Caribbean
Europe
Jungle of Despair
House Map
Caribbean Double
If you want to repaint the Caribbean map I can send you the outline but you should ask Noxon for permission or ask him if he will redo it himself.
I've never been a fan of the Europe map. Pntbttr got it to an acceptable state but of course it can always be better. I just don't like the style he came up with. If he wants to he can try some other style or someone else can ask him for permission to try a new style on it. We will of course have a vote on which version is better, new or old.
Jungle of Despair by Marcoxa has perspective issues and is ugly. I would prefer a new version with a new, beautiful style and a proper perspective. As it is now the forest looks mostly flat and the mountains straight up and down. It doesn't look right.
The House Map needs the touch of a talented artist. It needs a complete overhaul. The regions, territories and gameplay need to remain the same but all the graphics need to be redone.
It's the same for all of these maps except Carribean Double. The gameplay should remain the same. I am merely talking about repainting them.
If anyone wants to repaint Caribbean Double just say so. It needs a complete redo including a game play change. It either needs to be reduced to 44 territories or increased to 52 territories. I made the map before discovering that 45-51 territory maps are unfair because they give an advantage to the player who goes first. You could either combine matahambre with havanna to reduce the map from 46 to 44 territories or you could include the 3 florida territories from the caribbean map to get it to 52 territories. I originally removed florida to make the map shorter to reduce scrolling and because it looked funny to have the second florida half way down the map. Perhaps you will have more luck with fitting everything.
I would prefer a 44 territory map since this is a popular 2p map.
If you choose to update this map then please post a new outline first before any new graphics since the gameplay will be changing.
The DXII Stadium map is also needing new graphics but it would take a lot of work and I don't think it would be worth it. Not very many players like playing on that map. For that reason the map has been discontinued. Everyone who currently has access to making games on the map will retain that access but new players won't see the games.
Are there any other maps that need touch ups or redo's?
