8w_gremlin Posted March 16 Clone Share Posted March 16 That's quite a leap of tech, isn't it? I was thinking more on the lines of ballista to cannons, crossbows to muskets, the possible introduction of steam engines, paddlewheels, possibly screw propellers, and maybe balloons and airships at a push...

Delorphin Posted March 17 Clone Share Posted March 17 On that note, what level of technology are we starting from? Saying medieval could mean anything up to basic guns and plate armour and also ignores certain tech like aqueducts. At the same time, you have the Islamic contemporaries having seemingly anachronistic technology like a person called al-Jazari making automata.

Primeval Stasis Posted March 17 Author Clone Share Posted March 17 I really appreciate the questions and help seeing where I should have filled in some more info. I just put up a new pinned post that should be a little more comprehensive about my thoughts for the game: https://www.myth-weavers.com/index.php?/topic/17477-expectations/ The thread isn't locked, so feel free to ask any questions that arise from it over there.

hakootoko Posted March 17 Clone Share Posted March 17 My app is aiming for something vaguely Central Asian / Sasanian Persian, if that wasn't apparent already. So pre-Islamic settled people with horse nomads on their frontier. Name xDiceName xDiceResult xDiceString xDiceRolls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Primeval Stasis Posted March 17 Author Clone Share Posted March 17 Nice, that's a cool theme! I had a pretty long week so I haven't had much of a chance to look at apps yet, just responding in the OOC chat here.

Rumguzzle Posted March 17 Clone Share Posted March 17 (edited) @Primeval Stasis Question on stats. I see there are 25 to apply to the realm and 15 pints for Personal. I do not see a point total to be used for the Settlements. Is it 25 points per category or something else?

Primeval Stasis Posted March 17 Author Clone Share Posted March 17 @Rumguzzle Thanks for asking. I added a word to the template to hopefully clear that up. | "Assign your realm stat points to each settlement until all of your realm stat points have been assigned." So, using your realm stats as an example: Martial: 2 Commercial: 4 Agricultural: 4 Industrial: 3 Artistic: 1 You have 3 industrial points to distribute between your settlements. You could give each settlement 1 point, load all 3 into a single settlement, or do 2 & 1.

Rumguzzle Posted March 18 Clone Share Posted March 18 Ok that makes it clear, thanks for the update. Should have mine complete for review later tonight. Name xDiceName xDiceResult xDiceString xDiceRolls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Choomie Posted March 18 Clone Share Posted March 18 I have the bones of my app up but I'm running into editor issues. I'll get this fixed soon. Name xDiceName xDiceResult xDiceString xDiceRolls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hakootoko Posted March 18 Clone Share Posted March 18 Cleary not all this geography will fit together. We'll have to adjust some compass directions after player selection. Name xDiceName xDiceResult xDiceString xDiceRolls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChaosCircle Posted March 18 Clone Share Posted March 18 Good luck with the game, I'll be lurking. Partially its I'm behind on a game I already promised people, partially its just I don't want to drop with how busy I am lol.

Rumguzzle Posted March 18 Clone Share Posted March 18 @Primeval Stasis My app is ready for review. I've gone deep on a few topics, mostly related to the structure and history of the realm. I want to keep the core concept of the dynamic of being a part of the empire but on the edge of resistance due to their historic culture but am open to adjusting and changing most things to fit the campaign if needed.

Yeah I figured we'll have some ironing out to do once players are picked. 4 hours ago, ChaosCircle said: Good luck with the game, I'll be lurking.

I totally understand and appreciate the realistic expectations for your schedule. I'll probably keep the members section just for those who are actively in the game, but it looks like you followed it as well so you'll still be able to see how things are going. 4 hours ago, Rumguzzle said: @Primeval Stasis My app is ready for review.

Sweet, thanks! My goal is to look over the already completed apps today, and maybe finish up my own nation.

Avaday Daydream Posted March 19 Clone Share Posted March 19 Oooh, tentatively curious... Something I'm wondering; are low-fantasy/sci-fi-ish races allowed, or is it an all-human world? I suspect fire-breathing, giant-flying dragons are out of the question, but what about more mundane dwarves and elves? Or neanderthals or monkey-folk, or sapient cetaceans, or even evolved-dinosaurs?

Neopopulas Posted March 19 Clone Share Posted March 19 I'm torn between going into exhausting detail and not because i don't want to lore dump and then not get picked, but its super tempting. I also assume anyone picked will probably have to make some tweaks on location and area as well as things like, titles and stuff. If everyone is a region of a kingdom then being a prince is tough, but if there are tons of dukes and grand dukes and barons and all that. If its a large empire than kings and princes makes more sense. Name xDiceName xDiceResult xDiceString xDiceRolls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
