Jalinth Posted September 26, 2006 Share Posted September 26, 2006 I just saw this photo and instantly thought of a DropTeam map. http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/ap060926.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toby Haynes Posted September 26, 2006 Share Posted September 26, 2006 Given these are NASA pictures, they are probably covered by a fairly liberal license. So a map could probably be created directly from the real height and colour image. From a DropTeam perspective, it probably makes more sense to use this as the inspiration and create something visually similar. It certainly would work well - low areas to hide tanks in, with higher positions for arty or similar to rain terror on the forces below. The scale might be better off reduced a little too or only a portion used - the scale on this image is about 40 km East-to-West which would be too big for a 30 minute game. I'll stick on my "ideas" list. My next map is nearly complete so I'll have a few days off map-making before picking up a new idea. Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
