i've given up on flat top-down view and i'm going to attempt something really funky.

Looking forward to it.

Also, we have been debating some structural revamps to hide or eliminate a lot of the dead topics, but there is very much two sides to that issue...

i was looking towards it myself. isometric view sounded pretty well. so made the grid diagonal and started drawing. made the nice little roads left spaces for buildings and then i realized the map won't fit

i was getting a map that was 1100*700, and i can't make the little diamond shaped squares smaller because then the army numbers won't fit and basically i'm screwed

now i gotta go back to the top down view

i wasted an hour doing crap

don't know. i keep getting stuck on the graphics.
isometric is down. not possible because of the size issues.

now i'm torn between 3 alternatives

1. top down view where all you can see is rooftops (realistic)
2. top down view where streets and non important terits are normal but shops and subs are like icons. so you can actually see the store front instead of the roof.
3. something else.

i'm inclining towards something else

here's a new update.
V3 (it's actually v5 i think)

anyway i redid all the graphics done a few changes here and there. put the legend at the top and gave it a blueprint aspect.

now what do i have to do to get some stamps?

V4
i added terit names. removed the park, and that's about it.

the following terits will start as neutral:
mall - 15
manor - 15
arsonist - 5
subways - 3
shops - 3

each player will start with a home and the rest of the terits will be randomly divided.

what does a map maker do when he's bored and has no feedback? he starts adding eye candy.

so here's version 5 with eye candy

added a few folds and creases to create a 3d aspect to the blueprint
