    Just wondering..

    Are chapters 3 to 9 still undergoing revision or is their current version the only one we'll ever have? (simply curious)

    I'd like to know that myself, as well as if the Atlas is still being worked on.

    Are things stuck in their current form, or are there advancements being made to look forward to and make things more complete.

    The Birthright community is looking forward to a change in the format that BR material is presented in. Its a little less authorotative, because there is less "official" content, but much, much more content because its more colaborative.

    Its possible that this more open, colaborative approach will actually increase the "official content" because individual sections could still be sanctioned, and included in a pdf.

    Its also possible that with more colaborators, the BR community will have to be a little bit selective about individual players and DM's take into their own games.

    Instead of trying to make everything official and sanctioned, the emphasis has been more on getting high quality, usable content into a wiki style organization.

    We're hoping that at the very least the official pdf version of the BRCS will continue to provide a sanctioned campaign setting for Birthright, and at best the wiki approach will substantially propell and improve the pdf version.

    It sounds like you're saying this project has been mostly dumped and any real hope of a completely finished and official version of the BRCS and an Atlas.

    Instead we will have a chaotic fusion of constantly changing ideas and interpretations...

    I hope this is not the case...

    The team working on the pdf and the atlas are presumably still doing so. If the wiki produces nothing useful, they will plod along as they have been doing.

    If the other project produces useful material, they can sanction it and put in the an official BRCS document.

    People producing content is people producing content. The difference is the speed at which something workable can be produced.

    It may be that the wiki process will have to be tweaked and adjusted as it goes along, but as the original inquiry indicates, the official sanctioned version was taking forever.

    I wonder why it's taking so long? However, yes, something that progresses faster, even if temporary would be a good thing.

    Is there anything you would like to see that you feel is missing?

    I'm just waiting for maps of the world that are easy to use for provinces and the like rather than just general maps.

    Though that might be better done as some kind of program.

    Also, I'm waiting for more goblinoid information (but that's just a personal fanboyish thing as I love goblinoids)

    [QUOTE=Wolfboy]I'm just waiting for maps of the world that are easy to use for provinces and the like rather than just general maps.




    So, I made new huge map of Cerilia and am detailing the provinces, and it was ment to be done allready, but we all do this besides our work, studies... and I think that answers your other question as well: Why is all that taking so long?
    I offered my self to do the whole world in the same manner, but no one replied. Lack of comunication is realy a problem and the fact that people who are doing sometimes even the same stuff don't do it together.

    Now, someone said there was a BirthRight wiki. The only wiki I found was the Wikipedia. Is that what everyone is talking about or is there a wiki specifically devoted to BirthRight?

    the birthright wiki is still a work in progress and hasn't been released yet. That's a fairly familiar refrain I suppose on br.net but I have high hopes of the wiki seeing daylight soonish.

    The wiki will obviously grow as different people add articles, but at present Arjan et al are whipping the coding and legalities into place which sadly are necessary before a public release...

    btw: Kay is great at maps, pictures, etc.
