Regional Descriptions: Help the EBII Team

[Eliasmanos]

Hi guys :) The region of Corinth could perhaps be named more precisely (especially in comparison with Sparta). The term Peloponnesus is applied to the whole peninsula of S.Greece, not only the north part of the peninsula. It should (perhaps/imo) be called Korinthia (& Elis, since it is supposed to include Olympia). The regions in Peloponnesus are 7; Korinthia, Argolis, Arkadia, Elis, Achaea, Messine(Messinia) and Lakonia (Lakonike).

Not that I know of, no...

I did this map to see where the gaps are. Its interesting to see where people have chosen to do first, and the large regions of bare history.



If anyone wants to help ask first. I don't know what has been done since first release.

[Arjos]

Get in contact with @Mithridates VI Eupator I believe he either has started working on, or has a general idea for Saurashtra and Sindh among other descriptions...

As for your map, it seems to be missing only Maiotis and Elymais, which were written, but did not make it in the first release :)

[joshmahurin]

Interesting perspective thanks!

I actually did write a description for Dahyu Mazsakata (one of the "grey" provinces on your map), which was received with some degree of appreciation on the Campus Martius subforum (no idea if that one still exists). However, it didn't appear in the game at all, not even in a version improved and expanded upon by someone else (instead, there's still a blank). So yeah.

Probably just got temporarily lost somewhere in the myriad random things to do.

Well, I seem to have lost access to the CM and in any case, can't promise to do anything constructive in the next month or two due to real life interference. So I guess someone else needs to re-find it (and maybe amend it in case any release before Easter is planned).

@paullus your thoughts?

iv finished Saurashtra that history took along time. I'm just doing the travelers log now its going to be a mauryan spy :)

[Mithridates VI Eupator]

Great, looking forward to Reading it.

Don't make the traveler's log overly actiony or character driven. Whatever province you read about, you should feel that the "traveler" could really be you. At the same time, it should really be like a slightly more immersive summary of the following, more academic, texts about history, geography etc.

[joshmahurin]

Yes it is supposed to be from the perspective of any generic traveler visiting the region, nothing specific or it won't make sense to everyone's circumstances. But very glad to see another province only done :) Thank you for taking the time and effort!
