Soran 11 Share Posted June 13, 2012 ((Mogroka makes a point I forgot to mention. Unless the Subudai are in the Central- Eastern Hemisphere (Where Skravia is located), the only way to get to Skravia is by amphibious landing but with sea-worthy vessels or a very long march along land bridges from the Eastern most Hemisphere or the Western Mainland (wherever you are located.) If it's by sea then the attack for all intensive purposes would still be an absolute surprise and the Iron Clad in no way possible will be finished so you would not have to fight on Sea prior to a landing. In other words, Skravia would be as unprepared as it is now, no gates locked etc etc. If it's by marching through the land, a force would have to be somewhat small to be able to conceal itself and still retain an element of total surprise. Otherwise if you are going to be marching by land with a significant force word will spread fast throughout the Eastern lands that there is a armored force moving in w.e direction at the time. Which would put Skravia in some form of alertness since we do interact with many of the active independent towns through trade and the like. But than again the guards are terrible and there is no organized military force. The only thing that would change is that odds are the gates will probably stay locked out of paranoia (while remaining unmanned of course since we are terrible :P). So in order to get into the inner city you may need "ladders" of sorts or a mole on the inside to open the gates for you if that is the case. Otherwise, regardless of the outcome of this expect retaliation in the future since this is probably going to be Skravia's "Pearl Harbor". And if you know how the United States worked after Pearl Harbor..well that is how Skravia is in terms of production and support (almost to fanaticism I would think). It just needs a kick in the pants to get it moving :P Edit: Since it's by Sea then it would still be a surprise :D Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Space 2335 Share Posted June 13, 2012 No... We can shut the gates and try to keep them out. We'd see their landing crafts, and their big boat. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elrohir Sil'Siol 7 Share Posted June 13, 2012 (( The fact it's by sea interests me a lot. There are two ways I can think of that happening, one not being much of a surprise. I assume one would send rowing boats round the headland; but it would have to be a 'small' force. Otherwise one would need prober vessels, anchor up and sending out cogs, that would give the defenders chance to close the gates, so which is it, or neither? )) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Acornlad 206 Share Posted June 13, 2012 The only way you'd get there is from the sea... Right? We'd be able to rally the guards and such if so, because we could see you coming from miles out. EDIT: Isn't that less then 4 days from the time you made the warclaim, also? Or am I bad at math? Technically you could not see us from very far out, the maximum distance that a person can see is 3 miles, so depending on how fast our ships are and what time of day we come, will decide if you have enough time to rally guards.

Space 2335 Share Posted June 13, 2012 No, because it can only be either getting everyone TPed to our docks or everyone taking the S.S. Angela. We want to know in RP. The mechanics aer different. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samson Option 9652 Author Share Posted June 13, 2012 [i am confused, before I answer, I feel our method will be metagamed as Space of Aids asked 'We want to know how you do it RPly'; perhaps Im misreading this?] Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elrohir Sil'Siol 7 Share Posted June 13, 2012 I believe he means: We want to know the how you will be RPing getting to Skravia, as we don't want you to suddenly power-game onto the docks, using our own boat? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
