[QUOTE="Knightfall, post: 1050410, member: 2012"] [b]Re: Question[/b] Thanks Brian! My maps are like an extension of myself into the fantasy worlds I create. The shape and inspire! That's a tough choice, especially in CC2. The program allows you to do either and I must admit I've bounced back and forth between top-down and bottom-up mapping. Right now, I'm working on mapping out one whole continent, one regoin at a time. I would suggesst you start with you're campaign area first and then go from there. Only create what you need to start with. Then as the PCs explore the world you can extend the maps as they travel. You could also make it that no one knows what's beyond the main campaign region, which could lead to the PCs wanting to become explorers of those nether regions beyond, say the Thundering Mountains of Gauol. Let me know how it goes (but make sure you start your own CC2 thread if you post the maps here on EN World). I'm kind of fussy about my campaign threads, although I don't mind questions here about how I go about creating maps. Cheers! KF72 [/QUOTE]
