Looking for some better maps


Heraclea

Recommended Posts

I am looking for maps that could with some imagination depict:

 

- An airport of some kind.  I have found the Mercy Island map full of Arachnos flyers.  I keep thinking I could do better, if only because the Arachnos theme doesn't really work in a heroic setting.  I seem to remember there being an outdoor Cap au Diable map featuring a hangar of some sort, but I can't for the life of me find it.  Any other suggestions would work too.

 

- A working hospital.  I know about Mother Mayhem's ruined hospital maze, but that doesn't really work here.  Currently using the University basement.  Any better ideas?

I think you may have found all the options... 

 

For an airport hanger, you could place some destructible Longbow Chasers in a large warehouse to help imagine the effect - but that it the only idea that comes to mind... 

 

For one of my arcs I had hoped for the Sky Raider Hanger on Striga which is what I think you may be remembering with Cap, but its not an AE map.

Can't help you on the airport front but as far as hospitals go, there are heroside missions in the standard office set that say they're hospital offices and that never bothered me any. Also, if it fits, you might consider Praetorian biotech?

I did run into a map in Darmian's Dark Deeds arc (which was fun) that was a real jet fighter/helicopter hanger - but not a commercial airport. I explored a few of the new warehouse maps after he shared which he used and found that room in medium 4, large 2 and 5 I think. 

 

I ended up swapping out a map in one of my missions for one of those - that sky raider hanger i mention above - great room I don't recall seeing before.

 

The  Unique > Outdoor > Longbow Sea Base map has an airstrip. It's that longbow base island out in Nerva - which may be what you were thinking of from Cap.

Chiming in: Darmian is a very good person to go to for maps, as well as details on the window dressing within them. 

 

P.S. If you do speak to him, whisper "carriage return...":-)

I have done a TON of AE work, both long form and single arc. Just search the AE mish list for my sig @cranebump. For more information on my stories, head to the AE forum sub-heading and look for “Crane’s World.” Support your AE authors! We ARE the new content.
