Age of Glory, 1504 Alternate History RP, OOC/Signups

[Pharland]

Since the Black Death has appeared in the Americas and you all happen to be trading with them, what is your plan for stopping this deadly disease wiping out 1/3 of Europe's population?

It wont, perhaps 8-10%. After all they have immunity from past exposure, the natives have none.

Do you have a problem with a 1505 Agricultural Revolution? And, still trying to not sound impatient, when are you doing the Welsh thing? It doesn't really matter, just curious so as I know whether the 8-10% is of 3 million or 2.5ish million.

Immunity isn't passed on genetically though...

I will get to it tomorrow (I hope)

I have to disagree with the immunity, having studied this era of England for a rather long time, there was never an immunity built up to it. The Great Fire of London burned London to the ground and thus helped remove the disease from London and this was the case in other regions, the burning of bodies and isolation techniques helped the disease not spread. It still has a morality rate today of between 30% and 75%. That's just my opinion, if this strain has mutated, it could be disastrous.

I am most certainly not mutating the strain and am reminding you that 33% of Europe died the first time, an estimated total of 50% were infected and around 90%+ were exposed.

Wait, so it is the Bubonic Plague? Not just smallpox or anything?

That's why I was planning to "burn the infected alive as a sacrifice" when I got around to posting IC. After a drug and stress induced "Vision from the Gods" showing infected cities engulfed in flame.

Okay them, I just find it odd, that's all.

The Black Death, no mere smallpox.

Wait, it wasn't before he High Guardian said it was? Isn't that a wee bit messed up? And I'm going to put the three new colonies on my map.

You have a legitimate point though,in what you said. It would travel back and it wouldn't be pretty.

[Texcoco]

It's Black Death by the description in the events the Co-OP posted... Realistically it would travel back to Europe and Ravage the lands there too. There's a reason that Plague is so infamous. That's why I'm having a headache right now on how to handle it and am holding off my posts till tomorrow. Pretty much if I can't contain it, everyone would be in trouble.

Yeah, think of ten of your family members, now picture one of them slowly painfully dying of an infectious disease. That ain't pretty, and for every family in Europe, a disaster.

[The High Guardians]

It STILL in modern times ....has a higher mortality rate and that isn't a mutated strain....o.O

Nezahualpilli, IRL, had 144 children, it'd be a lot more than 10... LOL But yeah I get your meaning. Of all the diseases to pick to bring into the RP, Co-OP brought the one NO ONE is safe from. XD

Don't know about you but I can hide behind Hadrian's wall with a bunch of trained crossbowmen shooting at the infected English while my population live off of the land and fish,

This isn't the goddamn zombie apocalypse. And we have boats. And I'm going to out-alliance you, I can feeeel it.

Scotland's alliance's - France, Portugal, Spain - France and Spain seem pretty willing to invade England from the South while I kick you from the North

You missed something there, friend. How the hell did you even know Japan existed? Thats not what you missed by the way.

[Cin Neogh]

I have a feeling the sanitary measures I ordered in a while back should help me somewhat, along with the construction of the old Gaelic steam houses in the major towns. If people reported the plague returning I imagine leaders would take extreme measures to try and reduce infection.

Step 1 : All people are made visit the steam houses and bathe at least once every week
Step 2 : All infected must leave the city (camps would be built in a rural area)
Step 3 : Release the cats!
Step 4 : ???
Step 5 : Profit

Plots and schemes, no doubt. Plots and schemes for the future, from the past, it's all around us! Who is to be trusted, is it you, is it I? Who can be trusted?
