I\'d assume using the free-camera controls.  Go to the camera view by hitting \'m\'.  It\'s not the third-person view that follows you around.  You can rotate the camera by holding the left mouse button, and zoom it by holding both buttons.  There is no limit on the zoom, so you can get a really high in the sky view.  There are a few maps just like this.

That\'s not where the 2 town guards are... :|
They\'re right in front of the tavern.

well, as you can see on that screenie it is some sort of guards headquarters, you can\'t do anything there yet, but I\'m sure there will be something there in the future.

(http://q-news.sourceforge.net/temp/ao/map/guards.jpg)

that\'s the pic, what towers are you talking about??

you can see the door is different then the other doors in game(it\'s not flat) and there\'s a sign above it like Xalthar said so that\'s why i included it in the map..

I always refer to that place as the sheriff\'s office...  ;)
Never thought of it as the guard\'s office though, I like the idea though. Only it\'s a bit secluded for a law enforcement office (in an alley).

Good map Icefalcon.
You got the tavern wrong though. On the map you made the tavern is above/over/north-ish of the statue, while the number is beneath/under/south-ish of the statue.

Hmm... About your sherrifs office, i think it is some sort of magic or alchemist shop. (maybe the one from the quest?) because of the (filled) pentagram with circle.

#2 should be Temple of Laanx, not temple to laanx, the tavern should be on the other side of the azure spire and it\'s a bit blurry. other than that it\'s a nice map, and a lot more 56k friendly than mine :P.

About the Guard\'s Office, i\'m not sure what it is either, it could be anything. I guess we\'ll have to wait till CB to see what it is :)
