Postby Drachen-Reich » Thu Mar 26, 2015 10:41 am

Hello, I am actually fairly new(I apologize if this is the wrong forum), and I was wondering how I would make my own Region, or whatever it's called, since I'm a very independent person, I just have no clue how to do it, and I never saw a tutorial anywhere, so knowing this would be very nice, any help offered is highly appreciated.

Not a mod, but some friendly advice: you're definitely going to need to change your flag. Swastikas are banned on this site.

Clearly you're new.. Swastika's are strictly banned from flags, so I'd suggest changing that pretty quickly before you get a warning slapped on your acount.

The only way I know of making a region is to go to the region you're currently in and click on the "Tired of life in Nazi Europa?" It will take you to a page where you can choose a new region, but it also gives you the option to create your own region.

Yeah. I got two warnings this week just for having a long forum signature.

So much for freedom... okay, so I managed to actually make a region but.. what exactly do I need to make it look professional and stuff?

Any help is honestly highly appreciated.

Well first, try out some of the coding, see how you can use it in your World Factbook Entry. Since the region you created seems to be mainly about your nation, make a dispatch about your recent history, and how the fourth reich came to be. You could also make a thread for your region in 'Gameplay' to try to attract new members if that's your goal. What is your region centered around? Roleplaying? Gameplay? If its centered around gameplay, is it a raider, a defender, or both?

Would I be frowned upon if I said I've never done anything like this?.. I may need a bit of a walkthrough--

No; however, I've never had my own region (aside from 'Cyllean Commonwealth' which is purely puppet storage') so you might be better off talking to someone who's more knowledgable in region building; I'd check out the Gameplay forum

That first link is definitely helpful, so thank you for that.

Gameplay form?... honestly, this seems sort of like roleplaying, but as a country, which I.. do not entirely understand how that works.

Gameplay is OOC (out-of-character) only, so I would suggest moving this there. I can put in a request for you to move this to Gameplay, if you'd like.

This thread was already moved from Got Issues -> Technical, which is the correct place for a technical "How Do I...?" question. The follow-up question on developing a region is covered in this guide; further questions should be asked in the Gameplay forum - the best place for that would be this questions/advice thread.

Thank you very much, I am hoping that those links will be helpful for me! Again - thank you, and if I have any questions or concerns, I am sure I can simply ask you or post in that forum, yes?

Alright, thank you, but those two links seem to not exactly be related to what I need, but where could I go to ask about how to do anything with my nation and stuff, like... make it look presentable?
