Thank you very much :D . I think I prefer my slightly larger central castle but all the other changes are very good. Also, the castle to the south doesn't actually have a leader, however I think your expanded version gives a sense of the size of the city's defences. I especially like the bridge through the swamps, however I think the fence next to player 4's starting position isn't really necessary.

Glad to help. :D Feel free to change whatever you wish. Oh, and if you need any more maps I can make a few if you want. :)

Thanks for the offer, I'd be very happy for you to contribute . The first scenario of chapter 1 is set in the desert, do you think you could make a map for it(I'm not good at desert maps)? I'd be very grateful if you could. If you are willing please PM me the first draft. Thank you again :) .

Any specifics beside 'desert'? I'd be easier if I knew the basic structure of how that scen would go so I know where to put keeps, etc. :)

I'll PM you the details (probably tomorrow) once I've worked out the basic events of the scenario in consultation with Cswiftcomposer and almost certainly a little help from Adamant14.

Also here's my revised map:

OK :D . Really, you have free reign on the map as I haven't even thought of what's going to be in the scenario, so maybe if you produce the map it'll give me some inspiration :) !

I'm making Vaxmos, but I'm not sure what movetypes to use for his different phases. Suggestions?

What about armoredfoot and smallfoot? Most mages have smallfoot I think.

Maybe the smallfoot for his Warlord stage, and armoredfoot for his Dragon Mage and Archmage?

Definitely the other way round-warlords are heavily armored leaders, whereas mages tend to wear robes, and most have smallfoot anyway.

Scenario 3 will be posted soon, all those involved should already have it by PM. Also, the R'tia faction are not being used at the moment in the first scenario. This will change as soon as some placeholder art can be made/found. I have made a thread in the SCD forum for general comments on the project, critique, guidabne, and communication between team members.

Attention Staff!...I will be doing the slide show art probably including characters. I've decided that there is just too much work involved in trying to find public domain fantasy art that could be used in the story slideshow. I have some artistic talent, not like a professional but hopefully i can get the job done. Unless anyone else feels they could do more worthwhile job let me know as soon as possible.
