Thread: Thinking Big - Torq's landgrab - choose a territory

I don't have any issues with it, especially if it might encourage others to work more on the project as well. I agree with Torq though, in that it is imperative that the information be included in the wiki.

I know that you have a keen eye for detail. And as, anything you create that may have an impact on the world as a whole, or on any other area that you are not singularly responsible for should probably be addressed here first as well. I'm sure whatever it is won't be be an issue given your reputation, but still...

And on that note, I can't wait to see what you create!

My intent was using the Wiki to develope this piece of real estate. Although I have posted to the Wiki already, I don't know how to initiate a main page for my proposed content, since it won't be normally linked from the Ansium pages, rather through a higher layer for the entire world - I imagine. Also my Wiki-fu skills prevent me from uploading a map (I've yet to create one yet for this.)

I already know the government structure, who/what my emperor is, who/what my shogun is, I've got ideas for dozens of noble houses, I am borrowing certain aspects from both Shinto and Buddhism, mostly stuff on the dark side, as well as my own twisted twists for the religion and worship on the isles. So I've got stuff I can start entering into Wiki already.

If someone can start me up with an Empire of Asahi starting page - I can go from there!

Also, how should I name it, numerically speaking. I imagine region 2 - 5 (or more) will be on the continent Ansium is assigned. What is your suggested regional numbering for this property. I can see there are at least 6 to 8 square regions within the island property, though much of it is open sea, in order to access the few outer isles surrounding the main one.

You must master the Ways of the Wiki, young GamerPrinter! Only then can you become a true master of the CWBP!

...sorry couldn't resist

Here ya go.

I also updated the World Overview section to include your area; if you follow the format that's on that page already you'll be fine with adding additional areas within the Empire of Asahi.

Cool name, btw.

As for naming conventions here, I would think that something like "Empire of Asahi - Region 1" would be sufficient, especially since you'll be the only one working on it. But that's just me.

Good luck.

I love the descriptions you've done for the Beastlands! More! More!

Thank you IG! you're an unsung hero of the CWBP!

So who (NK?) would have a more detailed, larger or higher res version of the island east of Ansium I chose for my Empire of Asahi. I would like to start mapping it, but I would prefer something better to work with than what is currently available - anyone?

Heres a 4K x 2K world map that I made based on the original height map data.

Whoops, sorry I missed the party here. (Too busy with my CCNA course and all )

What sort of Info are you looking for? I can probably whip it off later today.

I think I can work with Redrobes heightmap, however, NK, if you'd like to provide me with climate/rainfall maps of the Island os Asahi region, that could probably help.

I plan to hand draw the main map with iso-hand-drawn mountains, it will show provincial borders, locations of the Imperial capital is well as major cities and other data. I also plan to create clearer (top down view) maps of the provinces and cities (eventually) so they can be more useable in a playing environment.

The one thought that frightens me, is that Fukuhara-kyo, the Imperial capital, may have more than 1 million people in its population (egads, I don't look forward to that map!)
