Really ought to be a way to control inactive legions until the crisis is over and they can be disbanded.

Yeah, we've got to do something with that element of the RP.

Oh crap, I accidentally labelled my first hider incorrectly. The first hider was supposed to be for Bryd's character, not Boerd's (although the 3rd letter is correctly labeled). I was talking about the correct legion, but I had the wrong legate. >.<

Sorry about that.

Happy halloween everyone! Sorry if late/early, but y'know-- time zones xD

Yes, this is becoming a bit of a problem isn't it? The RP's structural integrity wasn't designed for constant semi-absentees and full blown AWOLers on a frequent basis.

The problem is, that although change is needed in the current set up, I'm not sure which way to go with it. At the moment, the easiest way I could see it being resolved is that the appointed commander of a multi-legion force would be given semi-GM authority over the legions of players who are slowing down their side of things.

And as for the legions that have been totally inactive, well, to the Hall of Shame with them I say.

If it gets to a point where realistically, we need more soldiers, then I'll consider either a recruitment drive, or adding additional legions to existing legates.

And to you my friend. I almost converted this RP into a zombie-Roman apocalypse in celebration, but then my hangover wore off and I refrained.

[AmongHeroes]

I suggest we recruit some new players, as well as bolster the number of legions active players control. These added legions don't even have to be operating in the same theater, and can perhaps add some more depth to our story.

At any rate, I fear that if we don't get moving soon, we'll only lose more.

For the moment, just need a solution for Jiwon

Though I'm doubting it matters at this point, I'm going to go ahead and formally withdraw from this RP. It was a great concept, and had a lot of potential. Great stuff, LancerDancer. I'd be happy to write with you again.

Thankyou. I'm sorry this ground to a halt, the RP had some crucial flaws that I probably should have addressed, but meh. Should Legions: Fall of Rome ever reach the light of day, I'll fire you over a message.

As for the rest of you (that still remain), I appreciate your loyalty, and apologise for any disappointment, but I'm closing this down. The stop/start nature of things has ruined the mood somewhat, and all I want to do is go away and build a bigger, better RP of a similar format. Thanks for joining me on this experiment, it has been fun, and has provided me with the vital experience I'll need in forging any nation-related RP in the future.

I apologise if this seems like a sloppy way to end things, but I'm confident that a short and sweet notice of closure is the best way to proceed.

See you all around.
