come on mibi just post the whole thing this is getting silly. we're getting close to 10 pages of total spam here. i want to comment on the map but no actual comments can be done until you have the whole map posted.
we have 10 pages of people that keep saying to tease them (andy is a perv) and only 1 (one) post of real feedback. (wisse)
if you had posted the whole image from the begining we would have been on page 10 with loads of updates caused by feedback and the map would have been much more advanced.

i agree i did have some really good laughs in the first pages when i saw the crowd go mad :lol: and i totally think the whole idea of building momentum and teasing viewers is fine but come on let's get it on with the foundry process. :wink:

Secret entrance out?!

You mean a "secret exit"?!

C.


no, i mean secret entrance, not possible with current xml. basically, if you get to the secret entrance you have to play a game of mindsweeper and answer 3 trivia questions in 60 seconds. and wrong answers and the entrance is closed.


But surely an entrance is to go into something... this is an exit as you are leaving the city?

I guess you could argue it's a secret entrance to life outside the castle!!

That being the case, give us the goddamn map! As Dim says, it is all, whether how enjoyable or not, spam

Here the final to land continents. The northern of 4 territories being heavily forested with little more to do then worship. The southern hilly of territories is quite active. As well as manning a heavily traveled point, they also have a logging camp and maintain a barracks to train conscripts. A little farming too worship too.

well, I surely thought there would be a consensus by now. given that some of the features like the city and other stuff is a bit exaggerated for game play purposes, the basic geography is pretty recognizable.

ah well, I will keep plugging away.

hmm that little section that comes out of the corner looks a little like italy from about 1000 years ago maybe and isnt that wre troy was? it has to be troy and then the top must be *since it cant be land masses* all those ships that came from that place(cant remember who attacked troy) but i think mibi is going to add 100 ships and make them all territories wouldnt that be cool


am i right mibi?

Of course, what those farmers and worshippers on the northernmost peninsula don't realize is that their home will one day be immortalized by a battle, and then a Mel Gibson movie...

(unless I'm totally wrong about the geography)

Here are the final three continents. One fleet of ships making landfall on the beach camp, and another smaller fleet to the north. Also the sea is now a continent of seven territories.

One thing to note about the sea, is that it cannot be attacked from land, or the ships. It is also non-deployable, which is the only xml update this map needs. But other updated xml features may be implemented.

The seas can't be attacked from the land or the ships....but please tell me they can be attacked from somewhere. Otherwise I think its pretty obvious that if you don't start with a territory in the sea you cannot win the game.

I'd like to know a bit more about how the sea works. Seems like a strange system at the moment.

Yes, they can be attacked from somewhere .... somewhere in the top portion of the map...



...and only with intense worship of a particular deity....
