Americas map

Post by CptJMoney »

Hey all,

It seems weird that we have an Eastern Hemisphere map but no Western Hemisphere. We do have a New World map but it doesn't have everything. This map would be good for 1v1.

Reasoning: This is an idea that requires further development into a graphical draft before being put in the Drafting Room.

Ouch. Harsh.

Maybe you could go here, CptJMoney, get some idea of what is expected of you to get people to care about your idea. Personally, I like it. You had me at "we have an Eastern Hemisphere map but no Western Hemisphere". Figured that's probably true, let's have one of those!

Best of luck!
