    Map Thread XIII

    Well, go make that map (or at least tell us about your idea :p)! It'd be fun to compare, non? :) I cannot into literacy.

    How do you mean? And thank you! :) I swear I'm not a Goa'Uld. :(

    Map Thread XIII

    I might as well put this here, straight from the Oneshot Scenarios thread: Preface: I probably write way, way, way too much... Opinions on that, actually? :p The twentieth century has just entered its second decade; it's the year of 1914. The Great War, not yet. But soon, politicians in...

    Μηδίζω! The World of Achaemenid Hellas

    Is that really the ending of this whole thread / story?

    I accidentally made Eurasia. :p

    Μηδίζω! The World of Achaemenid Hellas

    Now this is an amazing thread. Really, one of the best alternate history scenarios, I would say.

    Which is why I occasionally intentionally use 'Kalmar Union'. I simply don't see the problem with it.

    Yeah, it's for 99% white I believe. I don't understand why anyone would think such a basemap is useful. For example, this is the one I'm using, made by myself, which has even more coloured countries: Compare them to the 2010 basemap and the 2012 one.

    What is the scale?

    That would depend on the map, of course.

    Map Thread XII

    I guess this is relevant. It contains all the maps I've made that are completed, and that still existed somewhere. I now really dislike Imageshack for removing quite a few maps that I don't have on this PC anymore, but that I have posted on this forum years ago. :p

    Thank you! I like to make unique maps, radically different from anything else I've seen. :p

    So, I finished my write-up. Be prepared for lots of text. :p This map is based around a tripolar war between racists ('we are the master race, everyone must obey us; a place for each and every race, nicely ranked, serving us'), purists ('all of humanity must be pure, racial differences must...

    French revolution spreads to the entire continent of Europe?

    Indeed. We got the concept of last names - which is why you still see people going around with last names such as 'naaktgeboren' ('born naked'), as people expected these last names to be removed once France was gone - the metric system, universal suffrage for men, all children had to go to...

    This is a cool story. You write well, Dirk, Casey, people... Go on! :)

    Abubakri II of Mali arrives in South America

    Wikipedia for easiness. So, this guy sent out two huge fleets to see if there's land west of the Atlantic Ocean. The first fleet numbered 400 ships, according to Wikipedia (200 for men, 200 for supplies, is how I interpret it), though most other sources say just 200. The second fleet, according...

    Agreed, which is why I put it in text underneath the map.

    I found that to be too annoying, and the map would have expanded to a way too large size.

    Map Thread XII

    Mhm, I see quite a few ASB-ish maps, so I shall post my own here too (usually I confine myself to the two threads in the ASB forum, but oh well). I made a map again, hooray! Except that I ran out of things to say about countries, as most is already covered in the description I wrote. As...

    WI the gunpowder revolution centred around rockets rather than firearms?

    You'd need gunpowder to be discovered - or, more specifically, 'weaponised gunpowder' - much earlier, so that metallurgy won't have advanced as much. Heh, look at Green Antarctica. :p
