I didn't know there was a full world beyond Tamriel.
This is a map made by PsymonStark and I thought it was his own idea, but then I don't follow any fantasy films or stories so I know virtually nothing of the maps and worlds.

Make a quick sketch of what it looks like and will look like as a risk map with territories and regions and post it here, see if it gathers any interest.

If you are graphics orientated and it has interest, perhaps then you would like to tackle making it within the guidelines of the DXII Guide to Map Making

here is a list of bb codes https://dominating12.com/tutorial/bbcode to work with. it's best to display them in a spoiler tag

While we certainly can take those maps as inspiration, it's unlikely we can use them as is on this website. Due to copyright issues, we can't just take an existing image and make a map out of it, unless the original owner agrees to the cartographer's terms of this website. This is why all maps on here are custom made for Dominating 12.

Figured I should give a heads-up just to set expectations, but it's always cool to see some ideas, and maybe create some inspiration for our map makers :)

It will be nice to see how other website's maps are constructed.

A map with one(or a few/ territory in the center that borders most(or all) of the other territorys with maybe the exception of a few isolated islands.

if this does not work can someone tell me what i am doing wrong

You wish to host something from your own private location on your device, through the internet (URL) - that's not a real thing.
You should (for example) take the picture you have on your computer and upload it here: https://imgur.com/upload
Then once you've done that, you see exactly what the new link is for the thing you uploaded and then leave it here:

[.img]lala[./img] - img tags will work best imo (take out the .)

Hi All

Suggestions, im happy to make them if i can learn how.

Vietnam and/or vietnam war.
Algerian war of independence / Battle of Algiers
Cuba and/or Cuban revolution 1958
Arab Fedayiin/Bedouin vs Ottomans/Axis (Hejaz / Jordan+Saudi)
Lebanon (just based on regions and districts)

Can any one let me know if there is interest in any of these?

Many thanks

well ggg123 - they are good ideas, but making just one map is a huge undertaking, not something u just do in a forthnight. (except for Hoodlum who just seems too spew them out).
