Oh, I incorporated pay in the soldier's overall upkeep. For example, the Huskarl's armament upkeep adds up to 4 (2 for his axe, two for his mail) but I wrote 5 to account for pay. Also, they are indeed raised.

So you did. I was living in a past life, where javelins cost 4 upkeep, and Greataxes 3.

I'm going to get some coffee. Damn night shifts. And in case it got lost, you are indeed accepted.

Also, those names! Let me see. . . without wikipedia, Jorvik is the Norse name for the county of York, Dyflinn is Dublin, Sudreyar is the petty kingdom that used to rule over parts of Ireland and Scotland. . . the others escape me.

Lol, no sweat bro. I know how taxing a number base system can be to run. Looking at the accepted list, we get to name our kingdoms. Kewl! Jarldom of Jorvik, if possible.

Indeed, I was going to keep with the British theme. Orkneyjar is Orkney, Northreyjar are the Outer Hebrides.

The backstory here is brilliant, and I'd love to get involved. Is there still room for another player to join?

Here it is! The points should add up to 59, but I used one spare to add 12 more family points. Let me know if this is alright, or if I need to change anything :)

You do sound like a man learned in NRPs. Tell me, have you played in one of Kadeuax's RPs? We may have met without knowing. And that is totally possible.

There is a British theme, but players a free to fuck around with it. I know one guy who said he wanted to make a middle-eastern themed land, as in a bunch of memluks came to Lundland and just made everyone in their slice of land a slave. I think his name was Hazmat, but he hasn't posted here in the OOC yet.

@ Magnificent: There is! No limits yet, since I expect people's schedules and inclinations will change with time.

@ Fortunes: Reading now.

Wow, you're fast! Just a heads up, I edited the crops on the individual fiefdom - found that it was innacurate when I posted since I didn't take the city dwellers into account. Should be fixed now.

I am quite experienced, yes. I have not played a Kad RP though. Me and Andi really, really, really, did not get along.

I'm already online, I've made sheets of my own, and read 8 other players' sheets now, so it's starting to come easier.

Your army is off. The upkeep of the legionaries would be 1 for their pay, and 5 for their upkeep, making the total 6. 6x500= 3,000. Pay needs to factored in to the bowmen as well. Also, upkeep is paid seasonally, not annually.

Your fief populations are off as well. You need to subtract the people in your towns from the fief they're located in.

But with that crop fix, all other things are good. Just fix those things, and you're added to the accepted list.

Is Andi another of Kad's names? I don't go for woman's gossip, but while Kad had grand ideas, he implemented them very poorly. Hell, his last RP several months ago is what got me thinking about making my own NRP.

Flooby Badoop said It's easy to imagine standing outside Giant's Bane, watching over your cattle in the mid-day, all the hard work of the day completed, with a precious moment of time to admire the boreal beauty of a homeland so easy to take for granted.


Easy to take for granted. I just hope it isn't too easy to take.

Also, I've got to say man, I've signed up for a lot of Nation RPs and I've had very few GMs that put it as much work into their RPs that you are putting into this one. You are awesome.

No, she is part of his old guard, and basically always writes 50 shades of NRP, to the point of making me physically sick. Had to quit two other rps because of dat smut.

Pray to Rollden, God of intricate-confidence-inspiring-but-ultimately-pointless-dice-tosses. If your tactics and men fail you, it is up to him.

And you think I'm putting in work! Hah! You have no idea how many hours I've spent, head to the desk, not knowing how some of this shit is 'gonna work.

You mean Andrea? Didn't have a chance to see her write, but I don't think it would have bothered me. I don't care what people write about. It's easier to get disgusted by bad writing than weird erotica.

Out of morbid curiosity, do you happen to have a link to her writing?

No, I do not, and I wouldn't give it to my worst enemy. The whole genre I can't stand.

Can't say I like it either, but you're the first person I've met whose ever said they found it disgusting, so much as poorly written, or just eye-roll worthy.

It's just so hard to believe there are people with moral standards here, in the internet.

You're. . . one of us, right?

My old name was Walder, my new one is Flooby Badoop. Your name rings a distant bell, but I doubt we knew each other well. This can change.

*flamboyant wink*

Anyhow, welcome back. I myself have been on and off this site for the past year or two.

Alright, thanks for looking it over! I went back and did the edits (a couple of my end figures were changed as a result of the upkeep, as well)

Hey quick question are the accepted nations going to get their vassal information soon? I don't mean to rush you, I'm just curious simply because you mentioned they would be arriving in an earlier post either yesterday, or today, and since you don't seem to have mentioned them yesterday... Either way I'm still fine with waiting a bit longer on them in case you want to get all the nations together first. Also one last question is there going to be a certain way to keep track of vassals, and the lands that they own vs yours. (either by CS, or other means)

P.S. sorry for all the question I'm simply that kind of person hope you don't mind O/

Edit: Also one last thing about the who naming your small petty kingdom, I really think it would be cool if everyone either had different names to their lands, or self requested ones, personally I'm fine with name you gave me, and it is all up to you, but it is just a thought, and could be something to differentiate everyone!
