Summary
This is a minimally terrain template that includes Europe, North Africa and parts of Eurasia and Asia Minor.

It features major river systems that are naval pathable and various mountain ranges.

My goal for this template was to create geographically recognizable land masses/coast lines and islands including their major rivers and mountain ranges.

It's detail is pretty minimal in terms of doodads and terrain textures.

There are some geographical inaccuracies for size and position in certain places. It is not 1 to 1 as I'd like it to be but is incredibly difficult to do.

Map Creation Method
I made the map by referencing google maps. I counted the large grid boxes from left to right and used that determine how many miles would be represented in a grid square. I then used google map's measure distance functionality to measure the square region on google maps that I wanted to recreate in the world editor and took the total miles of the square's length I created in google map and divide it by the number of large grid squares in the world editor map from one of sides. This gives us how many miles each grid square is supposed to represent. With that information knowing your start position on google maps you can start measuring inside google maps to determine how many quarters of the large grid region in the world editor will be needed to represent your google map measurement. Rinse and repeat this until your done. You can be as detailed as you want with your measurements as well. After making this template I would not recommend this method since it's really time consuming and there will be gradual inaccuracies in the terrain you will have to account for. The benefit to the method is it will help you create terrain that can be recognizable in a map if your goal is to try to be precise.

Recommendations
Historical maps, world war maps, capture point maps, etc.

While this is nice and might be useful, it is rather bland and repetitive when there are already others out there as well. Simple. If you want more reviews, you should participate in the The Grand Review Exchange! R U L E S Site Rules Map...
