Let me give it a try over the next few days and see how it goes. Is there a good blank world to start with?

Ummm, the basic world map that everyone uses? (sorry if that sounded bitter and sarcastic, I really do thank you for the help) I'll post it here in a sec.

Didn't you use it for LINES I (minus the recent changes)?
Work in Progress...
Just thought I'd get your feedback before I go further. Striped areas are multiple undefined kingdoms or states. How do you want Greece handled? In the Americas, nothing was really defined in 500 BC. Comments and suggestions welcome from all.
EDIT: Better map:

China 500 BC
Blue = Ch'in
Green = Chu
Khaki = Wu
Lt. Blue/green = Chin
Brown = Chi

The Striped area contains: Cheng, Hsu, Ts'ai, Ch'en, Sung, Ts'ao, Wei, Lu, Teng, T'an, and Chou royal domain

Thanks Birdjaguar! Not exactly what I was looking for, but still a great help!
Well what are you looking for? That's why I asked before adding anything more. The more specific you are, the better the map will be.Israelite9191 said:

I mean something of the tye that oculd be used for a NES. Just look at North King's series of historical maps. I'm sorry if I'm frsutrating you. I would do it myself, but I am horrible at that kind of thing and I have another map I am working on. Again, thank you so much for you help.
This is a historical map. It is just that most of the world was populated by unorganized tribes.Israelite9191 said:
China at that time was in complete turmoil with 6 large states and 11 smaller ones all vying for control or survival. Did you want a single china? That is not a problem, just say so. The rest of china was just unorganized towns and villages. I can color them grey if you want.
In India the Ganges plain was controlled by 16 small kingdoms. Consolidation would not happen for more than 100 years. Again if you want a single Indian state, I can make one.
In 500 BC Rome was a tiny nation. Do you want all the Italian states? Just ask.
In the Americas, there were no empires yet only culture groups.
If you tell me more about the NES you are planning, It would help. HOw many player nations do you want? Which ones? Do you want one greek nation or 10 city states?
Help me out here.

Well, actually I will be using it for reference (city placement, extent of civilizations, etc. etc.) and likely with some parts lifted to use on another map. I really don't know what to say other than to follow the NK mold. Ie, show the nations that existed (I don't need the Americas though), their approximate borders, cities, and capitals. If that is too much just say so, I will be perfectly content to wait for NK to get to it. What you have already will be of some help.

Please answer these questions:
Do you want a single china or the kindoms already shown?
Do you want Greece or all the greek city states?
Do you want all the Italian states shown separately?

Show as many of the existing nations as you can please. If in Greece for instance it is simply impossible, then show it as one nation.

I’ve posted this for comments, corrections and suggestions. I’ve put in the nations that I think people might want to play; more or others can be added. As grey areas are explored, nations will appear to interact with players. I left most of the HRE grey since it was mostly small principalities. For India I put in the Mogols and Rajput; In Africa the Songhai and Ethiopia.

Its a good map but i demand you add the Calusa Kingdom to South Florida.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calusa
Its political domain in this era was almost all of the southern peninsula.

Nice link. When the game goes up will you play them? If so, then they are in! If not, they won't appear until European make contact.Swissempire said:

Tenochitlan is way too high up; in fact, the whole Aztec empire looks transposed northward.

Nice catch, this any better? See new map above.North King said:
Swiss: and for you Calusa is in.
Anybody know if the Azores and Canaries were Spanish or Portuguese in 1500?
