Okay, and how do we make IC posts? How long? How many? What's involved?
Edit: Apparently Kudzu is edioble, and the way to get rid of it, its roots could make for more food. Apparently it's roots are like potatoes, leaves spinach. You can also make jellies out of it. I could probably sell this shit! Better, use it for agriculture while we still have and are getting it away from the area!

Quick question, how large would NPC bandits be? Is it sort of up to whoever encounters them first?
Not looking to just eliminate threats by saying they have 2 guys with sticks but I'm just concerned if I have to rally my entire army every time I encounter hostile NPCs rather than just sending a group of 100 guys or so.

Ohhhhhh! Okay! I get it! Thank you! Oh, as far as the ungodly amount of stuff Inhave planned, that's why we have God on our side.
I suppose I do have a lot to address.

Same goes for NPC survivor enclaves.
I'd kinda want to know about them a little more beforehand before I raid them to ensure I survive the cold in the north.

Accepted, although maybe change the guns to be post-Collapse rather than pre-Collapse?[/quote]

To be fair, there is a tribe that has like 7x the amount of guns I have.

Look in the IC and see what other people are doing, use a bit of a merger of the various formats or something you like and then detail out a few paragraphs about what you are doing in your Kingdom. Using 3rd person is the most advised as it is a bit of an unspoken standard but if you use 1st person that's fine, otherwise you can simply detail out an event within the kingdom and how they are dealing with their crisis or you can have a bit more fun with it and do what I did and develop the characters who help run the government and whatnot.

Not gonna lie, I thought the groundhog image for the Groundhog cult was Godzilla for a second.

Anyhow, onto real question. Would the telegraph be part of pre-collapse technology?

That's literally a 'noxious weed' and an invasive species in your area. Using it for agriculture means all other plants would be screwed, literally. That'd upset the natural ecosystem, as native plants would most likely be displaced or entirely killed due to the spread of Kudzu. This would lead to issues with the animal population, as I assume some of them eat plants (And would not want to eat the Kudzu), which would start to kill off your herbivore population. This would then kill your predator population.

I do not think you should use this.

Also, Grestin, the map doesn't seem to have been updated with Pacific County as part of St. Helens. I don't want to nag or anything, but if you had simply forgotten to do it is there any way you could add it?

Allow me to point out that most modern rifles don't have an effective range of that. The Remington 700 has a maximum effective range of half a mile. Somehow you have a post-collapse firearm that rivals the 'cream of the crop' bolt actions from the late 80s to today.

Good no, we wouldn't use it for agricultural. Just all the vine we get, we'd use anyway we can. I know it's effects, and we're working to stop it, but we'll use the vine once it's dead. The edible parts of course. The friendly tribes thought us a thing or two.

That is not how that works and how are you stopping it? You have yet to post in the IC and it lasts till March.

Sitting in the north and being snowed in.
Pretty much unable to go raiding unless my men turn into Polar Bears.
Food running low.
Damn, the situation is bad.

So my first post is going to involve a battle with a nearby tribe and possibly expansion (considering we've avoided all four crisis, we're in good enough shape).

Noted. Your king knows quite a bit on this plant, oddly enough, and he must be quite hands-on to be the person informed about such...infestation. Vines growing on vines sounds like something a provincial authority, at best, deal with. Interesting.

Yeah, my first post will probably be about some tensions with other tribes. Texas is surprisingly looking like a good climate.
