An insight into the thinking behind phase seven will be announced soon.

So, I hate to be the one to troll, but about how much time will you think there be inbetween each phase? Or is it unplanned.

Toll!
Anyway... My banner will not be called by anyone else I bet so it's fine but... Is it that only knights and above may call for banners or is everyone entitled to one? Also, how will alliances work? Will there really be more medieval-styled conspiracies, sabotages, murders and all the other thrill and excitement that there was behind politics? Also, will the world of politics be more... politic-y? As in, the knights, lords and radiants alike all fight to become the most powerful and have the most say in the world... I know for sure I shall be the one keeping quiet, on the edges of the world, living in a small fortress that offers home and shelter to anyone in need. However, the world of politics has always interested me and so, if there is such world finally being implemented, I will be sure to have a go...

I also think that the people who became donators before the exodus should be known as "The old nobility" who will have a little bit more say then the new ones in the world affairs because of their family's age.

Oh... Nearly forgot to say something about the plan itself *facepalm* I relly like this, and I will be sure to fight back against the evil *spits* Queen_Grief...

oh yes!

Everyone is entitled to design a sigil and name for their house. Unless you reside in a city or town then you must all be one family or in alliance with that family. And of course a family has to have a motto ;-)

But don't hold me to anything - its all a bit up in the air and lots of details need to be looked at. Its an exciting idea but we have lots of phases to get through first and lars will probably be annoyed with me for creating more work.

 

[DeadPress]

Conspiracies, sabotages and murders are a common occurance in Protaras i just hope the new breed of travelers to the new lands can handle the storm that is approaching.

House Saeradan of Tauredal shall hold the Silver Crown!

"A Saeradan always plays dirty"

"A Saeradan always plays dirty"

*traumatized*

In all reality though, I think our words will either be "The Bough that Bends Survives the Storm" or "Our Roots Run Deep"

 

[MRPolo13]

Pfft Fine! Be that way! Lord Polo Therion (pronounced Theerion) and his familiy shall win thy crown! Weather by diplomacy, or by force...

 

[Mrbubbles1951]

in which phase are we allowed to build our first creation because i have my build ready and waiting

 

[MRPolo13]

Any discounts on new towns? ^-^

This is the most exciting bit of news since I learned about the new map.

Will we have minor houses/bannermen? And will there be a plugin to support this? (like a factions plugin or something similar? Just to help group people?)

 

[MRPolo13]

Or let's make the houses and families sooo terribly mixed up that, at one point, they'd look like medieval times (hundreds of different families )

Need for houses (families) to have a backstory/approval?

 

[cherbert]

Need for houses (families) to have a backstory/approval?

Backstory/History would be good. If you keep them generic Medieval/Fantasy and you don't go outside the realms of the new core races (to be announced) then I see no reason for approval/moderation.

Perhaps it would be a good idea to see people design and use their sigil as their avatar to show allegiance to their house/family. But I wouldn't want everyone having one - existing towns and cities who currently show loyalty to each other should join forces to form a house. The idea is that the city is made up of a family and loyal servants and other general population who swear allegiance to that house.

With the new projects system people will be able to have homes in multiple towns or cities thus why it would be prudent to suggest only towns & cities who are in alliance with your house allow you to establish a home in their city. But I don't think I need to spell that out - I'm sure you won't allow enemies to infiltrate your city.

I was referring to Polo's post; I already have a partial backstory up (wood elf)
Our sigil will be a curling golden vine on a field of green >

Gah, so excited to see this. Can't think of a single thing that I could possibly want to add to the server now

I know lol. I think Polo was implying that there would be too many houses if minor ones were allowed

 

[MRPolo13]

Yeah that's what I meant... Minor houses should be allowed but what I meant was that in medieval times (I know too much >.<) there were sooo many houses at one point nobody knew about most of them
