The Cirnii would probably be located between the Khendros and the Xengari. Ususally in my mental projection of the map I think that the quicker two species encountered one another the closer they are.

First I will provide a rough relative size comparison

Spoiler:

Second so speaking of your mental location would this be a good representation of the general locations if not anything specific or particularly accurate?

Spoiler:

More or less, I did imagine the Khendros in the top left and the Septhi in the top right though. I also want to point out (I think I have mentioned it someplace else) that the size of the Khendros would on a galaxy map would be disproportioanlly high compared to their amount of planets due to the vast distances between each one of them.

This closer?

Spoiler:

Admittedly I would assume that the Khendros would control territory in bases of power around their planets, and presumably any wormhole stations and not project power across vast distances like other Empires that might travel by Hyperdrive or Warp (though admittedly Hyperdrive would be a little distorted by the paths as well).

I think i stated, and i imanaged the Septhi starting at the edge of an outer-arm of the Galaxy, growing along the arm. Using their Warp-Drives to move up it. This has led to them creating an isolated but safe empire, which just grew, and grew, until they encountered their first other Sentient. The Khendros.

Somewhere along those lines (I did think of the Septhi in the bottom left corner but that was my fault for writing it wrong)

You take what you can get and there were not really any habitable worlds that close to Khemenos so they had to stretch out.

Thank you for that.

Alright.

I'll see what I can do but I am kinda busy today so I won't likely be able to get anything done till around 5 pm GMT and if not then it will likely be further delayed till 9 or 10 pm GMT. I may end up reply to some other things as text normally takes less time then images will, mostly I am going to try to create a usable representation of the map.

First Draft, need to add more, have more info. Preferred fonts? Locations of other Empires? Likely will need to expand map.

So far that looks pretty good, but yeah definately a first-draft

Any suggestions for the second draft?

Background Expanded a bit, nothing is final, all suggestions welcome.

May I suggest that you add the Swarm to the left (at about the same height as the Xengari) and the Nakturians to the right on the map?

Is there a more specific location for the Nakturians, also I seem to have forgotten Macheidiema. Do they have a preferred location, or at least a necessary one?

Spoiler:

Mayby a slightly bit higher (closer to the Septhi). I am not Ell Ärks but the most logical thing would be that the Macheidemians are above even that, close to the Septhi and the Nakturans.



Also it has been Swarm singular for some time now and it is just the Khendros (the State).

Thank you for the corrections on the map. The Empire of Macheidiema will stay there provisionally until I am contacted either confirming or requesting movement of the location.

Spoiler:

As well I have a few different fonts for the Swarm and want to know which you like best.

Current:

Children:

Ghastly:

Terror:

Zombie:

If anyone wants a specific font for their nations just ask.

Why are all of your fonts so menacing? what do you have against my cuddly little swarmlings?

On a more serious note I think that the current one works fine.

Alright then. This now makes me question my choice in spending how much time I did finding those...  

Please have a Terrific day!

Also does anyone have suggestions for the map?

Im not good with Fonts so i dunno which would suit the Septhi best. Apart from my lack of knowledge of fonts i think it looks pretty good, i wouldnt know what else to add, perhaps have the borders less like a bubble? But that might complicate things.

Alright, I can see what I can do about borders but I can't make any promises.

I have not had much success but hope is not lost.

What do people think about teased material from paradox? Also I have some ideas regarding future rule sets that I'll ask for feedback on soon.

Most of it is quite interesting, I think I will do a R'lyehan playthrough once the expansion comes out to see just how mean I can be towards my poor subjects as well as how powerful I can become with the psionics.

The new material looks amazing, some of the best they have ever done so far.

I have some ideas in mind however I still wish I could become the space scourge. /sigh

I have to agree primarily because of the utility of what they are adding, however I hope Hive-minds get expanded past what they currently seem to be, perhaps in a dlc dedicated to them and similar kinds of races in the future.

As well, Caspoi do you have a preferred location of Asomos or should I just put it at the edge of Khendros space somewhere?

Yeah, just put them in some corner, they would be tiny though since they still have not properly reached out from their solar system.

Caspoi wrote:Yeah, just put them in some corner, they would be tiny though since they still have not properly reached out from their solar system.

I was considering just a circle to represent the system. I'll get on it once I am able.

Does this look alright?

Sure.

I was just wondering if you two were going to continue that exploration thing? Just saying that Ell-Ärks hasn't logged in in almost a month and a half.
