there were two. the first was dropped and taken up by widowmakers.
there's serious copyright problems, which i think is why it has dropped off the radar.

yeah...i would move forward with yours, but contact mrbenn to make sure he's not working on it anymore.
also, read his thread to find any problems that you'd want to work around.

thanks, his looks confusing too. I think standard maps are the order of the day here anyway.

well, it would take a long time, and I'm no expert at making maps. It was just an idea... you come from London Jake?

throw in a couple of bridges and a few "boat/train/plane rides" and it would be sorted, the only thing that needs to be done is opening the map up a little (with ways i previously mentioned) and it would be game ready (im guessing youd want to pretty it up some tho :P)

i like it, i dont think you could play with 8players on it though, maybe 4 would be better...i think that people from England lke it more because we can relate to it > if you know what i mean... :lol:

Anything along the style of the NYC map currently in the foundry would be perfect I think. That map is as busy as any map of the city should be!

OK like the map

make the river have 2 bridges but otherwise be impassable.
put a station in all sections and link them
