Hi Chaps

Returning to the original full map idea, I have uploaded a few
pictures of various maps for the Hyborian campaign:
1. The Nations
2. The PC locations
3. Civilised provinces
4. Terrain
5. Income levels
I have not named the provinces as yet, but that shouldn't take long.

As you can see, I have allocated 10 Nations as PC nations:
1. Aquilonia – Feudal England and France
2. Asgard – Dark Age Norse
3. Hyrkania – Dark Age Mongol
4. Khitai – Ancient China (Sorcerous Magic)
5. Nemedia – Medieval Germany
6. Stygia – Ancient Egypt (Necromantic Magic)
7. Turan – Medieval Turkey
8. Uttara Kuru – Feudal Japan (Sorcerous Magic)
9. Vendhya – Dark Age India
10. Zamora – Dark Age Byzantine
11. Anything else anyone might like to add..?
You can either select a first and second choice and I'll assign
nations, or we can put the above nations in a hat and you can draw
randomly.

Magic will effectively be dealt with as modifiers or Nation-specific
strategies during play.

Cheers
Ian
