Re: Opinions Wanted
also in the area of "new rooms" consider map making and the idea of provinces built along a theme. What if the province named "Dragons Defense" was actually that? Maybe a long narrow province running between two mountain lines that create a bottleneck on the map?
Hmmm Maybe a lich leading a bunch of mages. Only when you attack do you discover its an undead dragon leading red, blue. green dragons. What kindof equipment would make sense for that leader to have? What kindof population and recruitable units would make sense? What kindof magic sites?
And thats just one province. What about a province designed around the idea of demons? or stone? or poison? or water? or ethereal? or undead? What about a special island? or a particularly nasty cave? or a floating castle?
If we dont have them its only because no one has made it yet.
