  4. I would just like to say that this armor is more inaccurate to a high medieval setting than gunpowder

    Image result for maximilian plate armor

      (begin blog post)

       

      This is Maximilian plate armor, which was developed in the early 16th century in response to the predominance of pike-and-shot warfare. People roleplay it on LoTC because it lets their character be virtually invulnerable to enemy swords (”your thrust bounces off my gorget”). Its actual battlefield purpose, if there was any, was to stop pikes from penetrating a rider at high velocity during a cavalry charge. It was heavy, impractical for hand-to-hand combat, and very, very expensive. Lighter armor made of cloth and chainmail (with metal helmets and cuirasses to protect vital bits) would have been used by footmen, who didn’t need to worry about a pike flying into their face as they charged toward the enemy.

       

      Meanwhile, the 14th century saw cannons (towed or even handheld) used in sieges. Since the late 1200s, the Chinese had been using guns in skirmishes with Jurchen and Mongol raiders. The Mongols for their part, after conquering China, probably spread knowledge of gunpowder to Europe, Iran, and Arabia through their conquests. There’s no reason LoTC should ban the development and use of rudimentary firearms. I’d argue our setting is less accurate, and less fun, as a result of the “techlock.” 

       

      I think that synthesizing period-accurate and anachronistic elements to make our fantasy setting more fun is good, and we should do it more often. There is no reason that descendant history has to mirror real-life history. There is no reason we should strive for historical accuracy on a server with immortal elves and magic. If we race to the bottom trying to ban everything that isn’t “medieval” we’ll deprive ourselves of creative freedom. We’ll punish well-intentioned players for trying to roleplay. Repeal techlock pls

      doesn’t matter, tythus and telanir don’t want guns, so no amount of logic will give you them

      Lolnope. Cendrus was about to take up merrymoogle's ***** char's deal and swing his silver hammer at her (I am assuming you understand this ban and what happened, so I shan't explain any further). I did this because I felt it'd be out of my character's nature to think this was amoral, and then all hell unleashed and I sat here dumbfounded. I really didn't do anything perma-worthy on second thought, but holy ****.

  6. I need a female character.

      Why create a newsletter for a nation about to die? #DownWithOren. #GoDwarvesGo.

      Enjoy your server then :3

  12. LoTC isn't dead and the PvP default isn't going to happen. If this much of the community despises this change it's not getting forced on us.

      Simply saying you are the majority doesn't make you the majority lol. It just makes you look silly!

      The poll was just placed. Not everyone has seen it or voted yet. that's like holding a presedential vote for a hour and as soon as the one you want to win gets higher, closing it and saying he won lol.

      Just stop and be patient. Jesus.

  13. You look at my profile? I gut you like sheep.

      Demotheus

      There isn't any accepted lore for redstone dust as far as I can tell on the forums. I looked it up and all I got was a complaint thread that it was being used as a sort of daterape drug a while back when it had no real purpose such as that. So, do tell me how you can be addicted to that?~

      It's like huffing glue - It has nothing to do with the aphrodisiac effect, just messes with your head.

  18. Just so you know: Censorship is not the answer. All it does is shield your ego. I don't mean this to offends whoever removed my status; anyone who dedicates their time monitoring THIS forum is a saint to me.

      Hush my sweet African child here is not the place to say such. It is censored, always has been. Now cheer up, my little buckaroo.

  19. the takeaway from this highly classified drama is that if you're 20 something your social circle should not be 16-17 year olds on the internet

  20. Can we get like a mildly less annoying "DDoS protection" method? Perhaps one that doesn't cause you to lose paragraphs of work because of a Captcha?
