I have been thinking on making a clan community map, the purpose of this map is to add more role-play realism to the clan community that is stimulate drama that can be made into epic machinima. This map will be based on a timeline just after the fall of reach and the map itself will show the current constellations (which you can find here: http://www.annalsofarda.dk/Annals-of-Arda/Maps-index-tables/Maps/Starmap.htm.) Don’t worry I am making a map that is similar to the one in the link provided, that will be easier to understand.
If you choose an area of the map and it is already claimed by another clan you will have to work an agreement with that clan, compromise or just choose another are. Do note you are limited to what your clan is call (I.e. if your clan is called Defender of Ursa Major, you would be located in that constellation).
Right now my clan Onyx Shield has ownership of the Orion Family Constellation and will be sharing that “territory” with select allies and neutral clans. That map will be updated whenever a new clan joins or one clan loses/ gains territory from another.
Benefits
-
Adds more role-play elements. - Informs clans of other clans. - Adds machinima potential in the “war” situations. - Give clans reason to conduct war other than "we were bored"Disadvantages
-
At this time it is restricted to how we see the clan community, smaller clans maybe give smaller areas. - I have never done this before so there will be problems and loop holes. - A chance of bias.It does not matter if your clan is an ally, former ally, neutral, enemy/ hostile or we did not know of your clan. We will give all a fair chance to be placed on the map. I hope for a fair amount of clans to come and try this out and see if it becomes a trend in the clan community.
