I like the rain-fog combo you have there, this seems to be one of those maps where it actually appears to be raining.

Gunboats as in... actual gunboats? That's new.

Anyway, I wish you luck (even though I don't think you'll need it). :wink:

Yep. Based on the skiff but will be enclosed. Can't go on land. Might give the pilot torpedoes (as in underwater torpedoes) for some naval battles too. :P

Nice, reminds me of the Haruun Kal map from the older Conversion Packs. Ah, the good ol' days.

Very nice Skyhammer. Good ambiance. Is this how you determined how much water you could have on a map?

Initially was, yep. But I've set it so that becaue of the fog its easily inside the limit.
