How to Create Maps in Total War

"Total War" is a gaming series distributed by Sega (Sega.com) and created by the Creative Assembly (Creative-Assembly.co.uk). You become a country's leader and must fight battles to takeover enemy players' lands. You command armies on a battlefield through a variety of maps. You can customize your maps by accessing a hidden feature. Enabling this option requires a bit of file alteration.
