    Here this might be interesting for you impatient types. I made a render of the DotS map using the height map created by Resurrection with satellite data. The difference between land and water is not accurate but everything else has the exact same relative relationships as the real world.



    EDIT: Below sea level depressions in the land are also exaggerated because they show up as water on the height map.

    Beautiful map! I would + rep you if I could, but for some reason it won't let me

    What are you guys going to do with Africa by the way? Since you go all the way to Mali, will you show Timbaktu, and perhaps other Malinese/West African city states?

    Yep as city states. Africa will be corridor based according to major trade routes providing additional benefits for controlling them to represent the wealth flowing from sub-saharan Africa to north (homeland) of the factions there.

    I see you have implemened many small islands, especially in the Aegian... Are you putting PSFs on those islands?

    I copied that picture and started doing borders for different factions that will be in DotS and I even started planning first moves in my Bohemia campaign. Damn this is so sad...

    I don't know anything about the steam version. It seems like some of the features we want to have like changing faction names and symbols might not work, but I really don't know.

    This is superb! Love the details! (Finally -- islands in the Aegean as they should be represented!) Thanks for this--the ultimate teaser.

    I'm happy to see that Iceland and the northern parts of Fennoscandia are going to be included.

    To further update on the progress with the map (from last log of the SVN):

    Map Update: new heightmap, all proposed PSFs added, corrected locations of all settlements using their real world positions, revised rivers, updated names of regions and settlements (reference names should be final now).

    However a lot is yet ahead and its speed will depend on the speed of our researchers. If it's not sufficient I will probably open some research requests for public as well.

    Here is some compiled map featuring rivers, regions (not all borders are final yet), settlements/ports and psfs (green dots designating correct location but the actual PSF location might be slightly different due to limitations such as that PSF can't be on the river or next to each other etc.). See the attachment.

    I may have a few suggestions if you could upload a bigger map, I fail to see the locations of the PSF's

    It's the maximum size the map files allow. It is also PNG format so it does not suffer from scaling distortion and thus you can download it, open it in windows image viewer (or anything else) and zoom in and out freely without loss of detail.

    the HRE regions look good
    but for Saxony Lüneburg should be the capital because the Dukes (Billunger until 1106) resided there - why take Bremen ??
