Updated War Rules

[Samson Option 9652]

Because the American establishment is saintly and would never dream of laying waste to another country for material gain on false pretenses...

 

What makes you think Blundermore has sinned against anyone? Because some dead people who shared a nationality with him a hundred years back colonised the Middle East? Holding him responsible is like holding all Germans responsible for Nazi war crimes, holding Muslims responsible for the mass-murdering psychos who twist their faith into a propaganda weapon, holding a South African responsible for apartheid or holding you responsible for the sins of the American establishment.

 

And you know what that's called? Racism.

 

Ask Blundermore to answer for "his" sins and I'll ask you to answer for all the school shootings that happened in America. Because the shooters were American and so are you.

 

Whoa there baby, Blunder and I are merely jostling but I can tell that UK patriotism is spilling out of your A cup bra ;) Wink Wink.

Worry not folks, Lago and I will hug this one out between two folks under the flags of our forefathers [my founding fathers are better than yours!]

Please just stop Gaius/"George Carlin".

[Samson Option 9652]

Right, forgot, folks are getting too serious over mere American redneck banter.

[The Great Mongol Khan 1110]

I still don't like the price of war. Realism is good to an extent, at a certain point it just makes things dull such as the old nexus pvp.

For those who are questioning the removal of raiding altogether, perhaps propose the option to pay a mina/resource to go raiding?

Raids don't make rp sense because of their frequency and motivation. A bunch of armoured peopled are bored lets go kill a new village and steal all their stuff. Raids are meant to weaken an enemy faction striking fear into the peasants and depriving them of resources. I would say that raids should be allowed on towns. However towns must be under a certain size and raids must be declared prior to the raid happening (It was already stated that the staff aren't doing surprise warfare so deal with it). Then the raiders must also pay the battle tithe of x gold and x food to pay their troops. Raids should also only be able to be declared by solid actual factions. Random groups of bandits should not be able to raid towns, it doesn't make sense when the town would rply have a larger population than a group of bandits (raid alts).

You'll hear that the Orcs aren't exactly going to be your Greco-Roman logical peeps though. Heck, I know the Subudai would raid because we tried to abstain from mining as we were nomads so on so forth. All Im saying is allow raids, but force the raiders to pay a similar yet lesser lump sum.

We can still raid people on the roads though right?

We don't have founding fathers because we have real history. :P

2 stacks of log for a single use treb is too much, and why use gunpowder for something that doesnt explode? How the hell do you get gunpowder anyways?

We have conquered you and I, while all others thought we were warring like Batman and Bane, they mistook mad banter!

2 stacks of logs is EXTREMELLY CHEAP. Also, trebs were EXTREMELLY EXPENSIVE to make IRL, needing skilled buildings, engineers, and lots of materials. This is a game so only part of the expensives remain. And you get gunpowder from diamonds in the Tinker's post.
