Tippecanoe

Took too much time with my other hobby (alternate history) to play much Runescape.

Made a map for a contest Alternate History is having:





In the real world Gov. Harrison won the battle and went on to become president of the USA.

In my made-up version of history a mistake fails to happen and Harrison loses. -In the real-world some troop were mistakenly sent to the wrong spot and later they turned out to be critical to Harrison's victory. I figure in my made-up version of history Techumsa would not die fighting for the British in the War of 1812 and would live to face Andrew Jackson during the Creek Wars. Andrew Jackson: another Indian killer that became president - aint' history grand.

When ever I think the current world is going to hell-in-a-handbasket, I take a look at history and see how much worse things used to be.

Wow! Really great and interesting map. You have a great hobby. I kind of do kind of a similar thing in my Mindrimon blog. (if you don't know, I'm Fire-Nile from RuneWise)
