EPIC Maps Building Contest - $25 Prize!

[Sir Heroscape]

After 1.5hrs of a Livestream musing about all the awesome maps...we HAVE A WINNER!!!

A Land in Eight Hours by Cleon



Congratz! $25 Prize coming your way @Cleon

It was an insanely close run between Cleon's map and Shurrig's Valhalla...so close I'll give @Shurrig a conciliatory $5 prize for 2nd haha...I really loved both maps, but Cleon's edged out Valhalla just barely.

For those curious...the 3 main criteria I was going for were:
- Terrain cohesiveness/use
- Scenario
- Eye-popping factor

Both finalists tied on the terrain cohesiveness with Shurrig edging Cleon on Scenario setup and Cleon edging Shurrig on eye-popping factor. At the end of the day, I felt the scenario of Cleon's was good enough and that the eye-popping factor had a bit more weight in my mind. Again Congratz and thanks to all who participated! If you're interested in seeing the full process, feel free to rewatch the whole livestream!

Thanks!

Excellent map Cleon! That map is truly spectacular, that castle may be one of the coolest I've ever seen on a heroscape board. I can't wait to see the IRL pictures/videos of it!!

What a fantastic contest idea! I only wish I had managed to carve out enough time to conjure up a submission. The talent on display here is nothing short of extraordinary, and the designs are a testament to the seemingly limitless creativity of this community. A well-deserved round of applause goes out to @Cleon , who has crafted a truly epic board. Now, it's time to grab a measuring tape and see if any of my tables are any match for the grandeur of this map.
