That's a neat map.

What kind of provinces are in the clouds and underground?

Default Re: A new spectacular multi-layer map!! Wanna try?

in clouds mostly nothing special, the mountains are mountain and with the rainbow it's farm, and some multi magic sites

under earth it's all cave or cave/swamp, cave/mountain, cave/bordermountain.

I must admit I never played in a cave so I have no idea if this is not fun or unbalanced for a race (if so that race might be the race I put there instead of Niflheim... but comp on niflheim shouldn't go wrong that fast if I make a pretender for him.. and having a comp send niflgiants at me just seemed fun . If I can/or someone can implement that for me then another advantage I want to give is a few large cities surrounding their capital.. but that is for later And they shouldn't be TOO strong cus in 2 steps your on "earth" from up the mountain and you don't want them at your door in 2 steps if they have a huge advantage.
(but for that I want to place someone halfway up the mountain anyway.. and on the rainbow leading DIRECTLY down to earth.)

Ideally there would even be only specific races as independents in the clouds and the upper cloud and lowest underearth thingie might become nostart provs any way.. to give comp room to explore and some room between players and normal AI and those "AI" with advantage.

But that is for later cus I dun even know how to make it so you get a start up with 1 human, 1 fixed vanaheim, 1 fixed rýhel or whatevern and the fixed niflheim and then adding AI's if you want. --> if you know.. tell me.. if you can script it for me.. even better.

anyway .. plz play the map as it is Pasha? and let me know what you think.

Agartha in a cave = love
Also would work nicely for several undead or night-vision oriented races.

Would love to provide feedback, though I'm currently trying to get two games started. I am picking up a small amount of map modding and commands along the way. If someone doesn't get around to you immediately, I'll be along in a while. Probably Sunday this week or next.

I will say I'm extremely interested in playing on this map.

Thanks, I don't wanna screw up this map so I've started, and for graphics also finished a new one last 2-3 hours.. it actually looks much better since it doesn't use much "make-up" but just a few basic patterns which come with GIMP but which look better than just plan colors.

I did a wrap-aroudn cus demand seemed to be high for those.
I'll try to make the white dots tomorrow then I'll post it and try some things in the .MAP file for that one (I need less specific and difficult stuff for that one.

So: coming soon a
-wrap around
-mostly water!! (really should only play with water races)
map

Ow that reminds me it's VERY open now.. I need to use some seaweed as walls to create a few semi-choke points

I see 39 DOWNLOADS.. NICE

I'm sure none have finished those campaingns yet but early feedback is appreciated too... let me know anything you want to tell me or others about this map.

Don't be shy!!

My watermap will be nice to once finished, watch the forum

Lazy: Yeha I figured I'd get that answer, I've not yet played agartha but to make them one of the main villains in the map.. I dunno they just don't have the... how ever you call it to be main villains..

Vanaheimwith an AllFather on top of Olympus coming down to rule the world appeals to me. Niflheim coming from under the earth with huge giants and crushing anything in their path too.. if I place Agartha there it just isnt'the same...

I'm not sure if anyone else noticed but on the sorta middle layer (the normalish one) on one of the smaller islands over to the right side there are a few provinces that look like land provinces on the map but are in reality water provinces.
