Just means your family isn't rich enough.  A few calls to the aunt and see what she has to say to you. ;)

The aunt won't send me gold anymore. After all, she is not my personal banker.

Hmm, a little too greedy there. ;)

Well, this week has certainly been spiced up. ;)

New girlfriend spicing up my nights, marching against daimonspawn in Bellua, Aurvandil just decided to throw 25k at our southern allies Barca for no apparent reason while northern diplomacies among the northern Astroists are in utter chaos and a Lord betrayed Asylon by seceeding to Kabrinskia even with Kabrinskia stating they didn't want them to(Dwilight), not to mention preparing to found a new nation/colony in Arcaea...

An exciting week indeed.

Just because I'm anal about this term, "seceeding to" is not the proper terminology. Secession is the severing of ties. You don't "secede to", you "secede from". In BattleMaster parlance, secession specifically refers to a duchy leaving a realm to form a new realm. When a region (or even an entire duchy) swaps from one realm to another, it is a change of allegiance.

Yes, I know it sounds like I'm being pedantic, and I am. At least a little. But the incorrect use of this specific terminology causes a lot of confusion, especially in reporting bugs.

Haha that's alright. :P I couldn't remember the proper term. Its like immigration and emigration, which are also commonly misused. I know there's a counter-term for secession but for the life of me I cannot remember it.

There's cession.  Where one government cedes (gives) a territory to another.  Usually by treaty.

There are also concessions.  You need a drink after such a technical discussion.

:-) Definitely enjoying my experience in Bellua! I arrived just in time to kick some Daimon ass in two of the most epic battles I'll ever witness.

Though I obviously aspire to achieve Lordship I'm taking it slow. My plan is still to become a Priest and found a comprehensive Poly-panentheistic religion, but I'm still learning the ropes of Bellua and thus taking it nice and slow.

I'm definitely here for the long run though. :-D Just readied a nice RP speech for my promotion to Marshal on another continent, complete with a new Latin motto for the army/nation. ;-) I've really enjoyed the opportunity to lead here in BM - the experience giving an altogether different feeling than the dozens of times I've led before.

Knowing that once I really like a game I'm loathe to drop it, going so far as to make it a concrete aspect of my daily schedule, I am quite aware that BM is now a digital extension of my very soul ;-)

Lets mop up those Daemonhordes and start rebuilding civilization, eh?

My only curiosity is in regard to the frequency of such Daimon invasions.

Tom has announced that this will be the last of the GM-led invasions. So, not sure what the schedule for the invasions will be after this. Usually there's plenty of time to rebuild and recover, then let things get interesting before the next invasion starts.

So... are you referring to future non-GM-led invasions? :)

Dunno. If Tom has decided what to do, he sure hasn't told me. But the first two invasions just turned up the monster/undead spawners to huge levels.

Oh, and frogs. Lots and lots of frogs...

Perhaps gnats and locasts will join the fray.
