Seize the Throne [Open/OOC/Fantasy]

[Elysian Kentarchy]

I don't write simple RP posts. No, those are for peasants.

I write novels.

I'm still writting an overview of my sub-state, and so far it's with 500 words,But guess what.

I haven't even started to tell the history of my "House"

I'm still describing the royal palace.

I'm at about 1000 but probably half of that (so far since it isn't done) is more or less the conquering of the place and the monsters. And another 200 of that is just involving the burning of witches. I had a long bus ride yesterday so plenty of time to work on it.

I finished the overview, but i wonder if i should just post it and then write up the history of my land later. I don't exactly have as much time, and i think it'd be good to see if V O I D is cool with the thing i'm going

Lord Sovereign Pearce is finished.

Lord Sovereign Pearce is finished.

Ormata, this is a medieval fantasy setting. Why are you already having guns and artillery like you're the Empire from Warhammer

At best, the most advanced parts of Gaia would have some Arquebusiers, but smoothbore Musketeers and Jaegers? Come on..

I'd agree. We're looking at 19th century stuff in an RP which I would say is at the latest (and that really is the latest) 18th century, more likely earlier.

[Ormata]

Wait One, then.

EDIT: Right then. As it was stated technology in the advanced regions can get up to 1700s, I will state the following:

"The very first true flintlock firearm was developed by Frenchman Marin le Bourgeoys who designed it for King Louis VIII. Flintlock muskets, pistols and rifles were the mainstay of every European and American army from 1660 to 1840."

Other sites corroborate this.

This is not 19th century technology.

18th Is still too much. In my opinion, the best would be Late 15th-Early 16th Century

It wasnt stated up to 1700

Last time i checked Void said that the most advanced regional were around colonial, but he didnt specify

Eh... While I'd be inclined to agree with you, the 18th Century really was the wind-down of the Colonial Era, so it could be included within the parameters. Though I'd agree, 15th-16th would be far better in that regard, with matchlocks just being introduced and still in sparse supply.

My statement on the 19th Century was largely based on the presence of Jägers, though upon reading, the very first Jägers were introduced in 1631. However, they came to prominence in the 19th Century, and in the numbers you have there, I still feel very confident in my estimation.

OK. Cool. It was stated that technology is limited to period. It was not stated that doctrine was limited, nor the application of weaponry in new and different ways. As the first Jaegers were introduced in the acceptable time period and Gwallawg is very, very forward-thinking, I would consider it possible.

Ranging tactics, as were common in the Jäger regiments in Europe around their rise to prominence, tended to be predicated on the usage of long-range rifles (thus their equivalent phrase 'rangers'). I don't have the final say, but I would advise you to err on the side of caution in period estimates.

Yes, but you cant realistically use those doctrines with the earlier equipment. Jaegers with Arquebuses would be useless. Furthermore, you claim to have armed your entre army with fireweapons, which is Impossible at this time

Their use of long-range rifles is kept, in part due to magical runic inscription. Thank you for the advice.

Other than that, any thoughts on Elvish Burnin' Sherman?

Lookit that, the reason why you don't use Arquebuses for long-range stuff. Neat. I'm going to say that the 370 years Gwallawg has been alive he's been, you know...tinkering and fostering the invention of new weapons. And yes, yes I can claim that and I do. I can claim that when other people are pulling Mythril out to gift people, when Dragonborn suddenly happen, when damn Fish-people have a city. Because it's fantasy.

You don't seem to understand that If he did develop such and if he was able to mass produce It, the level of technology would have evolved with It. If VOID says that the most advanced regions have near colonial tech, then unless he says otherwise you're going to goddamn have near colonial tech

I do have colonial tech.

You are still ahead of what Void has stated is the highest tech level on Terra.

You have tech from the 1700s.

We're talking about the 1400s and 1500s, you asinine meme

[Union Princes]

Skarten is not wrong. You have tech so advance that its impossible for an elf to possess them. The church in Terran Empire is #HumanityFirst and they wield a lot of political power.

They won't allow your character to have such weapons without equipping the Imperial Army first which the Imperial Army is still using melee weapons and bows.

[Barratistan]

I see many of us got affected from the shutdown, no matter. I myself would try to post within the weekend.

Dude, really if you want to be part of this, just go with what OP states. There is no reason to be so confrontational and stubborn, especially considering that it really is only making people less inclined to take your side in this argument, as it is making you across as a child.

If V O I D says that the highest tech level is around the 1400's early 1500's, then just restructure your app to fit that. I mean, we got immortal vampire soldiers running around, so if you cant find a more interesting and fitting way to create this character for this rp other than giving them guns (which would simply make your characters to OP) then that's more a testament to your lack of creativity than to us trying to tell you no.

Immortal vampire knights as that they have at least a century of combat experience if not a millennium. Some Vampires that are currently alive are veterans that served under Drakula von Krieg, the first Night King.

Even Morr Grimm is 133 tears old and he started slaying bandits ever since his father died when he was just newly knighted which is like 17 or 19 years old.

What mounts would Vampires ride on since I doubt normal horses will be willing to let an unholy creature ride on them?
