Civilization Domination RP; OOC

[Adurnak]

I'm gonna go for all Greece, some of magna-grecia, a bit of Illyria and up to the Danube in the north would be coo and crete and some other islands

Looks like I have a rival.

Are you the light blue in Western Greece? If so you can have up to the Danube then haha

I'm the brown (I hope that's brown) in Romania. I plan to own all of Dacia, at the minimum. So, do you know where the Danube suddenly turns towards the north, before it forms the delta? That part, I want it also.
My sphere of influence would extend to Bulgaria and Serbia, which I plan to RP as being related tribes, like in real life.

That is my plan, under optimal conditions. If someone signs up in these areas, the plan changes.

I'll just stay south of the Danube then

There we go. Just like in any RP, everything is decided a month before it happens in such a way that everyone gets along fine and makes their giant empires.
Not that I'm complaining.

Corocotta Punicus is an awesome name that will be the name for my equivalent of Caesar.

[Adurnak]

I probably won't do a giant empire, just a nice little kingdom to call my own, I always think too far in advance anyway, I went with Greece because it was out of the way and has the Danube as a nice natural border

I love river borders, too. Actually, most of my planned country's borders are defined by rivers: the Danube, Nistru, and Tisa (I think?).

[Verdum]

I just want to attempt to unite the Germanic areas where Prussia began, except carve a path to Brandenburg, then I will just claim areas they sorta did.
Although I am obviously going for Silesia; IRON.

Um, Siddhārtha Gautama(Buddha) is not born for another 4,000 some odd years. Theraveda Buddhism comes into being some hundred years after that.

I knew I was missing something.....
Yeah, he should change that.

Hey. Horus, do you know if we're going to timeskip while advancing, or time-skip while in stasis?

If the former I need to start writing a longass post to cover a helluva lot of history.

No idea. Reatra only knows.

Hmph.

Well, I'll hope he enlightens me some time in the near future.

Hey guys what's the most up to date map?

Also I'm wondering if I should post something short in the Ic now or wait and do something more substantial when I get home

[Bujahla]

So I've found the main problem in this RP, its us.
The pace of development is much to slow for us (modern day humans) to comprehend. When new major things are made so often (e.g. iphone, ipad, laptops, more advances, yaddah yaddah) we can't comprehend the idea of simply tying a sail onto a ship was much to hard for most people to understand and develop. It may seem like a simple step for us to be like, "Hey, wind, lets put a sail to catch it," but had you never seen a sail you would have never invented it. Same goes for how we should be RP this. The pace of development was much slower. People ruling other people that were far away from them? Not an existent (much) concept. People living with walls around them? Not existent. People making written languages. Completely not existent. Stuff like this didn't happen back then because it was too hard for them to make the jump from their current technology. Today, I bet most of us would not be able to produce the next major invention that would changed the world even if our lives depended on it. Making large innovative jumps isn't easy, but it gets easier, and more common with the formation of organize states that allow people to not always farm as well as a larger populations for a higher chance to much such steps forward. The problem is that none of us care to sit idly by as our people don't develop anything new and don't go beyond the status quo, thus this RP is highly unrealistic. But whatever cause domesticated unicorns xD.

Any suggestions to fix the problem or are you that guy

1. Jump the time frame so we are at 3000 BCE, right where civilizations are starting to form.
2. Yeah that's about it. We all want to be at that time frame anyway so we might as well. Development of our villages culture? Ba humbug. People aren't doing that, they are just inventing things that will come about in the future. We could do a massive time jump and just formulate our cultures be writing about them. I think most of us would agree that it really doesn't help any of us to spend what, 5 months (that sounds about right till its 3000 BCE), saying that our villages traded with other people, new people got into power, and that we caught a lot of fish.

The map in the OP is the most updated. Over the past 48 hours, we've had many more apps that Reatra just couldn't update yet. I sent him a link list, and let's hope for the best when he logs on.

I'm personally more preferable to jumping to 4000 BCE; that's when you start seeing interesting changes happen in a hundred years, as opposed to a thousand.

[Horusland]

Let's have a vote. Three thousand versus four thousand.

I agree with this.


On another note, I am the Light Blue! Challenge me if you dare

I hope the latter.
