Does the Chaos Throne count? I'd be interested in hearing that.

Let's just make something clear. (Joint declaration by me and Disenfrancised)
if you want to collonize the new world, you will have to cross the ocean. a 3-4 month journy at best. where as travling Via avalon, its just 4 two week trips, and 1 three week trip. (or via treeship, half that.)
NOBODY IS GOING TO "COLONIZE" VENDALIA.
Anybody who does will
shishkabobbinated by tank-slaying spearmen and
steam powered weasels of doom!
Seriously, stay off our continent. We have warp portals, would you like it if we came and colonized bits of Europe or Africa?
Lord_Iggy just hasn't gotten around to coloring the map properly, so stay out.

Would either of you be interested in starting a trade route?
Expansion Plan
Apprentice mages are to practice their skills in a new way which will be beneficial to the nation as a whole. As a test of their skills, trainees are to manufacture Claimant Poles. These consist of a wooden staff roughly the height of a man, decorated at the top with the Elgovian seal, and with the Elgovian flag hanging on either side. The staff itself is decorated with
hermeneutic runes (would you believe that "hermeneutic" is a word already?

) runes of Bane and Ward. These combine to create a localized magical effect once the staff is planted firmly in the ground. The first effect is a shielded area twenty feet in radius; it repels anyone who does not first intone
"I am a citizien of Elgovia". The second effect is a small trickle of Trafe; touching the staff after it has been planted is liable to seriously damage one's hand unless one is a practised mage.
It is the intent that these Claimant Poles will be mass-produced and given to settlers and explorers so that Elgovian expansion can proceed apace. Care will be taken not to expand into lands claimed by our ally Hyperborea.
@Lord_Iggy: Here's my prospective road network that I plan to spend 2 economy points on.
