April Entry: The Wreck of the Pedeuna Sesitora

[helium3]

My shtick with this entry is that it's a map of the area of an ancient sea battle too place in. Somewhere in the area is the wreck of a warship that contains the MacGuffin. The only clues to the location of the wreck are contained within the recently re-discovered eyewitness account of one of the wreck's survivors.

Right now, I've only put together the base map and the hex grid.

Hah hah. Yes. This is totally my final entry.

All you need to do is add some grid references and then we can take turns to pick a spot to search.

What do we win if we find the wreck?

An invisible and intangible pile of gold, of course. And XP.

And here's the water redone with some cool plasma effects. I've seen this effect used on a couple of maps and have always wanted to use it on one of mine.

This really made me laugh!

I don't know what happened...but I think my super admin powers messed up the thread title...and I can't remember what it was supposed to be...could you either edit it back yourself or tell me what it should be so I can fix it?

Edit: Nevermind...I found it in the still cached RSS feed....byawwww!!!!

Errrr. I thought I posted this last night, but I guess I forgot to hit the actual button. That's what happens when you try to work with the intertubes after an exhausting day of filling my face at a birthday brunch followed up with running a 5 hour D&D game where I as the DM am pretty much pulling stuff out of my behind.

Anyhow, in my mind, this map would be used for a online PbP or PbE game, which is why it's got the grid and the colors are more "saturated" than they would be if I were to print it. The nice thing about using Illustrator is that it's pretty easy to change a lot of the fiddly details once the map's done.
