History of Man III (OOC, Always Open)

[Aldelxane]

And the "I'm better than you" begins..

What do you mean?

Can you expand east of Tunisia in Africa so their isn't a massive war between us at the beginning?

Let us not forget that nation falls and that we are trying to incorporate that into this one that way we can have a carthage, rome, and Byzantine empire, but all at different times in history.

True, but I don't want to be eliminated by Rome right at the start (and I bet he feels the same about me).

You wouldn't. Or I don't know. Whatever you guys would decide on.

Sure.

[Alleniana]

Isn't this godmodding, seeing as you are basically taking control of all of Europe?

No, he's just having nomads pass through nations shall they allow it. At this time, you really couldn't stop it. It would be like the Romani.

And I guess I reserve palestine for my starting area.

EDIT: Maybe I should have people from Africa migrate up. Get enslaved by Egypt or whatever, and then go to Palestine?

I'm in Mesopotamia... watch out for invasions

@Redemption, alliance? We can establish a border along the edge of those mountains that define west Turkey, and I'll just push elsewhere.

[Redemption-America]

Allen's stated it a few pages ago, but IMHO, this level of planning was one of the problems in the current IC.

Everyone planned decades ahead, but when said plans were impossible due to the IC situation, then suddenly the activity level drops. The problem with too much planning is that the individual's OOC desires for the RP become more important than IC "realities," and the RP suffers as a result.

Obviously, being overly competitive and saying I HAZ BEST THINGS without doing any of the work that requires isn't good form either. All about finding a balance. I personally lean more towards free-flowing RPs (with limitations), rather than planning everything out, but we'll see how this works, I guess.

The chosen people of the lord all mighty shall never be conquered!
(I don't actually care if I'm conquered. This nation's goal will be to spread religion around all over the place.)

The other place I'mma start (two nations) is Ireland. Or portugal? Or Octtaine/Medu.2? Not sure yet, but I wanna do two. Perhaps Denmark.

I was going to start a religion too.
Do you just wanna have Crusades all over the east Mediterranean coast? :3 It'll be so fun!

Time to have my version of Judasim compete against your 'pathetic' summerian polytheism

EDIT: Jokes. But yes, we can have crusades in the future. I want this small nation to only be known for it's religion however. I wanna also start a Christianity as well.

My nation is going to refuse to participate in the Crusades, as we would believe that they are unjust.

Good to know, but you should. Especially if enemies of your religion have taken the holy land.

We don't care about the holy land in Israel.

Same, I plan to create a religion centered around Tunis.

[The JVP]

Are you all really planning stuff out? Is that not one of the reasons you lot want a restart, because things did not go as you planned?

The goal is not to pre-plan beyond the beginning of the civilization on my part.
(Northern Tunisia, interested in Northwestern Africa, Holy land=Tunis or whatever I decide to call it)
(My other goal is to make sure that nobody plans to start a war with me from the get-go)

*face palm*

Guys, just gracefully accept my version of Christianity when it comes around pls. That way Europe can be more unified and that we can have not only more issues to RP, but also more coherent and logical spread of religion instead of it being stuck by borders.

Fine, I'll let your silly Christianity into my nation if I don't detect any discrepancies.

I'll let it in, but anyone who worships it will be discriminated against.

I'm actually designing a religion for Prussia at the moment. You can go ahead and make your own religion, I'm just saying that it will likely not be adopted in Prussia until modern times, really.

This, pretty much. Except it's more like they will be tortured and killed for blasphemy...

Speaking of this, I am planning to introduce crucifixion as my nation's most popular of execution. Perhaps you could use this against the blasphemers....

I was thinking tossing them into a pit with a rare, exotic animal from the outer regions... (A lion imported from Africa, pretty much :/)
