Gaea, A Fantasy Role Play (OOC/Master Thread) Always Open

[Elerian]

The Egyptian themed civ would be most suited to the area north of the Paletine Republic which I am invading right now.

What's the area north of that?

And I think Palatine and The White Company are gonna get along just fine. *sarcasm*

Just realized a slight map claim issue between my group and that of Krugmar dealing with the Kalzmere mountains, so I am going to go ahead and start editing my posts to attempt to fix that.

I saw that earlier but I don't think it is a problem, though it is claimed by Durognarin in reality there will only be a few thousand dwarves there split into small outposts isolated from contacting the capital. It would make sense for those mountains to hold secret vaults and other groups.

Alright, well if it isn't a problem I will leave it as be. I have a citadel on the river that intersects your mountains, so technically it would be in your claim but it isn't in the mountains. And my last posts have been using a tunnel going into a mountain, but that should be it for the intrusions into your territory

You need to tell us where on the map your empire is in the geographic territory line.

You need to tell us where on the map your empire is in the geographic territory line.

I thought you did that. It's hard for me to tell because of the resolution of the map

[Alderann]

Starting at the city of Tyra and encompassing the whole length of the river haszarpal down to the the southern waste

[The Vekta-Helghast Empire]

Taggity, me likey.

[Alderann]

But I suggest placing me where I would most be suited. I'm am Egyptian themed so wherever you think that would be

[Krugmar]

But I suggest placing me where I would most be suited. I'm am Egyptian themed so wherever you think that would be

These are just two places on a quick glance that I reckon suit your nation

Both have rivers, the Golan desert is more suited to your Egyptian theme but the steppes could kind of work.

I need to have a bit more history. Write about the recent emperor, famous events, alliances, interesting facts, etc.

I think I will go with the Golan desert

I have a lot more I want to add, but I wanted to get an app up

[Elerian]

If Imperial doesn't have his response up for me tomorrow then I'll post for you, Damak.

[Imperialisium]

Sorry, been trying to insert the map file into Campaign Cartographer 3 so I can pretty it up and make it look like an actual map. Its been giving me issues though, like the image disappearing every time I hit the zoom function or what not.

I will have the character apps for the emperor and Prince this week. Can I use the term pharaoh for my leader?

Yes, just make sure to add as much as you can as soon as you can. I know this will be a busy couple weeks for people in school and college or for those who work and may have deadlines (or both), so I try to be as accommodating as possible in terms of timeframes.

Thank you for understanding and I can finish my nation tonight or tomorrow and my characters in a couple of days. Just curious where has it been decided that I will be on the map?

Ideally you would choose the parameters and use the landmarks to help us picture where you are on the map. Or you can download the map and simply trace a line on where you'd like your borders to be, and then put it on the thread for us to see and know.

[Alderann]

I think the Golan desert would be best but you can help decide. I want it to be Egyptian themed. So I guess I need some coast line also, what do you think?

[Imperialisium]

I'm also assuming you'd like to be around people

The Golan Desert could work, but naturally the northern section will be a cold desert and it has no coast line.

Could do Haszarpul River, if you want to contest with Vampires to your West and Nomadic Human (and warlike) Tribes around you. Tyra on lake Tymr would be a good addition.

Could do Balatos River Delta and based at the coastal city of Iskandrun and some other desert cities with the Great desert around you. Iskandrun would be Anotan in population (Anotans resemble Middle-Eastern/Turkish/North Africans so they'd ethically work out)

Those are the three easy options I see.
