I hate to break it to you Zyme86 but I think you would be better server to post this champaign setting on to the champaign workshop forum. (There is a link in my sig "put your's here") That a place for multiple different worlds. WCP is about one world combining elements of M:TG and D&D. That said, if your interested we could always use a region to play with! I think this is the first "overland map" I have see posted here! Not too shabby :tiphat: |
