Yes I agree with Gis! A little D&D settings would be great!  ;D

WoT your Kingdom is uncertain, you cannot defend those territories!! Too Far away!! May you claim of part of Denmark along with Norway or Sweden!
El Jefe has Arabian roots so you may split Spain in horizontal base and also give him a part under Gibraltar.

Brilliant idea to give the Sardinia and Corsica to BKR !!


It may be harder to take my lands then you think...
But if no one wants Denmark, I will take a small portion of it,
maybe just part of the North West. :)

The map looks much much better now. Your work is great, I am excited.  :wave:

Glad you like it. :)

WoT It's great...but I would like to have my original "smaller" land back.

I think for now it looks better if it is aligned with yours on top and Giorginetto's below.

Also I am using my lands for a Dungeons and Dragons setting meaning my lands have Magic and what not...at least thats how I see it.

Ok, I will make your Kingdom back down to size a bit...
I just figured that since everyone else was expanding theirs, it was only fair to expand yours as well. :)


This could be a great reason for some tension between countries. Their stand point on magic.

Also I would like to have several races (Dwarves/Gnomes/Elves) I don't know how you all feel about that.

I love magic, and if we want to add a little to this world, be my guest. ;)
I have some magical things in my Kingdom as well.


Thirdly...I would like to claim the steel/weapon industry. Or at least put it forward as the main Source of trade for my area.

You of course can have whatever trade you want in your Kingdom.
Rutileo dabbles in a bit of everything, as it is a fantastic place for ships crossing the North Sea to rest at.

As you may know, ships had to travel along the coast in these days, so as not to get lost,
and if anything went wrong it could easily be fixed by heading towards shore right away.
Thus, when crossing larger bodies of water, such as the North Sea,
ships would look for "jumping" places, to rest and stock up on supplies.
Since Rutileo is right in the middle of the North Sea
between Scotland, parts of England and Sweeden, Norway, and Denmark,
along with farther places like Russia, Poland, and perhaps parts of Germany
It makes a natural jump point, and thus has become very rich merchant wise.


Also please make my area one colour, because my bit is a bit confusing...maybe if we can host it somewhere we can make it a clickable map with more detailed close up maps *grin*

I will... unless you want to map out for me, all of the individual Kingdoms in your land,
and I can put them on the map, and tie them together to look like one kingdom,
While still showing their individuality. :)


Also where is Tiermann (Salish) and Martin...it would be nice to have them participate...Also Tonguello?

Keep up the great work!

Thanks!

Ok, I have an idea if everyone is ok with it...
Gis has brought up the point, that he wants other races in his land.
I though that maybe there could be Kingdoms on the map
that show the land of Elves, Dwarfs, and other magical creatures.

If everyone likes the idea I would be ok with mapping out a few places
I think these creatures would live in.

I like the idea of giving them large chunks of the Northern realms...
Like Norway and Sweden, maybe parts of Denmark and Russia.
The North could be the sort of "unexplained land" full of magic, and the old ways. :D

So what does everyone think? ;D
I love it! Thanks for bringing up these ideas Gis and Wolf Knight!

Here is my idea...

People have until the 15th of Feb to claim lands inside the "black line" (the black line is just an example...WoT, please draw it any way you like)



All unclaimed lands will populated by WoT with all manners of stuff, forests, mountain ranges, rivers, races and so on. We will then "start"!!

All claimed lands are to be defined by the person that claimed it. If you have irragularities with your neighbour (about landscpape elements and what not) solve them in a friendly manner or ask for help in solving them :-)

All people that would like to participate at a later point will have room outside of the "black line" in which there are still un defined lands for them to do with as they please :-)

I will gladly offer help in defining the unclaimed lands if you need it WoT (and if you think it a good idea)

WoT. I'm going to send you a copy of the round markers I designed for the WJT. So you can put their coat of arms on each land the players own. Wouldn't it be Nice?

something like this?



The resolution on the map is pretty low, so it's not ideal!

Please do send them to WoT! He might need some more because a couple have no defined there Coat of Arms yet!

OK I will take greater Bohemia. That would be roughly the triangle between Juntindo and Sharonna
This would be about like the orange section to the right in this map of the Holy Roman Empire http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/c/cd/Map_of_the_Holy_Roman_Empire_in_the_10th_century.png/503px-Map_of_the_Holy_Roman_Empire_in_the_10th_century.png
