Surely

We Vikings shall patiently wait until the Earth Council give us a map

[Crazed Rabbit]

I suppose I could whip out a map if you want.

That would be very helpfull

[Crazed Rabbit]

Well, the map is done.

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

Before we start, however, I think we need to discuss if we wish to implement any changes to the rules suggested by Kraellin last round (maybe you should PM him to see if he wants to join);
Castles - must one assault them before attacking towns nearby?
Boats - Do players have to buy transport for troops across water, or maintain separate navies?
Trade - should location affect trade? I think it should, and I think I might be able to make an excel spreadsheet that could calculate taxes for cities depending on who they traded with, whether or not they're a port city, etc.

City Density - this is important. We could make varying levels of density in the map, ranging from very low (desert) to low (steppes) to middling (most of Europe) to high (regions with rich farmland).

Untravelable regions - the alps and certain deserts, for example.

I suggest that we need transport ships and 'war boats'

Castles - must one assault them before attacking towns nearby?

No, unless you dont want to have problems with enemy reinforcements

Trade - should location affect trade? I think it should, and I think I might be able to make an excel spreadsheet that could calculate taxes for cities depending on who they traded with, whether or not they're a port city, etc

Im not sure on how to do this

Yes.I can make an research and I can make a new map with the climate.However, I suggest that we need an spreadsheet to see whats included and whats not.

I will Pm Kraelin.

[Crazed Rabbit]

We can use the current map for climate/density purposes, it just would require a bit of coloring.

For simplicity's sake, I suggest just one type, built in port cities with a certain level of development.

Neither am I, but I think I might be able to get something to work.
