So I'm beginning to put the design theory into action in Reign of Olympia, and part of this constitutes actually making a playable release. I will be seeking advice from senior PlaneShift developers to implement my ideas and art. At this stage it will not have one of the major poleis as the "city", they will come later.
The basics are this: Athenai has a plague, and Lakonia is removing its soldiers from Attike, to prevent the plague spreading there. They have retreated as far as Megara, which sits at the mouth of the Isthmus, across from Korinthos (Megara was the site of a few major battles of the Pelepponesian War). The main Spartiate army has continued on into the Pelepponessuss, and a contingent has stayed behind to protect Megara. A small force of (plague-free) Athenians is stationed in the nearby town of Plataea. Tensions are high and some skirmishing has been reported.
Megara will be the first city to be added. It will be considered a minor polis in the overall scheme of things. Plataea will be added and will contain the "village" map. A "rural" map will connect the two.
More information pertaining to the first release will be written here.
