Looks really nice Kman...love the walls.
If the radiance of a thousand suns was to burst at once into the sky, that would be like the splendor of the Mighty One...I am become Death, the Shatterer of worlds.
-J. Robert Oppenheimer (father of the atom bomb) alluding to The Bhagavad Gita (Chapter 11, Verse 32)

Yeah. Been a while since geometry Rhombus just means that the opposite sides of a four-sided shape are parallel doesn't it...or is that parellogram? Eh. Time to visit Wikipedia for remedial geometry lessons.

I didn't want to use rectangular house shapes because most people outside the inner city walls are poor. The important buildings are rectangular. It should also be a contrast to the houses inside the city wall as you can see in the new picture
I does indeed. I was thinking that the lower half of the map was the inside of the city. Now that you've added the buildings at the top, I get the idea.

I think the map is finished.But perhaps I have forgotten something? Please let me know...
I can't think of a thing. Looks awesome to me. Was going to rep you but I guess I already did!

Nice use of the houses from Shessar's collection. Out of curiosity, where did you get the texture for the ground from?
Love it. Well done Katto.
Hi ho, hi ho, it's off to work I go..
Thanks Aval!
Evilref: From the SMAC I used the city wall pieces and the little props like animals, chimneys, market stands etc. The houses were made with CD3. The cobblestone is a free texture I found on a german website and the ground texture was created with the Genetica Viewer and then modified in PS.
