[OLD] Map Updates/Signup

Ypogegrammeni

Nation name: Ypogegrammeni
Capital city: Tiryns
Climate/biome: Köppen Csb (temperate cool dry-summer) with Csc in the interior mountains.
Significant geographical features (mountains, rivers, etc.— and where they are located): A western coastal plain rises gradually to a mountainous interior, with a few small rivers running east-west ending in V-shaped bays where old river valleys have been flooded by the sea. In the southern interior there is a large freshwater lake. The drop from the mountains to the sea in the east is significantly sharper due to the patterns of geological uplift (see, approximately, Taiwan for a topographic profile).

(Or, if you've got too much to do to generate a new island shape, I would also be perfectly fine with some portion of the island near the Taco Republic, if that's still up for grabs.)

Lammas

Nation name: Lammas
Capital city: Beltane
Climate/biome: Alpine/continental, marked season changes, heavy precipitation in winter (snow) and spring, pleasant summers
Significant geographical features (mountains, rivers, etc.— and where they are located): The country of Lammas is a landlocked, heavily mountainous nation, almost entirely covered in forest except where the mountains are steepest and reach above the tree line. The highest mountain ranges, capped with perennial snows, stand mainly in the South and in the East. Settlements are fairly disconnected, mostly nestled within the narrow glacial valleys between the peaks. The only settlement of considerable size is Beltane, the capital. It sits among the foothills, in the West, but even here there is nothing that could be called a plain. A large river flows through Beltane, draining all the rain and meltwater from the depths of the mountains, and then goes on to leave Lammas and flow to the sea through [other country].
Any other information or requests: (Ranked by order of priority, because I want things but I know I'm not the only person on the map)

Placement in the North. I like the general area from Eryndlynd through to Esterild, but I don't know where I can check for biome so put me somewhere else Northern if that isn't appropriate.
"Interesting" borders (no straight lines) that are consistent with a high mountain geography. Also, I'd love for the country not to look too square or round. Examples of what I like: Austria, Switzerland, Tajikistan. Examples of what I would like to avoid: Poland, Zimbabwe, Egypt.
Area equivalent to more or less 800x800 px. This does not have to be exact, of course, I would just like an area that is >2 times the little 500*500 square, without necessarily being sprawling like the larger nations on the map.
If river names are to appear on the map I'd love to name the large river running through Lammas? This may be irrelevant as I see no names for now.

LadyAcorn

Nation name: The Void Territories
Capital city: Kalypso
Climate/biome: Tropical/Island
Significant geographical features (mountains, rivers, etc.— and where they are located): A few small islands with mountains on each and an active volcano on the smallest island. Otherwise no major features. By a few islands I mean like three or four pretty tiny islands.
Any other information or requests: Nope I'm honestly just happy to have a chance to be on the map. I'm pretty chill about how it looks and where it ends up.

Caracasus

Looking really good. Esp. Pleased to see how many rivers Caracasus has!

Areulder

Updoot

And then there were two.

AltmerDominion

So the Dominion borders Uan an Boa, Montmorencia, Errinundera, and (of course) Hyrule! Very happy with how the map is turning out!

Zwangzug

Just a reminder that I linked to an outline of what Zwangzug should look like in my first post, and I'd greatly appreciate if that could be copied over?

Areulder

Queue is empty \o/
Also I've filled in the rest of the land area with uncharted wilderness.

Zwangzug If you like I can add more indication of the mountain range and make the border smoother and more squared like it is in your image. I'm not sure if that's what you mean though.

Zwangzug

Areulder No, the mountains are fine, it's just the shape of the borders (esp. western) that threw me off). I have more detailed maps on a smaller scale so I'd like to be able to keep them IC-compliant. But if it's mostly just an approximation, that's fine too.
Thanks for all your hard work! ?

Palos_Heights

Areulder Missing one

Areulder

Palos_Heights Oh shitewvswrbwr0ibjwnvf
You're back!

Zwangzug Could you link me to the more detailed map then? I'd like to go off that.: Should be better in the next map.

Uan-aa-Boa I'll go check. I based nation names off the requests queue: yup Chilledsville, will be changed in the next update.

Uan-aa-Boa

Heads up - I believe the nation marked on the map as Chilledenuff is actually called Chilledsville, with Chilledenuff being the name of its leader.

This is looking seriously good guys, well done.

Zwangzug

Areulder
@Palos_Heights good to see you! ?

ForgottenBeauty

Areulder Looks great! Thanks.
Not to be picky but would it be ok to add a mountain in the back top right? It's sort of like surrounded in a valley filled with lakes, trees, waterfalls, etc. As well as move the capital slightly higher up between to the two lakes.
Thanks a bunch man great job!

Seagull

Is it too late for me to apply for a map spot?

Areulder

Seagull Not at all.

Also updoot.

ForgottenBeauty

@Areulder Sent you a telegram regarding my map location.

Alaska

Nation name: Cosona

Capital city: Asdas

Climate/biome: North resembles Southern Norway, South resembles Noord-Holland. Very rainy.

Significant geographical features (mountains, rivers, etc.— and where they are located): some mountains in the Northwest, lots of rivers all over the country. Asdas is located at the top of a river delta very close to the sea. Some small islands near the coast.

Any maps you'd wish to attach: I drew one up as a clarifying draft to avoid any confusion left by vague wording. It's obviously not the exact shape or size, just a bit to help you in case it turns out to be helpful 1

Any other information: I would like all the borders to look natural, meaning no straight lines or the such. I'd like if you made full use of the 500x500 pixel limit, but if you go under to make it look better then that's absolutely okay.

Thank you!

Alaska

Alaska
Additional clarifications:

1) I drew in the tiny islands on my reference map
2) I really love that placement, but if you'd rather me be somewhere else that's totally up to you.

Errinundera

Hi. Some requests about Errinundera on your map. The nation is fully landlocked. Not only are there no sea borders, there are no lake borders. Indeed, Errinundera has no lakes at all. With no passable roads and no airports the only way into the country is by riverboat or by bushwalking.

I hope that's OK with you.

Turbeaux

Errinundera Maybe you have a cave that connects to the sea. I hope that y'all like submarines! ?
