The emblem is a brown deer on green. The words are: As hard as stone, as flexible as steel.

Location: The Galleci lands are mostly like central france, in parts like southern france and well fitting for agriculture.

Spoiler :

political map: Brown are the major Vassals, light green the minor.

Spoiler :

Family:

Verrinorc Vilarix (37), Fillina (27)
Children: Llewella (13), Fiona (12), Merlin (11), Deidre (7)

Anari Danador of Noric
Asarat Pallasix of Medhlan
Norricar Scordisc of Darioritum
Sanaax Osismii of Moridun

History:
Vor very long Singidun has been a trading place on the routes going up north, but it didn't played any political role, until the very skilled Galleci blacksmiths in Singidun invented a very qualitative methodic of steelworking. Now the Galleci Steel is seen as one of the best Steel sorts on the continent. An Armament started quickly, and after several wars, the whole region came under the control of Singidun.A Galleci regular is armed like a ancient celt noble IRL.That means: A very good sword, a good spear with a long wide steel spearhead, a big pretty shield, a montefortino-type helmet and a mail armour.Horses are a very important part of the army, 30% of all forces are mounted.

Religion: The religion is Druidism. Horses, Deers and Boars are sacred animals.

Things have blown up since I was last here. Here are some things then.

1. On the subject of inheritance, that is the name of the game! Succession wars would be a realistic and cool part of this experience. I suggest we just stick with the usual primogeniture route, with the oldest male left inheriting everything, as well as his wife's lands as long as none of her brothers are left (uncles may fight for rule, as well as cousins!).

2. The mountain ranges are... disappointing to me. They disrupt my background as well as the feel I was trying to give my state. I therefore have created a more... "accurate" map that I hope you approve of, in order to better preserve the integrity of The Autumnland as I first envisioned.

The updated geographic map (will immediately be edited into original post):

Spoiler :

EDIT: Yeah I forgot to include the new Richter lands and the expanded Walen lands, but they are all plains just like everything north of the forest area.

3. Increasing our sizes, huh... I will do it as well I suppose. I hope this is not too much:

Spoiler :

My original post will soon be updated with information on the new vassal.

 

[germanicus12]

I assume the darker colors are your capital regions? If so I would like mine to move. I will be posting a regional map outlining my vassals and major transportation routes. As well as an expansion since I was hoping to have control of that lake for that was where I placed Wheat Flats.

Map still being worked on, but to clarify, everything north of that lake, I will include in my expansion. I should have the final map up in 5-6 hours.

 

[Deusselkerr]

Here is a basic plan for Rosehold and the Red Keep (AKA Red Castle):

@Deusselkerr, sorry about the mountains. I should have gotten it up earlier.

Furthermore, please post your expansions on a full map, instead a small cut of it. That goes for everyone from now on.

So do you want me to re-do all my maps? Do I get my re-adjusted mountains? Or am I good to go for now?

Just redo the one where you expanded your total land. Other than that, the mountains you posted aren't exactly realistic areas... Mountain ranges aren't that short. I guess I can do that, though.

Thanks! Here is the full "blank map" :

Also, on short mountain ranges--

etc etc

EDIT: Here is the map with some mountain ranges:

Spoiler :

They are definitely not the shortest mountain ranges, too. So are we good?

 

[Arrow Gamer]

Spoiler :

How's this for everyone?

 

[Arrow Gamer]

The family trees are done. Bonefang and Terrance need to actually make theirs.

Nailix, is Llewella a male or female?

Other than that, cutoff for finishing is Wednesday, Update 0 hopefully up Saturday or Sunday.

 

[Golden1Knight]

Spoiler :

Soon I'll post the rest

EDIT: I reserved that area around the tiny lake.

Spoiler Expanded Claims :

Uploaded with ImageShack.us

I would like a wife from someone either in the far west or south.

EDIT: I am willing to move the South hold to the southern riverbank just upstream of The Mouth. Will be working on Silverdale's history and the Argerico family right now, so please contact me via #nes. Also, the names Southhold/Valley etc are just placeholders.

 

[Arrow Gamer]

@Golden1Knight

Sorry about this, as it is mostly my fault, but your map doesn't contain Terrance's land, neither the original nor expanded.. Would you mind remaking it? You could just cut your part and add it to the other map. Furthermore, and this goes for everyone, but can you make another map if you're going to label it? Removing the names takes forever.

I am terribly sorry.

 

[Lord of Elves]

@Terrance, the noble House of Mayeux is willing to arrange a marriage between one of your offspring and the lovely Valenette, when the time is appropriate.

 

[Golden1Knight]

Okay, I just did the map to make it clear which region I occupy, I'm terrible with these things.

 

[Terrance888]

@Terrance, the noble House of Mayeux is willing to arrange a marriage between one of your offspring and the lovely Valenette, when the time is appropriate.

I accept your offer.

 

[Arrow Gamer]

Ah, no, the map itself was fine. It's just on the wrong iteration (my fault for not updating the front page correctly).

 

[thomas.berubeg]

Does anyone wish to provide a family from which my good wife Lea would have come?

 

[Eltain]

Golden1Knight's claims interfere with Terrance's south-hold. Not to a large degree.

 

[germanicus12]

My expansions if approved. I originally wanted to go south and not north but alas it was claimed before I could expand there. Also Arrowgamer if you could move my dark grey region to my new location as shown on my map that would be great.

Local map to come soon.
