Fantasy NES: Sekai

Technically, just sending you relevant information with orders seems easier to me; also, it's going to be very difficult to make sure that everyone will update on time.

I'm going to be gone from saturday-friday with no internet access. Sorry.

Yes, but no one has to post an update on time, really. It is to their disadvantage. Obviously, you would only post an update if you want to play the game or advance your realm and what not. So if you don't, you miss out on a lot of stuff and other players who are posting orders would advance ahead. So it definitely has its incentives.

Hey- what happened to my group?

Hey- what happened to my group?

I'll definitely include you in the update, I just need some names first.

Sorry for the somewhat skimpy update, too - but you guys should post some stories involving all of this as well, and of course you can get into your own little quests that do not really need my guidance specifically. Better updates will come. I am so strapped for time these days.

 

[Ninja Dude]

Okay, since I sent orders before update one, I send two more sets of orders? this is starting to confuse me a little.

Also, what's going on about stats? Are you actually going to keep track of them?

 

[Neverwonagame3]

I don't care that much about the names- you can make them up if you like. Could you just make up ones appropriate for minor Human nobility?

You do not need to send me orders at all, at any time. You post them yourself in the thread, and I will review them. You drive the story yourself, and then I will continue with updates.

Neverwon, it would honestly be a lot easier on me if you came up with all your information.

What about stats? Are we going to have to keep track of those too? I just want to make sure I understand everything.

Also, how often are you going to update? Becasue you said troop movements are possible each day, so I'm guessing this would be difficult to keep track of without someone telling us when forces clash and stuff.

I'll try to update at least once a week. Yes, troops can move daily, and during times of war with other players, the results of those encounters will be posted on the day the clash happens - you have to consciously attack armies, anyway. Those battles would also be mentioned in the overall update.

As for character experience points, I still hand those out during updates, don't worry. But for kingdom stats, you need to keep track of those. I will look over them, but the rules clearly tell you how to manage them. 5% initial growth rate, add growth rate with marketplaces, etc. If you have any problems, you can always ask me and I'd be happy to help.

You do not have to post Orders (post them, do not send them to me) every turn, but this might be bad for your kingdom in the long run.

I hope this clarifies everything.

Let the game begin!

By the way, I will give bonus growth rate adds and experience point adds for good posting, especially if someone drives the story further. Any story, it does not have to be the main conflict.

 

[Ninja Dude]

Is this okay, Kkmo?

Yes, this is fine - you may go ahead and post this in the main thread. They look great.

 

[kkmo]

They can be implemented whenever you want them to. Go ahead and post them in the main thread as your preliminary orders, then you can also post a Week 1 set, and a Week 2 set as well.

This week, I'll give you experience if you do anything notable, etc. Your first orders you sent me are fine, go ahead and re-post those, and include your characters and their stats and names, to make things clear to everyone, especially me.

 

[Angst]

Orders are to be here then, right?

Ragnar/lord_joakim
Class/Sex: Human Mage/Male
Attack: 5
Defense: 1
Movement: 2
Hit Points: 2
Spells/Skills: Firebolt, Ice Armor, Lesser Heal (+1 DMG, +1 DEF, +1 HP)
Current Location: O21

This is my status after the three turns. I have trained as a mage for some time, and is now quite hungry. Wanting a mission, I enter the local tavern in my village to see if someone needs a mercenary for hire (Any person can hire me to do anything, as long as I don't do things against the Law of Mathlen). I will also look for stories about rich caves, dungeons, etc. which I can raid.

 

[das]

a) The update was alright, but...
b) I was rather hoping for an updated map with the NPCs and whatnot by now.
c) Also:

Each time I post an update, you can post a new set of orders.

Post or PM? I am guessing that both are acceptable.
d) So are you going to do such basic updates for every turn, while leaving it to us to fill in our respective blanks (that would probably work better than leaving the entire update to us, since there are various probabilities, NPCs and random events to decide upon)?
e) In any case, will we have to post the stories on Sunday or will some delays be acceptable if that's just not practicable?

Continuing from other thread.

No, not your backstory. Your movements. What you are doing. The game you are playing. Where are you going? How will you get there? What will you encounter? I am not expected to come up with stuff for all of you to do, you need to have goals and attempt to accomplish them. I have even put areas of the map listed where there are special encampments that are guarded by certain creatures, or areas where special items for characters may be found.

Anywho, this thread should mainly be for In-Character posts, so lets take this topic to the other thread.

All right, I got it now.

My nation has not been added.

EDIT:Ignore this post. I apparently can't tell this thread from the other one.
