Conquer Club

Just wondering what people think of this, it is set in the late stone age when, while there wasn't an ice age, the sea levals were much lower, this created a lush land in the north sea whare the majoritly of people lived.

Origional guide:

could be a cool map, throw it in the map ideas thread thats stickied to the top.

edit: didnt see the poll.

now lets see what you can do with that map.

the idea is interresting so good luck with the map.

I like the idea but Dogger has a rather rude meaning in the UK at least... I know its the genuine name but perhaps something different would be a good idea to save ridicule.

its not dogger Guiscard...its called dogging lol

I know... And if you are a person who partakes in dogging you are a _____



Or at least its widely used in Yorkshire and in Leicestershire (don't know about the rest of the country)

just ask Stan Collymore...He made it famous lol

yea i live near a beach called dogger head, it lives up to its name

since theres a bit of intrest and newcastle still hasnt sent me the latest scotland map i might try a basic do-up of this

Ok ive started with a first draft to see how it would work, ive added a few continents but i couldnt get any colours looking good so their in grayscale for now

Continents:
Britain
Doggerland(or any politer name )
Europe
Denmark
Norway
Scotland

Ive been wondering how to do territory namesfor this map as its set in the stone age, So far its eather:
*Modern names (underwater featurs or old landscapes for doggar)
*Roman names for native tribes (still underwater features old landscapes for doggar)
*Land features (hills, rivers, moors present in that time)
*Mixture

Edit: is there any way to turn this into a new poll?

I thought this was a joke thread when I saw it... amusing!!

Good luck with the map - I like the idea...

Naming wise - are there no names from those times? Can you find a map with any names? If not use modern ish names - and try and find some names of parts of the north sea for Dogger.

C.

there are no origional names as doggarland sunk under the sea thousands of years ago but ive got got some good names of the features found under the north sea

bumpy

I don't think you should have continents for this map. You should instead have 'capitals', like ideal places for cavemen to settle (near rivers, etc.).

good idea, that would make it different

Fonts easy, i can change that in seconds, which bit is pixelated?

Edit:Legend i will add onto the side of the map once its sorted out, any ideas for bonuses?

I'd contemplate adding a sea route from the Vikings to Dogger Fens or similar?

C.

it really all of the boarders. try going for at least a 2px brush.

what program are u using?

I thaught of that but doggar has 5 borders already, that would make it almost impossible to hold

I'm using Gimp, unfortunatly it only has 1px or 3px brush, however theres a good tool that might make it look less pixelated

its an impossible one to hold any. no harm in puttin in anther boarder

gimil wrote:its an impossible one to hold any. no harm in puttin in anther boarder

i was thinking of taking away borders rather than adding

mabye i could split it into two

anyway ive found a way to make borders better

spliting it to 2 sounds better
