I WOULD LOVE TO CREATE MY OWN MAP.
MAYBE EVEN DOING AREAS IN MORE DETAIL.
LIKE CITIES WITHIN A STATE OR A MAP OF JUST ONE COUNTRY.
PLEASE RESPOND IF YOU HAVE IDEAS RELATING TO THIS,
OR IF YOU KNOW HOW WE CAN GO ABOUT DOING THIS...[/b]

Yes I Could do a map. And I have both graphic programs. I guess my question is. Who makes it happen. The creators of Conquer Club would have to condone it. And I would like to know if they are willing. For example Israel would be great. Larger ares would be like countries. Haifa, Jerusalem, Tel Aviv. All would be there own continents if you please. And ares of Jerusalem or these larger cities would be divided. The Negev would be interesting. I mean not just Israel, any country. I think it would be great.

Do you think that Conquer Club might actually go for it, and add it to the list of maps available to play?

You can get a good idea of how map making works if you go and read some of the other threads where maps are being made.
I think Israel would make a good map. You should try it

In the same forum you are posting this thread in.
Instead of going to this page, click another link.
http://www.conquerclub.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=15181
thats a good one.
When you post a map, you need:
1. An image that the map will be based on.
2. An explanation of the map.
3. Ask for stuff you can improve on.

Israel is the site of a lot of political interest. I would probably play it a lot, too.
