We don't get tired of hearing it, trust me.

An interesting thing that RanDom will also allow is to run a map with multiple color sets. So you can do a fancy map for a web page of a long running game, and one thats abit more bare for actual play (easier on the eyes). Even one thats just borders and try to color it in for who has what province as the game progresses.

To reiterate what I said in the Thuggity Thug thread when people asked about the Faerun map, the first Dom3 version is fairly well along the way. Province borders were finished yesterday, now all that needs be done is place the white dots, do terrain assignment in the map editor and then add special provinces and it'll be ready to roll. Give me two or three weeks and it'll be done, after which I can get to work on a smaller version. This one is going to have 500+ provinces at a guesstimate.

That's great! I'm not so much about new mod nations, but I really enjoy poking through new maps, and I enjoyed the Forgotten Realms gold box games from a couple of decades ago.

I'm going to have to look into releasing the map with no specials soon, there's so many things to do now that I will not be able to finish making the specials in any kind of timely fashion.

Thanks for reminding me.

Edi have you used the province editor Ballbarian put out? Makes special provinces REAL easy after a slight learning curve. Much less worry about format, can concentrate on content much more. Would still have to hardcode locations of course, but everything else is pretty simple.
