Ice Under the Bridge
DOWNLOAD An attempt at making a somewhat competitive map with a bridge over the middle of the map, and using my Very Slippery Ice mechanic. See Download page for details. My Custom Designs.

Re: Leaf_It's Maps, and Scenarios
At first glance I like it overall, but has a few things that make it more of a "fun" map than a competitive one...at least right now. A couple things I noticed right off the bat:
1. While the height on the edge is meant to be higher than the bridge to keep the bridge from being too strong, it ends up making a "your hill, my hill" scenario which will inevitable end up in some very un-fun games with Range vs melee or range vs range. It's significantly easier to go to your right and capture your side hill and just stay there waiting for your opponent to approach. 2. No glyphs. This hurts this map because it makes the camping positions on the hills even stronger. Strong glyphs on this map might help balance it because someone assaulting the hill will need it (maybe a +2 move or +1 defense). 3. The Bridge walls are "illegally" build. According to the rule book, all edges of a bridge wall need to be connected, and you've got one edge overhanging. Sir Heroscape's Content

Re: Leaf_It's Maps, and Scenarios
Very aesthetically pleasing, some tinkering with it ought to make it a nicely competitive map.

Re: Leaf_It's Maps, and Scenarios
I have updated the map. The image in the original post for the map has been updated to reflect the changes.

It's probably worth noting that you can reach the other player's start zone in 12 move thanks to Very Slippery Ice, so you could go rampage in there and ignore height if you wanted to. Quote:
This is the same as Walls needing a cap. It doesn't break anything like not giving room for the hive would. It's placed the way it is so that the bridge is more stable (because it's longer than the 5 hexes that the long bridge piece is made of) and if you don't do it that way, the trees next to it won't fit. Or to put it more simply, the only people who should care about this, are the same people that wouldn't play with walls that don't have a cap. My Custom Designs.

Re: Leaf_It's Maps, and Scenarios
Two more attempts to make competitive maps with just a single Dungeon set.
They aren't really competitively viable, because they are just too small, but I think this is about as close as you can get without using any other sets. My Custom Designs.

Re: Leaf_It's Maps, and Scenarios
I have been really fascinated by what can be made within the limitation of a single Dungeon Master set. With the terrain expansions, I have been able to increase the size of the maps significantly, so these ones might actually be tournament viable. I'm still working on a Road, and Castle Dungeon map. I hope others can find these maps as much fun to play on, as I have had making them. EDIT: And my first just 1 BftU Dungeon master set map Dungeon Stalagmites has been updated. After making all of these, I found it's layout uninteresting, and I made some relatively minor changes to make it potentially more enjoy able to play on. My Custom Designs.

Re: Leaf_It's Maps, and Scenarios
Love what you're doing with these 1BftU and 1BftU + Expansion. Really hard to make maps like that, but you're doing a good job. I think these maps - for the most part - are more "fun" maps (just because of how clogged they'd be for tournaments), but Crisp Winter Cave is actually my favorite and that looks open enough to be a strong tournament map. I'd say the same about Charred Dungeon because lava really helps free things up...but I think you'll need to remove those single molten lava's on the edge. Those really allow very little movement on the edges where people will try to skirt around.

Re: Leaf_It's Maps, and Scenarios
When you get a chance
@Leaf_It
would you mind updating the OP with all of your maps? It'll make it a lot easier to reference. I'm also looking forward to the changes we made on some of your maps we playtested when you were here...would love to see those versions up some time.

Re: Leaf_It's Maps, and Scenarios
I've got a few maps I've been meaning to post. The update to that map is one of them. I've been a bit busy this last week or two, but I'll try to get them uploaded tomorrow after work.

Re: Leaf_It's Maps, and Scenarios
Introducing 2 reworked maps:
Cave Near Marshland Cove DOWNLOAD Charred Dungeon DOWNLOAD And 3 NEW 1 Underdark master set maps: Crossroad at Dark DOWNLOAD Crevice Road DOWNLOAD Crumbling Dungeon DOWNLOAD But don't worry, but strange obsession with the Underdark Master set isn't over yet. I still need to make a Rise of the Valkyrie, Marvel, and Swamp maps using it. My Custom Designs.
