First of all, you should probably tell us about the border between nations and what delineates them. A river? A canyon? Signed treaties along the 44th parallel of division on the planetary map? Constant warzone as a permanent border? Also, is the world known as a planet or is it still a flat-world continent? Is the world even planetary- perhaps it's something like Discworld, or a new geometric design entirely?

So the Istar are basically elf-equivalents- they're better than humans BECAUSE THEY ARE. Why don't we all play Istar instead of crappy humans then?

Maybe a bit more info about each nation? I mean, the level of detail I've used in my world I consider a bare minimum. More info on tech development of different regions? Economy? Exports and Imports? If you wanted to be detailed, climate and culture would be nice.

How does magic work? For example, is Arcane Shield a deflecting shield? Is it an attack-absorbing shield? Does it ablate incoming attacks, neutralizing them? Does it reflect all types of attacks, or only magical attacks, or only physical attacks? Is the shield full-body, spherical, hand-mounted, frontal forcefield? Where does it get its power from? Does it glow? Is it visible at all, or only visible when you get attacked? Details like this make magic really fun to use.

I recall you wanted me to tell you how I made a map. Go google "fractal map generator" and make one yourself, it's not too difficult Smile

Why crossbows only in Harmana- is it because tech levels are too low in other places? Any gunpowder or similar later inventions? What's the wildlife like- Earthlike, or a more alien ecology?

That's not too much detail- I got to about the same detail level in my world designing process and it only took me a few hours to type up. Come on man, you can do it! Wink
