Hi everyone! I am starting yet another NES, but this one has a different ring to it, it's a fantasy NES, much like that of FANNES by WarlordMatt.

History

It was the year of turmoil. The elves have shifted from a super power to a race struggling for power, rivaling that of the Human Race now, in the Kingdom of Lenmen.

The elves have been through many kings unfit to rule the kingdom, and numerous wars with the Night Elves have proved devestating for race.

The Humans, on the other hand, have been prospering after their long war with the Demons, in which they won and banished the demons to Forbiddon island.

The dwarves, lying dorment most of history, are begining to open up their caves to visitors and are widening their horizon with actual feilds and cities.

The rest of the world have yet to proven themselves, and only time will tell what will happen in the future.

RULES

MONEY

Gaining money is a little different then that of JNES and UKNES. You recieve 5g per turn for a town, and 10g for a castle. You do

WHAT YOU MAY BUY

You may buy with your money the following:
Your special unit...10g
Regular Army...5g
Regular Navy...10g
A town in a province...5g
Castle...20g
Send it to another player for what every reason
Buy a trading fleet ...5g
Barracks...15g
Harbor...15g

MOVING
Unless specified by your special unit, all units may only move one sea/province a turn.

TRADING
For every nation you share a border with, you may sign a RTT and begin trading with, inwhich you will recieve an extra 1g that turn. RTT's last as long until war is claimed or one nation breaks it off. You may trade by sea as well, but requires the construction of a trading fleet. The trading fleet can be use as many times as you want, but it must reach another province with a harbor to trade.

Fighting is the same as JNES, if you want me to explain it, I will, but otherwise I won't.

LOADING UNLOADING

Loading and unloading does NOT take a units turn. You may unload and load as many times as you wish in one turn, but it must be done before a fleet moves.

BUILDING

There are four structure you may build, HARBOR, BARRACKS, CASTLE, and TOWN. A harbor may only be built on coastal provinces and allow for the construction of a fleet/trading fleet. Barracks all the contruction of armies/special units in that province inwhich it was built. Towns are what yu need to construct to claim a province. Castles are all three put together. Costs are above. To construct a castle, you must have a town, and either a barrack or a dock in that province. In order ot build a structure, you must have amilitary presence in the province. Only one structure can be built ina province at one turn, and building does NOT take a army/special unit's turn.

Militia is only present when there is a town/castle and acts like an army wth a -3 to defense

A Barracks provide a +2 to defense from a land attack, a dock +2 from a bombardment, and a castle +4 to any attack.

Bombardment from the sea can happen to any coastal province from an adjacent sea with the fleet in it. The bombardmet will hault any construction, and has a 1/3 chance to destroy the sturcture in the province, given there are no military troops in it. Every 2 armis/S.U. provide a +1 defense to bombardment.

There are 3 maps, one with names, one with provinces outlined, and one with numbers. The one with names will be updated whenever someone wants to add to it (you may, with your orders, ask me to name something on the map... i.e. Nem's forest...lol. To name something, you must own the province in which it is in). The Province map (w/o numbers) is what will be updated every day (or so I will try). This will show the castles and units etc. on them. The map with numbers is to provide you wti ha way to submit orders and talk amongst yourselves.

Ok, everyone starts out with a Castle in their province and 10g from it. Good Luck!

seems alright to me

To: The Demons
From: The Orcs
I see you went and got yourself a nice little island there, but it is a bit small isn`t it? Being as it is, that we Orcs are evil and all that, we realize the need for a Dark Overlord like yourself to seize more land. So we offer our hand in friendship, and hope that those goody-two-shoes Humans get what`s coming for them.

to:the world
from:the dwarves
hello, nice to see you all. i just have one thing to say: STAY OUT OF MY MOUNTAINS!!

/ooc DANG, i aint even started looking at the map yet, and already there are people threatening me :D
if it keeps up like this, this will be a GREAT game.
this 2 map concept is gonna be hard to get used to.
now to figure out who is where :lol:

Great everyone, this looks like its going to be fun! I just noticed something terirbly wrong! The map has no Sea's!!! I will be deleted the ones up there and will add them down here. Sorry for the inconvineice.

Nem: How do I make two maps in one post? I will wait until you respond so I don't make two posts again.

Also, if someone dosnt send in orders, I will bank as much as gold as I can (there is a 10g limit in this NES as well), and that will be it, unless of course the person is on vacation or has an excuse. You must warn me ahead one turn, though.

ooc: When is the next turn?

jason, some questions (you getting tired of me yet? :lol: )
so where do we get resources?
the only way i can understand how that works is that only barracks/castiles on the right type of terrain can build the spec units. is that right?

what is i sea territory? its all one big territory as far as i can see. is there lines missing?

is the orks spec realy +2 when suprising, or should one of those '+1 attack' be defence? (just making sure)

territories that have 2 terrain types (39, 46...) which type are they, or both???

Cross borders? 63 to 37, 28 to 69. one move or 2?

i would like to know the combat system (as its now used in 2 of games i'm in)

just out of curiosity, how come no one started on the NW island?

well i cant think of any more right now, but you can expect them soon ;)

RoddyVR

good idea about that absenty ruler thing. :D

cant you edit posts to put different pictures into them? (never tried) why make new posts, it will be confusing for people who want to read the game later, 'where are the maps?' kind of thing.

BTW, I made it so hopefully there will be at least 2 superpowers, in which everyone might despise and go after, to start war...lol. JNES2 ihas yet to see ANY action, so we need some sort of booster!

-Jason

Not tired of you at all Roddy! I'm glad I get all these questions at once so I don't have any confusion in the game!

so where do we get resources?
Very simple, you get resources if one of your provinces has it in it. You can have just one province with it, but you get an unlimited supply (to make it simple).

what is i sea territory? its all one big territory as far as i can see. is there lines missing?
Funny story, I should tell you some time...(lol)

is the orks spec realy +2 when suprising, or should one of those '+1 attack' be defence? (just making sure)
No, it is a +1 attack, no bonus for defense for the orc people. So if it is a suprise attack, it would be a +2.

territories that have 2 terrain types (39, 46...) which type are they, or both???
They are both

Cross borders? 63 to 37, 28 to 69. one move or 2?
2, you msut go through the adjacent territories first.

i would like to know the combat system (as its now used in 2 of games i'm in)
Ok, here it goes. It is actually VERY MUCH like Nem's system, but I use a d20, and the middle number is 10. When an attack is atacking (lets say 1 army to another army), the attacker must roll from 11 through 20 to kill. If the defender has a +1 defense, the attacker would have to role 12-20, and reversed for an attack bonus. If both have a special attribute (+1 attack, +1 defense), then they cancel eachother out. I do this system until all armies have died on either side, or as specified by the attacker.
For militia, I add a +3 attack to the attackers.

just out of curiosity, how come no one started on the NW island?
Actually, that used to not be there, I added it later on because I thought that there would be high tensions in the west, and so I could make provinces big enough to fit the cancel and hella of a lot of armies.

was doing my first order and realized another question.
any upkeep on armies/fleets/spec units?

I'm not sure how that workd either, editing the pictures, I know I used to do it, but when I tried to do it for JNES, it didn't work.

Next turn will be tomorrow morn, probly 10:00 am or so, PST.

Yes, the usual.

Oh, and new armies CAN NOT attack, but they can move and defend.

I do this system until all armies have died on either side, or as specified by the attacker.
For militia, I add a +3 attack to the attackers.


thanks for the combat system details. i dont get the militia thing though.
what you have there means that the militia is EASIER TO KILL then a regular armie. so:
if i attack with 2 regular armies into a territory that has 1 army and 1 militia (also no def bonuses).
if i roll a 15 and a 9, do they both die?
how about if i roll 2 9s does the militia die, or does the armie have to die first?

if that seems a bit complicated then my suggestion would be to make it so that the militia would need 3 higher to kill something instead of being easyer to kill itsself.

DAM, that upkeep is gonna slow down the initial expantion by half. 1st turn we either build a spec, or buile a regular and a town. that makes next turn give 9 or 14 gold which is one short of doing some great stuff.
everything is in multiples of 5 except the upkeep, its gonna throw everything out of whack.
could we make armies cost 4 or something, it would speed up the expantion by ALOT.

i just like it when everything is taken and we start arguing and fighting, till then its a bit predictable what you have to do.

Hmm, you give a good point, Roddy (have you thought about ever modding a game? You'd do great, i bet). I'm not quite sure what to do about it (I knew I should have stuck with Nem's system!). I guess upkeep will by 5g whenever you reach 5 armies, 10 armies would be 10g, and so on. How does this sound?

Um, Jason, I'm just the Elves :p.

and in between (like 7 armies) would still be 5g. 8 armies, though, would round up and be 10g. How does htis sound, everyone?

Jason: Here's an idea for upkeep. Each town(including barracks or docks) gives you one unit free for upkeep, each castle gives you two units free for upkeep. Anything over that amount is 5 gold per unit for upkeep.

This will make expanding quick, and give larger empires the boost they need to defend so many borders.

Also, to do more than one map in a post, simply use the "Upload File" right at the bottom of a forum page, just above the credits. Upload your file, then use [img] tags with the address being http://www.civfanatics.net/uploads/yourfile.jpg or whatever.

Nemesis

Ok, thanks Nem.

EVERYONE READ NEM'S POST ABOVE, THAT IDEA IS WHAT IS GOING TO BE INSTATED IN THE GAME.

UPDATE WILL BE IN 11 hours (lol), around 10:00 PM PST.

i LOVE that upkeep idea!!!

i dont get the 11 hours thing at all. pst is 3 hours behind me, and your post says 8:44 (my time) thats 5:44 your time (i hope) which makes 10:00 PM 5 hours away not 11???
not that it matters. ;)

Jason: Here's an idea, on that numbers map, include the castle icons for the capitals, and put the name of the race whose capital it is.

It makes it a helluva lot easier to work out where everyone is lol.

Finally, to the Orcs from the Demons:

We accept a MPP with you.

Lucifer of the Demons

Typo, Roddy, I meant AM, lol

Nem, alright, if I remember I will do that.

Roddy, about the Militia, it does not put up a great fight,basically, it is just there for a confidence...lol. Every army in the province must be killed before combat is engaged on the Militia, inwhich THEN is when the attackers get a +3 advantage. Does this make sense?

double

In the dynasty of the Lotherine kings, of whome heroes had been made, came great riches and great defeats for the magical Elves. Those who lived in the forests and in the sunlight now sought their placein the Sun.

Lotherine Forest, and the Elven capital of Ehetheron, has seen many great advantages for the Elven archers. Now the Kingdom sought to reach outside her forest, beyond her humble abode to which she had been confined for so many years.

Queen Varianne Lotherine XI, a young magician and the daughter of one of the few great Lotherine Kings, now sought to reach at the ray of hope outside the forest's leaves and beauty in the bid for Empire.

No more a small Kingdom, of long lines of blood that were wrought with disaster, the Elven nation would rise above the ashes to rebuild herself and seek a new destiny. A new life.

A rebirth.

OOC- Toasty, I'd check out the UKNES3 thread, Britain seems to be bullying you in a British way(very polite lol).

Nemesis

Hey hey hey hold up I'm Witch King Malekith of the Night Elves!

To the Elves
From the Demi God Pan.
I wish to extend the hand of freindship to my fellows of the forest and magic. May we forge an alliance of Nature to combat that of the demonic hordes and there orc pets.

/ooc
so the only races still not taken are mages and goblins?
i think the beggining is when them not moving is gonna CRIPPLE them. maybe UNTILL (not later, when owner is away) they are claimed we should either move for them (jason) or atleast lift the gold stockpile restriction from them, so the player can come in strong (somewhat) when he/she does join.

I am naming my self King Arthur and my capitol (63)is Camelot.

Update in an hour

Ok, 1st UPDATE



Demon has 15g to spend!

Dwarves has 15g to spend!

Dark Elves has 10g to spend!

Elves has 20g to spend!

Humans has 15g to spend!

Mages has 15g to spend!

Priests has 15g to spend!

Centaurs has 20g to spend!

Orc has 10g to spend!

Goblins has 15g to spend!


Oh, and the colors on the maps are:

Demons Red
Dwarves D Green
Dark Elves Yellow
Elves White
Humans L Blue
Mages Light Green
Priests Pink
Centaurs D. Blue
Orcs Orange
Goblins Purple

i am confused.
what is the difference between what happened in 19 and 39???
what did the Elves (10) do?
what did the Night Elves (54) do?
nothing at all?
how come they dont have 20 gold a peice then?

who has the mages (25)?
who has the Goblins(91)?
or did you move for them?

how come still no sea territories (i know you busyand we dont need them NOW, but...)?

cool graphics BTW! not one spec unit yet?

to: priest
from:dwarves
i sugest we sign a RTT and that you take province 15 next and i`ll take 80 so that we can start trading next turn.

lol, YOU TRY MODDING THIS FREGIN MAP! lol, jk. Yes, some first errors, but wont happen again, I assure you that. I have been updating either early in the morn or late at night, so I am tired when doing it and make stupid mistakes.

Nothing is different in 19 and 39, just stupid stars. 19 and 18 should not have a star. Sigh.. The elves and night elves leader was reluctant to get orders in, ther for nothing happened. They are supposed to have 20g a piece, my bad and it is changed now.

Mages and Goblins should nto be punsihed because they have no ruler, and since there is only 2 of them, I moved for them.

No sea territories because I forgot.

No, not one spec unti yet. I was going to use sepc graphic for them, but I think they will just be some shap because it is already hard enough as it is.

Thank you for the comment, I hope everyone is enjoying them because it takes for ever to update! :)

Anyways, next update will be tomorrow. Everyone, get your orders in as soon as possible please so I am not rushed at then end

Oh ya, and in this NES i do not do moves on the statement "if". Ok? I have enough to do! :)

Oh and one more anouncement: This will be the last JNES, and my last game being a MOD.

-Jason

to:humans
from:dwarves
i do not accept your offer, but i will help you in a war if my empire is in danger(role playing).

Jason, sorry for stepping on your toes like this.
i have always had a thing about questioning authority, untill all it want to do is shut me up.
drove my teachers mad (especialy the math teachers).
see in person though i am very likable, so people dont get too upset at me, but in text its prety hard to get the smiles to come through.
i gues i could put a smile between every word instead of spaces, but THAT would piss a lot of people off even worse :).

Mages have no leader? i wouldn't mind being it, if what I read is correct.

Uh, sorry Jason, I just don't have the energy to post orders tonight(it's 8:00 PM where I live), so if you can't wait for me until tommorrow then go ahead and remove me if you want. Sorry. :)

Jason: You shouldn't stop moderating, you're good at it. I thought the UKNES2 was going to be my last NES moderating...

Now look lol, I'm already planning the UKNES4, and the UKNES3 has reached nearly 1000 posts!

Just when this one finishes(I hope it never does), then if you are fed up with the large style NESs, then choose say 5 people who've played in your NESs who always get orders in on time etc and invite them to play a smaller NES, which only has those players, and a smaller map(perhaps Troquelet's map of Britain or something) and is more richly detailed.

Nemesis

Jason i just checked my orders from last time and i sent that second army to 29 not 19 could you fix that for me thanks in advance. I am going to send you fixed orders now.

Ummm...

Death to all good people! :p

Um, uk, wrong thread :D.

Lothlerine forest is the homeland of the Elves and we would sooner die than lose an inch of it. If you step foot on this territory, we will kill you in an instant. You'll find we elves are not easy prey. Don't get me started, okay?

So long as you keep out of Lothlerine Forest we will not harm you.

I'm perfectly fine with this. I'm all for respect and international cooperatoin. I will not so much as think about assailing the elves, and therefore no need to get angry.

so how do we handle this then?
i have already given the army in 47 the order to build a town in the forest.
i think if i send a dispatch REALY quickly to that army i can prevent then from running into your forces, but you already have a forest to the southwest of your Castle, let me have this one.
please reply asap, so that we know what to do.

update in like 1/2 hour

This might not be good....
hope you didnt send an army to 46 cause i did (before you decided to lay claim to it). you have yet to give me cause to turn them away and its already late december (/ooc or we got less then 1/2 left if that much)

Arthur of Camelot.

jason, do me a favor.
take that "oh and like Roddy..." thing off your signature. i keep seeing my name and keep thinking its something i should read.
i have read your sig at least 100 times now. :lol:

lol, ok Roddy, and UPDATE WILL NOT BE TILL TONIGHT. I screwed everything up, I got mixed up with JNES Civil war, I did all the stuff on that worksheet, so will have to fix Civil War and Fantasy JNES. If anyone can, please resend you orders saying AT LEAST your name in the text (all i do is copy and paste) and how much money you have to spend and how much left over at the end. It would help a lot!

-Jason

Oh, and let it be known that if two armies from two different nations gointo the same territory, there WILL be a battle.

Yo have time to change you orders, because I see A LOT of that happening.

To: Humans
From: Orcs
you may have 37...

ok, sorry everyone, I can not mod this game. It is very hard, orders are ususally wrong because of the rules are so different, and I am also doing the civil war NES. I will just stick with the civil war one.

If someone wants to take this lot of people and make anotehr FANES, PLEASE DO! I would love to play a game like this! I hope someone does..

Sorry everyone.

never mind it's closed....
