@TalisI'd be cool reducing my size to accommodate you.

Is that cool? @Willy Vereb

@Isotope

Why not be? It's something you must talk out between each other.
Anyways, I'll be away for a while but after that I should work on the map.

I feel that a Chatzy might be beneficial.
I have yet to make a single room in it but if somebody wishes to I don't stop them.
I would even put up the link in the OP.

Q: How obligated are we to use the cities/names listed on the map? They all kinda sound like "generic fantasy gibberish" rather than anything cohesive.

@Dead Cruiser

You can use them if you want or ignore them if you don't.

I would like to say to everyone that I am claiming this land for my WIP nation

My Hider

@Lauder

That's fine. What kind of color you wish to claim for your nation?

<Snipped quote by Willy Vereb>

Well, by "large chunk of land," I mean this area.

That's one vote for the Sunrise Islands, polling against the Hellmouth Islands. Still torn on the issue, personally.

@Dead Cruiser

Oh I meant the group of islands nearly forming a sphere at south-east.
Yeah, I think that much is fine.
Personally I am still thinking how to position my nation at the center to be an important trade transit while also not occupying that much land.
I would rather not become a hypocrite.

I plan on claiming a good chunk of the archipelago to the east. I'll bounce a couple of ideas off of you guys:

•Tribes of barabaric beastmen/werebeasts with an environmental kick. Captain Planet meets RULES OF NATURE. Shamanistic, a lot of fantasy monsters, more magical than most. Lots of FIRE and BLOOD in their motifs.

•Far-east styled bugpeople. Different islands are home to a different vaguely-racist ripoff castes of bugperson, that live in a sort of federation of mutual convenience. Expect "FLITHY MAMMAL GAIJIN, CHITIN SWORD FOLDED THOUSAND TIMES FAR SUPERIOR."

@Dead Cruiser

We have nearly 30 potential players. I'd rather not have one player getting a large chunk of land at the expense of others.
Besides wouldn't it be more fun if 5-6 player are competing on those islands?
At best we can say that players wishing to play as bug people are far more welcome to claim territory there.

Can i claim a chunk of that black island in the northwest corner? On phone right now, but wanted that little bit for DA ORKS.

Edit: worked out a rough nation idea. Anyone have objections against an alliance of traditional "monster" races such as orks, kobolds, goblins, etc.

@Natsucooldude

If I go ahead with my nation Orcs would be the equivalent of Mongols here.
I even "made" their flag here:


Anyways, why would anyone object you to not using humans, dwarves, elves but orcs and other greenskins who are usually the villains?
You are free to use any race so long you don't go overboard.

A map claim:

It'll be a VERY odd nation compared to most, think zero civil development and a race alien to most.

@Isotope

Would you be a Beduin-like nomadic nation which might occasionally trade with neighbors but otherwise inhabit the no man's land?

Fabula Elysia - Medieval Fantasy Nationgame

People should use colors other than red.
Sure, red is likely the most visible on an almost completely green terrain but still.
At this rate we could get confused so easily.

Oh well, everyone. Since it appears I'll be bringing together the maps anyways just choose a color and I'll draw your borders with that.
Since we have no less than 23 potential players I suggest using the color pallette and posting me what you chose as a colored text.

Fabula Elysia - Medieval Fantasy Nationgame

My main idea is an orcish nomad empire similar to the Golden Horde of the Mongols.
They'd occupy the center of the main continent and would form a very important trade system through it. Think of this world's equivalent of the Silk Road.
Managed by orcs.
