Post subject: Creativity Challenge #8: Make an AAM map for online matches
|
 |
|
You have until Sunday night Pacific Time for an AAM map that we will use in our online matches (not for the olympic final).
It must have some coordinate system and I would say no more than 800 pixels in any dimension.

Perhaps a little more detail as to what you want would help.

See the previous such competition, for Was and the maps of the online matches forum, for AAM.
It must have some coordinate system and I would say no more than 800 pixels in any dimension.

  Choose any map from the HHR system and I will convert it this evening on coordinates - winter maps, railroad maps ... and please specify the size in hexes (1x1, 3x1 or 2x2 plan layout).

It's your choice. Pick your favourite. The hex size doesn't matter since it is only for online matches. See the online matches forum stickies for some examples.

No, no, no  A misunderstanding: what will be the preferred size of the battlefield? 3x1 plan (rectangle of 3 connected v1.0 maps), 2x2 plans (big square) or a simple 1x1 (5x8 hexes I guess) ?
Don't worry, I will make some and post it here.

Here they are:
Iron Horse
* You may choose classic skirmish battle (objective = center) or defensive scenarios (realistic objectives 1/2 on each side of the board).
Special: You may may cross ther river over the railway bridge, but moving on the railway bed does not count as being on a road.

Hehe Sindor, they look great, but you are allowed to post only one in the competition. Which one do you choose?

Now this is silly. Only one submission? That will be the easiest 7 pts in the olympics . Less than a day left.

They are all great submissions though
Are these maps available for print somewhere?

I'm very disappointed with the lack of submissions in this competition.

This is based off of a 3D map that I am working on. Although, it is a little smaller than what I am making.

Not having the time has been the issue for me. Not the lack of interest.
