Its been out for one day and already your making maps - I'm still fooling around with it, guess your more patient with the editor then i am...

The maps looks pretty good for only being worked on for a day.

[Ira Aduro]

Well I did stay up till 2am last night. Which I kind of regret. :P Thankfully though the map maker is very similar in a lot of ways to DoW1's so the learning curve isn't as high.

[newcomer]

not bad, not bad at all! ill give this map a shot. oh, by the way, grats for releasing the first DOWII custom map.

[Deunan]

You're faster :P
Looks good, the before the storm feeling is almost palpable.

I've still got to find the skybox selection.

[Ira Aduro]

I guess it is the first fan map isn't it? Well I hope it doesn't stay the only one for long. I know there's going to be some killer maps coming out in a few days.

I'm going to do a remake of Gates of Ultramar next but it will have to be desert themed since there is no snow texture stamps. Guess it will have to be Gates of ______ (whatever the home world of the Blood Ravens is).

[Scar™]

The Blood Ravens are a fleet-based chapter. The Battle Barge Omnis Arcanum houses their fortress monastery.

Grats on the 1st Fan Map.

[Ira Aduro]

Well snap. Guess I'll have to find a suitable desert planet.

[Misiok]

What bout' Calderis? It's their recruitment world, so you can use it as a homeworld. But you probably knew that :P

[Ira Aduro]

Calderis is probably the best option.

Now that I'm back from holiday I'll be putting out an updated version of the map with much more detail and more intelligent cover locations, as well as better heightmaps that won't frak up your camera, hopefully.

Updated the first post with most current edition, and pending someone finding a game-breaking bug, the final edition. Enjoy!
