The period takes its name from the three suits of cards used in medieval Vandalia, being the swords...
  2. MotF 182: Deuxième Belle Époque

    With the failed assassination of Franz Ferdinand in 1914, Austrian militarism seemed to rev into a higher gear. Holding Serbia responsible for the attempt, if nothing else, and already looking for an excuse, Austria-Hungary attempted to send an ultimatum to Serbia, but in a surprising turn of...
  3. Map of the Fortnight: Main Discussion Thread

    I have one done, my first one in absolutely ages... it's just i'm unsure whether to post it due to a combination of rust, style i've never done before, and the usual "oh gods what if it sucks comparatively" mentality.
  4. Map of the Fortnight: Main thread

    I'm curious as to what Hero of the Day, Vampire of the Night actually entails. Like, what's meant by "unpleasant side-effect"?
  5. Map of the Fortnight: Main thread

    I think my vote still goes to Guns of the X: A scenario where time travellers help a faction win a war or become way too powerful in general.

    From my dA upload as per the usual nowadays.
  7. Map of the Fortnight: Main thread

    Despite never winning a single MOTF contest, at least they help me improve my mapping skills :D Guns of the X seems interesting but ASB as all hell. For a serious challenge, I'm sticking to Driving the Autobahn.
  8. MotF 127: This Too Shall Pass

  11. MotF 125: HOLY ROMAN EMPIRE, BATMAN!

    Following the defeat of the Ottomans at Belgrade, Serbia became a major power in the Balkans. However, this could not last forever - in 1680, groups of cities in Greece and Montenegro banded together to form the Balkan League. This league prospered, and stood in direct competition with the...
  12. Map of the Fortnight: Main thread

    so on the matter of ridiculousness, my current idea is slowly shaping up more and more to be inspired by Gloryhammer's recent album (spacefaring medieval civilization in Fife). Since the in-album explanation is that this whole mess comes from a zombie unicorn invasion (yeah idk either), is it...
  13. The Eagle and The Lioness - a Victorian Timeline

    In theory, I'm writing from hindsight, as if I were writing a high school textbook. This means that some future plans are already mentioned. In practice, I should never ever become a textbook writer. :p The American Union is a state established in the former USA after the increasing dominance...
  14. The Eagle and The Lioness - a Victorian Timeline

    1840-1848 - Europe on the Eve of Revolutions: Part 3- The Crisis in the North The Northern Crisis was one of the most defining events in the early 19th century.
