*** December 2009 Challenge - Wishing you a very Orcish Christmas.
This month's challenge is "Holiday on Ice...for Orcs"
It's December and the festive season. Christmas! Hannukah! The festival of head boiling...if you're an Orc.
So here is this month's challenge:
We would like to see a festive map from the point of view of an orc. Any scale. You may think of orcs whose best christmas would be to see Minas Tirith in flames. Or perhaps something more gentle. It is up to you.
Your map must:
* Have a winter theme.
* Be seen from the point of view of orcs.
Feel free to festoon your map with all sorts of Orcish goodness and even better if you map tells an orcish story.
So make it an orcish Christmas for us all!
Best of luck and may the best orc win.

Cool. Don't know if I have time but I'll see if I can at least try to participate.

Due to time constraints, I might just have to whip up something in pencil. Gotta find me n idear den git crackin (helps if I think in orcish).

I have an idea but I won't have the time to do it, but I hope someone else will take it up: How about an orcish advent calendar .... a map with locations....the unturned flap has happy villagers etc, but the turned flap has carnage.... any takers?
