Long overdue it's time to announce the next contest. This contest is a little more demanding, but users will be given 2 months, with the possibility for an extension if necessary.
Theme:
What are you supposed to do? Pick your favorite board game and make it into a map. I am certainly not expecting a huge map with loads of features, you can do as little or as much as you want.

Risk
Monopoly
Checkers

Chutes and Ladders
Candy Land
Stratego
Life
Connect 4
Battleships
Mancala
