Argh
I showed the map to the guy that's running the game we're going to be using it for. He thought it was nice, but that one of the continents needed a horizontal wall of mountains through it. Alas.
I've started working on the new map, which I'll post soon.
Don't ya just hate when editors come along and, with total disregard for your labor, suggest something off the wall? Are you going to have to rework the whole landmass to include his lil wall?

I had to redo the whole map, because the main continent was also not big enough for him. Then again, he does have the excuse of magic for putting a shield-wall in such a strange place, so I guess I can't even throw the book at him. He sketched out something like the accompanying map. On a lighter note, my mother has noted that the main continent looks like an extremely fat waiter. Now I can't stop grinning whenever I look at it.
Like before, I still have to do rivers, countries and labels.
I'm loving the waiter!Originally Posted by Morgaine
I might suggest varying the new mountain range a bit. I am sure magic is a fine excuse to have a completely straight range. But at the same time, I am sure both you and the DM will find it more agreeable if it did a bit more zigging, zagging, and varying in width.
Very nice looking start, though.
Yep, I agree with msa on the zig-zagging, even if only a little bit just to get rid of the straightness...DM be damned. The fat waiter thing made me spew Pepsi all over myself and made me think of the Monty Python movie The Meaning of Life skit where the fat dude explodes after eating the wafer-thin mint.

I was thinking the exact same thing... "Whafer-thin mint?"
