I'd say Robben is too smart to pick a corner ;)

Assuming there are party indicators, or some other function in the default client to find another person, we will certainly not take a corner.

Failing that, we will look for some other way to facilitate meeting one another.

But if there is absolutely no way to find another person in the open world until maps become public?

We will take a corner.

Any faction that would want to raid Brodgar with regularity will have mapping tools far quicker than the general public. Even when and if mapping becomes public, it's hard to say if the average Brodgarian migrant could effectively use a public map to navigate to us.

If we don't pick a corner, we are faced with the likely scenario that it's harder for new migrants to find us than raiders.

If our neighbors in the corner want to attack us, we will either accept that as a fact of life... or organize and kill them.

Brodgar has never been a good decision for people that want to live in peace and protection. It has always been a city easy to get started in, filled with people that are fast to be your friends.

I will not put New Brodgar in a position where new players are unable to find it. Values of open access and ease of entry for migrants take precedent over small gains in security.

Good luck with the new Brodgar! Look forward to its progress.

Thank you Epicless. On that note, still taking on interested parties.

For those wondering how many we currently have:
Our Haven 2 skype group is up to 30. Who knows how many of those will turn into inhabitants at launch, but I know we will get more before launch and certainly after.

Tomorrow I will do my best to find the time to throw up a nice city layout in the OP for everyone to check out.

made a thread about creating a robin hood type counter thieves guild for towns such as yourself to employ. Thoughts?
The Brodgarwalder Shwarzhanden im really interested in seeing this take off. Players who are interested in combat but that want to fight the good fight and not necesarilly be part of any town except for alliance could hopefully be interested. Basically Nomadic Ranging/Combat SPecialists helping those in need and heelping to forge new alliances.
