The world according to the Royal Pontic Satrapy of Ankyra / A Pontos midgame story

[Quirinus Kuhlmann]

Hello everybody,

since I finished my Koinon Hellon Story on the old EB 0.8 built, the game proceeded incredibly and I kept playing it with joy, though I was not active on the forums. Now I'm going to try another one. Unfortunately I suffer from a chronical lack of time, so I probably can not update it too often. But anyway, here is the prologue:



















I hope, you enjoyed, your QK

[Chirurgeon]

Oh man have I been waiting for this!!! I reread TWATTKH and loved it for the second time!! Man this looks good. Awesome job :)

[Centurio Nixalsverdrus]

LOL! Yes I enjoyed it indeed! Reminds of Asterix.

[Dooz]

Wow... I honestly didn't think we'd ever get to see another one Q. I'm very glad I was wrong.

You still got it my man!

[Lysimachos]

That's a very creative approach you are following. I also like the skillful graphics work. Has to be a lot of work.

[MarcusAureliusAntoninus]

Good to see you're back!

[Reality=Chaos]

Lookling Good, looking very good

[Quirinus Kuhlmann]

Many thanks for the warm welcome back to all of you guys!
Chirurgeon: You heaping the KH-story out of the forums basement for one more time finally motivated me to start over again.
Nixalsverdrus, Wonderland, Markus Aurelius, R=C and Ludens: Good to see you again too!
Lysimachos: The graphics are made up with the kind of tricky freeware "TheGimp2". I finally found a very useful step by step tutorial to make speech-bubbles with the Gimp. If someone is interested, here's the link:

Obelics: I'm truly honoured....School of Otanes, the teller? He's kind of a style-shaping roots character in this tiny literary subgenre.

Greetings, QK

PS: Out of topic: If someone is interested in the life of the real Quirinus Kuhlmann (who was a really unique and completely crazy poet and self-proclaimed prophet of the 17. century) and can understand the german language, here is an essay I wrote about him:

I have the gimp, too, but i'm a total amateur I'll surely have a look at that link. Knowledge is power and perhaps some day i'll have the opportunity to use this power

how do you see a city i have only seen them in battles

[Quirinus Kuhlmann]

You go into the city menue, look for the small button called "Settlement details"on the left side. Then in that menue there are three small buttons. One of them is called "show settlement on battle map" or something. Click that and the city will unfold.

Great start, looking forward to updates.
