Looks like we have our 6 test subjects... may the games begin!

[Romero]

@Murtox Khazaria all adds up, even if it is a little min-maxy. Just specify which province your capital is in, and be aware that you are going to suffer from basically having no navy.

@SonOfALich Grimhout looks good, consider yourself accepted. But Murtox just pipped you to yellow, so let me know what colour you want instead. I'll use a light blue as a placeholder.

We do indeed now have six. If anyone is on the cusp of making the leap and applying, I'm not slamming the door shut just yet, but be aware that I will be starting to fill the rest of the map, and once that is done sometime tomorrow, I'll be pushing on to the next stage.

[Heyitsjiwon]

The border gore in western and central europe is going to be pretty rough. A lot of 1 province thick borders.

[SonOfALich]

Well most of us seemed to adopt a 'no-touching' policy.

@Romero Are there going to be 'NPC' major powers, or are we going to be the big dogs and the NPC's are going to be more minor?

[Abefroeman]

@Romero, sir, when filling out the rest of the map, are you referring to npc nations?

[Romero]

@Heyitsjiwon@SonOfALich Interestingly, your two points are connected. While there will be a handful of other 'major' NPC powers, the majority will be smaller 'minor' powers, so not-Europe is going to become even more of a rainbow as there's going to be some smaller 1-2 province countries, particularly in western/central Europe.

@Abefroeman I do indeed mean NPC nations. I'll be creating them with a nation sheet similar to the one that you have all used, albeit with fewer points in general.

[Murtox]

@Murtox Khazaria all adds up, even if it is a little min-maxy. Just specify which province your capital is in, and be aware that you are going to suffer from basically having no navy.

@Romero

I may miss out on the colonization game but its Khazaria it only has (easily interrupted) sea access through the straits. But yeah, in the Character tab I have updated the nation with its capital. Also, this will be a first for me since I am not playing an entirely European nation, I hope it doesn't mess too much with the game mechanics. But I couldn't stop myself from doing something out of the ordinary :v

[Heyitsjiwon]

So, will this Khazaria be a Jewish (or equivalent) state as well?

[LordZell]

@Murtoxso are you the boy horse king?

[Romero]

@Murtox So long as you're aware of the limitations, I'm happy if you are.

Last 12 hours or so for any newcomers to pipe up, then I'll set up a discord and start getting into Phase 2.

[Murtox]

@Murtoxso are you the boy horse king?

@LordZell

Yes

So, will this Khazaria be a Jewish (or equivalent) state as well?

@Heyitsjiwon

Yep, pretty much.

[LordZell]

@Romeroso excited!

[Redback]

I'm thinking of playing with a Russian nation, it would be an interesting roleplay.

[urukhai]

All aboard the hype train!!!

[Romero]

@Redback The bulk of Russia is intentionally cut off from the map, but if you're quick then I'm sure you can fill some of the space in Eastern Europe.

[Romero]

Official warning to any and all lurker. 6pm GMT (so in around 3 hours) is acting as a deadline. If you don't get a Nation Sheet in by then, unfortunately you'll have to wait till the RP is established and I can think about you taking over an NPC nation.

[Romero]

Without further ado, here are the available characters that you can wed with your siblings/children. The list details the nation of origin, the relation that each character has to the current ruler, and their age. As a note, this list contains no current rulers or heirs, but this is a good opportunity to start building diplomatic connections. I'm working on somewhat of a first come first serve basis, but bear in mind that I still need to approve each claim. So even if you claim one, you don't necessarily have it. Happy hunting. And now I will stop talking about fictional characters like they are objects!
