If there is anyone who still does here, then here is something I typed up during the summer. It is a list of all major areas in the land of Rokugan. I catagorized them for easy reference into sectors and sub sectors. The reason I did this is so I can easily memorize them all without having to re read the books every time I have to look something up. By assigning a code to each area I can easily scan each section and reduce the amount of material I have to read when searching for a particular thing. LIST OF SECTORS IN ROKUGAN. The space pirate operations map for the continent Rokugan is divided into 15 sectors, each one into sub sectors of varying numbers. SECTOR 1: THE CRAB Current leader: Hida Kruoda Subsectors: 1-A: Hida 1-B: Hiruma 1-C: Kaiu 1-D: Kuni 1-E: Toritaka 1-F: Yasuki ________________________ SECTOR 2: THE CRANE Current leader: Doji Kurohito Subsectors: 2-A: Asahina 2-B: Daidoji 2-C: Doji 2-D: Kakita 2-E: Yasuki ________________________ SECTOR 3: THE DRAGON Current leader: Togashin Hoshi Subsectors: 3-A: Hitomi 3-B: Kitsuki 3-C: Mirumoto 3-D: Tamori 3-E: Togashi ________________________ SECTOR 4: THE LION Current leader: Matsu Nimuro Sebsectors: 4-A: Akodo 4-B: Ikoma 4-C: Kitsu 4-D: Mastu ________________________ SECTOR 5: THE MANTIS Current leader: Yoritomo Kitao Subsectors: 5-A: Moshi 5-B: Tsuruchi 5-C: Yoritomo ________________________ SECTOR 6: THE PHOENIX Current leader: Shiba Tsukune 6-A: Agasha 6-B: Asako 6-C: Isawa Special leadership by Council of Elemental Masters. 6-D: Shiba ________________________ SECTOR 7: THE SCORPION Current leader: Bayushi Yojiro Subsectors: 7-A: Bayushi 7-B: Shosuro 7-C: Soshi 7-D: Yogo ________________________ SECTOR 8: THE UNICORN Current leader: Moto Gaheris Subsectors: 8-A: Horiuchi 8-B: Ide 8-C: Iuchi 8-D: Moto 8-E: Shinjo 8-F: Utaku ________________________ MAIN SECTOR: THE IMPERIAL FAMILIES these are part of the operations command (OP-COM) the Rokugan Operations Command Center is divided into the 3 sectors each one under the castles of each imperial family.

I didn't know the IP switched hands.  I'll have to check out Alderac Entertainment, and see what they've done with it.

They may have a new, sectioned map of Rokugan at L5R's website, in case that helps further.

NO!  They can't have it... it's ours!  Do you ever get the feeling the original poster is really computer software programmed to generate something that looks like RPG Jargon written in English, but is really random phrases pulled out of databases of things that have little to do with each other to produce results that actually aren't, strictly speaking, RPG Jargon or English?  Essentially, the RPG equivalent of Lorem Ipsum text? With that in mind, it might have generated an Oriental Adventures/Spelljammer crossover that sounds more interesting to me than either setting alone, so maybe it's good for some non-linear brainstorming, at least....

Nevertheless, even though I don't always follow what you are trying to describe, I sincerely mean it when I say I wouldn't want to lose you to another website, that you are one of the most consistently entertaining posters on these forums, and that you do inspire some good ideas by way of non-linear brainstorming.  Please, keep doing what you are doing
