[quote=Honored Brother] Sounds interesting although I have a few questions. hope you don't mind. *How much of "the new world" would have been discovered by the start of the rp? I'm guessing good old Columbus already discovered "India"(the Americas) but how about Africa and Asia?*Will the rp's colonies be in historic locations such as cuba and the east coast of America or do we have freedom to choose where we start?*Are the Europeans powers really the only ones who could send their envoys to the new world or can other powers of the time join in too? I know that the muslim states such as the turks would have no interest in sailing for the new world but I guess it would be fun to see them build up in the Americas.That's all and good luck with the rp. [/quote] Questions are fine, it's how I can improve the RP :) This is going to be a purely Americas campaign, Africa and Asia have been discovered however they play very little part in this. It will not be a historically accurate start and people will have a choice but the choice is limited, I want you all close enough together so that maybe a few sparks fly. But not so close that there is no breathing room. To begin with it will be the historic and main European powers however if interest is high I may include the Ottomans and others. [quote=Pepperm1nts] This sounds interesting, but it's hard to judge without knowing what the mechanics are going to be like. [/quote] I understand, if interest gets high I will post the dynamics here to gauge people's reactions and then start the OOC/IC :)
