Actual Map Size

The main world map on Sanctuary is 6144 tiles by 4096 tiles. Assuming each tile is 3 feet, the actual map is 3.5 miles across by 2.3 miles tall. This is obviously not large enough to literally sustain the type of population we need for the story line conflict.

Luckily, gamers are use to having a smaller actual map then their impression of the fictional world, and the largest of the UO world maps is rather large, so lets continue on.

Population Centers

There are 5 major population centers with a large castle, one in each kingdom. There are 20 more strongholds (aka fiefdoms, holdfasts, fortified manor house or forts) on the map, approximately 4 per kingdom. These strongholds are the land based locations for the rest of the noble houses. Then there is another few dozen of small villages scattered around the world.

The game will begin with the 5 capitals, and we will be adding strongholds and small villages. A strong hold will be one good size player home with 2-3 small outer buildings, such as a stable or mill. A village will be comprised of 3-4 small cottages around a central well/town center.
