My 2nd picture map... took 3 solid days to create!

Forgive the tons of ocean... I forgot to scale the picture for the map and didnt notice until after I had put a ton of work into the file. I had no choice but to either recreate the map or leave the ocean in to prevent it from distorting the picture grossly. :cry:

I am quite proud of this one... hope you enjoy it!

ps. the minimap seen here doesnt do this map justice... its much nicer in the game (or so "I" think)

Thanks for the compliment... much appreciated. I hope you found the map challenging & worthwhile to play and I remain open to any critique that might aid me in improving future maps.

Although it might be hard to tell from the minimap preview, this one is a dragon map. Originally the map had a thief (harboring a dragon's egg) hidden under the nest but the limitations of the map palette made it impossible for me to pull enough detail out to make it intelligible so I ended up removing him.

I do have another dragon map or 2 planned for the future, just a matter of finding some time soon to do it with consideration for the other couple of maps I have planned. Hopefully within the next few weeks... fingers crossed.

Thanx again for your feedback. :)
