I find it a bit hard to do anything since this whole, frozen being threat is so imminent and will come so soon, it just seems like that there is no other option than to fight them, like, no room for some internal strife.

Yeah, but I sort of imagined all the kingdoms to fight between one another and then all of a sudden this massive horde would just sweep through the lands, forcing the kings to unite or perish against the dark forces. Just how long until these beings will reach the Kingdoms, and I suspect that Northfall will be first?

Yes northfall is first, but they will be craving a path of desstruction in the cities before the 4 Kingdoms, which will take at around 3 months in game

Oh, okay then. So, have these kingdoms ever been united onder one banner once? Regardless, I think that there should be some sort of Landsmeet or Great Thing (Germanic) for all the Kingdoms nobles and leaders to come and discuss the state of the Kingdoms and so on.

What age is this set in? I mean, we have cannons? Also that military academy and the whole graduation thing seems rather modern. My men are fighting with swords and axes. Also, OOCly, will this Eastwind army be able to win against Northfall A. on the field B. in a siege against Northfall C. in a siege against Eastwind?

No cannon. A) Answer Good Tatics Yes, Bad Tatics No, b) Answer Maybe C) Answer No if don't have enough troops

So the artillery in the posts are catapultst? Keeping with the whole Medieval-theme. Also if Northfall was to have the best army but can still be beaten by the farmers of Eastwind, what gives?

Character Name: Julius Silverheart
Age: 19
City they are from: Nomad
Weapons: Dual steel longswords and a Katana
Magical Abilities: Silence(Offensive), Arcane Shield(Defensive), Dispel(Supportive)
Appearance: Grey hair and eyes tinted with some silver. Medium build and a height of 170cm (sorry for metric)
Profession: Mercenary/Blacksmith
Small Bio:
Julius, hailing from an ancient family of fighter-gladiators, learned the harsh way of living when his clan was murdered by unknown forces. Since then, he has been taught by a wandering merchant, the basic arts of defensive magic, by a caravan guard, swordplay, and a Westmark blacksmith, the art of metalworking. Though young, his skills are finely honed, but only at a basic level, especially with magic. Seeking to learn the arts of Imbuement, of enchanting items with magic, Julius has his share of adventures during his journey. Combining magic with martial ability is his forte, although he has learned to craft daggers and light armour for trade with other merchants.

How to be legitimately recognised in NS? Be a proper Roleplayer.
In a community where knowledge should be used to uplift the teachable and be used as an interest instead of a necessity, the arrogant abuse of knowledge is interesting to watch.

Yeah, but Northfall was renowned for it's amazing architecture and army. However it has a shortage of food that the other states do not have because of the larger army and poor agriculture, nor has it good trade to increase wealth or any mines to gain natural resources.

Well, sure. However that seems rather, odd. Seeing as our food supply is very low and so there wont be much food in the granaries, not much to take, and B. You would leave your army distracted raiding empty granaries whilst your enemies could raid your capital. You can sit back in your city with your army and wait for spring, you would not gain anything from attacking Northfall. Northfall however needs food, as it and Southfall would be those who have the least amount of food I'd suspect. Northfall has two choices until spring comes. Either sit and wait and probably starve or try and get food somehow. Discounting the imminent threat of the frozen beings.

Very true. An offensive by Eastwind would be rather pointless. Matter of fact, considering that a moving army eats more than a stopped one, any offensive during the wintr and with short food supples is rather foolhardy.

But you must remember this, Eastwind is a trading Kingdom as well as a farming one. We have been at a constant war so we can get to the cities up north for trade, and since the water is frozen over we can't sail there
