It doesn't exist, but I like the idea myself. It can't be easily integrated into random maps, though, but it could work in player-made maps with some creative drawing.

Indeed, custom maps was what I was thinking. I for one promise that I would try to put it into best possible use if it is allowed.

I would use it as well if it were available...

You could have heaven and hell team games.

Hell... terrain that requires heat and/or fire protection 100 to enter?

Heaven... terrain requiring flight and/or etherealness?

Well, I remember IW adding an Inferno battle background.

There's also Hel. It's in Helheim.

Yeah but Hel's a pretty cold place ainnit?

You could duplicate a small map 3 times and stack them on one image. Then run two thru a global effect. Such as making the upper map lighter colored across the whole thing, and the lowest own darkened. And you could easily make changes to them both but Im not sure what would allow for a fair game. Maybe make the lower realm higher in resources, the middle one higher in population, and the higher realm higher in magic sites. If you made everyone start in the middle realm then it shouldnt be imbalancing

If the map you started with was numbered exactly even such as 1-100 provinces then could renumber easily by making them 101-200 and 201-300 and hopefully the game will keep them lined up that way. Then all you would have to do is work out the locations to link in order to get from one map to the other. (or make everyone rush for transport spells)
