So itz and your ladz, 'und a 'ouple or so 'angers on can't get rid of. Dat was nice when youz was wandrin round, kumpin gits 'und stealin loot, but now youz had your misshin from da gods! Youz gotta build a city! And youz gotta build it good und propra. You ah, youz don't know what dat means though. You saw da city, but youz don't member it so good.
Youz could do what Greenskins do when dey wanna settle down, 'und claim some other git's place. Maybe a stuntie 'ole they left, or a humie fort dat's pre-trashed. But youz could also find some place new, build it up inna orcy way.
Zugzig sayz you shoud take over some gitz place, 'nd itd be better if youz can kick out whos dere now. 'E also went on 'bout "sites o' powah" 'nd "da greats rivahs", but hez mad so youz shouldz probs just ignore dat.
Hozzy sayz you needz a place with metals orz - iron would beh bestest. 'Nd buney rocks too, or lotta trees to make it. Wood woold be gud for buildin too.
Morgog wantz plenty o' felds for 'is piggies to run, cause dey need gras ta eat, 'und dey get fighty penned up,. Dats a good thing to youz, but 'e knows boars so you'll con-sid-er it.
And youz? Youz just want sum place with gitz near to foight 'nd loot, and a big 'hrone to sit on witha pile of shinies. Dat's tha most impurtunt thing, and youz da Boss so whut you sayz goez!
I'm going to make what is probably a mistake, and allow you to suggest where the settlement will be, instead of giving a series of locations. But I am providing a series of caveats and rules:
Just some examples:
[ ] Stonemine Tower, Badlands/Black Gulf Coast
[ ] Massif Orcal, Bretonnia
[ ] Kingdom of Beasts, Southlands
[ ] a secluded valley, Mountains of Mourne
[ ] The Vaults
Keep in mind once you have a location for your city, you will not be moving.

I'm going to make what is probably a mistake, and allow you to suggest where the settlement will be, instead of giving a series of locations. But I am providing a series of caveats and rules:
- Your forces are small, so no locations that are already occupied by major forces.
- The closer you are to large settlements the sooner you'll have to deal with them
- If a location already has occupiers, you'd need to fight them.
- Places we don't have a lot of canon for (Ind, Khuresh, basically anywhere east of the Mountains of Mourn)
- Places you're unlikely to last (Chaos Wastes, Ulthuan, Cathay)
- Places you can't reach easily/at all (Albion)
- Can be vague, as long as I can plot it on a map
Just some examples:
[ ] Stonemine Tower, Badlands/Black Gulf Coast
[ ] Massif Orcal, Bretonnia
[ ] Kingdom of Beasts, Southlands
[ ] a secluded valley, Mountains of Mourne
[ ] The Vaults

[ ] Mousillon, Cursed Dukedom of Bretonnia
The land of Mousillon was once the fairest of all the Dukedoms, but time and tragedy has sapped it's grace, and the rot of undeath has laid its mark heavily. Currently there isn't even a recognised Duke, with the capital of Mousillon City ruled by shadowy creatures. It's populace are inbred mutants, living short and miserable lives. In death they found little rest, raised by passing necromancers or even random dark magic.
Pros
Who Wants To Live Here? - Most of the "better" parts of Mousillon was claimed by it's neighbor Lyonesse, and the rest left to rot. Few have interest in it now. (Less likely to gain attention from outside of Mousillon)
Sunken Treasure - Much has sunk beneath the dirty waters of Mousillon, trapped forever in it's murky embrace. If you can find a way to pull them from the depths, they will be yours. (Can search/dredge for useful things e.g. scrap, treasure)
Terrified Populace - So many petty tyrants and dark lords have claimed the accursed Dukedom as their own, the human populace have become used to living under oppression's boot (Actions against locals less likely to cause negative responses)
Cons
Marshland - Mousillon is a land of bogs and marshes. Dry, high ground is rare and sometimes shifts. The swamps themselves are often called haunted - which is completely true, by a number of monstrosities. (Lots of wet land, often occupied)
Restless Dead - Undead of all kinds lurk within Mousillon - and not all hide away. Some hold land, lording over the living and dead both. Some still hold to their honor, as twisted as it might have become. (Undead and Necomancers everywhere)
Watched Borders - Built in response to the Red Pox, the Cordon Sanitaire has been built up over centuries. It is a loose ring of fortress and watch towers, manned by a few unlucky troops and naive knights, that stop anyone from trying to leave Mousillon (Any parties leaving Mousillon are likely to be spotted)
[ ] The Kingdom of Beasts, Southlands Jungle
The jungles of the Southlands are vast, primal places where the law of the beast rule supreme. Tribes of men, beastmen and greenskins survive under it's canopies, while the coasts are home to rough colonies and hidden coves. The Kingdom of Beasts is well known for it's monstrous denizens of all types and sizes, ranging from the simple hippopotamus to rare creatures like the savage Carnosaur.
Pros
Wood A Plenty - Timber is in abundance here, as well as other floral bounties. You just have to avoid the poisons ones (Large amounts of Wood, and other plant-based resources)
Savage Land - Greenskins of the Savage variety are common within the Southlands, with tribes regularly migrating in search of a foight. (Tribal greenskins are easy to find, for better recruitment and fighting)
Hidden Wonders - The Southlands are a place of mystery, with many lost ruins and hidden temples containing wondrous treasures. You'll need to avoid the deadly trap and unsleeping guardians, but tomb raiding is very profitable. (Chances to go dungeon crawling)
Cons
This Jungle Hates You - Flies the size of your eye, snakes that could swallow a grot hole, rampaging dinosaurs that crush everything in their path - and that's just the start. (Lots of danger and chances to die)
Aint No Map - Navigating the jungle is difficult even for those that spend their lives there. The undergrowth can change overnight, damaged by passing beasts or fed by heavy rainfalls. (Traveling is difficult, even over short distances)
Languid Lizards - The Lizardmen of the Southlands might be split off from the majority of their race and the guidance of their eldest, but they are still mighty. More importantly, their copy of the Great Plan is more complete (Possibility of attracting Lizardmen attention)
This is the last "character" creation vote, after which... you'll do another vote to choose a specific location. But, then it'll be turn 1 time!
