Ursolon

Ever better get that lore accepted. EDIT: Although this is on a completely different matter, I think it applies here as well.

As I was told, this is just an altered Flame Resist potion. It will have that orange color when it is crafted.

Tiazar, those are way too easy to make. The experience required to get fire aspect five is much harder to obtain than fie measly diamonds. With that recipe, I could have.... 15 swords, capable of arming a small army.

Wine.

"What are ye talkin' about lad?"

I placed it in the active claims. Mogroka still has to give the final verdict. Until there is a post by him that says "Accepted", the battle will not happen.

As for the land needed to connect the regions, if need be we can purchase the 25 or do blocks in between the two regions from the monks. The Mallowyn woods belong to them after all.

I don't really want all of the woods... As for the Nawari, I had came into their TS channel and warned them that a war claim may be up for their camp soon, this was a couple weeks ago. However, that was when I didn't play a major role in Ursakar. Now... Lugar ( Balian ) still wants the Nawari camp, but as long as I am here, I won't let that happen. There is a difference between this single building which houses an inactive player and an entire culture that revolves around being independent. As long as I can help it, the Nawari will not be attacked by Ursakar or the Duchy of Norjun. Mallowyn is a beautiful biome. Again, as long as I can help it, they won't be claimed by Ursakar or Norjun. Please don't use these assumptions for your defense, they're not helping you.

I said I wanted it to be a watchtower because I didn't want to have people metagaming our plans for the tunnels. Between the tower's region and the region I have perms to, there is roughly a 25 block gap. Something can be done about this. I added more RP for our reasoning because Mogroka requested it. If you had read it, you would have noticed that the mob is shouting about legends and stories. Not that they have seen her mending the garden on sunday afternoons. Superstitious peasants combined with ill tidings will cause very drastic actions to be taken. I've also said that the tower is in a wonderful locations because, should we connect all the tunnels, it will create a square. Linking the tower, the ruins, the Great Hall and the keep in Ursakar ( Which is to become the military barracks ). Someone said "Build it 20 blocks to the left!". Rules state that a region cannot exist within a certain number of blocks of one another. 20 blocks is too close and going 100 blocks out will defeat the purpose of the watchtower aspect ( Again, this doesn't mean sitting atop it waiting for someone to come by. It can serve as a barracks for a few bannermen and be a way to intercept them in the woods, rather than in the town. )

Apologies, we just seem to be going in circles. It's quite frustrating.

Well, I'll make this short, sweet and simple. It appears that about 5 of you apparently had some hidden love for this godforsaken tower that you never, ever, spoke of. You complain about how it's not fair and it's mean. Well, wake up, nothing is fair. You think Salvus enjoyed being slapped into the Nether by an army comprising of 90% of Asulon? I don't think so. I'll say it again, for the... well 5th time now. We will NOT destroy the tower. Of the five of you pouring your hearts onto this war claim, only 2 of you will really be affected by it changing ownership. The REAL OWNER of this tower doesn't even care enough to come voice their opinion and I have been told that she's been inactive for the past 2 weeks. This tower... This damn tower... Let it go. It will be ours.

Well before I answer your questions, I have one for you: Did you even READ the other 500 posts by me? I've said "WE WILL NOT DESTROY IT" far too many times. I'm done restating the reasons for this war claim. I've had enough.

I tried to discuss giving it up without this war claim with Ever but he simply told me that neither he nor the real owner would give consent.

Well, Brokencrowe, you're right, it is just a home for a few people. However, if you look at the conquest claims on other cities, towns, and villages, most of the time it is to remove them. Thus, destroying the homes of players. So, essentially all conquest claims are a "little more than unfair." Also, as I've said again and again and again, we're not only in it for the fact that it's a tower in the woods. We'd like to create a square, connecting Ursakar to the Great Hall, the hall to the ruins and the ruins to the tower and finally, linking the tower to Ursakar. Creating a network of paths allowing the noble family to move freely without having to deal with whatever is going on up above.

A verdict has not been given.

A War Claim Team Member and/or Mogroka can give consent. Over ruling the defender. If war claims required the defender's consent, they wouldn't be required at all. The two parties would just make a post in the role play section that depicts what happened between them.

What was Salvus? You think that an entire nation doesn't hold sentimental value to the players? With this argument, I could say that it's just a building in the woods. The building has been completely inactive for at least the past to weeks. Not until I put up this war claim have all these bleeding hearts revealed their supposed love for the building. Also, everyone seems to keep claiming that we are going to 'destroy' and 'dismantle' the tower. I've said, well this is the third time now, that we will not alter the outside.
