Altor Nes 2: A New Age

[DarthNader]

Holy triple post Batman!

Well, perhaps you could point us in the direction of possible iron mines later then. Also, our scouting parties never noticed you had any shoreline when they searched for a good spot to colonize. How do plan to use sea trade when you have no ports or sea access?

We do have a small strip of land connected to the sea that is suitable for ports and indeed has a couple of lightly populated fishing towns along it. Having no navy is not a sign of a nation being landlocked or primative is it? We have far greater concerns on land and so should you if you wish to remain on Halsaoi (Land of Warriors. The name of the actual contient you are on). As for iron mines there are many deposits of iron in and around the Shield Mountains (mountains that form the northern edge of Danleon's territory). Before you ask any iron you find is yours to keep and you have unrestricted access. Just don't mine from our mines!

Something I would like all players to look at is on the front page namely the announcement of our new cartographer DarthNader and his new maps.

I am willing to begin trading with your tribes. Alvalon needs your mighty horses to mount our knights and in return we will give you fine iron tools and weapons. I also personally beg you to help us deal with the current crisis by providing food or military support for us if you can.

to King Hal

First of all, we are free men but are willing to trade.
Horses for Iron, a good trade. I agree to this.
Also, you beg for food? We will give you this favor as a symbol of our friendship. (1PP)

Excellent thank you. Alvalon is truely in your debt. You have given strangers who you know little of hope. Words cannot express my graditude and the graditude of my people. We shall remember your kindness till the end of days and we shall repay it in kind one day.

OOC: Charles Li could you explain your form of government to me please. From your description I thought you were a tribal society is this correct? If not then what are you? Thanks.

42 hours left till orders are due in and I have none. Please get them in before midday on Saturday GMT. Thomas as you know this does not apply to you but I still have don't have complete stats for you please send them to me tomorrow so I can update you.

 

[Terrance888]

Yes. And I don't want to be a horde yet do I?

 

[Vertinari118]

You can play as a tribal group if you prefer. It will affect some things for good or for ill. You wouldn't become a maurding barbarian horde if you didn't want to be one. Maybe you could write a story explaining.

LESS THAN TWENTY FOUR HOURS TO GO! Please start asking for an extention NOW or SEND me those ORDERS. I currently have NONE!

 

[Terrance888]

Well, it is like the Iroquois Confederation if you know what I mean.

There are a few main towns and villages where nomads restock then they go out to their homesteads and hunt/herd/do whatever.

 

[DarthNader]

I thought I sent orders. Didn't you get them Vert?

 

[Vertinari118]

I got them at the time you send them which was after my post. I now have one set of orders. Charles Li please send orders. Anyone know where LJ is? Any ideas on how to recruit new players you may be as rude and critical as you feel you need to be.

 

[DarthNader]

Although I am not saying I want this closed down, maybe you should have put more "publicity" in the pre-NES, making sure you had some definate people on board before starting. The only thing I think you can do now (besides actually asking people) is write an excellent, extremely good update. That update might convince any lurkers watching to join.

 

[Vertinari118]

True but I did think more of the players from my old NES would drop in at that time. Clearly I was wrong. Darth I will keep this going as long as I have players. I intend to write the best update I can.

 

[Vertinari118]

Progress report: I have already written 677 words just about you Darth and I will write an awful lot more. You have no idea what you have caused Darth. Charles don't worry I will get to you eventually. You may wish to skip the first one thousand or so words of the update however.

 

[Terrance888]

OOC: Gods war already? OMFDA. HFD.

 

[DarthNader]

Should I be scared or happy? Or was this all about my major screw up in making the maps?

 

[Vertinari118]

No Gods War for goodness sake but you should be fairly scared DarthNader. I warn you though this update will not be up today as I have a history essay to write for Thursday. I would say maybe Wednesday, school work allowing. Do you want to fix the map or shall I do it when I get the update done?

 

[DarthNader]

Yea, I can work on the map...but I am gonna really overhaul so it looks good. It may come after the update though.

 

[Vertinari118]

Progress report: Sorry for the slow progress I had a week of non-stop homework. I have nearly finished the whole issue with Darth though there are a few things left to resolve. I will try to finish Darth tonight and Charles tomorrow morning. I will get the update up tomorrow come hell or high water. That is a promise.

 

[Vertinari118]

Sorry do bring bad news. Hell and high water make not have come but Grandparents did for lunch and afternoon tea thus scuppering my plans for finishing the update. I am nearly done and will finish it. I promise.

 

[Abaddon]

Fingers crossed.
