Discord doesn't work on my phone so I wont be in that chat.

But I've figured out what's been going on with guild.

And ill be keeping the big island to the south as well as the part of the mainland right west of it. That should be reasonable as the distance isn't as far between the two.

Everything else is "axed" lol.

Ok??
@Sigmawell that's a shame. There's really nothing out there right now.
@Sigma

So what's next lol
@DeadBeatWalking That's my biggest worry. I figured if travel was possible around the continents, it'd make nations easier to interact with.

Unless we have ways for one continent to interact with the other in any reasonable manner, it's just going to be two separate NRP's. one for the west continent, and one for the east.

So, Spleen. I'll be hiring your people for sure.

@Jeyma, How does your nation feel about other expansive oceanic empires.
The only thing guns destroyed were castles and that's only for them to return with vengeance in the 16th century. Seriously, instead of eliminating sieges it's statistical fact that in areas where star forts and other advanced fortifications were made all warfare was nothing but a huge list of sieges.

EDIT: Dude, I have more posts than you and joined earlier than you. I almost exclusively only posted in the NRP section. Me not participating in enough RPs, really? You just had a few bad games and try to generalize it, that's all.


Alright, firstly. I was in old guild nearly since it opened, so don't be trying that elitist I was here first and longest bs. secondly, I have played in many, many rps. and many, many of them fail due to guns and the dick measuring that follows, a decent amount of which you were in as well. It's not just a few bad games and trying to generalize it. You're generalizing by saying I've had a few bad games. That's all.

Anyways. I agree with TSG, the GM will decide on this issue of guns. Regardless of his decision, I will stick with the nrp.
<Snipped quote by Darkspleen>Depends on how widespead, really.
I mean it's a fact that the "knight in shining armor" image and the growing armies of gunmen were actually developed in parallel in history. The idea that guns destroyed "pure medieval style combat" is a big hogwash and actually it wasn't till the 17th century in Europe when the heavy cavalry started to go out of favor.
The kind of gunman that could render armor almost irrelevant was the musketeer, the original one. They were large physically fit men carrying oversized firearms firing bullets with diameters you nowadays see for light cannons. They were paid double for their services.

<Snipped quote by Monkeypants>British disagree with you. They kept archers on ships up till the late 17th century or so?
Make no mistake guns were a phenomenon of the era which brought many changes over the time. They did have their quite significant advantages. But in the end both were weapons that could kill a man and what really led to the end of the longbow era that Britain ran out of the wood used for them and men training from birth to be longbowmen grew scarce.


I take it you do not rp very much. Most medieval nrps that are created works until guns are introduced. I've rarely seen an nrp survive past the first page or two that uses guns. It always ends in dick measuring and a lack of balance. And you'll have those "gun experts" that will start speeling on about details, I got wheel locks first or some shit.

I rarely see arguments over swords or bows, hell even crossbows.

And my point still stands, guns cancel out bows and swords.

I'll still stay if the GM decides we use guns and I wont argue it further.
Sounds like @DeadBeatWalking has a lot to think about.
