Musings of a few ideas

I was originally thinking of creating an RPG that would run similiar to a Loap, but then I saw someone with more experience steal my idea. So now I'm changing my plans a bit and I'm thinking about the 2003 DM modification used in a game, and that got me to thinking if I made a custom map for it and changed all the characters around, then maybe it would get more ppl to actually roleplay for the game.

Crazy question, would it be easier to simply rewrite all the possible map scenarios in this DM modification, or would it be easier to try it with just 3 teams first?

DM, Team 1, Team 2

I was also thinking of making 2 versions one standard version for RoC then 1 with more 'demons' in it for tft.

Can all terrain from TfT be used in RoC?

I don't know, I like to know everything before I try to start a major project.

The best way of learning what is and isn't in the Terrain between tft and roc is to experiment; as I recall, you can adjust the tilesets under the Advanced menu; if you choose a multitude of "1" tiles (which use less memory) from the different map settings, you should be able to experiment quickly. There is a very small and discreet tab on the bottom bar of the terrain editor; when you move your mouse over it, it highlights and dictates whether the map is custom or melee, and I think it may also include information on whether or not the map can be played in both or only tft. Hope that helps.
