Extend the bottom of Almalexia claim near the city?

Post by Mortimer »

So I've been hopping around the city seeing all the work put into it when I reached the end of the map, where I was presented with a nasty fall into the blue. The thing that bothered me was how close the end of the map was to the city itself. A city like Merelag is close to the end of its map but it has a mountain buffer range. The daedric ruin adjacent to the city has a dropoff, however it's a daedric ruin and not the largest and most significant city that will probably ever be created in Morrowind (bar Imperial City).

I know the discussion of moving the map claim further south a bit has been made for distant land reasons, and I see this as a perfect example of that. Even though Map 6 is nowhere close to done, a simple optional "exterior only" wouldn't be unreasonable. Screenshots of the city can't be done from a few angles because of the missing land behind it. That and the end of the map is around fifty feet away from the city walls. (There's some poor bastard whose house is ten feet away!)

Anyway, I have basically zero clout in decision making here, I just wanted to throw out some ideas for consideration.

I agree, but that doesn't really count for much either LOL.

Its not a major big deal, but it is a little bit of an issue if the land just ends only a short distance from the walls of Almalexia.

If we get a decent Dres set completed, maybe there will be added some land south to accomodate the first dres village(s).

The problem is that more to the south there is a totally different landscape..

Not that close to Almalexia, we will add a cell or two south of it, and elevate to create some decent borders.
