A detailed and well-written post will appear in due course. This posting is to show you the map I’ve created for my Dedhampton Revolution. The Dedhampton Revolution is my imagi-nation, inspired by Henry Hyde’s Wars of the Faltenian Succession, based on the American Revolution. My world is populated with:
- Dedhampton-Based on the United Kingdom and her colonies:
- New Dedhampton-Small colony on the coast
- Nateekingham-Moderate sized colony with limited coastal access
- Glouland-Large colony bordering the wilderness
The map is LARGE. I’ve resized it to 50% size and it is still large. My hope is that I’ll have the dedication to continue with this project for as long as the Faltenian Succession has been going. It has been a joy spending 12+ hours this weekend bringing this world to life. If you are inclined to try something like this, I strongly recommend two things.
- Read Henry Hyde’s Wars of the Faltenian Succession in Battlegames Magazine (Issues 1-5)
- Download Hexographer to create your map
Well done, Jonathan. You finally succumbed to the imagi-nations bug! It’s one of the most absorbing aspects of the hobby you’ll ever embark on and your games will be so much more meaningful now that you have all the background material you have generated.
Welcome aboard!
(And Hexographer looks very interesting too — I’ll give it a go myself.)
