@Samael the point being his ridge is one sided and does not conceal the map edges very well. A valley layout would work for that.

@specter - have a look at Regnilse's ridge map, that one is maybe closer to what you're looking for.

looks very realistic for a forested, rolling hills terrain. smoothed by time and stuff.
have to take a fly over later, at first glance i'd probably like some more rough, maybe rockier parts.

on the rivers map, when you stand on the side with one river, to the right over the first ridge is a section which i like a lot (those bowls and bumps along the mapedge)

An idea for you could be a forested valley with a clearing for a village/castle similar to this: http://www.wallpaperhi.com/thumbnails/detail/20120629/mountains%20landscapes%20nature%20forest%20valley%202560x1600%20wallpaper_www.wallpaperhi.com_51.jpg

Have an idea for a map? let me know
