Congratulations. Excellent job. Particularly the cliffs, fields and water.
Heh. I know *I've* never "finished" a map...just stopped working on them.

This turned out quite nicely!

This is turning out really beautifully. I think you're right about the right side of the map though. If this is a map it sort of begs the question - "Why map this empty bit?". You might think about something that, by nature, wouldn't be near the city particularly... perhaps a quarry, mine, or those peat diggings I mentioned. Perhaps there's a forest that way and you have all the facilities for sawmills, woodworkers and a major boatyard?
Maps are never really finished - you stop when all the relevant data at the resolution you're working at is present ! If ever!

You've got good ideas man
When you think about building a fortress, well, you indeed have to get a quarry ...
That's good advice and since I want to keep going on this style of map, I'm going to use that.
For now, the commissioner is happy with the map and that's all I need
Add ships, cats shadow, brand new fields to make the map more balanced, more trees, scale and some little bits here and there.
Hope you'll like this new version even better
Except if you find anything major, I'm gonna label this one finished
Next ones will be some sort of Battle maps ... never done that before ... gonna be interesting ...
Thanks for your comments guys. It means a lot to me and the map couldn't be as good as this (whatever it means) without you![]()
