| Possession is 9/10ths of the law. |

The other 1/10th is being mean spirited.
We're actually claiming the bay were -300/-774 is and the coast up north up to -300 -700. Further North, we'll be setting some outposts to keep the gnolls in check.

Interesting that many of the public claimers are gravitating toward the southwest sector... EDIT: http://uk1.illyriad.co.uk/view_faction.asp?FactionID=47 Going to be crowded down there. |

Pretty much already given, top faction taking a spot is more likely to be unopposed unless they clash with each other. |

We (Harmless) didn't even know our settlement plans clashed with yours. We're up to our ears just working out non-human factors, and our internal claims organization was focused on a region that was only near this claim. My own cities are all over the place because early birds sniped my little fork in the river, and I'm quickly discovering that I need HarmlessButler to know more (high-level information) about my cities to better organize and identify them. I'm thinking "personal region" grouping for now, possibly followed by tagging to identify specializations and unfinished development/production plans. Where's "UML for city planning" when you need it? |

| What I would give for a bigger map at this point. An xml file of all squares and their terrain types would be totally sufficient. |

OMG yes. Even just a full screen map at the current scale would help a lot. Obviously full screen at half the scale would be 4x as good. |

| I wonder how difficult it would be to implement a map that worked like google maps... |

Vit da vay dey hef tiles stored? and considerink how it vorks? its processor intensive. so rpetty difficult to get to vork cleanly, from my experience buildink da map for Armokumid. Vot ve vould be easier is to create sometink like da current map, doh, but allow hyu to zoom in on an area by setting an image map over da current map, to create a block about da size of da map ve did. For better efficiency, vot ve need is zoomed out versions of da tiles all in a single image. Dat vould provide a really quick vay to load dem up. If hi had dat and da tile data hI've requested in da data forum, me and Akhier could hef a world map up in a day or two. And hI can do da tiles image part, so dat just leaves vorld data and hI can give hyu guys vot hyu vant. |

The relocate spell was bound to be a problem for the top alliances. It's easier to move 3 or fewer towns for most people, than it is 6+ that the top players have. And even a strong military doesn't matter... everyone is moving, nobody wants to send out a far-off siege because even if it succeeds, you waste a LOT of time, and by the time your boys get home someone else might have ninja'd the  spot. |

It wasn't too bad... Some hiccups, but we got through it pretty well...

Heh...actually I was completely displaced by faster newbies. One cluster became two/three clusters fairly spread apart along the same river (with one quite inland) and the other had to choose an entirely different mountain range. Luckily I think my new spaces are less contested and equally mediocre. What I've really needed all along were better food sov tiles/res plot distribution, and I wasn't getting those either way. City #10 is theoretically possible, but between this and the locational spread I likely can't actually achieve it. |

We're plenty occupied rebuilding sovereignty and (in my case) pumping a bunch of new features into HarmlessButler to help deal with it all. Given the 10 square radii between any of our cities, I don't anticipate any short-term issues. I expect we'll be in touch well before any do arise. |
