Map of Ashan

Unread postby Kalah » 28 Mar 2011, 15:28

I love maps. They offer context in a simple manner, in history as well as other disciplines. In gaming, maps add to the story, allowing for a more complex story line while at the same time ensuring that players are not overly confused.

Kind of looks like they started with a map of Europe, then severely distorted all of the most prominent features.

I am more curious in what lies East/North-East and South... unexplored territories? Pigmies? Amazons? ... Aiens or Predators?

Yeah, I can see the Alps, Italy, Saudi Arabia, India, Russia, Norway/Sweden, and Denmark very clearly.

I'm expecting one of the devs to come out and say "This is in fact Earth 800K BC", lol...

They should have named it "The Known World of Ashan". Who knows what lies beyond it's uncharted edges? My curiosity knows no bounds!


Also, i live somewhere around the Sea of Shadows. Possibly near Grimheim too.
