Let's put all region claimings on hold until I get checked which regions have been claimed, when and why. That list might lack some of them just because I couldn't recall all claimed areas when I did it. Also, I think you shouldn't claim too many areas since you have to do all design for them. This is just beginning, how things will turn out to be when you star designing cities? (Where to place buildings, what, how many, what's the history of those cities etc). When you have a few cities and dozens of smaller villages to design in each area it will take much time and there are still those monuments and possible special creatures left. You should also design some "monster" races which are not meant for players. We are starting to have enough human tribes, we probably don't want humans to be most common race or do we? We have currently humans as dominant race in 8 areas (is that right?). Since it's not realistic to have all areas designed so that there are only one race, unless that area is ruled by race which wants kill every other race, remember to mention influence of those races too, even if they have only few settlemens in the area. Use common sense in this too, it's not likely that elves live in the wastes together with orcs or that other than human slaves would live with Hilosyph. We also should have some areas which don't have any dominant race (it simply doesn't have enough people for that) or which lacks races completelly because the area is very hostile (swamps, wastes etc). - Beregar (Beregar@majik3d.org)
