Hello!

Just a quick couple of notes about the considerable changes to the game.  

The main focus for the development of the new version of the game was two-fold: 1)  quality-of-life improvements, and 2) improving the scoring system. With these in mind, here are some key updates that have been made:

Key Updates to Fantasy Map Maker

1. a one-page Game Sheet that consolidates the Feature Wheel and Map
2. an optional Event system that adds an additional challenge to the game, as well as more "fantasy" elements to the map
3. 21 cards for Quests and Events that feature original artwork for better visual clarity
4. a simplified Feature Wheel with changes to end game condition to allow the game to reliably have the game end in about 30-60 minutes
5. Landmark features (castle, outpost, ruins, and ship) that offer a special ability to the player
6. 5 different Quest types with each Quest earning a maximum of 20 points, so that the highest possible score is 100; the new Quest system is not any less challenging but much easier on cognitive load when playing
7. more streamlined rules and map features
8. overall improvement to art and graphic design quality

At some point, I will likely go into more detail about the process of making these changes, but for now, I just wanted to list the main updates.
