topic for random map ideas. like arabia, golden pit.. I'd like to ask the Forgotten Empires team if they had any more than what actually made it into the game - that didn't make it?
I've got a couple ideas for RM but not the skill to make them. I think they're good!
Map One
OK, you know Scandinavia with water on the edge (really) and you in the middle? Yeah, instead it's water in the middle and you on the edge. And there's not much land either (basically flipping scandinavia around, but now here's the next part). But a lot of land/islands could be thrown into the middle for a real interesting showdown. 7 tile wide shallows involved too on one main path going from your edge to the other edge!
Kicker: Fish would be low. Real low. Like 1 fish for every 10 on Mediterranean low. This is to encourage use of land based food gathering. Or fish traps. I prefer farms.
Second Kicker: resource delta could be used to do SOMETHING
Third Kicker: Version (S for special) would only have DOLPHINS. jk
Map Two
A map where you and the enemy start really close to each other - but there's this river in between you. Otherwise, think of it as highland. Basically, Highland with players starting NEXT to the river, not far.
