Posting my city map because all the country maps would need to be converted to png and that would take like a minute and I'm lazy
>>44018032
Cities are appreciated too. I dont have much experience and these would be good practice
anybody got a good tropical map?
>>44018032
updating with a country map of mine.
>all these fancy programs
MS Paint representThis is an incomplete reference map for one of my projects. Western Europe is there for scale/latitude reference.
I just need a map of small to medium sized town with roads and buildings for my shitty horror rpg. But I'm too lazy to draw it out myself. Any of you guys know of good premade maps or a generator?

are you a fucking wizard?
>>44020359
I suggest downloading paint.net, which is free and which, if nothing else, gives you layers to play with.

what's the hex size?
>>44021726
I don't know, i actually need help rounding out this map. I was thinking 100kilos a hex
>>44021687
that's really big. Like, from the coast directly below it (not the most southern point) up to the circle, I assume it's a city, in the Lowlands, that is the length of Germany. Goslaram looks to be the size of a better part of western Europe.

100km is quite a lot for a single hex. Take a look at pic related for what 100km actually is (of course I have no idea how big the nations on your map actually are, so 100km per hex might actually work for you). I recommened putting your map next to a real map, then adjusting the dimensions of the real map until you think they're the same scale, then use the scale from the real map to judge an appropraite size for a hex.
Neat thing I found.

>l'hexagone
I see what you did there
>>44021980
>>44021958
200km a hex
>>44022462
with what real world nation would you want to compare Goslaram size wise? Or even, organisational? I assume this is a feudal state, right?
>>44022462
So roughly
>>44022677
I think of it as the size of france
>>44022793
Shoulda used Dymaxion projection to make it actually representative.
>>44022793
a bit smaller than that
>>44022806
then it's too big. It's almost twice that.
