Title: Kingdoms Map: Selecting territory
Post by: Tiermann on February 01, 2011, 16:12:16
Even though we've gotten pretty far into this I would like to suggest we start over with a completely imaginary map. Using Europe like this risks running into actual Nationalistic feelings and perhaps makes the whole thing a little too close to the real world. A completely imaginary map would prevent that and keep things more in the Fantasy-Play realm.

for example

I think Tim's suggestion is sound! I like it!
Title: Re: Kingdoms Map: Selecting territory
Post by: Playmoholics on February 01, 2011, 16:35:41
Because of Gis' suggestion, count Aaron and I in (if there is still space)!  :wave: Aaron might have a different approach, but I am a mom and to promote the peace I will accept whatever land no one else has claimed or wants. But I might request something along the coast? :D

PS I like the "imaginary map"  :)9

Excellent suggestion Tim!!

I am afraid I must agree :-)

WoT, as the organizer it's your call :-)

Good to see so many people joining!!

I think Tim's idea is great, too! It might keep things much more peaceful, and keep real-life feelings out of it.

yeah but how do we divide that imaginary map!? Souldn't it have to have topography or something like that? geographic accidents, we call them here. I mean... mountains... plains, etc.
Some kind of division
 ???
Title: Re: Kingdoms Map: Selecting territory
Post by: Gis on February 01, 2011, 17:16:38
OK here goes:

We divide the map in little squares (20x20 for example)

Each member gets a random number assigned by WoT.

People choose there "realm" when it is their turn (their number) for however many units they want (max 10 for example)

When everyone is done picking, Wot will make it into a nice map with things that look like actual borders instead of a bunch of squares :-)

We then get to decide on mountains and what not for our OWN realm. If you and a neighbour have different landscapes in mind try and make it work somehow.

Would that work?

It's a good suggestion, but I also like the real map, is it a problem making two scenarios one totaly fantasy and one more historical ?

I think we should really make it a community effort! So I would prefer having everyone on the same map.

Put me down for a place on the fantasy map. I agree using the real map is too contentious and likely to cause bad feeling.

Could we have a little of Georginetto's territory released for others? He seems to have grabbed a lot. I'd like the SE of England please, just the Home Counties, nothing spectacular.

I suppose that is fair.
Just the small tail right?
How about a bit of France? :)
Title: Re: Kingdoms Map: Selecting territory
Post by: WarriorOfToys on February 01, 2011, 20:24:43
Hmm, I guess what you say is true... :hmm:
I myself was beginning to think of using a fantasy map. :-[

Ok, I agree we should switch.
I like your map Tim,
But I would prefer a bigger one.
Ill see if I can find one myself.

I also like Gis' idea for selecting the map.
But the idea of everyone choosing their own topography
sounds like it would take a long time...
So Instead, why not I choose some mayjor topography,
like large mountain ranges, maybe a few large rivers,
and everyone else can work on the finer details?

Or am I getting too controlling. :-[
Title: Re: Kingdoms Map: Selecting territory
Post by: tonguello on February 01, 2011, 20:33:18
I think you are right...the more we have to choose the more complicated  will be. I think some basic topography would be necesary.

I think general topography would be helpful.
There's a cool world map generator using fractals at http://donjon.bin.sh/world/ (http://donjon.bin.sh/world/)
It could be used as a place to start

see my post above Sir WOT i think you should lead this and use a fantasy map. and put me next to grangel as the drums of war are about to start after the tournament festivities complete !!!!
Title: Re: Kingdoms Map: Selecting territory
Post by: WarriorOfToys on February 01, 2011, 22:40:03
Ok, with that green light I will put in some basic topography. :)

Oops, I wish I had checked this thread sooner...
I would have sen your post before going off
and creating my own world out of thin air! :lol:

But since I have it...
How does everyone like this world? ???

(http://img825.imageshack.us/img825/4012/worldmapblank.jpg)

I think I will add a mountain range or two...
But besides that, this is what it will (if you guys like it) look like. :)

I have no special request about topography (mountains, lakes, rivers, islands etc), so Warrior put me wherever you want. Just only I want sea because I have navy.

Great map !!!

Hello, I have just seen this new idea and i can not say that i like it!
If you like to continue this story you must give us a geographic map of fantasy. I have choose my previous land for the topography not because it is my country and all these...
I want a place that i can defend it and it can give me all i need to keep my army alive.

Some friends has bad experience or are very sensitives in that kind of themes and are trying to avoid difficult circumstances. I respect that but I have to say that I am here just for playmofun and not to express any super national feelings. I believe that no map can replace the Europe's one.
Title: Re: Kingdoms Map: Selecting territory
Post by: WarriorOfToys on February 01, 2011, 23:21:23
I am not sure if we are continuing with this map...
But I feel it is probably best.
Whether or not it might cause people to feel differently for other countries,
I don't know... :eh?:
But just in case.

Here I have marked out only 3 mountain ranges,
Leaving lots of room for you guys to create your own topography should you wish to.

(http://img24.imageshack.us/img24/4012/worldmapblank.jpg)

And here I have a lined version,
Please pick an area you would like to hold...
And I will fit all of you in like puzzle pieces. ;)

(http://img146.imageshack.us/img146/751/lined.jpg)

So far, there can be just under 60 people who can join.
(I say just under 60 because there are 1 or 2 areas too small to host a proper Kingdom.)

I have already claimed this plot of land...

You don't want the land to the West?
If not I can divide it between H-5, I-6,
I just want to be sure.

And yes, I can give you the south coast too,
Since it is not much of a territory on it's own...
I was planning to give it up with another box anyway.
So I filled a little bit of it earlier with Teirmann's.
(To be fair.)

Giorginetto,

You are not left with none there are still HUGE parts of the map available. Like WoT said in one of his first messages, this map is able to hold up to ~50 equally sized territories. Like I said earlier in the thread, after we start people can start conquering unclaimed lands! But I actually like th efact we all start with roughly the same sized area :-)

If you can view the map if I send it to you through email just pm me your email address and I will send you the files so you can make a good choice.

Is it alright to give you F-5 instead? You will be right next to Grangel,
and then I can split G-6 between you Grangel and Ronastoo. :)

Hey WoT. Did you get my mail on gmail? Can you PM me another (working) address??

No I haven't. ???
Ummmm PM me, sorry I would do the same,
but these people here are keeping me busy! :P

Please take into account that from an early stage of this conversation I have assked for the very north west or very north east part of the map.  :)

Giorginetto,
I would like to save one of those territories for you,
but I am doubtful these are the ones you want.
as you have not seen the map, I wouldn't want you choosing blindly.

So I will keep those spaces open (sorry Tongello, he asked first)
But I wont color them yet.

I'll have the upper right corner (BIG AND SMALL PENINSULAS AND THE LITTLE ISLAND) please! my coats of arms is the golden lion  ;D

How about to keep it fair, I give you J-1 and J-2.
(If Giorginetto doesn't choose to stay there. But IMO he wont.)

And here is the map with letters and numbers to help:

Hey WoT I would love to see the grid map with the territories in it.

Also do you have any idea in mind how many square miles one "square" actually is.

I am working on detailing my part :-)

Thanks for all the hard work, I am thoroughly enjoying it :-)

I was actually thinking about that last night...
I would like to say that one square is about 400 miles wide.

I am refraining from putting the Kingdoms on the squared map,
though I could go back and check off the territories that are taken.
Really I only want to use it as a reference for people choosing their land.
All the nice color stuff is on the other map.
It makes it easier for me not having to color two maps the same. 8}

WoT - are you not able to use layers with your graphics program?
I've taken the last color version and overlayed the grid here. If you want to just update the color version I can quickly put it into this format if you like. It's in Photoshop Elements. If you have that program I can send you the file.

I will settle for I1,I2,J1,J2 as there is more water than land on these. Some squares have so little land its only fair i anbd others ask for a few more squares depending on their preferred location . please confirm its ok for this land to be under my Nuremberg Banner. for the time being as more land will be added I like to think in the near future!!!  ;D ;D ;D ;D

Well thats an interesting question!!

I think thats all about finding a way for the people that are involved to find a satisfactory way to duke it out.

I know Giorginetto and Gangrel will have a RL playmobattle for some of their lands...but other then that I think there are many ways to go!

IMO there are still some nice pieces of land available, and conquering is ALWAYS an option of course :-)

 :wave: My island in A5 is overlapping a little in A4 and I was just wondering if it is possible to have the whole island (just part of the island, not A4)? Not to be greedy, but I think the vikings inhabit that island and you know how vikings can get  ::)

Title: Re: Kingdoms Map: Selecting territory
Post by: Tiermann on February 02, 2011, 18:19:41
If you want a particular spot you might start with negotiation. Talk to the person who has that area and see if you can work something out.

I would think battles are going to either require in person Playmo battles, photo story battles cooperatively between the two combatants, and or a set of battle rules involving die rolls.

I have almost no interest in battles. That's why I chose a peninsula where I would have only 1 border. Since we get to write our own topography my peninsula is a high plateau with valleys - steep cliffs to climb from the sea and no beaches. Making it easily defensible. Conveniently Sweetwater is my land border and we are in alliance so there's no threat there. If Martin ever gets attacked I would send troops to help of course. My guess is that anyone interested in battles will take a spot close to Giorginetto since that area will be the hot spot.

I have a nifty 3D program that lets me do topography. Once we get scale settled I will start by doing the section where Martin and I are located as a test to see how it works out. If it goes well I could eventually do 3D Satellite type views of the entire map.

One square per person tonguello, until everyone who wants to join in has some territory.


Like Tim, I'm not interested in battles with other Playmofriends, just having a location where my Klickies can live in peace, and have small adventures. For people who want to use one particular Playmobil heraldry for their kingdom, fine, but nobody can expect exclusive use of any Playmo heraldry, as we all have klickes in many heraldic styles and will want to use them. If you create your own livery of course that will be exclusive to you.

My land will be a bit like the maps in Oblivion and Morrowind, with several cities, each with its own livery, and rangers and road patrols keeping things together on the roads, rivers, and less populated areas.

Please choose A-2 or A-3.

Playmoholics,
I am afraid your vikings will have to be a little disappointed. ;)
As you can see, A-4 doesn't have much land,
so I would like to keep them as much as possible.
Perhaps you can work something out with the person who gets A-4. :)

And about the war system, I don't think anyone that is participating in this "project" is thinking about a conquering game. I have a puny army (and that's being magnanimous), and I bet many participants also don't have huge military assets. Therefor, it would be very easy for one of the heavy hitters basically take the whole map or at least half of it by invasion. If a "free-for-all" war system is implemented, the game will be very short-lived once all the small nations are taken out.

And like I said in my previous post few people want this to be a War game for the map. But this enables battles to be a lot more interesting for sure :-)

Primus, I can give you G-1 if you want.
Clong only marginally floods into that region because his territory before was so small.
Though I will give you some of the land from H-1 if you want. :wave:

...

I made this map for fun, and I suppose, mostly for photo-stories between kingdoms.
Wars and such are all on the side.
If you want to, you can war with other countries,
but you both must agree. I don't want anyone to feel uncomfortable.

Another point from this is, if Giorginetto wanted to attack Grangel's land,
you can see there is a fairly large gap.
He would either have to make alliances with each and every country between them,
or ok a war between each of them, and win.
Only to reach Grangel with a depleted army.

As it were, if you dont want to fight,
I feel that should automatically create an alliance
where Giorginetto is allowed to move his troops across your land.
(Without repercussions.)

If there were a photo-story or two, you could both enact the arrangements and such.
Or if he were coming through you land
and lets say there was something he might have offended you with in his zeal... ::)
You could ban him from your lands,
But to make it fair, lets only ban people if it is something really bad. ;)
Otherwise he will have to find another way around.

Or, you could take ships to Grangel's territory Giorginetto.
There is just so much that can be done! ;D
And for these reasons, I made the map. :)9

(I realize now Giorginetto has already said something about the same as here.) :)

...

Tim, that is excellent! :wow:
If you can do that for all the territories, I will be blown away! :o

...

Martin, I will gladly give you land in H-6,
no need to take away any land from I-6 or 7. :wave:

Hey! Where's my land? I asked for E5 at last, two or three pages ago. Can I have it. It's a nice piece of land with mountains to the North-West and a different sea on the North and the South coasts. I'd like my people to be involved in ore-mining and alchemy. I would have some Dwarves in the mountains, some Elves too but they're very elusive, and some orcs causing constant trouble just outside a large wooden area. A Dragon has been known to dwell in the mountains, but maybe it's just a legend...

@WoT: got my PM??

About cannons, I agree they should be very rare. Or maybe no movable units, just heavy ones to protect ships and castles. Yet, I think catapults and balistas are easy to make, providing there's enough wood and time, so there should be a lot more than cannons.
I can't see why the Romans would not join when the Egyptians do. After all, the Egyptian Civilisation collapsed before the Roman, so what? They use the same kind of weapons after all.

Right,
I was planning on splitting E-5 and E-6,
And E-5 would boarder the sea.

So stretching your territory to there would be fairly difficult
to integrate the other two Kingdoms.
You could move your Kingdom... :hmm:
Or wait until sufficient territories have been claimed
and if that area is still open, you could invade it. ;)

Can we have the map somewhere permanent with easy access so we can all view it without searcing the pages to find it?

I second that!
Actually E5 is quite small. It's merely a beach! How do you want to split E5 and E6?

???

I was asking for C6 not E5 or E6

Arnaud already claimed E5 pages ago *wink*

So could my realms be extended by the tiniest bit in C6



Whoops, wrong coast! 8}
Ok, sure. You can have some land from C-6. :)

I second that!

Arnaud.

I would stretch E-5 down to cover the mountain pass,
along with a few other regions in E-6. And E-6 would fill up all the rest of the space between the remaining Kingdoms.

Do you want E-5, I seem to have missed that.
I will fill you in there, just in case. :)

Hey! Where's my land? I asked for E5 at last, two or three pages ago. Can I have it. It's a nice piece of land with mountains to the North-West and a different sea on the North and the South coasts. I'd like my people to be involved in ore-mining and alchemy. I would have some Dwarves in the mountains, some Elves too but they're very elusive, and some orcs causing constant trouble just outside a large wooden area. A Dragon has been known to dwell in the mountains, but maybe it's just a legend...

@WoT: got my PM??

About cannons, I agree they should be very rare. Or maybe no movable units, just heavy ones to protect ships and castles. Yet, I think catapults and balistas are easy to make, providing there's enough wood and time, so there should be a lot more than cannons.
I can't see why the Romans would not join when the Egyptians do. After all, the Egyptian Civilisation collapsed before the Roman, so what? They use the same kind of weapons after all.

Arnaud

Sorry, Completely missed this page.
The map is now updated, I am sorry,
but so much going on in this thread makes me miss stuff. :-[

No I didn't get your PM, did you get mine? :eh?:

I guess if you don't have any (Or at least not very much) Medieval playmo,
you can use Romans and such instead.

As a reference, if the grid is 400 miles to a side that makes each square about the same size as the US State of California. In Europe it would be slightly bigger than Sweden and slightly smaller than Spain.

 ;D  I was thinking Spain too, as it's about as square as a country can be with natural borders.

That is of course a huge area fully capable of supporting as many cities as desired, mountains and rivers, the works.


btw, is this a flat map (i.e representing one "continent") or does it wrap east/west, or even north/south?

OK.
Would you prefer to be closer to the Sea(East), or closer to the Ocean(West)?
I will have to cut out a bit of the territory from one
in order to make it even sized with the rest of the Kingdoms.

I suggest you stick closer to the sea,
that way there is additional room for whoever wants C-4.
But of course, the choice is entirely yours. :)

The map is coming along GREAT, but we have to do something about colors - it's getting too hard to distinguish the small dots along the country's "owner"  :lens:.
Can't the owner's name (or shield or coat of arms) be inserted over his territory? It would make things a lot easier to see where is everybody on the map.

Here is version 1 of King Iseroth's Kingdom. At the centre is the Kings castle and city. To the south the forrests , in the left one are the merry men and the forrest ghosts and fairies ( good), to the forrest opposite is the stone temple of the green dragons and the towers of the yellow dragons and army plus witches and wizards ( evil)  . Nearby are lakes and mountains. Neat the castle are the farming lands and to the very end left the monastery. below the monastery is the kings outpost and port . To the north are more woods and mountains and to the island on the north are the vikings and to the small part isolated to the south are the alchemist and more magic. On the mountains are the dragons and drarfs ....

It's layered over the top of the image using the text tool in Photoshop Elements. Elements can be pretty cheap if you get an older version. I am using version 6 at home and only version 2 at work.  There is a freeware program called GIMP that is worth looking at if you are just starting with image software. It can do everything you would be wanting to do at this point.

I have thoughts of doing a version of the whole thing in an antique map look. I will let you know if I get anywhere with that.

Here is a first draft of a more detailed map for Pavelonia. It shows the different lands in the Pavelonian Alliance along with the major rivers and cities. This is sized down to a bout a third of the full size one. I can provide a full size base map for any of the countries in this same scale for anyone who is interested. It would be nice to be able to have a really large version with higher detail that can all fit together.

Vauban - for the map titles I just used Mittland. On Animobil in the Countries section I called it Mittland Realms. I sub-divided my own into 9 different places in an alliance together. I think if you wanted to divide your section into a group of smaller nations it would be fine, even if they were not all allied.

Thanks, Tim. I think it is so better how you made it. The (hi)story of Mittland is not still complet  ;).

@WOT: The time line round about Mittland (= my klickies) reaches from Maya over Romans and knights to soldiers and SciFi. The (hi)story has only to be told (and pictures to be taken  8-))

As for this discussion of whether or not we should change Kingdoms
because of how many Klickies they have,
I will not.
I didn't make this map to show how our real Kingdoms look,
if you want to do that, that is fine.

But I myself will not.
I only have a very small castle,
and an army big enough for perhaps one Motte and Bailey.
I also have almost no townsfolk. :P

I didn't create the map for this purpose,
and judging my the responses your request has received,
I don't think we need to put it to a vote.

How are we going to measure historical time? Our period is equivalent to 1200-1400 AD in 'real world' time.  Shall we continue to use the real world zero point for an AD BC split? That would probably make it easiest for reference. If that's the case what is our current year? I can work backwards for historical periods but there needs to be some reference point to start from.

How are we going to measure historical time? Our period is equivalent to 1200-1400 AD in 'real world' time.  Shall we continue to use the real world zero point for an AD BC split? That would probably make it easiest for reference. If that's the case what is our current year? I can work backwards for historical periods but there needs to be some reference point to start from.

How about the fall of the Great Empire is AF 0? (After Fall)
Before then is all TE (Time of the Empire).
The time period now for our world is, lets say:
1000 AF.

That gives time for the retraction of Empire forces,
full scale rebellions to begin finally finish off the Empire Forces,
and for the remaining territory to form into Kingdoms.
Also, it gives plenty of time for a few stories about Kingdom splits,
and better times after the Empire, but the fall-out of culture, etc.

That may not be smart Giorginetto,
as you can see, the boarders of the Empire are all naturally guarded,
and even though the Empire has fallen,
it is still a force to be reckoned with.

They may not be able to invade other countries (as of now)
but they can certainly defend their country better then most,
if not any of the Kingdoms left on the map. :hmm:

I am not sure, but in case you are not joking,
Justondo's Kingdom is the lighter gray one west of Belathre. :wave:
The darker gray "Kingdom" is the fallen Empire from before. :)

I'm wondering if there is room for the small kingdom of Ethero Valley, where my knight Sir Cecil hails from.  Ethero Valley is very small and heavily wooded.  In my mind it is in a remote location far away from other kingdoms and empires.  However, I'm cool with wherever it fits.  Thanks WOT in advance! :wave:

Even if he has, I think I would still like to keep it on the map...
It just makes it feel more filled.
Since so much of it still isn't. :-\

And even if we were to destroy his territory,
I would only make it empty space for another person,
without any land already to inhabit. :hmm:

Then again, if we did dissolve his kingdom we could all try grabbing land from it. :P
But I would still like to keep it,
who knows, Grangel might want to come back one day. :) (If he has truly left.)

I will update the map to Animobil this evening.
There are a number of kingdoms that haven't posted a name yet. I am assuming these are places that are known of but that do not have diplomatic relations with Rutileo or Pavelonia (where the main map making scribes reside).
If you have a name for your Kingdom please let us know. Once I have a name I can start a Kingdom page at Animobil. Some so far are just the bare basics, but some have a lot of information now. Rutileo and Pavelonia both have extensive historical sections, and there are some beautiful local maps for a number of the kingdoms. The current Argenland map is just gorgeous.

After that you must wait for a while before you can conquer more land.

WOT thank you very much for adding the small islands. There is a lake to the right hand side looks like an eye and below it are mountains , could i ask when you have a moment to close that lake better to the right from the sea with a bit of land and also put a small island on the middle of this lake if not too much to ask ? Also please when you have some time include the area inside the dotted line in Krull and cover all this area with mountains !!!! I am working on a plan to reflect that Map into my medieval set up and thanks in advance for your help !!!!!

I think once  we have all territories set , we should eventually replace the area colors with terrain colors and give more details of cities , mines , cow fields , ports , forests etc , I am working on a map as we speak that will be reflected exactly on the set up I am creating !!!!

Finally Sir WoT if you see one of my previous threads i have some small viking ships in th emap  posted here ages ago, do you think is possible to copy/paste that ship ( actually more like 3 of them ) by the viking island on the north east ??? :wave: :wave: :wave: :wave: :wave: :wave: :wave: :wave: :wave: :wave: :wave: :wave:

Cool name !!! Krull hope to conduct trade with Alexandria . Krull enjoys the rich lands and seas of the isolated north. FAmous for its viking fishermen and quality of deep sea fish , also for its animal stock, ( Cows , milk and cheese, sheep, goats, and pigs ) and ( see my post of my mediaval set up and the market pictures ) its ham and sausages. Also , the plains to the south and west offer high yield wheat and vegetables and apples. Krull has a lot of base and precious metals to trade and to trade with and last but no means least the famous KRULL ALE  , a strong ale that is prohibited in many KIngdoms of the Land ....

Krull is still waiting to take over the unclaimed lands to the north  the section that goes in width along the mountains of the Empire at its north borders......

I noticed my kingdom hasn't been labeled yet.  I thought it was in an older map.  Anyway its Ethero Valley and it is just north of Argenland.

OK, map updated with the names to now. Still need a few - Cowabounga, Coyote, Rasputin, Scan

There's still room for around 15 more countries before we have to start taking territory away from Krull  ;)

Krull will abide with the claimed lands form the beginning at the north of the empire mountains at the north west of its borders... After All Krull has entered a time for peace and trade and these lands will add to the trade of the nations ....

... as Krull's armies advance in the north, King Iseroth despatches messengers in Royal Krull Armour with messages to Avalon and Mittland , explaining  that these lands will be conquered so that they shall be used for farming and animals , already plans are in motion for people from the overcrowded city of krull to move there and raise crop, cut timber and raise animals. Krull will not station any armies near the borders with Mittland and Avalon , offers trading for Avalon and Mittland and there will only be small observation outposts near the borders with no armies nearby  . Also King Iseroth asks they Kings of Avalon and Mittland if they have for  some of the famous Krull Ale ( very good for diplomacy these days for Krull) and of course along with all this sents also a signed declaration that no Krull armies will be near the borders with Mitland and Avalon and trade offers ..... :wave: :wave: :wave: :wave:

The Kingdom of Krull and the Kingdom of Melnibone have joined forces and are invading the entire northern unclaimed lands , 60% f these lands will go to Krull and 40% to Melnibone !!! ( Krull's conquered lands to the west and Melnibone's to the East !!!!!

Krull's invading army are  the vikings and Wolf Men from the north but also a strong unit of Black Lions from the South , creating a long stretch of army coming from the south to the north , in  a closing door movement   ( similar strategy to Chamberlain's  victorious battle of Little Round Top at Gettysburg ) !!!!!!

(out of character : WOT as Melnibone and Krul's army are fast advancing their conquest  nad have agreed to a 60/40split , the line linking the southeast point of Avalon and the northeast point of Mitland should be joined together by a line and the lands to the left go to Krull and the lands to the right to Elric, that is a god 60/40 split .... ;)


Krull's vikings armies are fast advancing to the south conquering every small village on its way and putting up banners and garrisons along the way manned by black lion army that follow at a slower pace. The advancement of Krull's armies is proceeding as planned and word is that Melnibone's fearless armies are also advancing fast to the south .......

It will be nice to have your kingdom next to mine! Also it will be nice to alter your coat of arms.You can use the Dragon with black background or combination of black or purple background.It will be not confusing for the rest.
Love to have you here My precious friend and ally.

Map shoudl be updated as Melnibon'es and Krull armies are fast advancing to the south of these unclaimed lands !!!! Soon their mission will be over and all of Krull's settlers will be allocated , allowing breating space for the population of krull and much needed resources. Soon all of krull's forces wil return home and the country will go back in peace and prepare for hte jousting tournament .......

Thank you WOT! I will take grangels advice and use the Dragon logo with a black background so it will not be confusing as we share the dragon theme armies for our kingdoms. I suppose the light purple area in the south is Avelina. Will you be able to label it as such soon?  ;D

Grangel, we need to organize land and sea trade routes so our economies can prosper. I hope to send envoys to Flowerland and Ceragem to negotiate land trade route passage through either of their empires. They will be given a small tax each time, and whomever gives us the lowest fee I believe we should take.

With the possibility of war looming, our economies must be strong ally.

WoT  first its nice to see other players/kingdoms coming in , the new yellow dragon based kingdom is an interesting change and defines to an extend what the southern east territories will be like. MAy i also suggest that more of these unclaimed lands is added to Krull and Melnibone as their armies advance at double pace to the south, as there is hardly any opposition.....

You rush to conclusions Sir King of another of Yellow Dragons's Kingdoms . Beware as your words may be seen as a thread and already world peace is hanging by a thread . King Iseroth warns the southern kingdoms of yellow dragons to keep to their business. Clearly the recent defeat of Ithaca by the Empire hasnt tought them any lessons.. Beware ....

Sir, I wasn't aware our allies the kingdom of Ithaca has been so much as threatened by the Empire. Surely we would have heard it. Our Dragon kingdoms have been keeping to ourselves for quite some time, unlike some we know! Speaking of world peace hanging by a thread, why do you suppose that would be? Clearly the King of Krull holds others to a different standard than himself! A southern dragon alliance IS keeping to our business. We must do what is in our best interest to defend against attacking barbarian hordes.
