Thread: The Ten Colonies of Yggdrasil

    Map The Ten Colonies of Yggdrasil

    Hi folks!
    Here's my last science-fiction map, and just for the pleasure of mapping for once (I may use it for a game though...).
    I'm a big fan of Battlestar Galactica and chose to try to do a similar map than the "official" one of the series (I think). I replaced greek myths by the norses myths and I added the chinese five directions's symbols (a good original idea of Firefly).

    Usually not such a big fan of these scifi maps but it's a nice and clean work. Well done Ilanthar !

    Wow, Illanthar, this is awesome. Just looking at it i find it inspires a lot of ideas and the feeling of wanting to play in that universe. Well done! If i can, i'll rep you.
    And if you ever flesh this setting out for an rpg, please let me know. I'd be interested in your setting fluff!

    That's really nice Ilanthar! I was actually thinking that it looked like the BSG/Firefly maps (though I haven't found a full resolution version I can read yet =/). Btw, where did you get the shapes for the chinese five symbols? Did you make them?

    Thank you all!

    @Eilathen : I may do something of it... But not right now. And no problem, I'll let you know
    @Sharpes : I agree with you. My "verse" map is almost impossible to read, and the one of BSG is barely legible. For the chinese symbols, I wish I had made them completely, but I just reworked a bit some pictures found on the web.
