That's a lot of scenarios...If you are able to do that, I must say, I am impressed. Good luck!

This sounds excellent

I can't wait to see the pictures!

You (Dantares) also made a good impression with your campaigns. So many hours, wrestling with idea's. Playtested tons and tons of other work of other people.

I don't like the screens!But I'll give you some advice how to make the maps better.
1.Desert - make desert with mixing desert, dirt 1 and dirt 2.It will be good to add some elevations.First for nice view, second for strategy at fighing.Add lakes of oasis and next to them some flowers with leaves, dirt 3 and grass 3.You can add there and some bushes or jungle bushes.The trees must be forest trees and palm trees.
2.Roads - mix broken roads and usual roads.But no fungus roads(if you are in the desert).When place roads in cities do not make the whole city of only road or broken road.Add some desert, dirt 1 and dirt 2.And add some trees(which I said up).Add and some elevations.And mix the roads.
I hope this will help you!

yes those screenshots look fairly ordinary, almost as if you used an arabia random map. you need to detail the map alot more by blending terrain, using elevation and adding eye candy suck as rocks, cracks, craters etc

Thanks for the tips guys !
About the fact some maps look like Arabia Random , ive based my maps on them..not made them of a Arabia Random,i am not very good in the map design part but when i first saw Arabia Random maps i thought thats how the holly land pretty much look likes so at 2 maps i made some things that look like the Arabia map.About the playtesting : For the First Crusade its indeed a bit late for Beta testing , cause The_Slayer90 is almost ready testing but maybe for the Second and/ore Third Crusade you can
