Forgive me Domen but I think you should have a more... country like claim. A line like that is... not a lovely sight on the map.

 

[W|M]

Domen has the best claim and has every right to claim that

 

[Ailedhoo]

A key law in IOT is for a map to look good and frankly a line claim thing is a eye-shore, plus it will hinder the border management of other players.

 

[Domen]

Don't worry it will soon expand in all directions/

 

[Domen]

But Human Federation of Tribal Societies also looks like a line.

 

[Ailedhoo]

If you want to expand I suggest you do a proper claim, instead of a "claim road." It is strategically, tactical, geopolitical, economically, politically, culturally, etch a problematic claim.

This is for the benefit of all players.

Ok but GM wrote in first post "no other rules". And BTW, Ailedhoo, your country also looks like a line:

Spoiler :

=====================================

Edit:

But if GM doesn't allow this then I will change to some other country.

Ok but GM wrote in first post "no other rules". And BTW:

Spoiler :

"Haha, Japan a line" is not a way to justify what the likes of what Sone would term a abomination that is...

...and for good reason. Where Japan is a isle connected to each of its provinces well, it is all too apparent that the case I am concerned with is indeed a coherent claimant.

However the purest reason is that your claimants make logistically defending and managing your lands... difficult to say the least.

Still: Terran will hopefully rule that nations should be mapped coherently.

It is not an eyesore at all, and border management is fine

 

[dragonprobably]

Ailed, my country is a line.

 

[W|M]

As is mine

oh goddamn another person claimsblocking me for the rest of the game

 

[Terran Empress]

Im sorry, but I do have to say those claims are

In all seriousness, that map pays no attention to geography, culture, or history, let alone it just wouldn't work.

I know this IOT is supposed to be more on the silly side, but im going to have to ask you to either change your boarders, or change your nation to be less serious.

'Culture, Geography, and History

In an IOT that has Shrek and Taylor Swift on it.

To be fair, really the only one that all the nations don't apply to is IRL history, and that was just there because of the three to be honest

Its really the fact that a country COULD NOT, and would not be able to look like that, because of geography.

 

[Double A]

Unless it was populated by giant alien robots.

 

[Domen]

COULD NOT, and would not be able to look like that, because of geography.

Why not, considering that my country just controls the Silk Road:

If the Silk Road could exist, then a Silk-Road-Like-Shaped Trade Empire too. Or not?

 

[Ailedhoo]

No.

The Silk Road was a trade route, not a empire or nation.

Look mate: the GM, who masters this game, has asked you to change your claims to be a nation instead of the mess that is currently being proclaimed by you. If you want to be welcomed I suggest you heed the GM's command.
