Megamod 2: Cartographic Boogaloo
Posted: Thu Oct 22, 2009 2:59 pm
Well, it's been a while since the last megamod and a lot of stuff has happened, but little of it has gotten reflected on the maps. I would like to at least keep the MCS claimsmap at http://micras.org/maps/claimsmap.png and the baronies map at http://shireroth.org/shirewiki/Image:Sh ... s.new1.PNG up to date - there are other maps, but I find these two important since the former is part of the public image of Shireroth to other micronationalists, and the latter is the map that most fully reflects our administrative structure.
http://shireroth.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=117&t=9520 never did get turned into a mod to submit to the MCS. That's going to get fixed soon enough... but I'll have to know what changes to make first. I did a bit of legwork tracking down various issues of cartographic consistency in all of the duchies. Well, mostly Brookshire, since it turns around cartographic legwork is pretty time-consuming and a bit boring. But I do have something to say about everywhere except Goldshire and Straylight. The following list includes every entry in http://shireroth.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=117&t=9520 that didn't already get submitted to the MCS otherwise:
Brookshire:
- new city, Citadel, in Caverden: http://shireroth.kuroshiro.net/forum/vi ... 15#p118515
- Vorpmadal renamed to Neurak: http://shireroth.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=34&t=10009
- City of Jugensk founded in Shimmerspring (found on the MCS map, not on the baronies map)
- County of Ž founded: http://shireroth.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=160&t=9580
- Solecism renamed Greater Lakhesis through a couple of other names
- Skyla Islands. Should they be named on the map? See http://shireroth.org/forum/viewtopic.ph ... 82#p121882 and http://shireroth.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=211&t=10033 http://shireroth.org/forum/viewtopic.ph ... 13#p123513
- The whole Musica issue. Who holds Musica at the moment? Because truth is that I just don't remember.
- Ynnraile and Neurak spun off into Goldshire: http://shireroth.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=11651
Goldshire
- Ynnraile and Neurak are now Goldshirian, obviously, but are there any other changes you'd like to make?
Elwynn:
- the renaming of Frieden to Smjörkýr - see http://shireroth.kuroshiro.net/forum/vi ... =30&t=9800
- the foundation of the city of Frieden - see http://shireroth.kuroshiro.net/forum/vi ... =95&t=9813
- Ardashirshahr is spelled Ardashirshar (i.e. without the last h) on both the MCS and baronies maps for whatever reason
- What's the story with that city in Agnesia? Is it Vijayar, Vijayanagra, or Vijayanagara? I'm leaning toward the last one, but not completely sure...
- I have no recollection of when Elwynn got reorganised into baronies... fortunately you can see from the forum structure which counties go where
- Echo City founded: http://shireroth.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=202&t=10599 - couldn't find a map of where it's located, though. Should be marked as a regional capital: http://shireroth.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=202&t=10595
Kildare:
- Lost Woods renamed to Derovograd: http://shireroth.kuroshiro.net/forum/vi ... 152&t=8891
- Some of your counties have been getting traded about different baronies for a bit; The forum structure should be up to date so I think it's best to just redraw the baronies from that
Yardistan:
- Northern Absentia renamed to Lulz: http://shireroth.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=185&t=11176
- Eastern Absentia renamed to Agningas: http://shireroth.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=181&t=11005
Dukes, citizens, countrymen, lend me your legs. What's been going on in your, or your neighbour's, Duchy that should be reflected on the claimsmap or the baronies map? Speak now or until the next megamod that's probably not going to be sent any time soon hold your peace! Also, as you'll notice there are some unclear bits and questions in the list above, I'd like it if the appropriate people could clarify stuff.
