    If you're confident about implementing water, then woohoo! Certainly adds possibilities for later maps.

    Yeah, I can see it now . . . a meadow bordered by tress . . . a dirt road . . . a startlingly straight river with clearly defined edges . . . hey, it's the River Road! We could put random encounters there! :grin:

    Random encounters? River Road is the main map!!! :jerkin:

    Edit: Finally got around to posting some more stuff Screeg has done in the gallery (some recent, some I shoulda put up a while back). Once I have done basic blocking on the maps, I'll try my hand at adding lights, fires etc and post a few results of that.

    You should be in bed, Ted. It's 1:00 p.m. everywhere else in the world, but it's 5:00 a.m. in 'Stralia. :asleep:

    We could do opening vignettes for each alignment on the River Road map:

    LG: "You come upon a caravan being raided by a group of bandits along the river road . . . "

    NG: "One day, while walking along the river road, you here a scream from the nearby riverbank . . ."

    LN: "The Lord Mayor of Greyhawk has requested that you meet him by the river road . . ."

    TN: "The high elf council has convened a session by the river road . . ."

    CE: "While burning down a church of St. Cuthbert by the river road, you have a discussion about life and death blah blah blah . . . "

    LE: The High Priest of Hextor invites you to a picnic by the river road, fearful of missing out on tea and cakes you attend.

    <just looked at the new picks> PINK HAIR, I forget you can get pink hair, cos I changed it in mine to be Bright Auburn Brown (see below) and I was thinking of changeing the blue hair to another colour maybe...

    Update: basically as above, but had to be redone for a new improved Keep map Screeg did, with the market around the fountain now included. Much fun going in and out of buildings! (Well, fun for me ;))

    Update: KotB as a seperate module has come into being (slightly unfinished - 14 maps, no NPCs at this exact moment!) Got a slight issue with the PCs showing up untextured :errf: but that can be fixed. Here's a peek.
