I understand, thanks! It is too complicated for me, so i will alter my plans

I don't think you should have to alter your plans. You have the map of Maldria, and you have the general description of the northern and southern portions of the island, plus the info from the Tribes of Maldria thread (and the fact that I haven't mapped out that story gives you some room to help define it in a way that fits with your plans). We've talked a bit about your plans before, and I think anything you likely have in mind will be ok as long as it doesn;t contradict something already there. It takes the players doing things to flesh things out. Go ahead with your plans. Personally, I'm looking forward to what you add to our knowledge of Maldria.

News from the front!

Player request; if we're developing the game, could the next step be mainland cities? I'm sure we'd all love to build up our homelands, and I'm eager to send the Bishop to Guelph. I've been putting it off long enough. 

Maybe for balance you could say mainland cities generate less income, but are worth more in trade value? Something like that.

Just thought I'd mention that all the shipping reports are in at the KPA editorial offices, and a new edition of the Advertiser is expected out next week.

Hi all. Just a reminder that the deadlines for the current MRCA and the Oktoberfest mini-challenge are both a week away.

Hi guys! I was looking at the Farstrider's Guide to Halos to continue the story of my Merchants' District and I realized that most of the foreign kings have disappeared over time (Varcoast, Mokolei, Monomonto, Lotus Empire, Ghaskin Confederacy...), or were never added (Altonia, East Terraversa...). Should we do something about that? The one of Varcoast was a picture I did, which I removed by mistake from my Flickr.

The disappearance of the Lotus and Monomonto rulers (and perhaps the Ghaskin one) has to do with a change in policy that Flickr made some time ago. You can only have a certain percentage of hidden/private images in your photo stream. I think those rulers were on a separate account with almost all pictures set to private, which probably got them deleted and thus severed the deep links. I think I still have most of the pictures saved somewhere, so I could reupload them and edit the new links back into the posts (Lotus and Monomonto - the others I don't know).

If you guys want, I can add/host these rulers files on brickseas.net to include on the guide.
