I prefer the "Amarr/Minmatar selected low security systems map" over the dotlan map (dotlan has great info I just think there is too much info that I personally don't care about).

I could not find one for caldari/gallente so I made one with MS Paint. It's complete trash, but for me it's easier to look at than the dotlan map. (Again, I really like dotlan for info, just not for using as a map).

It's about 14x crappier than the Amarr/Minmatar one.

Anyone find this at all useful?

edit: if I missed something lmk and I try to put it in.

i use this fairly often (works for all warzones)

how to fix eve: 1) remove ECM 2) rename dampeners to ECM 3) add new anti-drone ewar for caldari 4) give offgrid boosters ongrid combat value

I actually really like your map, but then again I'm so old I used to love the original pre-dotlan maps done by some minnie character dude I forget the name of...

Particularly like the inclusion of the high sec constellation including Ichoriya which shows where the squids will all live soon. P

Sorry should have just done a search earlier... Eve 2d maps...

Ombey of course I meant!

I remember clogging up the work printer queue for ages printing a book-sized wodge of paper maps of every region; even drew features like stations on them myself (in Null there were like almost none then) as Serenity Celestine's outpost alert reported new ones.

As I said though your map looks much more funky and a bit like a London tube map (arguably one of the easiest best designed maps about) so well done you and that original inspiration.

thank goodness the target audience isn't exclusively for veterans with the map in their head!
