Anyone have any preferences for land styles, geological formations or landmass sizes for the expansion of the world

Archipelago.

He, maybe you could use three shades of blue. Like blue for shallow areas near the shore, blue for everything else, and dark blue for places that are turbulent. This way we can also see how things like the land bride interact with the ocean.

[Celadon's Penultimate]

 Seconded.

[Marvelous Miscreant]

I could do that, but it seems an awful lot of work to figure out where everything should go.

[Celadon's Penultimate]

 Perhaps just wait for such an upgrade, until such time as you feel like doing it.

[Zaleramancer]

I believe in you!

[Marvelous Miscreant]

No, no....don't say that. You'll guilt me into actually working.

[Celadon's Penultimate]

 But we DO! We DO believe in you, Marvelous! Indeed, we know the depths of your capabilities, and there's not a doubt in our minds! You're more than capable of the task laying before you!

[Marvelous Miscreant]

[Celadon's Penultimate]

 Well, it's true...

[Marvelous Miscreant]

I am not amused. Anyways, what other world building do we need?

[Celadon's Penultimate]

 Not sure. I think maybe some canyons, valleys and whatnot. If those can be done.

And how do you plan to distinguish the forests from normal plains? Just two different shades of green, or will you actually indicate forests by a tree symbol or something? And what about jungles? Will we have them? And if so, will they need to be distinguished from forests?

[Marvelous Miscreant]

Not what I meant. I was referring to anything other than the map.

Also, I already have distinguished between forests and plains and jungles? Have you looked at the updated map at all?

[Celadon's Penultimate]

I don't have anything else planned other than what I've thought about for society and map, no.

And yes, I probably did look at the map, but it must have been months ago. I can look again, some other time.

[Marvelous Miscreant]

...I meant the new map. The one I recently made. The one on the first post of this thread!

[Celadon's Penultimate]

 I think I saw it. I just have to go look again, like I said.

[Zaleramancer]

This could be interesting for those of you looking for skill ideas.

[Celadon's Penultimate]

 Interesting. I think my gods could work out diplomacy 'checks', to gain worshipers. And Jissei can certainly pull off intimidation.

[Zaleramancer]

That's what Presence is for.

It's the ineffable divine aura of a god.

Someone without it couldn't convince someone they're a deity. Well, they could try, but there would be grumbles and rejections deep within..

A high presence god is so obviously divine that there is no possibility for doubt.

[Celadon's Penultimate]

 But...the others, I think we all know. Either they're known, or they kinda have strange implications as far as a deity is concerned.
