Rebuilt center.



Smaller footprint.



Through the alien looking glass.





No Evergreens.

Random side note, but that gate looks familiar. What is it from?

The Gate. It has no significance, other than what is given during a particular scenario.

The kids and I have been working on a map ... I'll try to get some pics up soon.

Ah, I see. My bad. Guess I've just seen it around the site a lot.

Additional map changes to Escape Though Endor! Now a path exists around the Trees on the outside edge of the map. Also raised the level of the Great Evergreens. So we've gone from this

to this

to this.

A free builder is one who constructs a map from scratch, actually anyone who builds without reference to an existing Virtualscape map or other pre-recorded map intended for "casual" play..

Forgot all about posting a link here for you to check out my recent epic free build city map. I had a general idea of the layout but then once you start putting it all together is takes on a life of it's own.

Wow! Lots of cool custom terrain. +Rep from little ol' me!

From earlier:

Since then, to this

[I love the way Battlements look, but they can really inhibit the use of larger sculpts. Here, I've created a more or less consistent pattern for their use, while removing most of them (just removed additional ones from adjacent to the ladders.]

New map up:

Isle of the Dragon!

I made this map for a 2v2 Superscape battle we'll be playing later today-

That is a pretty nice looking map BC. You going to let figures start the game on the road tiles?

Yea, that's what I was thinking. The back row of level 1 road tiles, most likely, unless there's an overflow (which isn't likely, considering that we're only going to be playing 1200 per player, and Robin is the lowest-costed I have )
