Allow me to bump. I have just found out about this, having taken a surprised look at my credit card statement earlier today. Having gone through the 11 pages of conversation in this thread, I feel like this issue has not been addressed at all.

Let me make one thing clear from the start. When I ...

There is a Midkemia map (books of Raymond E. Feist) as well, it's called "Midkemdil"

Inkscape

Monster10, how old are you?

Hmm, I know, but its really weird: the background rectangle is 840x800, but I keep getting empty space around it. How can I get rid of that?

Did it a couple of minutes ago, I'm looking forward to hearing their opinion!

Draft 2.4:
http://i42.tinypic.com/k4grup.jpg
Changes:
* Changed Nord-Tshopo border to make it more clear that Sud-Tshopo borders Haut-Uele
* Added an impassable at Sankuru to make it somewhat less impossible to hold Central (still hard though)
* Deleted Sud-Tshopo to Nord-Kivu one ...

You're probably right. How about if I remove the Tshopo to Nord-Kivu one way and add a one way from Nord-Kivu to Ituri?

Draft 2.3:
http://i40.tinypic.com/2vczvc5.jpg

Changes:
* I got rid of the "advanced" graphics for a while to make it easier to change things.
* Suggestions for impassable borders added, as well as one way attacks. Thanks to RedBaronO for the mountains.
* More territories added ...

And the +2 troop bonus will be sufficient for conquering a 75 troop tower?
Or do I understand it wrong?

Anyway, not a lot of people will be excited because of the graphics, but I like the idea I hope someone is willing to turn this into a draft.

I'm starting to develop the opinion that I'd like to see more territories.
I'll see what I can do and post an update

personally i'd put a barrier between Equateur, Tshuapa, Sud Ubangi and Mongola that will make it a bit more easy to maintain a hold on those bonuses and then between Katanga, Haut ...

Go for it, I want to see this map made!

Well, I really want to, but these are problems I'm facing at the moment:
1) Inkscape is the only graphics software I know how to work with
2) It's terribly slow when you add effects - I can probably solve this by putting everything in place and add the ...

I've looked into everything again and I think it's better if I shift to another graphics programme. Inkscape was good so far but once you add effects to the paint everything goes terribly slow. Is this in other programmes as well? Any tips?

Or maybe I can delete all effects and add them once the ...

I'm not happy with the texture... its too... swampy? I'd like to see what else you could come up with.
I'll make up some other stuff as well

What does MLC, fnlc and RCD stand for?
MLC = Movement for the Liberation of Congo
FLNC = Front pour la Libération Nationale du Congo (typo on the map ...

As promised, my second draft:
http://i44.tinypic.com/2yn54bs.jpg

I changed the overall look, added rebel names and changed the river (added an additional dock as well). "R" changed to swords.
I think docks will just be called "Lualaba Dock" etc.
Most changes are in the layers, to ...

There is one of the Soviet Union and a Russian Revolution map is being designed.
But I get your point

"Bloamfontein"?
Shouldn't that be "Bloemfontein"?

(Or maybe it was spelled like that in 1885?)

Impassables... well, the orange, green and yellow bonus areas each have one territory separated from the rest. I think you need some bridges there if you're going to keep the impassables at those locations. Anyway, even with the impassables you have now, the game area is very open. All the bonus ...

Hi all,

Here an idea for a new map called "Rebellion in the Congo!"

Go to page 2 for draft 2.4!

Why?
Apart from Madagascar, there are no 100% African settings in Conquer Club. Furthermore, the gameplay of this map differs from any other! Curious? Keep on reading!

General info
Setting: The ...

That isnt possible, bacause of the time zones!
When I (Belgium) play with someone who lives in Sydney,
and I play at 2PM, a normal time in the noon, In Sydney it's midnight. Which means the Sydney player -when he gets up at 10AM- only has 4 hours to play! (In your suggested time of 14h)

I'll sign in as soon as i finished 2 games, lets hope there's still a spot free then

When do I need those 2 empty spots? Got 4 on now...

U can be freemium for this one, right?

I dont mind... I just have to do it +1
