Map Ideas


Here's an idea about what the map view could look like. The semi-3d look is inspired by Kriegspiel (the folks who made the computer version are being sued by the widow of the guy who designed the physical version as I write, so grab it before it goes. Ironically the guy who designed the board game, Guy Debord, was a Marxist), but I'm not sure of it's practicality. It doesn allow for the machine to look the same in both battle and map mode. Then the screen can zoom into the the machine when a battle is intiated, which should again help in tying the map and battle modes together.
