-*Holiday Surprises, which are completely late at this point, but should be phenomenal once it is released. The scope of these projects is unprecedented, and should make things a lot more interesting. Eshara and Gavadel have already sampled some of the work, and teasers are coming out as I get more of the work done. At 100%, I am doing the final proofing and playtesting. Undetermined release date due to numerous last minute things that keep popping up. Finalizing everything, checking spelling, and making it presentable for review.

-I'll be working in waves of projects. First wave is to get the main regions all standardized and on mappings. The second wave is to start filling in all of the space that I opened up by making the mappings, which includes rebuilding outdated areas and creating new areas. Third wave is to add in the guilds and associations to the new areas on the map. Fourth wave is to intrinsically link my projects to the rest of the world. These waves repeat and overlap. Avalon's map is out, so while I am finishing up the [[Almeria]] map (first wave), I am filling in [[Avalon]] and [[Gardagh]], which is the second wave. Once Almeria's map is released, I can begin working on the first wave map for [[Akalahai]], [[Tenochlan]], and [[Esartur]], the second wave areas for Almeria, and the third wave guilds and associations for Avalon and Gardagh. The Northlands area was intentionally left off of the working list because it will be redeveloped into the Wintercrest region with the current standardization.+*Regions
