Please do not take this the wrong way but, it always give me a chuckle when I see lil dead dudes in giant pools of blood...maybe I'm a bit warped but I like it.

If the radiance of a thousand suns was to burst at once into the sky, that would be like the splendor of the Mighty One...I am become Death, the Shatterer of worlds.

As far as I'm concerned, the human body contains a truly ridiculous amount of blood. It's less fun to have lil dead dudes if you can't have big ol' pools of blood for them to lie in.Originally Posted by Ascension
I think you're probably right about the amount of blood.
If you want to nit pick you could mess up the pools a bit with tracks or foot prints. You might also want to paint the cloaks of some of the dead minis. Repeating the same colour, clean and in the same shape makes it look more like a mini.
Course that is nitpicking.
Good game map.
Nice font for your magic circle in the north - what is it?

Sigurd, could you give me any tips on how exactly to alter the color of the cloaks? I'm still a GIMP newbie, so any insight you have about the best way to recolor stuff like that would be fantastic.
The magic circle at the top I found on RPTools Galleries (link). I just color selected the black, inverted the selection, then copy-pasted it.
