Map Details and Information
Barsalonia is a map I drew out of boredom one day at work and liked it so much, brought it home and scanned it into the pc and went to work on it using Paint to draw in the terrain features. After about a day or two [about 3-4 hours each] the grayscale was finished and then loaded into sc4tf where it was compressed and compressed again using the compressor tool until I got a look I was satisfied with the look. Map is a fairly easy playable map, with enough flat areas and varying terrain elevations for all sorts of development styles. I also may do a V2 sometime down the road by adding in a few more isles to make all the 49 tiles playable. Thanks for looking and please feel free to leave a comment and a rate.
