Oh ok. Depending on how things go you may want to create some later on. Also what are we gonna call this world?

I already made a name up, to speed up the process. Its called "Khandor", so yeah.

EDIT: Ultimuh, you mark where you want the action to take place. Then I draw it in, using my art skillz

Uhm.. that's not his.. Pretty map?

I used the basic, because im using the basic. DO NOT QUESTION ME PEASANT.

Alright.. Should I PM the map or post it via an image host?

Just post it via image host.

I would suggest putting Khandor somewhere in the title.

Okay, here is my turn. On the island in the middle: raise the island up out of the ocean, so there are sheer sided cliffs on all sides. I'm not sure how big the island is, so also cover it in forest. That's 6 points, so with the last two of mine I'm going to make it a jungle.

A mighty hand (catastrophe, a meteor/asteroid) crashed down from the heavens, piercing the earth scarring it with a massive hole (crater).

(Marked with an X, you said you would draw it there?)

(AGH ye ninja!)

[Bdthemag]

Yes, but since Ultimuh has the first turn. His action happens first, and then the island is raised with a forest. Meaning there will be two seperate islands :3

[Theodolus]

Well, yours will come first... and I think I need to spoiler that for size... so basically there will be an island raised up out of the ocean with a big crater in the middle of it, ringed by forests....

edit: I guess there could be two islands as well. i was thinking something like this:

Sounds good to me.

Hey guys, I've found the solution to the map woes. Check this out: http://www.inkwellideas.com/roleplaying_tools/hexographer/

Hexographer can make a labeled Hex grid, so, if you change the output of actions from whatever inches to one hex this makes things a little easier. The GM would have to have a saved hexograph file to edit each time, and then export an image file, and upload to online for everyone to view. But it would make the maps much more cleaner, and easier for those playing to say 'I want to create a desert in 11.12, 11.13, 11.14, 10.13' etc.

Example blank, but labeled map I uploaded(mega huge one, probably should make smaller for one of these actual games):

You're are a little late...


Also in my opinion I've used Hexographer before and while useful, the free version is difficult to use when portraying the more creative terrain ideas.

[Bdthemag]

I prefer if player's just try to label an area roughly the size of an inch, but I appreciate your find anyways.

[Haika]

ok then... well figured I'd offer it up. Struggling trying to decide if I want to start up another forum game that will probably die because I have too much to do. ><

Well I have ALOT of free time, im in 3 mafia games, and running 1 RTD along with this game. I have no life 

[Furtuka]

Well there are three games now.   And so history repeats itself...
