Map Details and Information
This is the first set in a series of themed fantasy maps that I will be making. Themes for this series of maps will include regions dominated by lakes, rivers, islands, coastlines and canals to name a few and all will include various terrain elevations for a natural look. All will be in the fantasy map catagory, though you may find some familiar land/water forms found in RL. This first 2-pak consists of two lake themed maps and both are standard sized maps with configs included and some color imagaes, each map zipped in it's own folder.
Map Specifics
Map Type: Fantasy
Region map size: Map is configured for 16 large city tiles and is 4x4 in size.
config.bmp size: included with zip file
Dependencies: Either SC4 Mapper or SC4 Terraformer for importing.

6. Click on 'Save Region' and name it, and Quit SC4Mapper
