IB2 FD Map

[Riothamus]

Wow, really that advanced, cannot wait. Is there a list of factions? and am I right in thinking there is more than one campaign ?

Correct. Their will be two campaigns

[ATN]

What about them Saxons?

[Riothamus]

What about them Saxons?

That would be a yes

[tank0fell]

Just a suggestion, how about some small independent states? I don't like that half the world is grey... but that's just my opinion.

Only if it reached to where FD1 was...

[Riothamus]

Redid Britain, Scotland and Ireland Added major rivers, lakes throughout the map

Rivers such as the Euphrates and Tigris are widened at the mouth and are navigatable but do continue on the map
in their geographical correctness

Nice

Well if you intend on keeping it as a vanilla-ish map, good luck finding any real success with it. I just look at that map and then think of IBFD 1's campaign map and then I look back at this map and shudder.

Is anything else planned to fill up some of the empty space in the east in russia and the caucasian area? Maybe Avars? Alans? Armenians?
Slavs could be the Venedi, a tribe of slavs. Franks could be Salian Franks or Merovingians, Salian was the Frankish tribe that dominated, Merovingians the royal family that lead them. There could be a remnant Hun kingdom in the Bosporus. And Swedes and or Gotars could be in the small sweden bit you have.

Looks good. Is the only difference between the map on the first page and the provinces planned, the number of territories?

The top pic on this page has more territories than the one beneath but the one beneath looks planned/fleshed out on relative faction borders.

The bottom one is more of the mods goal. The one above is the completed portion thus far. The 457 Majorian campaign(above) may need a few more factions than the 453 death of Attila one

I've been editing the map and names while adding the factions

[Riothamus]

457AD campaign



453AD campaign pending

[Dahoota]

Looking good, can't wait to play it when you get time to release it

Keep up the good work

Well thats old post, know i already know better

[Riwallon]

the Romano-British will not control Brittany?

[MathiasOfAthens]

Not the parts that were under Anglo-Saxon occupation.

[Riwallon]

i meant Brittany (the region on the west of the actual France on the south of cornwall)

[MathiasOfAthens]

Sorry mate I read Brittany as britain for some reason (reminder to self to slow down when reading).

At the time the people in Brittany were independent of the Romano British in Britain. People from Britain actually immigrated to Brittany but there wasnt really a govt or leader from Britain ruling the people of Brittany. Honestly it would be better for an independent faction there but there are prob not enough faction slots.

[Riwallon]

thanks for the rep,
as i see, brittany seems to be split in three on the map, the western part (probably Vannes "Gwened" for capital) an eastern part (Rennes "Roazhon" maybe) and a southern part (Nantes "Naoned").
The 2nd wave of Briton emigration (the first was a military one which began at the III century), The "Seven founder saints" arrived in brittany at the begining of the V century (probably because of the pict and scott raids that force romano british to call saxon's help) and they founded all the main city of the western part. Of what i read it seems that the "Seven founder saints" were Romano-British aristocracy. They were so linked to the Romano British that they gave to Brittany's region the same name that the place they were from: Cornouaille (Kernov in breton) and domnonia (Devnon in breton)...
So i think that giving to romano british the western part of brittany should be logic, because the aristocracy were implanted on both side of the sea and because at that time, they already ruled the main places of Brittany.
Well that just my point of view, but i might be missing something...
PS: sorry again for my English
