Title: New map: The Blessed Isle
Description: A map based on the world of Exalted


Sasooli - March 15, 2011 12:08 AM (GMT)
This is a map based on the Blessed Isle, the huge island at the centre of Creation in the White Wolf game Exalted. I thought it was a world that would lend itself well to Dominions, and the Isle is a reasonable size for a good map. This is 75 land + 11 water provinces. The water is very spread out, but there are several islands unaccessible from the mainlands for a water player to snaffle and avoid such a bad domkill risk. I've never played water nations though so I dunno how doable that is.

Let me know any comments you have or if you use the map, and if when you find broken province links &cetera.

Download available here.

This version is fairly vanilla with no fixed starts or anything.

I intend to make a couple of other versions in due course: fixed starts, NI, and maybe a sort of scenario one where the feuding houses of the crumbling Realm are subjected to waves of invaders in the form of the Bull of the North, Mask of Winters, Locust Crusade and basically every other apocalyptic event that White Wolf feels like throwing at its characters for some reason.

The art is mainly from the official map, with some changes by Stephenl and by me. Province names and types were taken with a nigh-autistic level of detail from printed supplements.

Wow, that is one seriously nice looking map.

Since the White Wolf artists couldn't be here tonight I'll happily accept your praise/sacrifice on their behalf.

She really is a nice piece of work though, aint she?

Very nice, any chance we'll see a huge entirety of creation map at some point?

Thanks! Yeah, I'm planning for that to be my next project after fiddling with versions of this for a bit.

Welcome to the boards, by the way.

Some provinces really need to be set to #nostart.

#15 is pretty egregiously bad.

Other provinces on that end of the island could probably be set to nostart too so you don't start with your back to the coast and one real direction to expand in. 24, 28, 44, 53 would all be bad places to start.

Very new to Dominions, very new to these boards, but very much an old hand at Exalted. Seeing this makes me a happy camper.

Here's hoping it gets updated some day.

That would be very, very awesome indeed!
