Re: Neveron Map Coordinates

0,0 is in the center of the largest continent (the main "NW" one). The "original" continent that is, which is smaller than is shown there.
Incidentally not many people know what the colors represented. Back in the very very earliest days of Neveron there were eight player run "Baronies". The borders all crossed 0,0 where they met like spokes. It was unusual for empires to have territory outside their own Barony, so the map back in 2002 was very coordinated, unlike the photo in this thread with colors splashed all over the map. The largest and most prestigious empires in the game were color coded (they were mostly Barons, but a few non Baronial empires were color coded as well). Huge amounts of land were owned back then, by size empires were far far larger than they are today.
With the death of the Barony system in November, 2002, the Star League War of Nov-Dec 2002 (Nev's first large scale war), and the early 2002-2003 transition of Nev from an arena-ffa game into an actual wargame, the colors spread across the map.
It would be interesting to get a wide angle photo taken of today's map, with yesterday's empires/colors. I am sure the map would be far less colorful.
