[OOC] Colonial Powers NRP

[Asura]

Is the whole capital and settlements thing our colonies, or our homeland?

[Thunderforce]

I'd love to make a nation for this if there are any spots open, but unfortunately, this new site format is not supported at, like, all by the rather outdated browser onboard my ship. Any chance any one of you could PM me the stuff that's in the spoilers in the initial post?

[gowia]

@Proto105, I am sorry to say right now we a re full however there may be some drop outs at the end today (British time) and so PM me a sheet.

@Dedonus, Sorry yes that must have been a typo since I meant nor. I will change that. Your added traits are fine, they will not affect your rolls, let me know if you add or take away anymore. With the militias they are not in your military roll, since they are almost always standing down. Assume 1,000 to 5,000 in a town or city and 500 in a large village. Anything smaller is not worthwhile. No, serfs describes the position of the workers, slaves come into it when you subjugate natives unless you already have a subject faction in your country. Yes however they would stuff like dragoons etc. And that will be one of the idea's that will be discovered early. People like lancers and knights are available if you want them however it will mean re rolling your military.

@Asura, They are the capital and settlements in your homeland.

@Thunderforce, Unfortunately there are no open spaces however there may be some drop outs, please PM your sheet to me and I will keep you updated. Also I shall send you the first post completely open with no hiders.

Traits:
Starting = 2
Professional Army = -3 <New: I had this trait before you changed the point values.
Ambitious Generals = 1 <New (but I already said I would add it)
Decentralized Army = 0 <New
Small Army = 2
Kings of the Sea = -3
New Age Ship Construction = 0 <New
Strong Industry = -2
Depleted Materials = 3
Total = 0

Removing: I only added these in the first place because I had points to spend and I could not get Professional Army (or at least I thought I could not get it).
Sealegs = -1
Militias = -1

Do any of these changes require a re-roll of stats?

Edit: Also, if I do need a re-roll, I would like to have a few knights (the country above me - black - has knights). They would more be of a general's body guard rather than an actual field force. My nation sheet did say my nation was a mix of the past and the present. :D

[gowia]

Okay I would need to re roll your army so I shall do that...

The City-State of Bennipolis

Army:
4,000 Veterans
12,000 Regulars
3,000 Recruits
500 Knights

[gowia]

The United Peoples of Valentinius

Army:
25,000 Veterans
51,000 Regulars
76,000 Recruits

Navy:
NA

GDP:
54,000,000,000 ($)

Stability: Stable

[Asura]

Hmm... If I forsake the Empire trait, would it change my rolls at all?

[gowia]

Yes, you would probably lose soldiers, GDP, stability and a lot of land.

[Asura]

Well crap, I figured the empire trait would've given me more than that.

[gowia]

Your GDP roll was quite low in respect to what it could have been however you are stable and have the largest most well trained and equipped army out there? You're not doing too bad.

[Asura]

True enough.

[gowia]

Exactly, plus if you change I will have to redo the map and that is just hassle;) Okay...by the end of today i hope to have as many sheets finished as possible. I want to get this going in the next couple of days. Plus if thorgili and alkeni dont post then they will be dropped and Bangle, Proto and Thunderforce will be coming in. Rare may also be dropped.

I updated my sheet on both page one and on the sheet dump thread.

Edit: Also, could my faction call Terheridon "Tereridon". They don't have any concept of an internal "h" sound, except if it is attached to a p, k, or t.

[gowia]

Okay cheers dedonus, they could in their own country however they may be offended when calling them that to their face.

Well, they don't know how to pronounce an internal "h" because they do not have a letter for "H" in there alphabet (or even in their spoken language). They can only pronounce the "H" sound at the beginning of a word (rough breathing marks), after t (theta), k (khi), p (phi), and when r is at the beginning of the word (rhetor). I am not saying they are doing it on purpose. It is just they have no concept of an internal h beyond the exceptions above.

Edit: Also, "r"'s in Greek are rolled, if that makes any difference.

[gowia]

Mmm yeah they could do that then. Yeah go for it.

[gowia]

Admiral Bangle, you and Proto105 have now been accepted. Please get your sheets up post haste.

[Guyvexille]

Can't help but notice that some of the main continent is still white-vacant?Any for late joiners allowed? I can have a nation sheet up within 24 hours?

[gowia]

Currently I am waiting on other nations...to post locations if you PM me a sheet I can put you on the waiting list. However I would prefer to give them priority for first come first serve. However I shall see how it goes as I may accept you depending on other people.

[gowia]

Thnder force has now been accepted.
