--- Quote from: Kathleen Dante on February 03, 2008, 01:49:26 AM ---I just happened to be re-reading CuF. On p.162, Amara says, "If Kalarus's forces take Ceres, there will be nothing to stand between them and the capital." And on p.163, Gaius says, "I'm dispatching Third Imperian to your aid, but they cannot reach you before Kalare's forces. The Crown Legion, however, was on maneuvers south of the capital, and I ordered them to your aid within an hour of the attack. They've been force-marching through the night, and Sir Miles should be arriving with his men within hours. . . . I have already asked High Lords Placidus and Atticus to send relief forces to link up with Third Imperian."

Based on the above, I think Alera Imperia should be where Placida is currently positioned in your map. Currently, the map doesn't support Amara's statement since Kalare would have to go through Atticus to get to Alera Imperia, and the Crown Legion maneuvering in the south of the capital would have a rapid response advantage since it would have to march through Atticus to get to Ceres.

I am back and will start looking at the maps again. It's been awhile, since I've been doing other projects.
Hmm. Wonder what the bloodlands look like?

I believe Forcia and Rhodes should be switched around. Rhodes is relatively close to Kalare and both use southern slave labour. Plus it was stated in Cursors Fury that the Canim have sacked both the city of Rhodes and Parcia numerous times. Rhodes looks to far for the Canim to travel that long just to attack. Rhodes should be closer to the bloodlands and it should be on the coast

I also think that Alera Imperia should be between Aquitaine and Ceres. If the capital is where it is right now than Kalare would have to face Aquitaines legions as well as the Gaius'

As for Parcia didnt Tavi travel from Parcia to the capital in CaF? Thats a long trek from Elinarch to Parcia methinks.

But otherwise I think your doing a great job.

belgarion:
Hi,
I'm here. I've been off doing yardage books and such. Hmm. I'm searching through our map discussions about why we placed Parcia and Rhodes where we placed them.
Kalare did in fact have to face a legion from Aquitaine, I'm researching that also.

And yes, Tavi did travel from Parcia to the capital, but it was on a fury assisted boat both down to Parcia from the Elinarch and up to the capital from Parcia. Fury assisted boats/ships would travel much faster than non-fury assisted boats/ships especially upriver.

This is definitely a joint effort by a number of Alerians :). Welcome and comments are always appreciated.
Just waiting impatiently for the next book.

Laniac:
Why are we assuming that there's water south of the Calderon valley?
