I'm starting the steps toward securing the nearby area. Pireius to the southwest will be next after Decelia.

[G-Tech Corporation]

I can't believe you've done this...

Eh?

How would Viktor know about the war?

Just the slow flow of information via travelers.

Eh?

They were making British/chav jokes so I did this

[Yatzatz]

What do you mean, "Christian herecy"? That's a tautology. Christianity is heresy.

A pleonasm, then?

Christianity is heathen at best.

From the Wikipedia article on Pleonasm:

Such redundancy is, by traditional rhetorical criteria, a manifestation of tautology.

A pleonasm is a type of tautology.

[Yatzatz]

So a UN?

Oh, yeah. We start every session by randomly distributing veto powers. Then, we give each leader another nation to represent. Then, we all bring a national alcoholic drink.

And are too late to do anything even when the members aren't randomly vetoing stuff. And have a disproportionate focus on criticizing nations that are doing extremely well human-rights-wise compared to countries that are torturing their citizens daily.

So a UN?

So like a Illuminati Shadow Council?

Definitely more Illuminati than UN.

[The Orson Empire]

Ulls, I imagine the capital is pretty much fucked at this point. Regardless of who wins, thousands of people are going to die in the flames, as well as from mob violence.

I will write more about the second army and their attempts to storm the outer walls tomorrow.

There is a navy response coming from Third Thunder to provide relief but I think this maybe a stalemate until then.

How many troops are coming?

And I will probably be pulling all of my forces out of Ego soon. The entire city is going to burn down, and if the second army can get some gates open, then the first army can escape and we can move away from the capital.

A good couple thousands, those to try and control and provide relief to the city. Then the government will rally and battles can happen.

Thousands? Exactly how many?

If Ego only has a population of 100,000 at least, how can the government sustain such a large army?

Sorry, a few hundred. Then battles will happen all over.

Wasn't it having immigration among the past decade or so?

G, I had an idea. The Lore thread failed because people weren't posting; so maybe create a new Lore thread, but have just two or three people making entries on each nation and what's going on. Do you think that would work?

Hi I'm not G, but that's too much work for people who didn't make the said nations. I'd personally recommend just lengthy character bios, since this isn't a nations rp but a character rp.

An Author's bio is pretty much a detail of what they've done and how they've expanded their world since they arrived.

For new RPers the countries matter more than the people.

Sounds good to me, but I think Yatzatz's point was it's difficult for people to know what to type about. Take note for me to post I prefer not to screw up and that slowed me down immensely. I find the "screw it and write" method best where the leader nation simply reads and tells you what corrections to make. The main issue is writers will notice information holes in the hosts nation that he didn't think about originally, and explaining them would slow them down. Even with an updated lore page it didn't solve the issue.

True, but that would just be a "general lore" kind of thing, better handled by G or one of the earliest other players who are still here. It's not really important that they know that the Imperium has plans of creating steam ships and sailing to the Galapagos.

Then perhaps a general FAQs or Getting Started? section on the OP would be better.

[The Holy Dominion of Inesea]

I mean, every faction could write a little blurb about that faction, like an expanded version of the OP.

A FAQ could be constructed, getting started can be constructed although would be best having multiple sources, and having lengthy charactaer backgrounds wouldn't be bad either.

Perhaps I'll compile the list of questions noobs typically ask, and send them to G if he agrees to this. I think it wouldn't fill up the page too if it's spoilered.

On the Getting Started thing might be more difficult, but not impossible. If we can get multiple suggestions and assistance from the other RPers I bet we can make a decent getting started guide.

The lengthy character lore idea is actually really good that is if we spoiler it, so it doesn't fill the screens a lot, and could be placed in the app to let people know more about them other than appearances.

I mean, every faction could write a little blurb about that faction, like an expanded version of the OP.

True, but those lores tend to be heavily detailed. G spent a good time writing his up and I'm about to construct a civ and I don't want to go through that
