Corsairs's Forest?

[ToAsTY]

Although I know maps are randomly generated can anyone give any idea where Corsair's forest is( is it called something else) my map tells me it's near Fallen London however I have navigated all close to home and still yet to find it.
More annoying since most of my quests/storylines are asking me to discover this area.
Thanks for any replies in advance

Could you post your map so we can see how much you've explored?

Pretty sure that's the place called Gaider's Mourn

^ Exactly. Corsair's Forest is the larger area where Gaider's Mourn is located.

But wtf, I thought it would be generated maps? I just bought it today, being a fan and all, but to me it seems like I have to do the same thing over and over again with every new captain, AND it gets me nowhere.

The map is randomly generated, but the generation operates on the level of regions, or zones. The full map is 6 x 6 regions, with those on the Western and Southern edges always in the same position. Corsair's Forest is one of the regions, and it contains Gaider's Mourn. It tends to be near London, in either the first or second row east of London, and either directly east or a little to the north.

It can't generate truly random new areas because each area needs stories and lore associated with it, and computers aren't very good at generating coherent lore. Yet.

Well, last time when I struggled to find it, it was on the third row, a bit south from center of the map. And it still was "home waters". These direction are awfully off.

Very. The Admiralty Survey Office really doesn't know much about where things are; that's why they need you.

if you got the quest to find strategic information there they shouldv given you a general direction.

it takes a whiiile before you unlock legacies and bonuses that carry to your next captain. Honestly I recommend turning off perma death, using saves, and have fun.

2nd or third row from the left, london being in the 1st row.
