Battledawn - Mars

[Kane of Nod]

Anyone who plays Battledawn knows that we recently released the Mars servers. We had a professional artist go over a map of mars and Terra-form it to give mars oceans and such.

There might be legal issues with copyright, but I will speak with the artist and see if I can secure permission to turn this into a map. If so, someone please do it, the map would be very fun to play with risk. I know because it's already quite fun to play with Battledawn

The map is very high resolution and brilliantly detailed. Here is a thumbnail of the mini-map so you can see the structure of it.

Do you have any larger pictures as a preview?

I'm unaware of what Battledown is - but if there is interest - and you can get round the copyright - then this could go far...

Also - I suspect this will be moved to the Map Ideas forum...

As a note for nect time mate, all ideas go to the ideas sub forum

anyway the layout looks different and could been an intresting concept.

Dirty yeti fast post

I'm waiting for permission from the artist before I post a high resolution picture.

That's battledawn, a fairly popular online game, many players of whom also play this.

If this must be moved than fine, I was just trying to get the idea out there.

you will not require permission to simply post a high res image, theres no copyright issues there.

you are incorrect sir.

I don't mean that posting the image is whats bad. I don't want to get everyone's hopes up only to have us not able to use the map in the end.

As for the banner, I know I know, I try not to look at it. It's just the place that holds the link to the game for me. The forums and the actual game look great, the ads on the portal look like garbage.

It was the flashing one that I got... it was vicious!!!

[Kane of Nod]

I got permission.

Remember all credit to the map goes to BattleDawn. A Great game everyone should try out.

Here is a link without an annoying top banner ad, instead you get some pretty custom art from the artist

Here is the map:

It's not full res, to go in farther it is split up into tiles for the game to help load times. Thanks.

[yeti_c]

Hmmm - It could be a very interesting base image...

[kagetora]

[Herakilla]

i tried it but i find that it is fairly slow and not at all good with explanations of how to do anything and the whole thing is cluttered with unimportant things
