Calm. Calm. /*tries to soothe Tsu*/
You're right. We know we have a scaling problem.
On the Calderon location, north and south, there are some inconsistencies in the books. We talked about the valley's location but haven't resolved that issue. We'll be talking about it further.

I just haven't gotten around to incorporating these changes yet. I hope to find the time this weekend.
Plus:
Ahhhh... SCALE !! AAAHHHHAAHHHH *runs away screaming in panic*

Ok, it took a while, but here is the Updated version of the map.

@Fellow Map chat participants: If i missed anything, please let me know. (I bet i did, i always do :-) )
Its a basic version, no occupations and or major destructions have been included. I will post individual Maps for those.
So there will be a map for CuF and CaF showing Canim territory, and there will be one for PF showing croach spread.
Once i have finished them *g*
Priscellie:
This looks fabulous! There's still the issue of Aquitaine needing to be one of the "Northern" cities, but this is a definite move in the right direction. Well done, all!
Here's a loaded question for you guys: If you could ask Jim any questions that would help you nail down Alera's geography, what would you want to know?
Brightbane:
Would it be cheating to ask him to put a detailed map in the next book?
belgarion:
I echo Priscellie, looks great!
One of the things we talked about was whether to include the towns mentioned in the retreat in PF on the main map if we don't have the detailed towns for the other books in Alera as well, like CaF towns. If we have the towns shown in the detailed maps, we probably don't need Uvarton, Marsford, etc. shown in the big map. Otherwise, we need to add towns, like Vaucusgard,
Mastings, etc.
Aquitaine is still an issue as Priscellie pointed out. We talked about his placement without resolution. Possibly, First Lord's fury will resolve the issue for us. (I hope).
We also talked about showing "the Vale", of course, we couldn't resolve it's size or placement, that's a known issue also. We know it's fairly large but the exact size is still under debate.
The Calderon Valley is more to scale in this one and that's good. I'm a little bothered by the look of the valley. Right now, it looks like it and the Garrison are in Marat territory . I don't get that impression from FoC, and we did talk about that during the chat.
We'll keep working at it.
