Neat. Good to see a definite scale!

I will not permit the word "inadequate" to appear in the same sentence as yourself, ShyShyriath wrote:...my topographic efforts seem woefully inadequate now.
It is a nice map though. I like the lat 'n' longs... they don't get enough use these days.

Don't feel bad. Someone with ungodly amounts of time will be able to identify that I stole heavily.

Re: Maps of Kezan
It's not as though you lifted the topography from a World War II map of Guadalcanal and dropped the coastline of Kezan on top, so we'll just carry on praising you to the rafters for your originality and talent and there is nothing you can do about it.

Re: Maps of Kezan
And doing the scale is not difficult. Each pixel on the MCS map is 12 km at the equator, so you just take that and multiply by the cosine of the latitude. I feel a bit lazy for not adjusting the map for distortion. It's still in an equirectangular projection.

Re: Maps of Kezan
You did rather cram them in... Lontinere, the smallest ward in Lunaris is bigger than the whole of Kezan Different jurisdictional functions I know, but the Kezanian (Kezanite, Kezani?) wards are tiny.

The Dutch bought Manhattan for 1 pound too. Look how crammed that is now.

Re: Maps of Kezan
I didn't want to name them "townships" or "towns", because most are more agglomerations of hamlets with a center for the local government. But you make a good point... I do need to set a demonym. Maybe when I finish naming the wards.

Well it's not as if it was a one time investment.
