    That's very nice and clean. I like the idea behind it and I also like the snow creep/water freezing going on between season.

    Why did you split it into watches (which as far as I'm aware is an arbitrary unit of time)?

    Because the numbers are easy to handle and, in game, a watch is ~6 hours - so a "decent trip".

    Nice maps, Lukc! I like travel time maps, as they're not a type of map I've seen a lot of. The fact that they're also seasonal maps is cool and gives a nice perspective on how hard it would be to go places in that area. I especially like the little icons you used to indicate towns, hamlets, villages, etc; they're simple yet creative.

    Thank you Clemence - I'm trying to create maps that a group could use, while playing a game, and also modify - leaving space to add their own content to them.

    The maps are very clean, easy to read and have utility by design (the distances are a cool idea, players always ask for them). I like the more realistic vector style of the maps. Makes it look professional, while still visually pleasing.

    Thanks Dagger! The setting is also vaguely WW1 era fantasy, so there are vehicles, but not very fast ones. Fits the style relatively well.

    I later adapted them some more, desaturating the highlands further, to make it easier to draw on them.

    The "game-ready" style is perfect !
