Title: Strategus map with Hexagonal Grid (file inside)
Post by: Noctivagant on June 23, 2011, 12:38:25 pm: This map is designed to help players and factions to understand Strategus faction borders. Faction borders are reviewed to be more accurate. Old maps were showing some factions larger than they are due filling unnecessary landfill.

The map of Calradia divided into hexagonal cells. Players can view or hide factions on the map or edit their borders. Map shows the last borders of Strategus. Faction leaders can note me on cRPG forum for updates or errors.

Thanks to Thomek for bringing that idea to attention

The map looks great - it would be awesome if this could be dynamically updated once Strategus is live and territory changes progress :D

Post by: Noctivagant on June 27, 2011, 01:28:11 am: Shit thing is, fiefs are randomly placed on the map I've tried several grids and they don't fit into any of them. Current one is the closest one I believe.

I'm updating the file, anyone who have a basic knowledge of Photoshop will be able to make maps in matter of seconds.

Post by: Casimir on June 27, 2011, 02:41:54 am: Fiefs that cover multiple hex's would have greater influence and be more strategically important.

Would mean that some villages could be more productive and bring another tactical element when planning attacks / defenses in strategus wars.

Post by: Elerion on June 29, 2011, 01:09:49 pm: Well, as long as we're only using the map through a web interface, it should be easy to simply shift fiefs a little to a side to fit them nicely inside a grid. We don't have to be religious about using the 100% accurate M&B map.
