New Map

Much better than the previous ones. There was something just wrong with snow in the middle of the continent, and other geographical inconsistencies and chunks of lands which were easily identifiable to other continents. -Chénier 17:15, 9 May 2008 (CEST)

I agree, much better than the first, but i would like to see a little more variety in landscapes, like more mountains, maybe one or two mountainranges, a desert, some snow in the north or south, or badlands here and there. Baldur Mekorig 17:54, 9 May 2008 (CEST)
Thanks. I will try and improve it further. Problem with snow is the only chunk of land i have to play with is the Thalmarkin section. :P. About the desert and more mountains, thats possible :). Ceorl 18:17, 9 May 2008 (CEST)
I've got the Age of Wonders game and editor, I could make you a sample. -Chénier 21:17, 9 May 2008 (CEST)
Indeed, I just noticed now it's really mostly all green, no wastelands, no volcanoes, no deserts, no snow, lacks a bit for the flavour. But for the construction and the rest, still look pretty neat. -Chénier 21:43, 9 May 2008 (CEST)

A new continent?

Don't you think that the continents are underpopulated enough as it is? - Chénier 17:22, 4 December 2008 (CET)

*cough* User:Chénier/Submission Please dont be hypocritical. Thanks, Ceorl 17:31, 4 December 2008 (CET)
BattleMaster could double in players without being too overcrowded. We'd probably need over 2,000 active players to fill the islands we already have. Still, theorizing new islands and possible designs is always fun. We can dream, can't we? :) --Indirik 17:36, 4 December 2008 (CET)
I love all these continent ideas, but it is dreaming at this point. We need more players more than anything. Considering West Continent took about 3 years, with relatively enough people to start new continent and still resulted in 2 islands(one quite smaller than the other though) being deleted for it, I really don't think a new continent is on horizon any time soon. We really just need to gain new players. Or increase character slots. I'd love that. Increase characters and begin limiting one per island with exception to deportations. --Vita Family 17:49, 4 December 2008 (CET)
I like the "one-character-per-island" thing on Dwilight. You don't have to worry that Realm A and Realm B will never fight because they're run by the same people. And don't make exception for deportations. If someone is deported to an island where they already have a character, then when they show up they are immediately offered a choice to start on a new island where they don't have a character, or to delete. (Assuming that deportation can't be made smart enough to account for that beforehand.) Simply making all islands one-character-per-account would get people to spread out. You wouldn't have to force deport characters, just stop allowing people to start/emigrate a second on the same island. --Indirik 17:55, 4 December 2008 (CET)
Eh, I just did that map for the fun of it, I don't want it used. I'd rather see continents sink before the opening of a new continent, and Dwi's pretty much killed all the naive hopes I used to have in new continents. -Chénier 21:38, 4 December 2008 (CET)
