Discuss this design here, or post additional images or info about your design

Yes, I know the avatars isn’t necessary, but I simply loved doing it so I wanted to share my work, and I think it doesn’t hurt the map, and include all of the one I made so you can choose your favourite. I am fine with it not being implemented into the game with the map, I just think it compliments it and its certainly not a deal breaker. The star of the show is the map.

#

Also i would have done zombie pathing for this map, but i am not a zombie mode player, so i dont really have the expertise to do so.

#

I decided to post the map just because I have already spent so much time on it that its addicting.

#

So posting it here is wrapping the bow around it.

#

The design process:

#

This map was used to name the territories for the devs to reference.

plain reef
#

mines trash

#

have you seen it

plain reef
#

ok

vast palm
#

Check dms

#

But yeah i was thinking about keeping it until the last moment to post

#

But i want to inspire other people to do as well as me even if it means it decreases my chances of winning

#

I stand behind the fact that this map is well balanced

#

In terms of bonuses

#

I realised that this channel is called design discussion

#

So yeah i think it is about design too my bad

Everything was on photoshop

#

I do think the bonuses are a little on the low side for how many territorys you need to hold

#

Its a big map in general

#

So games are going to take a long ass time

Like fixed would take a while

#

But it would be really fun i think

#

And there are a few possible spots to cardblock

#

I dont think its a map that stalemates easy

tawdry void
#

Well its mainly that games would take really long

#

How did you make those characters tho?

#

You drew the viking dude with no nothing?

vast palm
#

For the viking i used stable diffusion to stylize it but all the inspiration used was from the drawings i made for it. For the other two i used none and did it by hand aswell.

tawdry void
#

Wth is that

#

Btw please dont make any more maps, otherwise we have no chance of winning😭

vast palm
#

I dont think there is anything else i can make since its all been done to be honest

#

Now its just the sci fi stuff thats left

#

This map took me way too long like probably at least 40 hours

#

But i had so much fun and learnt so much along the way and that probably the real reward is the new skill gained, but of course it be awesome to win

#

So many sleepless nights

#

Bro should teach classes with mapmaking

#

My map is shit compared tho this💀

vast palm
#

If you look at the first map i posted

#

Youll notice that it wasnt long ago that i was bad at design and making things look good.

tawdry void
#

Yo first map

tawdry void
#

now i know how you got those characters

#

good job on the design of this map i can see it being a similar playstyle as Europe advanced. i really hope this one gets added to the game. or at least an advanced map like Europe

#

or it can be played like Britania advanced world dom prog. so much potential for a map like this

#

Really good design!

P.S: Judge/judges please make sure to view the map with a big enough screen. And also for the voters if they see this.
In the case i do make it to top 6. below is a high res map only photo, if you want but i would prefer the voters see the territory names and avatars for the entire feel.
But in case you would truly prefer it in map only form or you simple want a better look at the map then here it is below:

A Denmark simple version map can be made by simply removing north america and keeping mainland denmark.

#

For technicalities i took into consideration: How easy it is to take a bonus, How easy it is to hold and How easy it is to take cards around the bonus and along with a few others.

And also i mean it terms of cosmetics: Fo the connections connecting Mainland denmark to the north, i think they should be realistic of the region as Britain blocks that sea route in the real world so it should look like this instead:
