Hello everybody; first of all, excuse my bad english, I'm spanish, and don't write properly

.
Well, I'm a Song of Ice and Fire Song fan, a series of books written by George R. Martin, and I'd like to play in the world he imagined. It's a very apropiated world for Conquer club; it has already some continents, some regions that give specific powers and abilities and many conflictive borders

. There's a link where you can examine the map and the "continents" within.

Maybe the fact that the map is vertical could bring some problems; I don't know if it has a copyright too.
Well, nothing more, it's just a suggestion

. Have a good time.

People have attempted making a map of Westeros in the past, so far no one has been successful. Permission was obtained by
KEYOGI a long while back

Although i would ask again, i don't see why they wouldn't say yes again
Previous attempts

There is plenty of support from what i've seen but no one seems to want to make the map

If anyone ever makes a map of Westeros, they will have a lot of nitpickers and i doubt it will be a very pleasant experience.

Please do this! I have wanted to see this forever, even tried it once. If you want ideas:

I think it does a really good job dividing it up into "continents". Also, you could get a bonus for holding X number of towers on the wall, but you can't attack the rest of the world from the wall or something.
Also, you could get bonuses for holding X key cities. (Winterfell, Riverrun, The Eyrie, Pyke, Casterly Rock, Highgarden, King's Landing, and Sunspear). Maybe if you hold two you get +1, 2=+2, 3=+4, 4=+6, 5=+10, etc.)
Mountains and rivers could make boundries. It would be AWESOME!!!

I could see a bonus structure very much tied to the fealty system. For example once you have a faction's capital territory you can get bonuses from having a certain number of lords and/or sub-lords, and so forth.
