Begrezen, the winner of the first edition of the MapMaker competition, prepared for those who like to create their own scenarios. A guide for mapmakers, or a set of instructions on what to do and what not to do when preparing your own map. The guide also includes a description of the map editor and the campaign editor.
Michael took care of the layout of the guide.
I strongly encourage you to read the entire text.
