Barony of Makar these days?
« Topic Start: May 09, 2013, 12:48:00 PM »
How are things in BoM these days? Any fun wars going on? Is Sordnaz still the ruler? :p I was thinking about emigrating a char to Atamara but I haven't decided yet. I thought to give the continent another chance.

For a while there it almost ceased to exist. I am somewhat surprised that they pulled it together.

I saw on the map that they are smaller now then when I was there many years ago so that doesn't surprise me. But what is happening? War with whom? Is it still fun there? Questions like these needs answers!  ;)

BoM fragmented when Makar seceded to form Heorot.

Then Minas Leon, Talerium, and all three of the Eston fragments went to war with Heorot. Heorot bombed horribly, with BoM taking some of their lands back.

This. Heorot was formed because Ender was tired of following a ruler who didn't say much (Though I totally love Sordnaz's player, in game is gets hard to justify character wise) and fighting a war we weren't really told why we were still fighting. Enough people agreed to form the realm with the hopes of creating a more lively version of the Barony.

I dont know how much has changed in BoM since I left, but things were stagnant for the most part. Some of the people in power are the same people who were part of the group of people who sit there, say nothing except when something really spectacular happens or if they autopaused out of lordship and felt they had to have it back, and then withdraws into the shadows, so who knows if anything is going to change at this point.

Yeah, that doesn't sound too good at all. I hope it has become better but it would be nice if someone with a char inside the barony would answer too.

Otherwise, I guess I have to look at other realms. Any recomendations?

This.

This used to make me so mad as King of Eston. If one of my quiet, hardly active Dukes autopaused, came back a few days later and I so as much as THOUGHT as appointing someone else, all of their friends would jump down my throat.

Darka!

We're the last realm fighting against the unholy MiCE & Co. Join us, the last bastion of freedom upon all of Atamara!

Since I haven't been in Atamara since forever, you'll have to explain who the mice are ;)

Yes, we are many that dislike those situations. But try to do it anyway. It is the right thing to do after all :)

Not the "mice", the "MiCE". The self-proclaimed Mighty Cagilan Empire. The purveyors of destruction, the puppet masters, the enslavers of all Atamara!

More like Sirion's powerful and successful cousin.

Shame Heorot didn't last, it was actually a pretty neat little realm.

That made me chuckle, considering that Kerwin is partly to blame for their destruction.  Sure Rieleston would have likely gotten involved at some point, but Kerwin's presence in Heorot sealed (RP-wise) Rieleston's early involvement.
