The problem about re-writing lore is that,
I have no idea what I am doing, and I have
no idea what to write. Anyone got any tips?

Thanks in advance.

I use Obsidian now. Might post it here if I'm done or something, I dunno.

That's fine. How about some basilisk riders? They ride these majestic eight-legged lizard-like creatures... that stone anyone they look at within 30 feet. They need special blinders to be used effectively... but when they are facing directly at the enemy, the blinders are lifted.

I think I already have a few placed at Civurgrangten in the 5th Cavalry Division. They're outnumbered by the easier to train War Boar brigades, but still. 5,000 basilisks are still 5,000 things that can turn you to stone.

Yeah, I'm not trying for one-shot things either. Biggest ship possible? What happens when it is taken out?

I mean, sure, there's some insane stuff living in the Wartorn Realms, but I'm trying to at least remain consistent.

Any idea where the thread maker disappeared to?

If I'm correct, The Imperial Federation has some puppet nations that he's focusing on. I don't know if he's still playing this RP, but I don't think it'd hurt to contact him about it. If you want, I'll ask him about it.

CING, may I ask something?

I want to know (a very brief summary) of what weapons you have in Civurgrangten that would screw up my black ops cultists badly.
"Just nod and go with it."
Okay. Let me say a few things.

1) Apathy most certainly does not use NS stats.
2) I, God-Emperor Damien Quartz, is a human Eldritch Abomination.
3) Apparently the sig was too big, so I cut 98% of it.
4) Apathy is as chocked with bull as Hammer Britannia. Why? Because we were based off of them!

I have a question, too. Can the basilisks' stone gaze still affect those who look at their eyes indirectly? Such as cameras, mirrors, and/or other mediums of reflection?

It can, through the use of basilisk blood. Otherwise, it is permanent. It is possible to resist though (but very difficult), and there are a few things that would be immune to the effect. I'd have to look those up, though.

Please call us "the Holy Empire" ICly, unless specifically referring to our primary ruling state.

Tier 3 Level 9 Type 9; a power 13 civilization according to this
PT/FanT - don't underestimate us just because we're PT, the FanT is strong with this one.

Yes our leader has a long title. No, that is not a self-appointed title, nor by choice. It is of political significance; excluding even one part of the title could lead to revolts.

This nation does not represent my actual views. Anyone who thinks otherwise can talk to our friendly inquisitors.
Medieval-esque politics meets colonization meets early firearms meets high magic meets eugenics meets early chemistry meets humorism that actually works meets trenches (because Fireball go brrr) meets 8 million crusades meets cosmic horror.

I just had an idea. Would it be alright if I had the Decepticons weaponize some Cybertronian wildlife and use them in battle, and then some wildlife escape and then start to wander around the Wartorn Realms and start multiplying?

A link to a category of Cybertronian wildlife can be found here.

Maybe.

Okay, so anywho... yeah, three superpower nations exist in the Wartorn Realms. CING is one of them. The Holy Empire of Caligolus is another. And the Cult of War is the last. All of them hate each other and have been at war for damn near forever.

Make allies with them if you will. Fight them off as well if you need to. :P

Okay. If the thread leader does not want to continue this, but everyone else does, I could take over. If everyone wanted.

You know I'm more active, for the most part. Or at least I try to be.
