Here it is. Feel free to hurl your abuse here. SurlyDo you think we could get a map update when recruitment ends?

Map updated. Tell me if you want me to change your nation's size, borders, location, color, etc.; change the placeholder names I put on the various mountain ranges; add in rivers, lakes, etc.; make the layout more like it was on the original map; or anything else that would make it work better, pending Odin's approval of course.

I like my nation. Small but still lethal! Cool name for an OOC thread, Odin.

Thanks. I like to keep my vulgarities as obscure as possible.

I posted some NPC interaction with players in the IC thread. I probably should have included it at the beginign but I wanted to give people a chance to introduce their own factions before the game kicked off in earnest.
Anyways have at it. And remember if you have questions my pm box is always open.

Shouldn't there be a bunch of semi-independent (by Dominions standards) city-states, republics, provinces, and etc in between our various areas of influence? You could probably have a few nations that declared full independence when the Pankrator left, you know. At best, you could probably just randomly generate a Dominions 3 map and use it for this. ;D Anyways, FYI, Cerrak dislikes pompous factions; pompousness is his by right!

Indeed there should be. We could either declare them mostly Imperial Cult or Imperial Army controlled areas, or just independent speedbumps minor nations that are worth dealing with. It might be annoying to stat them out, but might be worth it; perhaps we could just have a generic "minor nation" stat set and place a given number of minor nations in each area. Up to Odin, of course.

I'm working on obtaining a copy of Campaign Cartographer, but at the moment it eludes me. If/when I get a hold of a copy I'll do a map with petty states added in.
I was hopping to use dice rolling on the forum to randomize smaller provinces and Pretenders. But that doesn't seem to work either.
For simplicities sake assume that any land not in something else's border has a straight stat line of 2, and takes up an area about the size of Hoburg.
Umberto is primarily limited to the Imperial sphere. The Imperial cult's military is in the sphere as well but has significant pull with local priests outside the sphere.
Game turns are going to run every week if that doesn't seem like enough time or I need more time to finish up an EoT, then I'll extend it. The next turn beginning on next Sunday.

No problem.
Doesn't the Giant frown on people using the forum for dice rolling for other games?

Would Invisible Castle work?

I keep looking for invisible castle but I cant seem to find it. Does the roller on Invisible Castle let you view previous rolls? I could just use real dice but I wanted players to know where exactly I was getting my numbers from.
