@Logar - make it happen. Everyone's interested in what's happening in Ardmore.

By the way guys, if anyone missed it in realm OOC message, I'm recording all Obia'Syela roleplays (much like Dubhain player does for Luria, I figured with the quantity and quality of roleplays we have in OS it's really worth it). The link for March/April (minus Gildre party) is here: http://wiki.battlemaster.org/wiki/Arnickles_Renodin/Maura/OS_march

Well I for one would use such filter a lot and I believe it would be good to have it.

Maybe G2 can convince Fronen and Gotland that they'd be better served with their staunch allies in the much wealthier southern regions.
<turnscapbackwards>
Go, G2! I choose you!

I can't see a reason why wouldn't Fronen want Jidington, Thromegor, Bym, Eylmon and everything south from that line. Rich, perfectly defensible. The only issue would be repopulating but several ecstacy scrolls would fix it pretty fast.

Then we would have a triple perimeter (MD-Bym, Rueffilo-Irombro, Avengmil) of fortifiable regions to ward off invasion hordes and stalwart allies next door.

EDIT - btw, Rueffilo is the richest townsland region on BT, right?

It's a big realm and Grand Templar doesn't really have to micromanage. Yo can just tell them "attack Ardmore with full force at your earliest convenience" or something like that and let them decide who issues orders, when to attack, full or half-day move, scout reports, predictions, formations etc.

There are countless ways of organizing military structure in a realm. None of them really wrong, but some of them can prove to be more right for each realm. Find a way that works IC and is enjoyable OOC and bam! stuff's suddenly peachy.  ;)

YES! Especially for adventurers. So many RP groups died because they didn't had a way to communicate.

Did the Heralds became a state relligion? :(

It's sad to see but I've noticed there are hardly any followers from outsite OS. What happened to the great evangelisation? Get priests out in the world and start convertin'

Oh noes, but what with the SA military leadership? I imagine Garas pausing left a huge strategic void to fill. Is SA losing the war now? Is there any war still btw?

PS. No sarcasm. Had to point it out cause if anyone was playing with my EC character...

Well Dwilight map is pretty much a donut at the center of which Battlemaster logo would fit nicely. If only anyone in the community had half-decent PS/Gimp skills...

BM General Discussion / Re: Extended Family - The Renodins
« on: March 25, 2018, 09:19:14 PM »
Hey guys, so I figured I'll clarify a thing or two.

We (me and Renodin's player) have decided to take it one step further and not only create a character that has ties to Renodin family, but entire family branch steming from House Renodin. And that's how Arnickles Renodin came to be. It's not multiaccounting, there are two different players playing two different Renodin families (one the original and one the new one), I found nothing against it in the rules and player of the original family greenlit it all (not only that, we both kind of liked the idea). I for one am excited about all the different possibilities that come from having two families so closely related, especially since both me and original Renodin are intensive roleplayers.

Cheers.

Roleplaying / Re: Ingénue - Jarra's Bildungsroman
« on: March 25, 2018, 09:10:49 PM »
Closure - that's how ends the story of Jarra Bennet (and starts the story of Maura Arnickles Renodin).



"She died?", "She died how?", "She died and you survived?" - Regent's questions were increasing in intensity. To the last one Maura only thought 'I'd prefer I didn't' but chose against saying it.

She reached back into tormenting memories from over a year ago and winced from non-physical pain as she started telling the story:

"We were scouting south, en route from Bolkenia to Cagamir. We were just passing by the ruin of a bridge to sunken Eno when we got into an ambush. It was only a group of bandits hoping to get easy profit, they likely mistaken us for trade caravan. When they realised their mistake we've already dispatched two thirds of them and caused the rest to retreat. The fight wasn't challanging, but it was enough to distract us, enough to realize a minute too late that a greater foe scented us out. A pack of beasts not unlike wolves, just bigger and fiercer charged us. We barely had time to form a phalanx. We were holding our own but unlike us the beasts weren't tired and their feral stamina could have them going all day. Jarra looked at me, I shouted an order to pull back to the ruin of the bridge. With twenty feet of fall to the water surface behind our back we wouldn't get surrounded. It was a good plan for that situation. The fight took much longer but we had the numbers and the formation, we were set for victory. The leader of the pack was the biggest and toughest of them all, it moved on two legs. I squared off against it, the fight took all the wind out of me but ultimately I sliced off it's paws and saw it bleed out. Before the battle ended the day became a night. Seeing that we prevailed, exhausted I fell to the ground, darkness intensified further in my eyes and I felt every vein in my body pulsating. I thought we were safe. But with the night came the darkness and with the darkness came the undead. I was slipping out of consciousness in terror, trying to will my limbs to move and my body to stand... then I heard her..."

Maura clenched her teeth and took a deep breath before continuing:

"The sweetest voice of our Jarra. She said - "Don't you worry Maura, you protected me since I was just a kid, now it's my turn. We faced worse odds before and prevailed." But I knew how bad our situation was. Our ranks were thinned out and our warriors exhausted with two previous fights. And the bridge... the bridge was the worst place possible to defend against undead. The raised dead, they just push forward mindlessly, not minding our spears and swords. When I heard Jarra shout to form wedge, a spark of hope was the last thing I felt before blacking out."

She took another couple of seconds to calm her voice and said:

"A spark extinguished so violently... rays of first sun and masticating sounds awoke me. The first thing I saw was a blue glove streched out towards my face, the second thing was her beautiful pale face, calm and half-smiling to me, then I saw her dead, motionless eyes and locate the source of the sounds - a ghastly, animated corpse chewing on her ribs, her body was... she was not all there.

The undead were few by then - I killed them all. Burned all the corpses - our men, the beasts, the undead; except for her. I burried what remained of Jarra right by that bridge. I embedded a blue gauntlet on the headstone, it's unmistakable."

She held Goriad's gaze, as if deciding something, but the look she had was not fear, it was surrender. She finished her story saying:

"I know I failed her. I failed to defend her..." - she squeezed a scar where her left thumb used to be - "... I was supposed to be a shield. But I failed her more than that. She underestimated every threat she ever faced, because I let her underestimate them. Because I was always there to save her. But when I finally wasn't there, she wasn't ready for it... The fault is mine..." - she looked at the man before her and intently looking him in the eyes added - "... and mine alone."

BM General Discussion / Re: Why did Greater Xavax <Insert Action>?
« on: March 22, 2018, 03:05:55 PM »
That was before! It doesn't count :P Chester did chopped some heads off and tortured some fellas but then in the prospect of 30+ nobles going off into the world he got convinced by Joran that being a nice Chester might cause some of the poor mind-controlled Xavaxans to join south instead of north.

Then again it wasn't such a lovely idea after all. Chopping people's heads off and torturing them only to provide them with cushions, blankets and full amnesty later on is not diplomatic, it's bipolar. Nonetheless at least a couple more Xavaxans saved their heads thanks to it and a couple more got spared from banishment and possible decapitation at a later date.

Why did Greater Xavax not stay in Xavax city for an epic last stand instead of the silly anticlimactic trip north? (One that only didn't end up to be a disaster thanks to Barrett being the nicest judge in the history btw)

I love how OS developed over the last couple months. Anyone wants to gimme a short summary of bigger things? And what happened to Drakes, is Shawna still around?
