    I’ve started to play a simple and easy to understand roleplaying game with my two oldest children and of course no game can be really appreciated without a world map to look at. To accomplish this I made this map in CC3 using the April annual style made by Djekspek here on the forum. The style was easy to use and had a good variation of textures and symbols. Now i just need to print it before the next gaming day.

    This has to be one of the most beautiful maps that I have ever seen. Absolutely gorgious!!!!!
    This is a beautiful map that would look awsome framed and hung in a place of honor.

    Congratulations! I would only put the Rose inside the map (the "V" is crossing the border). Can you post a larger version Clercon? Or a link to a larger version?

    Beautiful work as always. Did you adjust sheet effects and/or drawing tools of the style, or is it a "out of the box" map?

    Great to hear you're playing with your kids. Bring up the next generation of roleplayers. :)

    Thanks Ralf, The map is an kind of "out of the box" map. The only things I changed was that I created a new sheet for the lava lands in the southeast corner, because first it was on the same sheet as the dessert, and then it didn't get the fade affect. So I just manually copied the settings from the dessert sheet (A copy and paste command in the sheets window would be great by the way) and made a new one for the lava. Also the city/village icons didn't end up on the symbols sheet, so I had to manually move them there. The labeling is also done in Photoshop (with the Tolkien font), mainly because for me I label so much quicker in Photoshop.

    The kids love to play by the way, so that is promising for the future :)

    Yes, the copy command for sheets and effects is on our wishlist, and high priority for me too. Double-checking all the parameters, especially with many effects on one sheet, can be a pain.

    I just double-checked the sheet-selection for the structure symbols, but I can't find any fault with it here.

    wow! What an excellent map. I love the flow. I really like the creative sea symbol usage you did to make the mountains pointed to seem like a gate on the south west side. Great job!
