The technology of Crypso is akin to the High Middle Ages, about twelfth or thirteenth century. Gunpowder has not been discovered, but that isn't to say your kingdom can't strive to pursue something similar through alchemy.


OwO

Alright, can I have "discovering of the elixir of life" as one of the admin policy thingys?

I'm assuming that is a potion that gives immortality, which is too OP - but, you can create some healing elixirs that may boost the overall health of your populous, thus giving you a larger supply.

Ah. Gotchya. You can do something like that and stumble upon a highly explosive substance. Protective gear is advised.

Just a couple things yet to go into the map, but it's pretty much finished - just waiting on Tatsua to finish up.

The map will have several layers, including a geographical map, listing terrain and geographical points of interest, a political map, listing cities and capitals, and finally, one that I'm personally excited about, a campaign map, which will detail all current military actions in the game. With a quick glance at the campaign map, players will be able to ascertain whether any wars are currently being fought and by whom, and the location of any deployed armies. This map will likely be a big help for players in forming military strategies during war.

Here's a rough example of what the Campaign Map will look like. With a quick look you can see that the Irodein Empire has invaded the Thangian Theocracy. We can see where the Imperial army formed along the border, and won a battle west of Teccan, where they now proceed to march. Meanwhile, Thangian reinforcements have formed to the east and march to reinforce the capital.

Might be a good time saver to get an overall picture of a war without sifting through the updates.

Finished up the spreadsheet for stats - Please check your stats and ensure that everything is correct or you would like to make changes.

Also, a few of you have chosen unique races for your kingdom, how about a lore post giving us a description? Tapp and I are getting lonely in the IC tab.

Finally got a chance to look over the stats spreadsheet. Everything that would impact numbers is solid, but the Grand Prince of the Serene Republic of Carnelia is "Grand Prince Alteo Regaan Verkun IX" not "Grand Prince Alteo Regaan." I get that its easy to lose in the mess of titles I gave him, but there was a method behind that madness.

@Zendrelax The Cewri seem really cool. Shame they have died out, though it is a small comfort that their blood lives on in the reining humans. Nice IC!

@eemmtt Axium had quite the bloody rise to power. It will be interesting to see Axium continue his struggle to unify his empire should unrest spring once again. Nice IC!

Part of me does want to have them around, but the magic's gone, and they would be faint echoes without their magic. Doesn't mean I'm done with them, though. You can expect more lore posts about them in the future.

A reminder that orders are due this sunday, 15:00 eastern time. Tapp's on vacation, so I will be handling all the orders this round. Write your orders in a hider at the bottom of your IC. For example,



Be sure to include the name of your ruler and kingdom in your orders for easy reference. War orders and plot orders are PM'd to me, again, make sure you include your ruler's name and the name of your kingdom.

Quick question: If one wanted to pursue, say, an expansion of trade with another player, it would naturally require the other player's approval. But should it first be brought up in a private discussion with said player and the conclusion later posted in a Diplomatic order, or should it be announced as part of a diplomatic order, with negotiations then commencing in a private conversation?

I'd apologize for being on vacation but ya know cheap beer and other, ahem, cheap things of interest mean that I cannot say sorry genuinely. For the record I am not a pervert, merely a believer in looking but no touching! Okay, some touching.

Whatever works for you, just make sure you state any specifics of the treaty in IC, and both players must spend a diplomatic order to enact the treaty. For example,
Kingdom of Generica Trade Pact


The Kingdom of Generica proposes a trade pact with the Generic Empire to purchase excess iron, leather, and lumber for gold not exceeding market price. The undersigned agree upon their honour to act accordingly to this agreement, and share in resources and gold for their mutual benefit. Cancelation of the pact may be enforced by any party should they feel their best interest is no longer held by aforementioned trade.

Signed,
[x] King John Doe
[] Empress Jane Doe

It occurs to me that I may be putting a bit too much on my sheet, and not leaving enough for afterwards cool lore editions. Would you rather I posted my sheet now, or post it in a day or so with a lot more hiders full of goodies?

@Tatsua Aiisen I'd rather have it now, you may always add more or give us tasty lore posts later (gluten free please!).
