New Map - Lodoss,
Lodoss, the Accursed Island. For those of you that don't know, this map comes from the series Record of Lodoss Wars. I think it would be a real fun addition to the playable maps available.

change a few things around, of course.
not as easy as that because this is commercial and growing constantly they may complain. I believe the maps in question did get permission and that is why they are on but the more the sight grows the less likely they will give permmision

You honestly believe that J.R.R. Tolkien gave permission for us to create a map for a Risk-based game based upon middle earth? No..I didn't think so.
The simple fact is that if you refer to the map by its name (the Middle Earth map is called "Middle Earth" and Diskworld is called "Diskworld") and keep it accurate to the 'world' associated to the book or movie its not copyright infringement. We're not claiming credit for the concept of these maps, its simply reproducing the concepts created by others in a different medium while still giving appropriate credit.
