    Strike two! OK, got it. Sorry, didn't read page 2 -- although I should have figured there'd already be someone jumping on a nifty-looking peninsula like that.

    What about area 15, then? Doesn't look like anyone's touched that one, and there's no thread for that either...

    (ETA: If I succeed in claiming this region, can I also please get a contour map of the area from someone who's got good software for doing so?)

    I think that one is free. I'll name you on the initial thread. The rules are you wait for a week and if noone complains it's yours to do with as you will.

    I think Redrobes can help you out with heightmaps of exactitude, but if not, I'll give you a rough one.

    Don't forget that CWBP maps arn't just for christmas....be slow to abandon it if you do!

    I have height maps. Many height maps for all sorts of tiles and occasions. A number 15 sir ? Ahh good choice I have just the thing. I can get you a number 15 in many styles to suit. How about a nice contour line per 500', very fashionable I hear these days... What size are you ? About a 2K square hmmm ?

    Quadrant 15, with contour lines per 500'...sounds excellent. Could you possibly leave a little ease on each side, so that it can match adjoining tiles? I've been working on a rough copy already and I find it doesn't quite match up perfectly, especially when it comes to tracing rivers and mountain ridges across map edges.

    Thank you very much. You've been most helpful.

    I can do that one right now tho. The height map (to be exported) will match the brown tile but better to munge it and your color texture a bit to make it fit to the neighboring mapped tiles.

    OK, barring any last minute objection by the original "grabber", I beleive region #23 is now mine to 'play with'.

    So if I could be provided any of the various "base maps" that may be useful to develop the area I'd appreciate it.

    I usually provide a color guide to map to so that it lines up, a height map and a shaded relief in case thats useful too. Let me know if you want contours or something else. If you start a new thread with the usual title format then ill post them into it - keeps it all nicely separated.
