Hey guys!
I just want to say I'm still working on the setting! I'm very excited about how things are going and discussing things with you in #neschat and on Discord-IOT. In fact, several of the things shared below I got the ideas from those very discussions! Your ideas are taken into account and can be added by me! Please, tell me about what excites you, what you want to see, what you don't want to see, and I'll try to make those things happen!
Secondly! If you want me to open up a region or an option, either to play or interact significantly with, please post your interest! I would open such regions if 3-4 people are interested, and at least 2 of them want to play in the region. Each region would require significant but worthwhile work to bring online, and I'll be very happy if more people get to join and enjoy!
Also! Don't feel that if someone is in a slot you can't express interest for said slot! This is the prethread, not a signup thread, not a starting thread. I strongly disbelieve in first come first serve and prefer applications and to discuss narrative intent. Working with each other to work out who gets what is something I approve of, so that people can get exactly what they want. I'll be happy too, to discuss people who want to join as something unique and not listed!
Sounds good! I hope you get some good ideas after I release a bit more information, especially regarding the "faults" of the tribal system.
I would glad to have you in either region!
Intriguing and I'm glad to see this!
Coming up soon, I'll post some more in depth blurbs about Imperial and Tribal Cultures! Tomorrow I'll try to put something in about Urbanization, cultural implications, taxation and the Settlement mechanic.

I would be interested into joining as a River King who wants to end the tribal system permanently and instead move onto a more centralised monarchy. Perhaps alter the currently existing religion to make his rule easier, as well.

Hey. This seems interesting, epecially the tribal lands. I'm interested in something in Ancient Lands-if too crowded-maybe in the great grass desertall hail Crom
I would glad to have you in either region!
Vastya is One,Vastya is the Earth and the Sea and the Sun, Vastya is Heavenly, Vastya is Supreme.
...
Intriguing and I'm glad to see this!
Vastya is love, Vastya is life.
Terrance, what's the plan going forward? Are you going to start confirming people for spots, and then getting us to fill out a template? Or template first, confirmation later? Given that a lot more support has come on the tribal side, I'm going to officially throw my lot in with the Imperials, and apply to be a legion commander to keep things balanced. (KYDRONIANS, WHAT IS YOUR PROFESSION? AHOO, AHOO, etc.)
I plan to put out a template after I finish the basic background descriptions. Until then, offering suggestions, expanding on intent and descriptive building of factions, and such would make me very very happy!
I can also confirm Terrance is working on a blown up version of the draft map.
It's going to be YUUUUUGE. Size won't be an issue, let me tell you that, believe me, believe me!

Looking Good So Far!
Since we have more people interested in legions than we have legions to play, some options include opening up the plague-stricken capital legion for a player who doesn't mind being weaker, allowing some players to play lower-level characters within the same legion, or convincing one of the legionary applicants to play the military port instead.
I'd like to hear more of the player's intent on the legions, other than just warfare. The Legionary Warmachine can be formidable, but their teeth have a very defective tail, an issue that demands decisive action. That way, I can better offer alternatives [of which, these are certainly excellent!]
Very cool!...And so we fell upon them at sunset
Coming up soon, I'll post some more in depth blurbs about Imperial and Tribal Cultures! Tomorrow I'll try to put something in about Urbanization, cultural implications, taxation and the Settlement mechanic.
