc

[Ballbarian]

I am not trying to turn this thread into an AAR, but thought I would share the general feel that this map imparts. The large grouping of swampland and wastes has created some interesting choices in strategy and unit training from the way that I normally play.

Several turns later, I have held my defensive position with some loss of ground, but my gem income is very respectable (and this is on difficult research and low magic site frequency). After repelling a large attack from Machaka in the north, my armies there are now on the offensive. In the south, my swamp force is on the move for a trial run. It consists of bogbeasts and hydra's led by beefed up hydra tamers. Everybody is poison immune and feeling very gassy.

Here is a screen:

I wonder how it looks on Dom 3...

Where did you get those flags?

[Ballbarian]

I made them a couple of years ago by editing some images from Unwise and Jurri's flag mods and my own stuff. Intended to upload them with a nation gui/background set, but I was never happy with the gui. I have been using it so long that I do not even think about it anymore. If there is some interest, I guess I could go ahead and upload the flags mod.
Here is a sampler that I threw together:



1rst row (left to right):
Marignon, Caelum, Atlantis, Ermor, Arcos, Ctis, Man

2nd row:
Jotun, Machaka, Pangaea, Pythium, Mictlan, Ulm, Vanheim

3rd row:
Rlyeh, Abysia, Tienchi

Looks nice. I'd like to use those.

[Ballbarian]

Thanks. I uploaded the flag mod here.

I wonder too. If any beta tester is actually using this map in Dom3, feel free to post a screen. The way Gandalf was talking, there is a mod command to resize the icons so I assume it may look rather odd in default Dom3?
