    Well, uh. Maybe. Hell, probably! It's tricky - the lack of glaciations will undeniably mean that our polar regions would be very different, such as where water has filled ice cap caused depressions in Canada or Europe. Our knowledge of the topography of the involved regions before the ice ages...

    Working on a Jaredia climate map at the moment... Suggestions appreciated. I'm liable to mess up here, for example I've no idea where to put those monsoon forests...

    Wow, that cuts out a lot of work for the shiveria map and the detail is much clearer than what I was using previously. Much obliged, and thank you!

    Spot on, but then you have the immune 'carriers' to think about. Depending on exactly how they work (are they 1 in a million or 1 in a thousand? I think I remember 1% of the population being mentioned...) and how many refugees the nations of the americas will be willing to take in once the...

    Mostly by virtue of very large spans of ocean and empty desolation separating them and the old world. Even then it was largely by virtue of luck - there were many close calls where an outbreak of infection caused by a broken quarantine in a refugee camp or a carrier that escaped detection was...

    Alright, finished a (roughly done, but no point in making it perfect if I'm just going to use it as a base for the next round of edits) seapole map. Next comes the cleaning up, matching the coasts to those in the original seapole pics, adding in forgotten islands and movement of the icecaps and...

    Just a quick doodle; a map of the old world rage virus outbreak. With fatalities rising to over 98% within regions overrun by the infected, around 5 billion people died between 2002 and 2006.

    Probably going to try poaching the flooded Antarctica from my Cassini map as a basemap here, the coastline there probably matches the seapole one pretty closely. Right. Once I finish getting coastlines from the original map, I'll need to edit it by eye with help from the maps on the...

    More work done... Christ, West Siberia and the Amazon sure are something else.

    Alright, getting progress done. Just working off of the standard sea level rise map at the moment, so there'll probably be some inconsistency with the seapole maps on the original site. Glacial fuckery-of-the-coastlines will be less prevalent in seapole for obvious reasons, but all the same...

    At the moment? Make worlda maps for the rest of the various tilted earths (seapole right now, shiveria next and maybe turnovia?). I'm doing this to give more resources to people who're interested in tilt scenarios. Ideally I'm hoping this'll help out with getting some more groupthink done on...

    Thanks a bunch - always appreciate the input! A warning to anyone using GProjector. Remember to turn off the coastline outlines and such before saving the map, they can be helpful sometimes but if you don't need them there it's a pain in the ass to redo the projections. Case in point shown by...

    I figured it out! Basically, just edited the map so that the black dot was cut in half at the edge latitudes of the map, changed the settings for equirectangular oblique moved it to the pole - then saved that map and was able to make it a robinson. Which is _great_. Quick set of images to...

    I could, but the poles in that pic are a fair bit off of the coordinates seapole has them at - which SHOULD be around 21 S, 14 W. Just SW of St Helena; see here. EDIT: So it's basically a matter of getting this black dot up to the north pole...

    Jesus christ, impressive work there. Really does make you pause and think for a second. But still, but a few splashes of red there. Wow.

    Always have had a soft spot for paleogeography, look forward to what you do with prehistory! Also; no obligation to use it but I gave a go at finishing that off, hopefully helpful?

    2 years on and the armies of the world are on the march. Somewhere in a bomb shelter deep below Kōfu, an alien intermediary direly informs the Japanese minister of defence and her assembled colleagues that Humanity was now at substantial risk of a “low-productivity, low-utility” end-state. The...
