But what if people are occupied with a meeting or something that's only going to take a couple of days? I think the more difficult part isn't determining how much time has passed, but rather synching up everything that's going on in the world.

Titanic. At the bottom of your posts is a little button that says "Edit". Please use that if nobody has said anything since your last post, it saves a lot of space.

And Golem, there's some stuff about the Ta'hamurg I need to know for my history. Like, how far did they expand? How did they expand, was it predominantly through military might or was it diplomatically? And how did they treat people of other faiths that would refuse to put the Ta'hamurg God above their own native God(s)?

EDIT: And Rare, that's still a long ways to go. If the canal's not built at the beginning, it's not something that'll be quick. Though magic could probably speed it up quite a bit. But that's just my opinion and Golem has the final say.

How exactly is this canal being built in the first place? That's quite a long ways from the end of the river to the sea.

Oh, it was that island. I was actually planning on taking the green part in the North near the river. But, as you said, it was taken already.

Batarian Batman said
Hmm true. Most of this was done using an island but then I switched over to the mainland. I'll change it up.

Gotcha, that's understandable. I had a couple ideas involving islands too, but decided against them. Islands are nice and defensible, but it involves too much naval stuff for my tastes.

I'd have to agree, and with a nation that expansive I don't think 90% would be Cist. But then again, I suppose it depends on how one defines how someone being a Cist is determined.

Oh, and Golem I changed some stuff around with magic and added a flag. I hope everything's all good. But I do have a question about the Ta’hamurg empire; were their beliefs always the same as what your nations believes in now, or was it different earlier on in its history? I'm just trying to determine the history of Kant, and with the Ta’hamurg empire worshiping their God above all others and the Kantau worshiping the Great Mother above all other Gods, I'm trying to determine how the two groups interacted historically.

I'm not complaining, I'm fine with it. I'll just edit my nation sheet. But I do think you should state in the first paragraph that they're legendary and unique, not just rare. Because 80 mages in a population of several hundred thousand is still technically rare.

I know but I'm just saying nobody is going to take the stone-age option if magic is that rare. And maybe you should actually say how rare rather than comparing it to Gandalf, because I'm not a Lord of the Rings fan and I didn't actually know how rare that was until you actually said it.

Golem, I'm curious. If mages are supposed to be like single-digits rare, how are we supposed to make a nation that goes with magic over technology? I think I may not have made things in my nation sheet clear if you accepted it. Because all of the clergy of Kant are technically mages. Granted most of them are healers and they can't do much aside from dull pain and maybe help people get over illnesses sooner (if it's something that can kill you, they can't do anything but make your death painless and comfortable), but they're still technically mages.

Hey Golem, just a suggestion, but could you put a list of all the nations with the username of who plays them? That way it's easy to just check and see who's who.
