Map!

[Loony BoB]

Proto and I have finished. :) I have a map on my home PC detailing the boundaries of each region, although I'll probably just upload some edited versions of these newer maps (my one is based on my pencil-sketched drawing, not Proto's spiffy one that I've linked).

Hope you like it.

There will be 23 regions of varied sizes.

[Nait]

Looking good thair.

[Cz]

That's a cool world you got there. I suppose each race will start in a different area?

[Flying Mullet]

That is very cool.

But 23 seems like a lot of regions, and if not enough people are int othis you'll only end up with 1-2 people per region and some empty, with no big cities. Depending upon how many people are interested you might want to shrink the number of regions to force people in making a couple of cities.

[The Captain]

Mullet raises a good concern, but then again, we can try to be ambitious right and get a lot of folk involved?

Nice map, by the by.

Take care all.

[Shoeberto]

Did you draw and color that by hand? That's slick.

[Phil]

when do we get to claim stuff... or are we going to? :confused:

spectacular map BoB. i like the shading!

[Agent Proto]

I did the shading. He just did the worldmap in general.

[Proxy]

oh well...great job pr00t.
I'm really looking forward to how well this will work out!

[Rase]

Very nice looking.

That's very nice, Nait. :D

[Rase]

*agrees with Proto*

[Proxy]

Toldya nait should do the coloring, shading, labeling, etc

[Loony BoB]

I like it, but we won't use it as the main map because it's not very simple and you need things to be simple for base maps. :) But it's a good alternative map. =D I likes.

EDIT: Although if you think you can adjust the water so it doesn't vary so much...

[Nait]

Like THIS?

<del>Sorry for the JPG, but for some reason the PNG is screwy. Hrm.</del>

EDIT: changed to PNG.

EDTI: Looks better in this mode with black shores. Changed.

[Loony BoB]

...I think so. I'll have to check on my home PC because it has a better monitor. *nods*

Those persons who haven't yet got around to do anything are in red. Shaaaame. :shame:

[Rainecloud]

Nice, although the gigantic killer slugs are bothering me a bit.

[Wyllius]

Nice map, but it's Entremont.

[Nait]

Oops. Fixed on the source. Can't arse to upload.

[-N-]

Oh hey, Nait's just south of Fiorenso. Too bad we can't travel over sea just yet.

And on the searoute (helpfully shown on the map) from Fiorenseo to Zhem is the unknown Vincentland, the potentionally hostile and reactionary nutcase Queendom of Elennanórë, and the probably benign Nation of Aura.
:eek:

[Az Lionheart]

erm what is the blue line that leads to my loverly capital Canterbubble?

[Nait]

They're sea-routes.

[Az Lionheart]

OOOHHHHHHHHHHH i get it now.........
thanx

[Loony BoB]

I love the map. :) That's awesome!

I just realised I forgot to place one of the original sea routes on my map up top - there should be one between Town Over Yonder and Aztopia. Just so y'no. :)

[Az Lionheart]

k, i will try to remeber :D

[Nait]

I'm adding searoutes by conscience - ie. what I think are likely searoutes. There's no one in Town Over Yonder right now, so no one bothers to go there. <_< >_> I'll add searoutes as soon as Niko gets around to do something.

[Loony BoB]

Yeah, I was just letting you know since my map didn't have it so it might have caused questions.

[Az Lionheart]

if they dont do anything can i expand into the island cos at the mo i just have a desert and all i get get from it is lovely sand but no-one else really wants sand :(

[Loony BoB]

Nobody's going to be taking over anything - don't forget you don't own the entirity of your region anyway, unless you're all going to be happy to recognise each other's borders. pr00t and I are talking about how to expand your nations, so hopefully we'll have something for you soon. There's the possibility that you guys might organise your own national borders (as would normally happen in any real world). There's also the possibility that you'll be able to put a town in any location on the map that's closer to your towns than any other nation's towns. As for how you get new towns, I'm happy for suggestions (nothing complicated, please), although we might just end up "giving" them to people as we see fit. There's also the possibility of EoFF member = town, or activity = town, or something like that. Try to think of fair ideas rather than ideas that would advantage yourselves. :p

[Nait]

Natural borders! :D Like in the real-world. How much land would a city control? Could you control the land between cities?

I'll make a map with "sphere of influence" borders, centered on the cities.


EDIT:

Something like THIS?

The reds are Nations without capitals and a thread, and blues are Nations without threads.

Can we sticky this? It's really useful for ambassadors.

NEW BORDERS! Changed font size for ALL political names to smaller, in order to fit. Added Myst and New Canada, and tweaked the map in the light of new information.

[Psychotic]

Nait forgot to add my new city :(

And my NEW NEW City. Whenever I decide to build another one. (I have 6 members :))

Come to think of it, maybe the more citizens = more cities rule wasn't such a good idea after all. :mad:

If the roles were reversed and YOU had 6 members, would you say that then? Didn't think so.

At least you could put some real effort in that blasted desert of intellectuality you dare call "nation"! >:O

Fine, here's your stupid city... *grmbl grmbl*

My nation isn't supposed to be intellectual. It's supposed to appeal to people. And apparently it does. :cool:

And thankee :love:

[Nait]

Y'know what I'm gonna do? I'm going to change the names! Every single map from here on will read instead of "Super Shiny Land" and "Psychoticville" and "Monkey Town", it's going to read "Esdham", "Omran" and "Isdhirgadh". >:O

[Psychotic]

Y'know what I'm gonna do? When I invade "Zhem", I'm going to rename it "Petting Zoo".

[Nait]

Pfft, you'll never invade Zhem. Cause first you'd have to invade Serenity to get to Eisgaea, the Neifelheim to get inside Eisgae (or alternatively Aztopia - I don't think anyone would conquer Desierto), then you must get all the way, through the mountains and Elennanóre and New Canada to the southern shores, and from there you must invade Aura, and THEN you could, possibly, try to invade Zhem.

[Loony BoB]

xD Now, now, boys.

[Psychotic]

That's what you think. I have a better plan than that :D



xD Now, now, boys.


Awwwww, come on. You WANT entertainment, remember? :p

[Nait]

AND if you're thinking of invading all the way through the oceans, seas and continents between us, well, then you're nuts.

Why do I get the feeling that Psy will soon dominate the world?

Never mind, Nait. Whatever his plan is, your nation has a better name, and nothing will change that. :p

[Agent Proto]

I'll go ahead and unsticky this thread and sticky Nait's new thread. This thread should still be use for discussions, if any, and the new thread will strictly be for the maps. *nod*

[Nait]

Thank you. *nod*

You might want to tell people not to post in the new thread, before they ruin it with uselessness. :p

[fire_of_avalon]

Hi.

I don't really know if I should make a post about this or not, but Fiorenso has an additional city on it's largest island. The island in question is now called Tuillevaem, and the port city Ava'lone. I think Neel posted a version of Fiorenso's modified map in the Fiorenso thread, so uhh... just a heads up about that to the mapmakers :)

[-N-]

And the port city on the mainland is called Kazetana.
