[Bluetommy]

@Vhagar Oh that hurts, so sorry to hear that.

[agentmanatee]

Oh shit... yea... I have experienced this rage mulyself. I type most of my posts here and hitting page refresh is my ultimate sin... obviously we aren't going to expect a post now. That uh... sucks real bad man

[Major Ursa]

@VhagarOh jaysus. Google Chrome has been noping me for the past few days, so I've been working on Word for most posts.

[Vhagar]

Whatever, I remember roughly what I wrote sp I'll sort it in the morning. Well... it is the morning, so later in the morning.

Nope. I am in the process of writing, I got stumped on Talron's letters to Daenys and Jullon Tully, so I have to go back for that. I only found out when I woke up this morning that I was good to write the entire Bear Island section in my post so I've only just started it. Sorry for the delay, but I am getting there.

@Dawnscroll how do you want me to handle the small ranger Garrison? I was just going to have them captured and killed after causing a bit of trouble for Valorion's men but of there's anything specific you want done then let me know.

Also, I have a problem with the Stark navy. The Westerlands have, historically, had one of the largest and most powerful fleets in Westeros, along with the Iron Islands, the Royal Fleet, and the fleet of House Redwyne. As was stated in a previous post, the Westerlands have a vast amount of wealth available to them, and will no doubt have families of shipwrights raised over generations, and massive amounts of natural resources, and as such they were designated a fleet size of 100. On the other hand, the North has no such vast wealth, has had no navy for hundreds of years before ASOIAF and so has none of the naval history of the Westerlands, would have very few shipwrights if any at all, and doesn't have an particular abundance of natural resources with the exception of Ironwood. So, how the North has managed to amass a fleet of 100 ships, the same size as the Westerlands, I have no idea. It's not that I'm trying to be horrible, I'm just trying to keep it real. It just doesn't make sense.

@Vhagar

Small Ranger Garrison will likely act as the VietCong on the Island. They'll defend it, but their job is to cause hassle and make your invasion worth not as much. Likely 5-10 mdn. Kill some, let a few slip away.

North, when you look at it, has a tremendous amount of natural resources. Especially in wood. They had 0 naval presence on the Western side of the contimemt, but have a considerably fair one on the eastern side. Whiteharbor was a massive shipwrights community, and even then House Mandel was the primary naval family.

Robb had even commissioned the building of new galleys and long ahoys for the war effort. In the three hundred years since then, the majority of the wolf's wood was cut down for production and rebuilding, and Torren Square became a center for Western shipbuilding, giving them a presence on both sides of the continent.

Also, House Lannister had bankrupted itself in its entirety from the War of the Five Kings l. Robb was attacking by land, not sea so what sense was there having a big navy?

Also, I am so fucking sorry to hear about that post. That sucks dude. :/ Your muse will be back though...

[agentmanatee]

Well I'm working on my own post, but as I said it's taking a bit... I'm lazy XD, and this is my day off... it may be up tonight or tomorrow so... you know

[Vhagar]

Seems the wiki contradicts itself then. This page says the North has had no navy for afew hundred years.

[Dawnscroll]

It... doesn't actually. At least not what I read from that link.

"Davos Seaworth spots twenty-three war galleys at White Harbor,[10] while Wyman Manderly claims to have as many more hidden up the White Knife.[11]"

That'd be 46, which is close to 50.

[Major Ursa]

...still have no clue what the Vale would have.

[Major Ursa]

[FourtyTwo]

It's too small :P

[agentmanatee]

So I'm waiting on @Vhagaror @Dawnscroll to post

I know Vhagar is working on his post after losing it

Dawn are you still working on one or are you waiting for V?

[Major Ursa]

@kingkonrad

[Dawnscroll]

I mean, I have something written up but it doesn't add or forward the story in any real way. Introduces Evan as his reaction to being told he's about the Marry.

I need Vhager to move the epelot in the north. But a few more hours of work I guess I can something with the first part.

[agentmanatee]

I understand, not trying to force a fluff post, just asking...

I may also be dying to see the reactionXD I'm an impatient and rather immature person in general! So, Pls, don't post if you'd rather wait just cause I wanna see a particular moment

[Bluetommy]

Be patient @agentmanatee, @Vhagar should have something up in a bit.

[Major Ursa]

In the meantime, coat of arms for certain houses...House Borrell has a motherfuckin' spider crab on theirs.

[agentmanatee]

Hey just out of curiosity... how expensive is wildfire to buy from the alchemists?

[Bluetommy]

@agentmanatee In the ASOIAF Crusader Kings Two mod, a small amount (would burn a carriage) costs 50 dragons.

[FourtyTwo]

I'm playing it right now.

As of which, House Boggs, from North Crakelaw, have gone from being just some minor Lords to being the Lords of Craklaw Point, to...well, let's say shit got complicated, there were merchant republic Kings (yes, somehow), and basically, following a short but bloody capture, I now have a Boggsman on the Iron Throne, which will soon be my playable character. From some backwater scum to the top of the food chain, and suprisingly, only the Iron Islanders have a problem with that.
