[OOC] Age of Steam- Fantasy/Steampunk NRP

<Snipped quote by Zugzwang>Yeah, 19th century tech is weird because it only picks up near the end.
Mid 19th century is basically almost like the Napoleonic era.
There are some distinct differences like gradual spread of breechloaders and the Minié Ball but that's quite a massive kick in tech.
1980s would most likely make more sense, IMO.

@Willy Vereb

Eh the mid sixties is the end of the US civil war. Which means we have some brass, quality cannon that won't hange much for 30 years, and the first generation of breech-loading rifles.

[POOHEAD189]

Is the world map updated?

[Voltus_Ventus]

Hm.. It seems that I have lost a large amount of my over sea territories, oh well. Might just keep expanding on my mainland.

[POOHEAD189]

Is the world map updated?

[Sigma]

@POOHEAD189 Yup, here's the latest version.


And added new territories for your nation @Voltus_Ventus

[POOHEAD189]

Cool. I'll land claim the circled area.

@Voltus_Ventus

Hey, I am not complaining.
Afterall this is a game. Rather than grabbing huge territories it's preferable if everyone gets something along with borders to dispute on.

No one wants to border my orcs. :D

@Theodorable

I didn't expand to your borders because I didn't wish to grab too much land.
Speaking of which you're partially the one to blame here. You ate up a large portion of the continent thus not many could start near you. Especially that now super large nations being the fad.

@Zugzwang

I suppose.
Which means we can use some of the more classic Western era firearms.
Still, I wonder how will we generate electricity. Then again this is steampunk, tech limitations are vague when involving non-standard stuff.

@POOHEAD189 Updated the map.

[POOHEAD189]

Cool. I'll land claim the circled area.

[Willy Vereb]

@POOHEAD189

@POOHEAD189

Why did you post the same thing twice?

[Sigma]

@Willy Vereb It's the site itself, at the moment it's a bit loopy.

[Willy Vereb]

@Sigma

How?
There are 25 minutes between the two. It isn't like a double post or anything similar.

[Voltus_Ventus]

On the previous page.

[Sigma]

@Willy Vereb
Not quite sure of it myself really. Delay maybe? That or he missed his last post and thought it didn't make it though.

[POOHEAD189]

@Willy VerebI don't know why it shows up like that, but I never posted anything 17 minutes ago like it says. I was having trouble posting it. Must have come out twice. There'd be no reason for me to post it twice otherwise.

[Sigma]

So, who wants to border with a land filled with Not!Orcs?(a good description of the Grogar would be....Fish Orcs)

@Willy Vereb

This brings up a good point. How large is this world map? Is it to scale with Earth? (if so, holy crap)

I might suggest that perhaps this map isn't the entire world, but just one continent/region, so as to make these countries seem a bit less fuck-off-big.

@Jotunn Draugr

Imperialism, colonies, new world and such concepts are in full swing here. It wouldn't make much sense to be not the map of the entire world.
At best we can assume that the planet is smaller here.

[LokiLeo789]

The problem I have with Orcs socity, is that to trade with them will be difficult, to reason difficult, to fight with, lightning fast war will be the only way to kill before they unite.

@LokiLeo789

Assuming this is talking about my faction the Torguth Orcs, this is mostly correct. But if they are not united and you attack them, they will most surely unite.
