Conlang on a Map

[Bruno Müller]

Well, I'm a cartographer-conlanger and I love putting special scripts on maps, but I agree wih Kellerica here. If you want people to understand your map, using your conlang isn't going to work.

For example, right now I'm working on a map that is going to be displayed on a boardgame shop, and it will have a fictional script that is intended to be deciphered by the passersby, so it's okay.

Thanks guys.

The map I was thinking about was a map with very little writing. Just four countries really and no legend. It’s just for aesthetics and not use (roads or contours and stuff).

I started making maps because I wanted to make them the style that the governments in my WIP would. How they would portray other nations. So with all the crests and stuff, the conlang script would really in the spirit of things. And maybe leave English for the more detailed and useful maps.
