WIP: Community Atlas Competition, The Lost temple of Ankun-za
Hi Folks,
Here is my WIP of the 1st level of this temple in the Kaballa Ruins of the Shifting Sands Region. I'm leaving it open for future mappers (myself included). Who knows it may become another mega-dungeon. You can never have enough of those!
This level is based on a Watabou Random Dungeon
Thoughts, comments and critiques welcome as always.

Community Atlas - Blackrock WIP
Hi All,
Finally making progress on this map. And I figured out waht the issue was with the cliff lines showing through, my grass cover was too low in the sheet order!
I reckon it's about done, perhaps just add a scale bar.
Is there anyway to edit the Index to remove the grid references or will that stuff up the hyperlink?

Hi Folks,
I think I'm done. So there is the 4 dungeon maps, the city map, the below regional map and an excerpt of the main map (which unfortunately I can't post due to a NDA). Phew! I'm glad that's done.
Can I just say, and I'm not being a brown nose, how much I like this software. Despite the frustration when something doesn't turn out how I want, or the minor peculiarities with my setup, it is sensational. I can only imagine that those of you with more experience, would get these maps done in 1/2 the time or less than it takes me. But I will get there! If only reading 'text' books didn't put me to sleep...
Anyhow, here is the last map, unless there are obvious flaws I'm calling it done - subject to client approval.

Hi Folks,
Experimented with various things for the farmalnd for a couple of hours tonight as wells ass modifying the dock area.
I think I'll stick with bushes for the borders and coloured terrain fills like the attached...I'll probably adjust the scaling on the Symbols Along (ESC) dialogue for slightly less variation.
I'm 'working' from home tomorrow & Tuesday (our guys are having a picnic day and then a rostered day off, there's not much point in driving 45 minutes each way to be bored witless for 8 hours...) so I should be able to knock this over reasonably quickly tomorrow.
