Thoughts on building campaign Maps for wargaming centred around the Dux Bellloram play test but more generally applicable

all written in Sid's unique style.

I have had a proper look at the Maps article & noticed the links to the maps of Roman Britain & I intend to borrow parts of them to base my campaign map for Dux Beloum on. Even better stuff than my first bleary eyed reading at 4am suggested & it struck me a pretty damned good then.
