imperial attack

by **blackraptor58** on Mon Mar 10, 2008 1:59 pm

i had an idea of a map that had two villages on the bottom corners and the whole top of the map is a caslte.

the players on the bottom of the map have to try and take over the caslte on the top.

the villagae would each have a catapult that would weaken the caslt so they could attack it easier.

this is just an idea and a rough drawing. i know it can be better

I didn't think that was strictly true actually... I believe there was a project to make a specific 2 player map somewhere...

thanxs for the help

i did draw a few examples of the map while i was at school had nothin else to do since i was done with the OGT. i would show it but it on paper and i don't know how to scan.

i got inkscape installed to the computer but it will take me a while to learn how to use it so please give me time to come up with a draft!

i don't get how people that use inkscape make cc maps all i can make is shapes.
how do u fill in the backround , and make all that stuff?

you guys should probably just abandon this idea because i have no clue hoe to fill in places with collor,or create texturand i have no clue how to use xml.

I tried the downloads on that page. I would just download gimp for starters, thats just as easy to use as ms paint.

Its not really that hard, all you really need to do(If you have to) is open MS paint(just the normal paint on your computer) and draw it, then use the fill bucket and fill it in, so we can just get a idea of it, then you can try to use "The" GIMP and put some more stuff on it.

Please don't abandon this just because that, map making is really fun once you get into it, just keep trying... Thats all you need to say and it might work.

Also you don't have to do the XML, i'm sure if you ask someone they will gladly do it. Maybe Lanyards or Yeti_c.

Good luck

Go to imageshack.us (photobucket works too, but Coleman can't see images hosted there). Make an account, then upload the picture you want from your Desktop.

Click on the little version of the picture, and it should show it full size, along with some codes on the bottom. Click No for Thumbnail Mode, then copy the code for Forum. It will probably look something like
