What about a football map

Centre circle , penalty box , stands etc ?

it could work out, with territories for each player on the field, i would like to see this map and maybe help make it if theirs enough support

ok you guys, this topic has really gotten me interested.i'm sitting here, holding my copy of "the Atlas of the DragonLance World", staring at all these beautiful maps thinking "why isn't there already a map of Krynn(or, at the very least, Ansalon)being enjoyed by the many members of CC already?".in particular, the map of Ansalon, on pages xvi-xvii of the introduction would have to be the one i'd like to see most here in CC because of its familiarity to the readers of this book.the best books(in my opinion, anyways)in the series occured in these lands.and,as you may or may not know, the full-length animated movie will also occur on this map.i believe the release of this movie will garner massive interest in these books, much like the movies did for the LOTR trilogy which, of course, already has a map in CC.methinks it would be a good idea for you guys to strongly consider getting started on something out of DragonLance now because if this movie is 1/10 as popular as LOTR, people are going to be pestering the foundry 24/7 about it!it would be really nice to see a "good" map come out of this whole thing.i would be more than willing to send these maps to the appropriate parties if it would aid in any way, the inclusion of a DragonLance map into CC.thanks for reading, krallam

I agree - Five B, Jersey, Elis island. Pulled the same as San Fran

i think someone had started a New York City Map...certainly i've seen several suggestions for it.
I found some topic numbers:
19143
21423
but since the foundry changed format they seemed to have disappeared in the re-arrangement process, or i'm looking in the wrong place.

If I had know this I would have done a New York City map myself, as my ideas were to use the subways and airports as attack options, and I've actually been there up the empire state building, La Guardia etc and up through New Rochelle....i'm very familiar with the NY layout as I studied it well for georgaphy yers ago in secondary school.

It is a great city and would make a great map.
If anyone wants me to do it, please let me know.

Or even perhaps Keredrex, this could be one for U since you're a graphic designer.

hello and thanks for reading.i'm interested in creating a map based on the DragonLance Saga.so, i'm looking for someone who can get it off the paper onto the computer.i am convinced this will be one of the better maps in CC if it gets realized.familiarity with the books a definite asset, but not required.i just need someone with the computer knowledge to make this happen.interested parties please contact krallam ASAP

If you don't have the means to make a map yourself, just post your ideas in this Map Ideas thread.

I know this idea has come up a lot in the past, but something always seems to prevent it from being completed. This is my new idea. As of now, it could go MANY MANY ways in terms of gameplay. But this is my basic idea, there will be field players (total of 22) each as a territory, as well as coaches and maybe subs/referees. How and where you can attack are already stated on the map, but I am open to any suggestions as to how attacks should be. Continents will be held by holding all defenders/midfielders/forwards on a team. I'm also thinking of making territories in the stands, but I need input on whether that should be a yay or nay. In terms of gameplay this can go many ways so all feedback will help.

Keep in mind, I have not even begun to work on the graphics, so don't worry about that. And if you vote, please leave a response

Here it is so far:

[slipknot_rock]

are you going to do the world map with Land of Madmen, Shara and Seanchan or the book map

I was thinking the book map as it is the 1 most people r familier with it is a gd map to use but i dont know how to make it so i was hoping sum1 do it

[Kaplowitz]

It is very interesting...

what about the LOTR map?did whoever made that map get permission?who in fact did make that map and get it into CC?the LOTR and DragonLance maps were actually drawn by the same person, Karen Wynn Fonstad so perhaps this idea might actually have a chance...

[wcaclimbing]

So coleman, are you still working on this?

If you still are, i agree with unriggable. We need at least some version of a rough draft to guide how our stuff should look.

How about a jigsaw puzzle map, with each puzzle piece being a territory. Continent bonuses could be easy enough to do... or there could be a new bonus system, holding certain pieces spread throughout the puzzle could obtain bonuses. The puzzle image could be anything.

I think that a lot of people are not participating as much due to school starting, moving to universities, summer ending, vacations, etc. But yes, I do notice the decline in activity. I too will be leaving in about 2-3 weeks.

Im curious, if you are leaving soon why are you trying to make a map?

Thats what you said in a thread in general discussion.

Oh right, I probably will be leaving the forums for the most part. I will still be on CC maybe once a day to check in on my games, and post in the forums occasionally when I have time.

[Teya]

ah k. good luck with your maps then.

I'm working on it but my free time is limited.

I want to see a referee and a couple of linesmen.
maybe there could be a negative bonus for attacking (holding) them.

to make up for the negative bonus they should be able to attack everyone on the field like real referees.

the other football (soccer) map drafts were more about the stadium than the game. I like this one better..

in a good way, i like how it is like a real soccer game, with certain players attacking eachother.

Maybe do something with the goalie, and points.
