As most of you are no doubt aware. Blackbox now has its own Astrogranite pitch, and all the Major Tournaments have their own pitch as well.
I have also started working on 1 pitch for each race, possibly for the XFL, but also for the future. At some point we will be able to use custom pitches in L division.
Anyway, this is so you can see what I have done so far and also provide feedback. So feedback all you like. I can't promise I will agree with your feedback and make the changes you suggest, though I may do, depending on what you say
Anyway. Below are first 3 I have done. We have a Human pitch (Pirate), we have a Necromantic pitch (Graveyard), and a Vampire pitch (Gothic Castle). There is also an Amazon pitch here, I did not do this one though, Ziocrock did before he left the site. So feedback on that one if you like, but it is unlikely to ever change unless he returns.
NB: also this pitches are auto resized by the site to fit in the forum, if you want to see them in their true size right click on the image and view image.

It is not possible to use these pitches yet. Only Blackbox and official Tournaments have new pitches at the moment. To see them you must play either in those tournaments or that division. |

Awesome! Great job. By the way, Rocky is the best, its not even close. Stallone was starting so well with Rocky and First blood, then it all went wrong. |

I think its funny that people are voting Rambo, they clearly think that was the first even though it was the 4th lol or people just have really bad taste! |

Yep, first blood got my vote, though it's close between that and Rocky. I like all the Rockys up to 4. Can't beat a bit of Dolph! First Blood 2 is shocking though, and anyone who votes for it needs a talking to. |

i can only see one pitch in your post garion ? probably me being daft.
just started a box game and loving the Astrogranite* !
I think it would benefit from being a shade or two lighter though. Players can be hard to see after taking an action . |

I can only see one too.
I like it, however if I had to guess I would have thought it was Wood Elf not Necromantic. I dislike the grave stones however, they seem a little artificial. |

By the way, have you got the 'dots' as a layer? I think those would be most handy for anyone who wishes to create pitches. |

Agree that the dots/lines as a layer would be good... then we could see who could do the wackiest pitch to add
I agree with people above, I love the look of the necro pitch but think the gravestones don't look quite right (I thought the graves were shadows as well to start...) I think the gate shadow itself could be enough to give a necro feel, maybe with the addition of a sinister-looking tree shadow as well?
Just nit-picking now... I have nowhere near the artistic ability to do anything like this |

I think it may not look quite gothic enough because you can only see the Sunny pitch
hopefully and admin will okay the others soon, but I agree the grave stones need work.
edit: they are now authorised
If anyone wants the dots, just PM me. |

How much criticism/critique did you want? I'm always wary of critiquing things I know I couldn't do myself, but if you're after any comments then I have a few |
