make us some maps
I mean YOU!
You make us some maps. Yeah, you. The one reading this.
get map images from
A) the Dom3 map generator
B) the old Dom2 DomMap generator
C) other games
D) other map generators
E) satellite images
F) fantasy books
G) draw one
H) grab some that get offered once in awhile at Dom2Minions.com or Dom3Minions.com then add personal touches to it.
use the map editor in Dom3 to do some of the work, and then edit the .map file for special changes. Its plain text and can be opened in any word processor such as NotePad.
Some uses for the special map commands are...
A) create planned provinces where the magic sites, indept race, structures, etc are all defined and logical
B) create commanders with units and equipment then position them
C) create AIs with starting prov, castle type, god, units, researched spells, etc
D) any of the above but done by a program which does it on random rolls
E) manually create "yourself" as an AI nation with your favorite god and items and spells. Then play against "yourself". This could be saved as a seperate file which you can then add to any map you feel like playing against yourself on (if it really kicks tail then upload it so we can use it also)
