Don't judge a map by it's cover, read the scenario!

Real life Pics of the map can be found in my Battle Report (http://www.heroscapers.com/community/showthread.php?p=10772#11844).

[edit] I've sucessfully extracted this zip with windows "compressed folder" utility and 7-zip (http://www.7-zip.org).
Not that I'd tell you what software to use, but 7-zip really is the best decompression utility out there.

.sol and PDF included in the zip.

I'm having some trouble with the zip file. I cant extract the pdf.

How may sets did you use?

I'm having some trouble with the zip file. I cant extract the pdf. :shrug: WFM using 7-zip (www.7zip.org).

[Ch1can0]

i would like to check the map, but i have the same probs. I can open the archive and see the files, but i can´t extract them.

Bye, Chicano.

Shakey,
From my first look at your map, I like it! Non symmetrical, and it brings armies into each other - that's my kind of map.

[shakey_snake]

alright zip-problem guys, try again.

[Oprime]

Looks cool Shake

I too can't unzip it, Message= "unknown compression method, file skipped".

[Jandars_Hope]

Nice map, shakey! I like all of the bridges you have put in it!

[Oprime]

This looks great.
I often have 3 players and have a tough time creating a game.
I will definately be playing this one.

Thanks for sharing.

[CornPuff]

Its maps like these that make me want to buy more master sets. I really like the rules you wrote for how Raelin follows her rescuer.
Great job

[gibberish_47]

DANG!! I'm so building that map. I have 4 MS, 3 RttFF, and 2 VW right now. :D

[marshalllawless]

Thanks for sharing, Shakey. This is a great playing environment (and I had no trouble downloading your pdf).

[shakey_snake]

Thanks for the great feedback guys, lots of lovin' went into creating that map and landscaping it.

*bump*
new map (http://www.heroscapers.com/community/showthread.php?p=11936#13125).

[Jandars_Hope]

Your new maps, shakey, are really cool. I particularly like the Magma Mountain!

[shakey_snake]

JH,
Fireline Island is a "one each" map because you requested some.

[Ch1can0]

Hi shakey_snake,

now i could check both maps, interesting scenario ideas in there! http://home.arcor.de/fellechner/smilies/jo.gif

Magma Mountain: Upsidedown 3 hextile as boat, nice idea. Where'd you get that ? http://home.arcor.de/fellechner/smilies/megagrins.gif

Firleline Island: Who rolls mimring´s attack? If you rolled "right" for example with the d20, which of both possible firelines on mimring´s right side do you mean?

Bye, Chicano.

Hi shakey_snake,

Bye, Chicano.Either player rolls attack, it doesn't matter.
We've always played that mimring firelines down both hexes when attacking either side. I guess we've been playing it wrong.

For the scenario, use both.

[Ch1can0]

We've always played that mimring firelines down both hexes when attacking either side. I guess we've been playing it wrong.
Yep. Mimring must have been ruling a lot with his double fireline... :lol:

Yep. Mimring must have been ruling a lot with his double fireline... :lol:It really doesn't make that much of a difference, believe it or not.

[Ch1can0]

ok, i believe it or not.

btw, how you know, then you always played wrong... :P :wink:

[shakey_snake]

I Played him correctly this morning.

[Ch1can0]

ok, that´s an argument. You´re right, firing over 8 hexes or 16 should be pretty much the same. http://home.arcor.de/fellechner/smilies/ickwerd.gif =)

[shakey_snake]

It makes a difference, just not that much of a one.
Mimring's opponent still isn't going to line up their pieces.

[Ch1can0]

it just should be written in the scenario text as a special rule.

Smart use of tiles imo, shakey_snake and some nice ideas to gain high levels. To make such a map with so limited amount of sets is quite difficult, good job.

Looks a bit like a formula 1 race track, i like the extravagant shape of this map. :D

Bye, Chicano.

[Agent Minivann]

I just took a look at the solidscape of magma mountain. Nice work. I really like the lava fields on top of the 24 hex "plateau".

[Zombie Hoard]

I like the fireline island and how it takes a while to get there and you dont instantly get hight. :D
