[Preview] Brittanica Map Preview

[SonofPeverel]

Ahhhhhhhh, Finlanders return in our thread

[Christonikos]

So, when all Britannia factions are completed, we will see A WOTW Britannia campaign?

[SonofPeverel]

That is correct

Hey guys,

I'm following your mod sinds its start and I have to say one thing : WOOOOOOOOW ! You're doing something W O N D E R F U L there !

I've one question though : seeing your last preview over the campaign, I'm a bit confused. Is the mod going to be about Britsh Isles only ? Or is it just a first step before extending to south ?

Thanks and again, congratulations !

[SonofPeverel]

It is planned as the first step, and then we move south
I am going to merge this into the map thread when I get to a computer

[IVIarkI2I]

impressive, thought Ive got question to ask, if you guys are considering to change textures for strategic map?

[David93]

We def have some strat map resource texture changes coming, the map is still being updated on its look. If you mean like new settlement looks? Im not sure, if we can get the skills to do it, then it is def on the cards

[Exc]

Mod is looking great but i hope you will review your placement of settlements as glasgow is far to south and should be where dunbarton castle is

[SonofPeverel]

I will look into it, for sure.

Actually, as he is mentioning Glasgow, he also have a little remark ( hopefully it doesn't annoy you ) :
Aberdeen should be nearer to the coast, right at it and Inverness should be a bit more north, right at the op of Loch Ness. It would be nice if you could add the Beauly Firth as well, so Inverness would have a connection to the sea ( And pirates wouldn't spawn in Loch Ness and be stuck there ).
Otherwise I hope you'll put Stirling castle on a little hill

And maybe you could add a few more fjords at the west coast of the Northern Highlands

Sorry if this seems smart-alecky, I just want to give you advice to improve the few mistakes on this great map

[Dearg Doom]

I doubt you'll ever get the cities and towns perfect and im sure there are castles and towns not exactly at their correct place in england and ireland aswell. I think it should just be left the way it is to be honest.

I wonder if there could be an update on what % of the mod is complete? Not trying to stir up trouble with the dreaded "when is release question," just trying to cool my anticipation with a slice of reality.

[Ballacraine]

Looking very promising.

Whilst we are giving constructive geographical corrections, here is one for the Isle of Man.

Our ancient capitol of Mann, Castletown is on the South coast not at the top of Snaefell Mountain.

Balla.

Once we get the rivers and such in place, we will put the cities as close as possible to their proper location.

This is true, some cities have to be moved a bit for game balance. And thanks

More than 0 less than 100 . We hope the last few parts go quickly but I cannot give you a percentage

Yes, this will also be changed once we get the mountains and map heights polished up. Thanks!

[Mausolos of Caria]

That sounds good, thanks

[Inkie Pie]

Looking brilliant. I also skimmed through the introductory PDF and was very, very pleased by what I saw.

[Celtichugs123]

Hello there!

I am unsure if it's too late but.. May I suggest moving Inverness Castle a little more North and East, while moving Elgin more East. Also why have you chosen Dornoch as a town to represent Easter Ross? (!?!?!?) why not Dingwall (Tingvallr) a Víkingr founded town which is the de facto capital of Easter Ross.

Thanks, Celt.

[SonofPeverel]

We will be moving these cities when we have the waterways added in. I will look into Dingwall. Thanks!

Am I right in saying that you haven't finished the coastlines? Or are they going to look like that in the release?

[SonofPeverel]

We are still working on the coasts and rivers and heights features.
