I am thinking about starting up again next week and would like suggestions on a good starting point.
Realm Preferences:
* Any island except colonies.
* Any government system.
* Lots of chatter and political action.
* Potential for mobility.
* Quick access to combat (I REALLY dislike the "too little honor/prestige to do anything ambitious" sage)
* A fun environment but little to no squirrel-tail, ice-cream, drug-fun, rubber-toy silliness.
* No evil/blood-thirsty realm identities. The realm should at least believe they are doing right (Grey areas are great though)!
* I like SMA.
* Region Lords have authority over their regional resources.
* A realm with a dominant, strong religion that plays an important role in every day affairs (minus silly or drug dependent religions).
The last realm I played in was Cathay just as the big war with the Empire began. At the time the realm was just awesome and exactly what I look for. King Galiard and Duke Wilhelm were great to work with and I felt the realm did a better job of SMA than some realms on Dwilight manage. Of course, the above list is a set of ideals and I doubt any realm would be a perfect match and that is ok!
Thanks for the advice!
