If there armor holds out and were the axe's hits and yes losing a heart dose weaken them to a near human state.


Thanks for the info. :)
Eemmtt, I got a question. Would one of your soldiers be able to survive a fly steel battle axe? Also would a lost heart like weaken it to a human like state?

As we're doing some restructuring, I'm thinking of including Army Cards so that players can better detail their armies for the benefit of both the GM and others. Something like this:Army Status CardThe navy card would follow a similar format.i agree with this one.


I don't think we need this, the nation status card is already a pain for me.

Haha, "Black is Back". That's funny to me for some reason. Alright, hold on, let's back up a bit. The RP time has frozen, to reflect the halting of the post flow, so nothing has happened yet. Shall I remove the troop and ships caps, so that we can revert to the original basic form? Trying to do right by the RP, but it looks like I may be breaking it in the process haha. It's 2am over here, so I'm gonna have to go to sleep. Y'all let me know what needs to happen, and I'll make it so. Blackbishop, your nation is now back under your control. Glad to have you back, and I hope whatever it is was you've been upto wasn't an unpleasant affair. Titanic, let's say each black ship marker represents: 40 lights, 20 mediums, 10 heavies. However they're of superior quality, being able to move quicker and sustain more damage than the ones we have access to. Don't worry though, they're beatable.


I'll do 500 light, 250 medium, 125 heavy ships with heavy lumber importing. That 100 light, 50 medium, and 25 heavy ships per region.

GA operations are on hold till next week. I will then get everything organized since everyone is nearly back.

This is why I haven't really touched anything yet. I agree with you, wholeheartedly on many points, but people need a bit of input, and try as I did, I don't think my message regarding army sizes has made it through in a black and white manner, which is perhaps my fault. The only thing I have changed is the food sources and army sizes, which is a simple mechanic and I feel it's both logical and still leaves room for player responsibility. I mean, going by the numbers that I'm seeing, I think only one person is going to have to cut their troop numbers to reflect their available food. For the time being, that is the only change, the other stuff is just theory work that I'm throwing out to you guys for some feedback. I'd rather not have any system at all, but people struggle and I can see why. There's no real framework, just loose advisories and my scorn to go by. Poor old Titan was trying to assemble a force of 1,400 ships. I'm not much of a naval history buff, but the Spanish armada had 130 ships and that number was seen as huge back in the days it existed. So yeah, the troop caps are going to stay. Nation abilities are another idea I am toying with, that give nations certain tactical edges but also drawbacks. It seems well received so far, but It's not an included feature. During your absence, the RP started to wilt, and so I've thrown myself into giving it a bit of a face lift, you see. Aside from the troop and ship caps, which I'm putting in place because I feel as GM they need to be, every other feature gets run by the players first. That's the way I'm going to handle things.


I don't think the RP is going to wilt anymore. We got two new players coming, black is back, and orange is nearly on summer vacation.
You didn't exactly give me a number of how big a navy had to be to attack the north and 130 seemed small so I decided to follow modern navy sizes. How does a navy of 200 light, 100 medium, and 50 heavy ships sound for 5 regions?

Hello!Been a bit of an emotional roller coaster for me this past week, but things should be getting stable for me now. I would like to resume my role as the Orcs of Vanguar and continue my quest to bring the heathen Orcs of Amplesh to their knees, and quell the restlessness of the Clans, as long as Syrian is cool with that.If I may offer my opinion on the rule changes: Don't Do It! The simplicity of this game is what attracted me in the first place, seeing the potential for players to forge their own stories, restricted only by what is reasonable. I say we keep it as is, battles sorted out by the combatants with GM intervention if there is no agreement by way of dice. Any changes you do make, keep them simple. Why bog yourself down and risk losing some of that initial magic that brought me here. I am invested in the story I am creating, and am with you regardless, just a ventured opinion. Whatever you come up with is okay by me.


I kinda have to agree, it would be better to give the thing a vote first. Complication can easily ruin a RP, usually its argument over technology. So far no one has passed a the Gmodding limit and even then you can punish until they learn what is reasonable and what is not.

Enough explosives brings any gate down


Enough angry green monsters to smash your army into a giant pancake. I can arm most of my nation if I have too.

Edit: you said that I was attacking your ally except that I was defending my nation. :/
O.O I was planning on building a massive fleet of like 800 light ships, 400 medium ships, and 200 heavy ships. Also, what would an advanced warship cost, or is a heavy ship a warship?

Edit: The system for building naval and land forces should be given a test run, it might not be good for some or might not just work.
Im going to be inactive for possibly 3-5 days
Still open if anyone new wants to join.
