Mighty Empires Rulebook

MAP GENERATOR You can use the tiles to represent part of the Warhammer World, or you can invent your own maps or you can generate a landscape by taking and placing random tiles as described here. A number of examples are shown on the cover of this instruction booket. It is easy to mke arger maps by combining two or more sets o Mighty Empires together Here's a handy way o generating a map by pacing random tiles:
