Threeforged Design Challenge (Stage 2)

I've spent a bit of time over the last couple of days refining the "Stage 1" entry I was given.

It was a fairly short one and there were lots of gaps in it, but I felt like there could be some great potential in it.

I've actually honed it into a game that I'd really love to playtest, possibly even a game that I'd develop further if I had the opportunity. The only catch is that I added  lot to it.

I'm hoping that I've left enough gaps for the final designer to dd their personality into the final product.

I'm also wondering what happened to my first round submission through this second stage of the contest.

A Guide to Geomorphs (Part 7)

A working computer and scanner...that means it is time to get back to work on the geomorph sequence. A lot of the discussion in this set of tutorials has been focused around square geomorphs. They're the easiest for most people to wrap their heads around.  But my preferred form of geomorph is based around the hexagon, these tend to produce more organic and interesting shapes. This is true for natural environments, but it's no less true for urban environments. The example set of geomorphs above as a simple two-phase system. One edge type is plain, the other edge type has a road piercing the centre. There could be dozens of combinations and permutations for each of the two phases around the hexagonal edges, but a quick look at the variety of buildings and road shapes shows that there could literally be hundreds of possible options when drawing these map fragments. But you certainly don't need to create hundreds of designs for the system to be effective. Usin...

A Guide to Geomorphs (Part 1)

After numerous requests to get back to map tutorials, it's time to start our new series. This time focusing on the concept of geomorphs, modular map fragments that can be mixed and matched. We'll start with a couple of theoretical tutorials before sinking into a few more practical posts. I'm predicting a dozen or so posts in this sequence, but let's see how long it lasts.
