Got spare money?

yeah Sloww

As for the location requests, I'll try to accomodate them as much as possible, but will most likely be making a general map with few countries actually filled in. Remaining countries will be numbered and people will be able to choose based on a first come, first serve basis

I was thinking more of the "I need a river the size of the Ganges, a mountain range that touches the sky, and a large coastal plain that supplies grain to half the known world!" requests.

Seriously, your idea is fine with me, ColdWizard.

Enter the AD-FREE zone

uberlandia is mediumsized, roughly a square, with a little coast to the south.

capitolocracy, ruled by my alter-ego is long and thin above uberlandia. both ends of this densely populated country are adjacent to the ocean.

Tired of ads?

(WB me!)

Ceroo has always been described as "a long chain of islands with a small colony on the mainland" and always been RP'd as being off the south-west coast- not too far from Alecrast & Centralis (our navy helped enforce an embargo on the Centralis rebels recently).

But since the entire map is being redone I woudn't really care where I was (coastal) :-p

We can always re-adjust.

Ahhh, it's *that* kind of banned. Better not then. Do we have an NS mod? If not, I think I might put myself up for this. Do people think this is a good idea? I think we need some modding here at times.

Lose 30 kilos (of popups)

Sloww, you're such a meathead (to borrow a phrase)

I've started work on the main continent of the Archipelago. I plan a secondary continent/large island for use for future growth (if any) and in case I don't leave enough space on the main continent. Between the two will be islands and island chains. I also plan for Akiria to be north and to west of the main island, with Eternal Cold north of Akiria. Also, I have placed the Kingdom of Wine as it's uniquely shaped.

Given current events, I will next attempt to properly position Alecrast, Sheepsta, and Centralis. Everyone else will be able to pick their locations on a first come, first serve basis after I post the map.

At this early stage, things are looking good, though I think I need a couple more peninsulas

Hope it's not too late:

Map progress continues, about 30 nations on the main continent and 8 on the large island to the southwest. 27 islands/island groups so far (including Eternal Cold and Akiria).

There's room on the for additional countries on the main continent, as that's where I assumed the regional border with CFC would be. If need be I can push CFC back and insert countries there instead.

I will next be attempting to add more island groups and hopefully they won't look like blobs dropped down randomly.
