    Well a couple of questions then:

    You've asked for a build but what system are you planning (brings up issues of classes available, technology level, magic level, what magic IS etc)

    How are you scattering the various races (everyone everywhere? the main book races everywhere and the others in a per continent basis?)

    If these lands are continents (even at the size of greater India or Australia) could and probably should have a bunch of different nations no? if so then the 4 cities 3 sties may well not work well when it is repeated 20 times....

    Also what kind of themes and stories are you trying to promote?


    I find this an interesting idea at least-both in terms of approach and possible outcomes. . .

    also as hopping between the 4 super, 5 continents, etc seems as it needs some sort of starting agreement. . . how easy/hard is it? Does it need some sort of greater teleport spell (with say broken Isles blocking it)
    those would also be HUGE oceans by the way with very long boat trips. . . It matters for the subdevelopers in terms of how many connections they have-how much trade, how do tech or magical traditions in one continent effect the others etc. Just if one region says it produces a major export the others have to be careful about overlapping. . . if one goes for a region that says magic is strictly controlled and few people ever see it and another talks of how their airships regularly trade with the other powers would be a logical conflict...
