I always envisioned OO as being control through fear - by using roaming Priests (perhaps with a pack of disciples) in a uber witchfinder general role, instilling hysteria and paranoia in the local population. I envision the government being responsible for 'schooling' the Priests through...

Was giving this a go last night - playing as Britain. Think the science levels need to be tweaked somewhat as each research project was being churned out in a turn. By the time you've traded with allies the whole tech tree is researched before the end of 1914 Britain also starts with way too...

The lore reason is that its all part of the Svart plot to subjugate Erebus

Whilst I agree, the counter argument to this is that experience gained through combat doesn't stack up with the analogy.

Mesmerize Animal Andril noted how the mood of his forest surroundings changed long before the more tell tale signs of webs and the skeletal remains made the presence known. “The Dark Mother” and her spawn had been a bane to the Ljosalfjar for a generation. From the earliest days...

Dereptus Brewing House Falgrad looked up at the Wizards Tower to where he had committed his future for the next few years at least. He looked forward to receiving the best tutelage, and access to the best resources that would help hone his undoubted talent and optimistically he looked forward...

The return of the Ratcatchers Guild Hagneth looked in despair around him. Life on campaign had brought with it a new horror – the country life. He found himself confronted by rations made up of pilfered turnips, and meat that still looked like the animal it had come from. There were no...
