This doesnt make sense

You know, for a moment (a long moment) I thought that thumb was of someone's ass in green skivvies with their upper body buried in a machine of some kind.
Also wearing boots.

the old ones did as part of their great plan

They've been getting their shit more together.

ACHTUALLY..

Ulthuan wasn't designed, it was blasted to bits, first during the daemon invasion and Caledors ritual, and then again when Malekith attempted to destroy the Maelstrom

Doesn't matter, it fucking gone now. Living on in grogs rulebooks, sadsacks fanmades, and a pretty good vidya.

GARBAGE

Sir Thomas Moore did. Ever read Utopia? It's a pretty clear rip-off of that.

An improvement nonetheless.

I wish fantasy used more bizarre geography. I don't like self-fellating autistic realism. It's fantasy, all you need to do is be consistent, have fun.

>as the creator of the setting make a dumb thing
"magic lol!"
>i wish there was more dumb ppl like me lol

Imagine being this uncreative

I think the death one is the worst, but I dont have it.

The idea with Warhammer or similar settings is that it allows a pretty large world that can be unique, but players aren't fully alienated from. Sure, the Empire has crazy guns and steam tanks and wizards, but a new player can focus on the historical aspects that are familiar until they broaden their knowledge of the setting. You can play Warriors of Chaos without really thinking about Moorcock level cosmology, you can just treat them like vikings.

I feel like otherwise fantasy tends to fall into two camps - a setting that's unique and trying very hard to be, but you have to be very interested to get into it and can't just pick it up, or a setting that's different from history but is rather generic beyond a few points, so it's familiar and recognizable but not trying to jump to stranger subjects.

I used to play chaos vs my friend HE from 5th to 8th.
Is heartbreaking.

THAT'S what the AoS maps look like???

That is better, but - at least from that picture - we barely know where any of those locations are on Chamon, or why they're really relevant. It's a map without context, like a map of states without knowing the country in question. I can only tell where two of the maps link together, and that's after a bit of looking.

It's called an archipelago you brainlet. This idea in fantasy originates from the Carthaginians.

When has an archipelago had a very large central island that's almost a perfect circle? At best you get small coral reefs like that, but nothing that'll form mountains, I don't know how you relate the Carthaginians to that.

...

Thats a tiny ass island you scumbag

So is your dick

kek, I see it now

same

too much time on the web bro

Isn't it supposed to be a fuckhuge dragon's corpse?

This map fucking sucks

Its either the tip of an underwater vulcan or a meteor crater.

I kinda want to set a campaign there. Looks rad as hell.

would you play a campaign in a world laid out like this?

well IC its the remnants of a massive dragon so theres that

>a dragon fellating its tail
Can't unsee it.
Curse you, user !!

>when the artist gets bored and starts putting in landmasses shaped like boots and penises to see what he can get away with

Typical, I guess on the one landmass you've got the lands of free people and on the other you've got the evil empire, right?

No, unrealistic shit

...

>ess on the one landmass you've got the land
Don't forget the wealthy city-states that are constantly bickering among themselves, can't get their shit together when the evil empire starts another attempt at conquering them every one or two generations, need the land of the free to save their asses and then are talking shit about it for the next 100 years.

I really like that, noticed what it was from the shape of South America

I got my clue from the Black Sea and Caspienne.

Very nice work indeed. the relief make it less obvious to the eyes.

And the people of the continents to the north were made irrelevant since they don't border the evil empire or the lands of the free

Fuck off, revisionist.

The Soviets did most of the work, you just sat back and profited from everything.

Just read that comic, thanks for making me aware of it!

How can you not see this at first glance? It is so glaringly obvious

Winner winner chicken dinner. From a time long ago when the design studio actually had some brain cells in it.

What are those "So-Vits" you are talking about stranger ?
We all know that our glorious city-states stoud on their own against the Western hordes.
Sure, sure, those sea-faring barbarians crossed the Eastern ocean to help us a little.
Twice.
But that's only because they want to annex us.

I heard some of the Black Wizards fled there from the city-states to avoid answering for the horrors they had done during the last war.
Rumors, obviously... but still.

Sauce?

>take existing warhammer map
>cut it up a bit in photoshop
>flip it upside down
I'm done boys! Sell this with the next $400 box set of 8 minis!

What is this? Was this designed by a 5-year old? I read WHFB-names but it is too retarded for that, is this AoS?

They killed WHFB for THIS?

I-I like the flying tree.

It's literally a large crater. Caused by a huge (magical) explosion that happened thousands of years before.

You mean correctly? That is how the world looks.

>The Soviets did most of the work, you just sat back and profited from everything.

And you're gonna call him a Revisionist?

I mean, the Soviets contributed the most, but the most work? They mainly helped the most because of the krauts being stupid.
The allies put forth more work in their planning and such.
Though, if we're being technical here, the allied bombings and blockades probably contributed to the defeat of Germany quite a bit...

"The Circle of Life" or something.

The great lake islands look comfy as fuck.

What's the best advice you can think to give to someone trying to draw an at least semi-realistic map? What kind of software would you recommend to make it?

I keep trying to draw a map for my campaign world, but it's just not coming together. I have no idea where to start, because as soon as I start, everything else has to flow from and into that one decision; the whole world's geography is inter-connected and the second I design one little thing, the rest starts to make no damn sense!

Wow user, nobody else noticed that at all. How sharp and astute you are. Truly we would be lost without you!

Thank you. I am rather insightful.

And, you know, the massive influx of supplies that kept them alive. Soviets were dead without them.

Yeah I know, not arguing for the Soviets here, just that they didn't not do anything.

The main problem AoS has is that there are next to no stakes, and the ones that exist are so alien in concept and so unexplained that we cannot relate.
WFB was about regular soldiers and little settlements of civilization struggling agains the chaos and the end of their world. AoS is about some immortal thunder-god living in a planar golden city a la Sigil, whereas the "good guys"are immortal too. The worlds they are conquering are savage and uncivilized: there is nothing at stake besides colonization, and I often ponder why the fuck they felt the need to go out of Azyrheim or however it's called if Chaos cannot reach there.

Their maps are so bad because everything on them means nothing: infinite worlds and infinite planes without civilizations of "good guys", just elemental beings roaming there and chaos barbarians killing each other. Wew, I really care for this world. We cannot relate to any that is happening in AoS, and thus we don't care for their maps, lore or characters.

Fuck GW, they ruined one of the best fantasy settings when they could've easily turned it into a specialist game.

What the fuck does any of this have to do with High Elves?

You two cunts know nothing about history, so I recommend you take this to /hist/ where your retarded ramblings will be welcomed.

I'd listen to (a) Mordacious Sound

Yep. Crater. That's what they look like: outer ring, central island.

It's straight-up realistic, bros.

He was making a joke aboutthe world undah

Cause you know, its upside down.

Dude, islands form like this where a volcano used to be. Google that shit before you start typing next time.

No.

Wow check out my epic realisitc map

Other than the colours, and earth's tectonic history, it's not that unrealistic. The coastline could be more fractal, but the general shape is alright.

Megavolcano in the Atlantic.
Seems legit
