The Bringer Posted August 11, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 11, 2010 [quote name='Lord Gobb' timestamp='1281546572' post='2411226'] Ok, but like Letum said, since CN has 463,538,821 Total Nation Strength, this map covers all of CN's NS over four times. That does makes the map ridiculously huge. 75% of this map's provinces will be no man's land and that honestly won't look good at all. Halving the NS per province would be a good start, but imo about 60k/province would be the best. [/quote] But if the map was to be filled how would new Alliances be represented fairly on here without having to take down another Alliance? If people have problem with the size of the map, I seriously do not really care, I'm not doing this for you or anyone here. This map looks towards the future and how new nations, new alliances emerge and claim their stake in this hostile world. [quote name='Sunstar' timestamp='1281530309' post='2411054'] As much as I think these CN world map threads are stupid for using a real world map for a fictitious planet, it would be slightly less annoying if the ODN's name was spelled correctly. [/quote] Well the fact that One puts its nation Capital on this real world map ingame, and that we are given a choice of real world nation flags to use instead of more creative ones (not including the custom flags) seems to be why that we use a real world map here. If you believe there should be a new map for the world of Planet Bob talk to the Admin and give him a few 'suggestions' on how to construct a map for this 'fictitious planet' I am sorry I was not born in American and learned how to spell the English Language "Correctly" I shall change to "American English" in next update =/ but funnily enough that was copied from a ODN members profile so even they do not agree with this way of spelling your Alliances Name.

It would require years of uninterrupted growth from all alliances for us to even dream of such thing. Even reaching 1 billion NS in within a reasonable time (say, a few years) is highly unlikely considering we have immensely destructive wars every year, and after 4.5 years CN still hasn't gotten even close to breaking said milestone. I understand the need of space, but having 75% of the map reserved for future alliances is just a humongous overkill. Not even a third of that reserve will ever be used, if the game progresses as it has for the past 4.5 years. Don't get me wrong, this is a fun little thing and I appreciate you doing this. Having 75% of the provinces without an owner is just silly to me, and it will make this map look just as silly.

Chris Pearson Posted August 11, 2010 Report Share Posted August 11, 2010 TENE stakes claim to Three Provinces ( Our NS is 484k, 2 at 200k plus 1 free ) [img]http://i168.photobucket.com/albums/u174/pearchris/mapclaim.png?t=1281557672[/img] That is what we claim, its just northeast of The Legion.

I like the ambition that CN will grow, but its kinda naive. Anyway keep up the good work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Razzia Posted August 11, 2010 Report Share Posted August 11, 2010 Provinces at 200,000 a piece. 1,142,762 NS / 200000 ~ 5.6 Provinces. so if we get 5, please give us baja california.

Great Lord Moth Posted August 12, 2010 Report Share Posted August 12, 2010 There's something unsettlingly Cartesian about Europe. o_o Also, you should add a compass rose and give it to the RIA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] The bit on a map that points out which way north really is. Apparently the Random Insanity Alliance is magnetic. By the way, Phoenix Rising gets 13 spaces. We'd like a group in Egypt, please. Preferably including Cairo, and either along the coast or down the Nile. Home is where the heart is, although I'm keeping my individual nation in the North Atlantic. And has anyone tried claiming the Palestine area, or Kashmir?

[/quote] Okay you got me then, I will change the guidelines for this one and make it 100K per province, thats 1 Billion NS which can be made available so still means there is room for new people to emerge, but the Entire world does not have to be fulled even on this place I heard of called earth every square centimeter is not full of people. There is room for people to breathe and so Alliances do not remain landlocked and surrounded by other alliances without ability to expand without extreme prejudice. Not saying I do not want that to happen.... A big update to the map will come, Edited August 12, 2010 by The Bringer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Pearson Posted August 12, 2010 Report Share Posted August 12, 2010 (edited) So TENE would get 5? 4 for NS at 100k apiece and then the Free one? Edited August 12, 2010 by PearChris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bringer Posted August 12, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 12, 2010 (edited) Super Updated, New Changes, Provinces are now 100K per Alliance NS to better fill up the map but still mean there is room for new Alliances to join in. For note the World was divided up Economically, and it is to why there are Bigger provinces for Russia, Canada, Greenland, and Africa, the economic worth of those lands is not as much and is why they were the larger size they were. BAPS assigned 18 Provinces. RIA assigned 51 Provinces Avalon assigned 6 Provinces Umbrella assigned 58 Provinces The Lost World assigned 10 provinces =LOST= assigned 19 Provinces NPO, To Be determined.
