Arya's Map of Persian Empire 2016-10-05

[Arya]

Hi this is the first time I post anything I made so please forgive me if I missed anything

This map was originally created for my Mod (Rise of Persians) but I uploaded it so anyone interested can use it.

The map was initially very accurate and was made using a satilite photo of the region though I changed the terrain to make it work better with my mod and the resources and starting locations are just randomized

Please let me know if you can think of changes that can make my map better.

Email: aryarasouli@yahoo.com

Map size: 180x150
original resources (randomized)
original civs (randomized starting locations)

enjoy!

looks nice, arya. i'll download this from home later. three questions:

- could you tell us, what are the map dimensions?
- also, was it made for conquests, with the new resources?
- finally, i noticed the start locations. has the map been tweaked with a certain number of civs and/or those specific locations in mind? if so, are you planning to release your mod for public consumption as well?


cheers

Sorry I already put the dimensions in the readme file but i forgot to put them in the thread the map size is 180x150
and yes it's made for conquest. unfortunately most of the Civs and resources in my mod don't exist in the original game so the editor just deleted them from the map so I randomized them using the default resources and Civs, but hopfully when my mod is finished you'll see my original map.
I'm really in need of persian units.

what sorts of units are you looking for? i'm no unit creator, but i've spent hours hunting around the archives and looking at all the great work done by creators here. there's a lot of undocumented and hard to find bits lying around. i might be able to offer some suggestions that, although not quite "right", might be a good short-term unit solution.

one thing i could suggest is downloading some of the mods and scenarios people have developed, either covering the whole epic time frame, or even focussed on one era, as the developers may have already collated some custom units that you might like. for example, Rhye's mod has a wonderful selection of flavour units for all eras that might be useful.

Greece is as big as asia minor, and a lot bigger than Italy. In other words: great map!

the colours look beautiful too
