Discland map (from JMT) - UPDATED

Might or might not have been someone interested in this map, so here it is. Standard small, 4-player. Intended to be played in teams 1/3 vs 2/4.

Balance notes: Three villages per quadrant in addition to two flanking villages and one central village. Due to spacing and turn order, players 1 and 2 should be able to reach the flanking villages and nearby small castles first with proper use of scouts.

Asymmetric because I hate symmetry.

EDIT: Updated, more loyalist friendly version (for player 2); screenshot.

And....I'd love to show you all a jpeg of the whole map, but...

I'm afraid I don't know how.

Perhaps one of you computer-savy people might explain to me how I could produce this? As opposed to a simple screenshot (which cannot cover the entire map).

The way I do it is the following. I hit print screen to "copy" a screenshot out of wesnoth. Then I alt-tab out to GIMP (my prefered image editting software) and paste it into GIMP. For even small maps it is often necessary to rectify several screenshots together to get a complete picture of map (pasting them on top of each other starting form bottom left so the UI gets covered up). Afterwards I shirnk and image so it is fewer megabytes and put it on photobucket. I then copy the IMG link provided at photobucket and paste that link into my forum messages.

If you have any more questions feel free to ask.

Good luck with your mapmaking

Hah, got it to work! Albeit with a slightly annoying label.

*mutter* bitmap conversion *grumble*
