So true, Sir Heroscape! It's amazing what a simple can of spray paint can do.

It all looks great. You guys should see what @Grishnakh does with flocking and terrain feature creation!

yes, I absolutely love it. I've always wanted to do that, but it's a lot of effort, and I'm not sure when I'll ever get around to it. Definitely on my list of things to do though.

Flash, do me a favor? — list the five maps of yours that you think are the best standard tournament maps?
(And I'm going to tag @OEAO here, since I have a vague recollection that he somewhere else — perhaps in the WoS thread? — mentioned he had his own list of his favorite maps of yours.)

Honor v2 (see the version in the ScapeCon map book- the one in the OP is outdated)
Aeon
Battlefield 23
Ascension
Blackridge v2 (unposted- I may be biased here though)
Fairhaven
Frostmire
Origin (the best single-RotV I’ve played)
Venom
You can’t go wrong with any of these, imo. And there are at least five more of his maps that I really want to try but haven’t been able to get to yet!
Of the ones I’ve played, I view the cream of the crop as (in the same order as in the OP, but not necessarily ranked in this order- I view maps in tiers rather than in numbered rankings):Flash, do me a favor? — list the five maps of yours that you think are the best standard tournament maps?

@Typhon2222
Yeah - I'd agree with OEAO here about the maps at the top. Just don't put a movement glyph on Frostmire.
And man, I gotta update the OP. I have been meaning to post a couple updates - Honor, Blackridge, Desolation, and Raodor at least, but maybe a couple others. I've also been meaning to separate them out based on how fit I think they are for tourney play.

Wow. I'm terrible and never responded to this. And I haven't done it either! Okay - I'll get to it this week.
This looks way cool! Had just a few extra Iron Golem's lying around huh?? Those are actual ones and not 3d prints?

Hee hee, yes, real Iron Golems. Bought them back in 2010 or 2011 as column-crowning 'statues' when you could pick them up for a couple of bucks. Same with the Raelins: they cost pennies back then.....I just built Battlefield 23 using some of my custom terrain.

If/when I get around to building something other than Frostmire, any of these might make the table. Although maybe I'll build Alta for some super battles...

I really dig the Blackridge rework! The image for it appears to have a battlement misplacement- just FYI. The PDF is copacetic though

Thanks so much!
Yeah - GameBear pointed that out to me as well. Thanks for passing it on as well though! I'll change the image soon, but I just settled on updating the build instructions for now.
Thanks again!

Re: Flash_19's Maps: Revisions 3/19/22
Our game tonight is on your Royal Gardens. Just got it built. Will be my first time ever playing on the map — looking forward to it!
We always play four people: two against two. With 500 points each player, that'll be 2,000 points on the field. Should be interesting.

How'd it go?? Looking forward to hearing your feedback - especially with Royal Gardens nominated for WoS. It's been a long time since I've played the map, honestly. However, looking at it, I'm thinking I might like opening it up just a touch so it doesn't feel quite so claustrophobic.

Re: Flash_19's Maps: ScapeCon II Submissions Added
Flash, you're one of the great map mapmakers and I voted for both of these, but...
...every time I look at Nightblood I can't help but think how stupid the name is. "Shadow is black and lava is red. Night is black and blood is red. Nightblood. Nailed it."

Re: Flash_19's Maps: ScapeCon II Submissions Added
In total agreement. I've often wondered what @Flash_19 could come up with in our C3G world with all the extra tools he could have in his toolbox!
