    Here's my themed map, it comes in 2 sizes so it can go on any server you wish.

    Theme: Ancient egypt
    Name: The Pharaoh's Hidden Gold
    Big map: 265x47​
    Egypt Big.png
    Small map: 176x46​

    There are deadly hidden traps which, if shadowing is enabled are easy to spot. Buy a freaking lantern.

    Alright folks, here's the deal on shadowing - it's going to be enabled.

    The survey came down to a really close spread on votes - opinion was clearly very divided. Feedback for shadowing being enabled, however, was much more compelling. There's really no reason mappers shouldn't be taking it into account at this point, especially as we move forward and see a greater divide between basic and premium KAG. If you've got lighting issues then build some windows into the backwall of your structures or get creative.

    A special note on backwall heavy maps - All backwall is also perhaps not the best idea for a variety of reasons. You know how hard it is to topple a good defensive structure in KAG, now imagine making it impossible to take the base out from under it. Welcome to Knight hell; the eternal Archer stand-off!

    Well my table map takes place IN A HOUSE, so i'm sure it wouldn't be weird if there were windows.
    I win this one.

    Update: I fixed the Table Fighters map! I think it might look even better with the windows!
    I also might to a bit of tweaking on Fractured as well. So its not so dark in some places.

    I started sketching my map!
    On paper, that is. I like to draw them first. (Although I usually mess up with the scaling.)

    Also; hurray for lightning! :lantern: :):thumbs_up:

    PS:
    I approve of this. :p

    :archer: :spam::sword::skull: :eek:

    I'm making a themed map. (Civilization) :)
    If my laziness allows me I might make a second map too.
    Your map looks pretty good by the way.:thumbs_up:
    EDIT: You should probably fix the trees. :|
