Maps in progress

I've mentioned these elsewhere, but still haven't got my scanner working yet.

For those who've been asking about this new series of Walkabout town maps, here is a work-in-progress photo.


Each map is based on a real Australian town, with outskirts degraded due to supernatural activity, walls or fences added as protection, and everything tilted to accounted for the shift in the Earth's axis due to events in the history of the Walkabout setting.

There is a range of a dozen different towns of various sizes, and they've been drawn up with a range of ways to move from one town to the next. Roads, railway lines, coastlines, rivers. I'd like to think these maps could be used in a wide variety of games using the post apocalyptic genre, not just Walkabout.

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
