NES World/Regional Maps III

[Jason The King]

NK suggested that "Jason" is replaced with "CFC NESers" (or something like that).

I like that. Or even just CFC.

I am thinking of possibly, maybe, starting a new NES sometime within the next couple months. Here is a civ zones map I just finished. I am posting it here for comments that anyone may have.

 

[Lord_Iggy]

Why is the Pacific coast of South America a red zone? And would you be able to run this NES?

 

[MjM]

Psst, I like how you used my red river otline iness.

 

[Swiss Bezerker]

MjM, learn to talk
I love the map, but I request green zones in britain and java

If the bretton Celts get a civilized zone, so should Scandinavia, Finland and Karelia get ones aswell. That would make it too many zones i'd say.

 

[andis-1]

That would make it too many zones i'd say.

Aye, thats why only britain will be zoned.

 

[Israelite9191]

The Pacific coast of S. America is red zone because of the Chavin and Moche. As for if I will be able to run it, that's why I haven't decided yet and why I'm waiting for my schedle for the semester to furl out. This semester should be easier since I have an extra free period. I don't think I will add a Britain or Java zone unless you can give me good reason for the Java one. I am contemplating Irish, Hungarian, and Burmese zones.

@Reno- I actually had a green zone around Estonia in the last NES specifically to try and get you to join. If one in this NES would get you to join, I might be able to see my way around to it...

Java is easily the most advanced of the Indonesian islands, and actually had relatively impressive civilizations from at least the Common Era. This doesn't seem like much, but either you should green zone southern India, Java, Britain, and central Gaul, or dezone all of the Subsaharan, non-Nile African zones, and Japan, Korea, Taiwan, all North American zones, eliminate red South American zones...

 

[Israelite9191]

Actually, the Nok of W. Africa developed an Iron Age civilization pre-dating the Common Era, making the Benin area well deserving of a green zone. The Chavin of Peru and the are date from the late Iron Age themselves, making the Andean Ridge and the Pacific Coast likewise deserving, although maybe of only a green zone. The first signs of advanced mound builder culture are quite old and date to the early Common Era, likewise with early Four Corners culture. Taiwan and Honshu, I admit, are debatable as green zones, but distinct and interesting situations could arise if anyone chose these as starting locations. Japan I see your point with since they did not develop a substantial culture until well into the Common Era, Korea however I intend to maintian since even though indpendent kingdoms took a while culture did develop there at an earlier point. Java, I guess, could be added, although wether or not they were the most developed, I am not sure, particularly considering that the earliest strong naiton in the Indonesian Archipeligo arose in Sumatra. Furthermore, I think that I will add a Persian zone or two before the final draft.

 

[North King]

Then add Java and Sumatra; I'll see they aren't wasted.

 

[Israelite9191]

Will do M. Nord Roy.

 

[MjM]

Looks good Isry, but red zones in the Americias? I say no, also to the Japanese zones, and Korea. Other than that good, and Ill echo how I like the red river thingy I devised.

 

[Israelite9191]

I already explained the red zones in S. America (see post #30) although I may make one or both green zones. I also am eliminating theJapanese green zone, although I am keeping the Korean one (also explained in post #30).

 

[MjM]

From what Ive read your keeping Korea, people didnt even live there in 4000BC~ (which is Im guessing the date this starts as.)

 

[Israelite9191]

I would start it a little later, and if I did just the places where civilization was in 4,000 BCE then only the Fertile Crescent, Egypt, the Indus River,and N. China would be startable. Green zone is meant to help differentiate between areas that gave rise to civilization early and independently and those that gave rise later/dependently.

 

[Oruc]

Somebody fix wales

 

[stalin006]

something i did a while back. never came to anything w/ it.

 

[Silver Steak]

I boldly request that the bored among you make a random NES map for me and my NES!

I am looking for something Oddworld-esque, with rivers and mountains if possible. If not, I can add those myself later.

Anyone?

 

[Erik Mesoy]

How big do you want that random map, and how continental do you want it?
