No, this is not strictly a Total War question, and I would have posted it in the history discussion, except I'm not allowed to yet! :no:
Anyway, I have to do a small talk on Sparta tomorrow and I want a good-looking Powerpoint to back it up. Does anyone have a good-looking map of ancient Greece (the ones I've seen so far all look too basic/cluttered) where I can draw on shapes to represent the various countries' territories and get them to flash etc. (like in the RTW Alexander historical battle thing)?
Basically, I'd like a map which:
Looks good
Isn't too simplistic - in fact, it should have the correct coastlines etc., not incorrect, approximate coastlines
Preferably isn't completely filled with information, although I can live with that.
Also, does anyone know of any links to a map of the world around the time of the height of Sparta (I'm doing a bit on Thermopylae, so around 480 BC is great) that's made in an "old style"? Again, correct coastlines etc. please, just made in an "old-fashioned" way, just to use as a background.
Thank you very much! :beam:
