Man, a lot of posts when i was asleep. But that's timezones for ya.
Ok, i'd love to suggest a starting zone, but the map isn't super clear on one thing. The green hues are too close to each other and therefore it's hard to see where the different forests are, or in my case.
Swampland.
So checking the map last time i was down in AL 30-31, i did like the place but this time we have 2 nations in the riverlands area, so it might be a bit close.
I did like the spot but it might feel a bit crowded down there, as in, there will be war.
To my advantage in a war, swamps are generally not high value real estate to people, apart for myself.
So, i'd like to know of some nice cozy swamps, preferably close to some rainforests.
