Title: HLP map
Post by: Tiara on June 20, 2004, 09:26:51 am
Ok, I was bored and needed something to do. So I decided to rip off an idea from another board and 'make' a HLP map. I took the map of Middle-Earth and started thinking of putting names on there from our board.

Like 'Maeglamordor' instead of Mordor, or HLP's Deep instead of Helm's Deep :p

If you want your name on the map make a suggestion. You can also have something new on th uninhabitet parts of the map like 'Windrunner's Forest' :p

Here's the orginal map I used (http://www.redbrick.dcu.ie/~tomo/merp/maps/middleearth2_c.jpg)

Can I have that small islet next to Mount Mindolluin/Cair Andros?

Call it Isle of Sikh. :)

What about all those small islands next to it? 'The Isles of Sikh'.

It is kinda small though :p Wouldn't Tolfalas be better for you? (Next to South Gondor).

You should make it a station map instead of a world map :D

Could I be put somewhere like in Rohan's territory? :D

Plateau of Ghostavo? (Gorgoroth in Mordor)

Shrike would be perfect for the Shire :D

Wherever the pirates are, Corsair is.

Somewhere in the south, preferably, like where the pirates came from at the end of Return of the King.

Hate to say it, but Spacebattles.com wasn't the first site to create a map showing their users on it.

Fair play.. plus he only had a mace. You get an axe. Not much in way of competition.

Well, I let him do his thing the first time cuz, you know, I don't mind a bit of war, destruction and despair at times. But that moron did it twice and failed twice. And they call him 'powerfull'. If he were really powerfull he'd have chosen something else to be than a damned eye sitting on top of my home.

Stupid prick. He didn't even pay the rent before dying...
