Battlefields

Initially I wanted to go for a very stark simple approach to the battlefield; these concepts were a way to show how we could handle detail with shadow definition and make the playable space a fairly clean arena for your action to play out on.
The Fog of War image was the kicking off point of a bunch of tech that resulted in an amazing looking fluid-sim FoW that interacted cleanly with your army as you moved about the map - to my mind, a much more engaging improvement over the standard black void that is fog of war in most games.

If we had done the Lunar landscape as an alternate map we could have explored a return to that black void in concert with the new FoW tech
