  1. Map Thread XXII

    Crossposting my MOTF entry. It's been a while! As the 22nd century begins, The Republic of Colombia operates three of the world's five space elevators. They were built largely in the late 21st century, during a period of intense rivalry between Colombia and the rising power of India for...

  2. Map of the Fortnight 287: In the Heights

    As the 22nd century begins, The Republic of Colombia operates three of the world's five space elevators. They were built largely in the late 21st century, during a period of intense rivalry between Colombia and the rising power of India for global leadership. Colombia ultimately would lose this...

  3. Map Thread XX

    My Telephone Map Game submission. I got Guildencrantz's map (on the previous page of this thread). The use of an ancient ruler's name as a modern(ish) title reminded me of Caesar/Kaiser/Tsar, so I took that theme and ran with it!

  4. Map Thread XX

    It's from the Kanaga mask used in traditional Malian religion, here representing pre-Islamic West African faiths in general. Though the yaz is a good thought!

    Crossposting my MotF entry: "Gentlemen: in an age of new productive forms, of ever-spreading collectivities, of mobs and masses, they tell us the noble Nation of the eighteenth century is dying. Once France and Portugal made war among the olive groves of Sicily. Now Rome commands all three...

    "Gentlemen: in an age of new productive forms, of ever-spreading collectivities, of mobs and masses, they tell us the noble Nation of the eighteenth century is dying. Once France and Portugal made war among the olive groves of Sicily. Now Rome commands all three. No longer are there Turks and...

  8. Map Thread XX

    Most of the Ganges plain becomes uninhabitably hot for months out of the year. The Deccan Plateau is populated, but (like SE Asia) marginal. India was one of the major powers of the late 21st century. As summer heat waves became deadlier, they flouted a UN ban and started geoengineering to cool...

    My map from the 9th Telephone Map Game! In case I didn't make it obvious, the text accompanying the map has a certain amount of bias. The descendants of the Thai and Malay population might describe a military occupation followed by colonial settlement, and question whether the occupiers were...

  11. Telephone Map Game: 8th Edition

    This was fun! I'm impressed how close my map came to the original, based on a few clues and some convergent speculation.

  12. Map Thread XX

    Here's my piece of the 8th Telephone Map Game. I got a map showing a panoply of Mediterranean powers following the collapse of a Carthaginian empire, with (among many other intriguing details) some references to Bantu steel and gold as trade goods. By pulling on that thread I happened to...

    This is an idea I've toyed with too, so I look forward to seeing what you do with it! One thing to consider is at what technological stage the Old World discovers the New--and who discovers it. Does China run into at when they already have locomotives and telegraphs? Or what if their science is...

    Crossposting my entry for MotF 232: On a Pale Horse. There's no rule it has to be people plague, is there? The scenario is mostly laid out on the map: Imperial Japan gets its hands on some Microcyclus ulei, the blight that makes rubber cultivation (as opposed to searching for wild rubber)...

  15. MotF 232: On A Pale Horse

    There's no rule it has to be people plague, is there? The scenario is mostly laid out on the map: Imperial Japan gets its hands on some Microcyclus ulei, the blight that makes rubber cultivation (as opposed to searching for wild rubber) untenable in the Amazon, and uses it on British rubber...

  16. MotF 231: Bought With Blood And Steel - Voting Thread

    Interesting--I had the reverse reaction. I am (no surprise) more into my own scenario, but I'm super impressed by/envious of Prince's map aesthetically. I kind of want a poster of it for my wall.

    Cross-posting my entry for MotF 231: In the tower room, surrounded by murals and silk, Alexander rests his head in his hands. His thick, silver hair--he has not gone bald, at least--falls over his eyes, blocking Alexandria from sight. It is not much more than a blur, anyway, these days. The...

  18. MotF 231: Bought With Blood and Steel

    In the tower room, surrounded by murals and silk, Alexander rests his head in his hands. His thick, silver hair--he has not gone bald, at least--falls over his eyes, blocking Alexandria from sight. It is not much more than a blur, anyway, these days. The Alexandrine Code, in twenty-seven thick...

    Thank you, Tai-Pan! It was a lot of work, but I have a lot of time on my hands these days. I'm glad you entered yours, too. The more the merrier!
