***calm down gimil****

no its the other way round.

Realm is SUPPOSE to be the feudal trilogy, i came up with the concept of a trilogy to follow up this one (classic). However KEYOGI insisted on a name change. and after that DiM (Despite both me and him working on it) seems to have stole my thunder.

nonono

they are, age of realm was origanally called feudal war. I planned on making a trilogy to follow up this project. However i let DiM start the 1st chapter. After a while KEYOGI wasnt happy with the two in developmet so we changed the name with the INTENTION of changing it back later on once one of them got quenched. But now DiM has gotten ahead of me after a slowed doen production for a while and everyone thinks im the follow up rather than the other way round.

Don't now why people on here don't like being cooks, remember under siege: A former SEAL, now cook, is the only person who can stop a gang of terrorists when they sieze control of a US Navy battleship.

i also have to rant a bit.

gimil came up with the feudal idea and started this map. then i said i'd like to make it a trilogy with his being the first chapter and mine the second and then we both work together on the third.

so i started thinking about the age of realms but during the process me and gimil decided to leave this map as a prequel and the other one as the trilogy.

so this was feudal wars classic and the other one feudal wars trilogy. i got my name on this map cause i helped and he got his on the other one cause he helped.

and as gimil said the name had to be changed because keyogi (and i think andy) had a problem with the maps being linked or something like that.

and i didn't steal any thunder.

stealing thunder is exactly what you done. I know it wasnt your intent but everywhere i go AoR is over shadowing me. Even the foundry new seems to favour AoR. I know its my own fault for loosing steam with feudal for a while. But ive jsut got slightly ticked off with hte way people are talking about it.

But again DiM i know this wasnt your intent so dont worry yourself about it mate. :wink:

might i suggest (i didnt read anything since the post of updated maps cuz there are WAY too many quote trains UGH) that you find a more creative name than "Feudal Lake"?

maybe something like Witches Demise or something that related to some aspect of feudal life

I can make it more blue, but it really needs the green to stop the land looking like it jsut cutes off at the water.

Make it blue in the middle then :P


the legend, i think should look less like modern wall and more like a castle one :D

It was a castle look i went for. what maeks it look modern?

Castle stones tended to be flat, they did not stick out in the middle

castles still need doing :P

In what way? I plan on doing t shading by hand, im jsut not sure how to go about it.


I thought you where planning them to look more like the ones of AoR

STILL A TOO GREEN MAP :lol:

I put the lake in to break the green up the green a little which i though worked nicely. What else do you suggest to break the green up further?

Bluer water, mud, sand? mountains, fields.

roads/paths need more width variation

Why? roads dont tend to largly in size, and at this scale i think there fine.

same with the cliffs

The cliffs where extramly difficult to make and i dont think i could change the width to much without making them look artificial, but ill experiment.

army circles are a tad too light

Ill lighten them

No reduce the lightness, make them less transparent :P

missing a number right of the barbarian castle

It will be fixed

and quite a few more. (my mistake not as many as i though, the road looks like borders ) :D


The type font really does not fit.

As much as i hate to tell you this i will be back :) :)

No the old castles got replaced with these ones to keep KEYOGI happy.

Fileds are possile, but athte scale im doing, making mud fit is hard and mountains are impossible.
