If BattleMaster ever has as many Dutch players as it now has total players, Tom might be willing to consider something like that.

I'd give them their own island as long as it was a 1-character island like Dwilight and a requirement that they have characters on other islands. That way they wouldn't be their own fraction of battlemaster.

For example, in order to join the Dutch island the player must have at least 1 active character on another island. It may bring more players into the game - which we all want to have happen

I'd love to loot Ibladesh city. Again. Oh, those were fun times, camping Ibby city for four days, stealing all their tax gold from that rich city. That was some fun looting.

I wasn't around for that. Didn't you get wounded in the last battle where DoA/Ibladesh finally pulled out a win?  I wouldn't mind seeing the innards of Perdan, too

Wiki / Coolest Page You've Come Across?

I've been searching around the wiki for those secret-cool pages that I've heard are around. I'll pull out a few to share in a few moments but I'm curious to hear about what other people have found?

Whether or not the allegations about SA are true, it makes for exciting roleplay and rouses up players. Caerwyn was starting to get a little slow... Too much peace? Too much boredom!

Exactly what I was thinking. Dwilight needed a big conflict like this to spice things up.. I mean hell, it is BattleMaster

Male nobles always go to the whore houses for a partner

Marriage is very infrequent in the game, usually because there aren't enough female characters and no one I have found is willing to go through an RP to get there.

It's usually a solo-RP if anything - it's hard to get other players to RP with you

There just isn't enough RPing in the game, though I myself have been lagging at it recently as well.

I'd like to try it, though I am also new. I'd also want one of the later years as it would give me a good month or so to figure out the game before it's my actual turn. To sign me up for last place and hopefully the fort won't have been destroyed by then.

Caligus and Ibladesh continue fighting in their silly war until DoA is dead, and Perdan joins in for the fun of taking Ibby City.

I want to see those battles  DoA would join Ibladesh, boosting their strength up to 90-100 nobles. Considering Ibladesh has over 3,000 gold every production a lot of militia could be stationed there if it came down to it. I'm looking forward to the epic battles. Like all of Caligus and Perdan vs Ibladesh and DoA (if they are still around).

Oh yeah, we were kind of already on a war path and she just gave us the extra push, pretty much.

Though I wouldn't be surprised if there was some OOC discussion about what to say to Caerwyn in order for us to initiate a war. I'm fairly positive that the informants who told us the same thing had no connect in-game.

I'm not mad anymore but for a newer-ish player it was somewhat annoying that the reason was OOC. And your answer sounded a bit fishy. So no I didn't believe you.. but I'm not willing to put that between us as players. I'm a pretty easy going player myself and I apologize for my rude comment that was originally taken the wrong way.

I mean who really enjoys being duped for a their 2nd ever lordship with an OOC reason? Just laying down the facts

Fontan will soon be reduced to a single duchy. Krimml is burning right now. Funny thing is allies of Fontan are just watching lol

It is really too bad, it will only be the downfall of them (Fontan's allies) as well. We thought about helping fund Fontan's war efforts but can't really do it with our current situation.

Why go to PeL for colonization? In Madina, a citizens right to colonize is written in the very constitution! all you need is your liege consensus.

Very interesting! I'll that in mind when or if the time comes. Though the reason I would choose PeL is because they are closer to Shinnen and Swallowwown.. perhaps even Balance's Retreat while Madina is quite far away from it all.

Isn't that what you said when it started too? Meanwhile DoA is getting kicked around and Ibby isn't exactly making a hell of a lot of progress, considering the initial advantages they held over Caligus.

Maybe so, but appearances can be deceiving. DoA may look pretty well deprived right now but it would only take a few days of Perdan's absence for them to pop back up. Being a theocracy, DoA and Ibladesh are able to stay of their feet longer than other realms would have. Thought Perdan's infiltrators are mad annoying. Makes for a great war in a variety of aspects!

I saw it. I think it was too much to ask for as the realm who is losing in that war.

Well SoA is starting to lose more and more regions, Fontan's capital just got run over by Sirion, Westmoor has had little interaction, Ibladesh fends off Perdan and Caligus while DoA tries to stay alive. Obsidian Islands does their own little thing. Now straight up, without any passion for the realm you're rooting for, what do you think will be the outcome of these wars?

Mine:
Fontan dies.
SoA dies.
Westmoor finds peace.
Sirion wins and creates a colony or two.
Obsidian Islands does their thing.

Caligus will lose Isadril and Hamadan,
Perdan will either consume the Castle Ubent duchy or the Aix duchy or both (meaning DoA will die),
Ibladesh will stay alive and create a new colony in Isadril/Hamadan?

The last three are up in the air. I doubt any of the three major realms will completely be destroyed but their shape will change for sure. Probably a short cease-fire or something until one side breaks it and then we'll go to war again. Who knows, it's all up for discussion
