It would build a really interesting history I think. If one civilization was able to build sturdy river vessels that could easily go upstream like paddle wheels they would have a serious advantage over the other civs. Yup. Lots of cool ideas come just from the over view map.
    Hmm.. perhaps the only civilizations are on the rivers, with most people afraid to venture far into the inland areas( cannibalistic tribes, monsters, etc.) Lots of jungles with thick trees and heavy undergrowth to make overland travel very difficult which is why most of the towns and cities are on the rivers.

    I wanted to resurrect this thread since so many people keep commenting on how they've never seen a map from me before...Apparently all of the finished pieces are gone (hosted on an old imageshack account) so I'll post he finished map for Aurellia here. We gamed it a little, but I ended up going through a lot of life changes that thrust me from gaming quite a bit, so this campaign world was left for dead.

    Nice indeed. I like a lot the effects on the mountains labels.
