@bloonewb I would be willing to,we are neighbors after all.

Okay, the first coop is officially underway.

@TheSovereignGrave Sure, though I am just now actually fleshing out my families. Also the Doge himself is actually a bedridden old man, so it won't be him that attends. But I wanted to ask you myself once I at least have a few more names and short descriptions. XD

@Gendarme as Turchina is not a monarchy proper (Even though those greedy Marcellai actually are hording the Doge office for themselves) I will make sure to have suitable sons in one or two of Turchinas noble houses.

And, best of all, it'd royally piss off King Alois. It's no secret that The Grand Duke dislikes him for the way the King treats his daughter and the King, well, he can be kind of paranoid sometimes. So he's not going to like his most powerful vassal (who hates him) creating marriage ties with a foreign realm.

@TheSovereignGrave

Most powerful Vassal, who then would finally have access to some more modern military units via his wife. I mean the main reason for Turchina for this marriage would be to open your nice River to ships and trade, but none the less there might be 'disnonourable' rifle battalions in the deal.

Alrighty then, works for me. I can always give the Grand Duke a younger son who has yet to take a wife.

@TheSovereignGrave

Oh that will be awesome, imagine grandly decorated Ships, Honour Guard in golden Armour. Banners everwhere, a traditional Turchinan Masked Carnival and so on...

@TheSovereignGrave I'd rather see it played out so it could happen over the course of the game. XD. I still need to write out characters for my Houses though. Well at least I have names for the Families and concepts outlined for them, and hey they have own coats of arms now, which is always nice.

@TheMoatedGrange If I am not mistaken there is still quite some room. Right south of Turchina and its enclaves and East of Vohemia there is quite some room. Sevanne is out too I think, so that Space is open again. Not an official answer though.
Vohemia is a bit of the very devout backwater like place and Tuchina is a trading city based on the italian renaissance, with a mighty armada and a bit of influenced by the east.

Eh, I'm not really a big fan of it @Hygswitch. It's kind of a major thing to stick in right before the RP begins, and I already have minor houses in my nation who aren't exactly going to see eye-to-eye with the King on, well, many things. Of course, other people are more than welcome to interact with them and support their ventures against the establish order of my kingdom, but I'd rather be in control of the characters since I created them. Of course, if other people want to go with your idea I see no reason to stop them.

Oh, and @Dagoth, Piratepad is a site made pretty much for collaborative writing. A relatively good way to make a collaborative post if one doesn't feel like just doing it via PM.

@TheSovereignGrave

It was just an Idea, maybe I am just too hungry for Intrigue now that GoT is through for this season. XD

[IC/OOC] God and Country - A low-fantasy renaissance NRP of religion and discovery

@Hygswitch I have no idea what you mean by this (also, what is Piratepad?) and am unsure how I feel about it. I guess i'd need more information, and a general consensus before I weigh in. That said, I already wrote some minor houses into my post already, so featuring them is no extra work on my part.

@Dagoth

Most of us will most likely have worked out minor families and houses, so it will not be a lot of extra work. Piratepad is a nice writing platform we use for coops at another RP I am in. It's quite convenient and no fuss, basically you get a joined place for writing stuff, where it is marked in colour who wrote what. Conveniently it comes with build in chat. (Here an example sheet with not much in it: piratepad.net/6FIZ2v6SjP (Apart of a discussion with a pal of mine aparently XD)
