River Castles represents the conquest of Wales by England. During the unsuccessful wars of independence there existed both native Welsh and English castles in Wales, many of which still exist today. The three castles in the south are native Welsh and the three in the north were built by order of King Edward I of England. This map offers the opportunity for team play, Welsh VS English. While not geographically correct, the 3D map offers an interesting slant on Castle battle. Bridges are not countries themselves but indicate links across water. Bridges to castles connect to the closest two towers. The Keep in each castle connects to the closest castle tower. Docks in the south connect to other docks in the south. Docks in the north connect to other docks in the north.

Credit for the castle theme idea of course goes to M. Bauer, the original castle map designer. This is my three dimensional take on the theme.]]> http://sillysoft.net/lux/maps/River%20Castles top row 2012-01-16T00:00:00-05:00 http://sillysoft.net/lux/maps/Rapa%20Nui

Year after year, Burning Man draws people together for an experiment in temporary communtiy. As the population rises above 50,000 people, a true dream metropolis is evolving in Black Rock City, NV.

The Ten Principles of Burning Man:

Radical Inclusion
Anyone may be a part of Burning Man. We welcome and respect the stranger. No prerequisites exist for participation in our community.

Gifting
Burning Man is devoted to acts of gift giving. The value of a gift is unconditional. Gifting does not contemplate a return or an exchange for something of equal value.

Decommodification
In order to preserve the spirit of gifting, our community seeks to create social environments that are unmediated by commercial sponsorships, transactions, or advertising. We stand ready to protect our culture from such exploitation. We resist the substitution of consumption for participatory experience.

Radical Self-reliance
Burning Man encourages the individual to discover, exercise and rely on his or her inner resources.

Radical Self-expression
Radical self-expression arises from the unique gifts of the individual. No one other than the individual or a collaborating group can determine its content. It is offered as a gift to others. In this spirit, the giver should respect the rights and liberties of the recipient.

Communal Effort
Our community values creative cooperation and collaboration. We strive to produce, promote and protect social networks, public spaces, works of art, and methods of communication that support such interaction.

Civic Responsibility
We value civil society. Community members who organize events should assume responsibility for public welfare and endeavor to communicate civic responsibilities to participants. They must also assume responsibility for conducting events in accordance with local, state and federal laws.

Leaving No Trace
Our community respects the environment. We are committed to leaving no physical trace of our activities wherever we gather. We clean up after ourselves and endeavor, whenever possible, to leave such places in a better state than when we found them.

Participation
Our community is committed to a radically participatory ethic. We believe that transformative change, whether in the individual or in society, can occur only through the medium of deeply personal participation. We achieve being through doing. Everyone is invited to work. Everyone is invited to play. We make the world real through actions that open the heart.

Immediacy
Immediate experience is, in many ways, the most important touchstone of value in our culture. We seek to overcome barriers that stand between us and a recognition of our inner selves, the reality of those around us, participation in society, and contact with a natural world exceeding human powers. No idea can substitute for this experience.]]> http://sillysoft.net/lux/maps/Black%20Rock%20City Sillysoft Games 2011-09-26T00:00:00-04:00 http://sillysoft.net/lux/maps/Siege%20Lux

STORY:
Since the beginning there have been two churches, the Semi-Holy Church and the Anti-Holy Church, vying for control of Luxtopia. For years the two churches have competed for the hearts and minds of Luxtopia's citizens. The battles fought between them have been bloody, but inconclusive. This uneasy stalemate persisted for many moons. Then, in a bold and audacious move, a Semi-Holy Lieutenant out flanked the leader of the Anti-holy Church and beat him at his own game. The Anti-holy forces were forced to flee. Now, the Semi-holy forces have finally cornered the rebellious Anti-holies in their remote fortress nestled deep in the North Shore Mountains. The five ruthless and tyrannical Semi-Holy commanders have surrounded Castle Brienë and are laying siege to the revolutionaries within. With time running out and moral low, the Anti-holies stage one last offensive in a desperate attempt to turn the tide of the battle and finally secure power over Luxtopia. Lord Quasar is watching. Don't let Luxtopia fall into the wrong hands!

RULES:
-The Catapults can attack the two front towers indicated by the dotted lines and arrows, but the towers cannot attack back.

-The are 3 ways into and out of Castle Brienë, the drawbridge, the backdoor, and the secret Escape Tunnel running through the mountains.

-Take the Stairs to reach the castle walls, and the ladders to reach the towers.

WARS OF THE ROSES

The Wars of the Roses (1455–1485) were a series of civil wars fought over the throne of England between adherents of the House of Lancaster and the House of York. Both houses were branches of the Plantagenet royal house, tracing descent from King Edward III.

The name "Wars of the Roses" is not thought to have been used during the time of the wars, but has its origins in the badges associated with the two royal houses, the Red Rose of Lancaster and the White Rose of York. The term itself came into common use only in the nineteenth century, after the publication of Anne of Geierstein by Sir Walter Scott.

DETAILS
Gameplay is similar to Classic Risk. The 10 continents range from having 4-8 territories and are worth from 2-6 bonus points. The bonus points are dependent upon the number of countries and the number of borders they have with other continents.

BATTLEPLANETS: HEGEMONY OF SIRAX

The death of Lord Eruyk in 2791 EY marked the beginning of what historians call the Hegemony of Sirax. Since Lord Eruyk had no heirs, the six regional viceroys began to consolidate their power, hoping to exert their political will and become the next Imperator.

Within 2 years the political maneuverings gave way to outright bloodshed, marking the bloodiest 20 years in the history of the Endar Empire.

By 2796 EY, the Viceory of Sirax had established herself as the strongest contender by forging an alliance with the Viceory of Gaus. Shortly thereafter, the other Viceroys formed alliances of their own: Alderst/Frestern and Vispar/Rubius.

One by one, Sirax was able to slowly expand her control over the others. Finally, in 2813 EY the Viceroy of Sirax forced Vispar to submit to her rule, enabling her to claim the title of Imperator.


DETAILS
Gameplay is different than most maps since there are no continents, just planets.

Planets come in two sizes: large and small. The large planets (Seats of the Viceroys) are worth three times as much as the small planets.

Friday, April 14, 1865.

John Wilkes Booth has just shot President Lincoln at Ford's Theater in Washington D.C. Jumping from the presidential balcony, he shouts "Sic Semper Tyrannis" before fleeing out a back alleyway to a waiting horse.

In the commotion, Booth escaped capture and made it across the Navy Yard Bridge into Maryland. He received weapons at supplies at Mary Surratt's Tavern before continuing on to the house of Dr. Samuel Mudd. Dr. Mudd sets a broken leg Booth suffered in the leap to the stage and lets the men rest at his home.

Later, they continue south toward Virginia, gaining assistance from Oswell Swann, Samuel Cox and William Lucas along the way.

The union cavalry finally caught up with Booth at Garrett's Farm where he had holed up in the barn.

One hundred years after Luther published his Ninety-Five Theses, Western Europe is a powder keg of sectarian tensions.

"From the mythical cradle of human thought in the Garden of Eden, to the farthest reaches of human imagination, the map plots out mankind's achievements, trials, and tribulations throughout history. We have constructed a world made up of our own actions and beliefs, as much as the one formed by the land we live on. The map of humanity is formed by our thought, our feelings, our dreams, and our nightmares"

By the year 260 the once all-powerful Roman Empire has slid into division and chaos and teeters on the brink of extinction. Decades of military despotism, civil wars, barbarian incursions, and plague and famine outbreaks have shattered political control, and a series of emperors have all gone down in fast and bloody succession. In 260, Valerian becomes the only Roman emperor ever to be captured alive, by Rome's biggest foreign threat, the Persian Empire, leaving Valerian's dissolute son and heir Gallienus to face threats from Germanic invaders and multiple would-be usurpers of the throne. In the west, Britain, Gaul, and Spain have been claimed as a new "Gallic Empire," ruled by puppet generals under the noblewoman Victoria. In the east, power has been seized by another ambitious woman: Zenobia, a beautiful and warlike descendant of Cleopatra, who styles herself Queen of the East from her base in Palmyra, Syria. This is the height of Rome's "Crisis of the 3rd Century," and Rome's only hope lies in a series of Illyrian peasant generals who attempt to seize imperial power, defend the borders, preserve the Roman Empire, and make it whole again.]]> http://sillysoft.net/lux/maps/ROME%20-%20Peril%20of%203%20Empires%20260AD Calvinius & Johnicus 2011-03-28T00:00:00-04:00 http://sillysoft.net/lux/maps/Florida%20-%20Seminole%20Wars

The year is 1817, for decades the amalgamation of various Indian tribes and runaway slaves in Florida has been a tinderbox waiting to explode. Destructive and bloody raids by the dubbed “Seminole” Indians have taken their toll on American patience. Instigated by the British and supplied by the Spanish, the Seminoles are getting more daring and more vicious in their attacks. On November 30, a small band of Indians massacre 50 men, women and children aboard an American supply ship on the Apalachicola River. President Monroe sees this as an opportunity to finally cede Florida and eject the Spanish. He has ordered famed Indian fighter and hero of the Creek War, General Andrew Jackson, to invade and destroy the hostile Indians. The ruthless and brilliant Jackson has readied his ragtag group of Tennessee Volunteers and is poised to exact American revenge. The most prolonged conflict in American history is about to erupt! Will Jackson succeed and finally conquer the unconquerable Seminoles? Will the resilient and resourceful Seminoles endure? Or will the Spanish exploit them both and secure a strong foothold in Florida? You decide! The Seminole Wars have begun!

It's December 7, 1941 and Japanese forces have launched a daring air raid on the U.S. fleet at Pearl Harbor. Suddenly the United States is thrown into World War II and forced to grapple with the empire of Japan for control of the Pacific. The British, pre-occupied with Hitler in Germany, must rely on their outposts of India and Australia to ward off the Japanese onslaught! The future of the Pacific is in your hands! Allies are essential!

Now for the rules of the map. Similar to the World War 1 map, the dotted lines are not lines of attack, but borders for the sea zones. The squares in the sea zones represent fleets. In order to attack an island you must first take control of a sea zone adjacent to it by taking the fleet. Sea zones can attack any adjacent sea zone or coastal/island territory. Any coastal/island territory can attack any adjacent fleet.

First in the Pirateers Series Pirateers - Avast Ye! It's 1718, and the Caribbean Islands are full of plundering pirateers and bloodthirsty bands of murdering scalawags. Just ahead of the British Navy and the hangman's noose, five of the most notorious pirate crews ever to roam the Seven Seas have descended on Pirate Cay to recover their buried treasure. Har har! A pirate's life for me! Thanks to SMAUG for the description! AAARRRRGG!

Version 4.8 includes a 5 player starting scenario.]]> http://sillysoft.net/lux/maps/Pirateers%20-%20Avast%20Ye%21 Bob McCartney (BarStar) 2011-02-28T00:00:00-05:00 http://sillysoft.net/lux/maps/Roman%20Empire%20c300AD

The Roman Empire circa 300AD, around the time of Diocletian and Constantine. Be a Prefect and conquer the known world from your own Diocese, or unite the Barbarian Hordes and destroy the Empire.
VERSION 2.0 6/27/05 - Now with a scenario: It is the first of May, 305 AD. After splitting the Empire in two in 286 AD, Diocletian and Maximian abdicate their positions in the tetrarchy as co-Augusti. Diocletian tries to maintain order and make the right appointments, but there are many who aspire to the throne.
First player: You are Constantine, son of Constantius, appointed Caesar of the West but hailed Augustus Emperor at York by your troops. You control Spain, Gaul, Germany and Britain. With visions of the Cross you seek your destiny. Reunite the Empire, by sweeping East over the rebellious pretenders to the throne!
Second Player: You are Maxentius, son of Maximian, hailed as legitimate successor to the Empire by the Praetorian Guard and the city of Rome and heading the revolt against Constantine. You have control over Italy, Raetia, North Africa, and, because you're a clever little rebel, the hordes of HIbernia. Can you put a stop to Constantine's "divine" destiny with your vast army?
Third Player: You are Licinius, a master of Roman politics with friends in all the right places. Galerius has helped you to be appointed Augustus of the West with control over Pannonia and the Balkans. Soon you are destined to hold the entire Eastern Empire. However, despite your shrewd marriage to Constantine's sister, your alliance with Constantine is tenuous. Will you escape your eventual execution?
Fourth Player: You are Maximinus II Daia, believer in the old Roman gods. Newly appointed Caesar of the East, you exercise vicious and tyrannical control over Jews and Christians in the Diocese of Orientis. Poised to conquer the Anatolian Penninsula with your superior numbers, you are also destined to be crushed by Licinius before he succumbs in turn to Constantine. Can you change history and return the Empire to its Pagan glory?
Fifth Player: You are Galerius, appointed successor to Diocletian as Augustus of the Eastern Empire. You control the Anatolian Penninsula and Thrace. You have the support of Maximinus II Daia, but are succumbing to disease. Can you heal and assert your dominion?
Sixth Player: You are...Attila the Hun! (I know its a bit early, just go with it) You've swept across the Russian plains and decimated indigineous tribes. Have you finally exhausted your murderous reach, or will you teach those high-and mighty Romans a thing or two first?

I tried to balance things as best I could while still trying to have some historcial basis for the placements. So, please note that any suggestions for refinement are welcome. Just post in teh Map forum or send me a private message.
Have fun.
