Noble Sons II- Price for Peace pre sign-up and discussion thread.

I like the old map better.

Strangely I feel this game is continuesly turning into a game of risk, now with the map and all that.

It is the old map... just with the tenting at 100 % opacity.

i assume this is one of my units.

If you'd like. I was playing around with your flag, and I stuck it on the front of some samurai armor.

Hehe... the Theocracy that seceded from Beefydom is bigger than Beefdom

Hmm, well if you're unhappy with the size of your land mass, I can go in and reedit it before we start.

[Yoyoma1910]

Also, if you count the amount of squares with land in them, you'll see most factions have almost the same. The two Island have more squares, but lass land, I have the most land squares, YLC has the second highest, as he came in second during the last game (and had a faction member who survived), and Beefy's kingdom has less than other land factions.

Updated my faction description!

1. The Aresea Confederacy - Sea Based Army
2.
3. First adapted to the sea, we live in the large merciless oceans of the West Of Noble Sons land for generations, we became the first to develop naval technology because of are advantageous position are keen wit and wisdom of our elder Fish, recently we have adapted to land and now field land based army and naval technology, are galley's are huge and are mounted upon small whales for easy maneuvering, speed & morale depleting when faced against a coward like enemy! We were always the smallest of nations previously, but with our holdings on what was desolate land we now field one of the largest kingdoms in the whole field of noble sons land!
4. We were growing are technology, breeding it perfectly, the production of a massive warship powered by 6 million cod had been finished, and mercenaries hired in case we were attacked, but luckily we never got deeply involved in the conflicts of other petty kingdoms, allowing us to expand undisturbed, however with all nearby holding now occupied by others violence may, for the first time be a realistic consideration.....
5. Adapting giant sharks and dolphins to hold a sword, or hold a pike and fight for our nations honor!

Galleys - Best navy out of all kingdoms, truly a force to be reckoned with
Swordsmen & Pikemen - Given to truly fearsome fish, but lack the diversity and numbers to match more established land based powers
Cavalry - Non existant & laughable, we have sharks instead! much more efficient....
Archery - We gather Small Tunas with the agility and speed to fire with great prowess, however there size means they can only hold small bows meaning while incredibly agile and accurate are archery isn't particularly powerful

Well I can only stay around for 15 more min as I did nearly no work yesterday and I plan to do some today.

I'll update what I can and get this on a roll

Again, huge thanks to Yoyoma. I think we'll use the old map as we can see the grid a little better.

As for White_eyes.. I'll keep you in for now. If you decides that you can't play, your kingdom becomes neutral and under my countrol

[A Very Super Market]

Can I sign up as a back-up for White Eyes?

[Beefy187]

Can I sign up as a back-up for White Eyes?

We got Greyblades as well. But if he retires, or if someone other then White_eyes retires then sure

Thanks for the offer

[taka]

is the army composition needed?

[Beefy187]

You can post it here or pm me.

You don't have to follow that format I posted on the first page but you can choose like YLC.

Its just for role playing and changes battle outcome.

And don't make it over powered by using tanks or riflemans. Keep it 1400s.

EDIT: if you don't ill just assume that your infantry based.

*ahem* I rethought my army slightly, so a few changes to make it more clear

Clockwork Shocktroopers - The height of the Consulates technology, Clockwork Shocktroopers are impressive, gear and steam driven, heavily armored soldiers wielding mighty Zweihanders or Warhammers, able to cleave a relentless path through any army. Designed to be easily serviceable, Clockwork Shocktroopers have limited flexibility on the battlefield and although tough to destroy, they are very predictable. Because of their metal construction, current Clockwork Shocktroopers easily rust and seize up in the rain. Clockwork Shocktroopers lack awareness or a sense of fear, and thus never retreat, never surrender, and give no quarter.

Consular Marines - The only true professional troops the Consulate employs, Marines are career soldiers who employ the Sabre and Longmusket. Armored in the finest half plate, Marines are a force to be reckoned with and are the backbone of Consular armies. Trained never to retreat, Marines have superior morale and discipline.

Consular Guard - Citizen of the Consulate must sign up for partial military service to receive any government aid, allowing for a large reservoir of semi-professional soldiers. The Guard are equipped in either half plate or brigandine, and wield either pike or crossbow, all of which is provided by the Consulate. Guard morale is about average, but they are highly disciplined.

Yak Lancers - Citizens from the rural regions are recruited, along with their Yaks, directly into the military as Yak Lancers. The Lancer are well trained in the use of the Yaks as cavalry, ramming home with Lance or the Yak's horns itself. Equipped with half plate or brigandine, and carrying lance and sword, Yak Lancers are usually better trained and more motivated then the Consular Guard.

Yak Artillery - Artillery has become an integral part of the Consular armies, which is usually totted around my Yaks for mobility. Quality and type of Artillery is subject to vary, usually either Catapults, or if from the capital, new Cannons.

This okay Lord Beefy?

[Beefy187]

I'll look them all later

I'm about 50 min over the time I said I'll start working

[White_eyes:D]

Just make mine a Steppe based-army....I don't want this to be TOO complexed....

[Beefy187]

Just make mine a Steppe based-army....I don't want this to be TOO complexed....

Aye

I'm doing the pm starting from who joined first (Ares)

I just finished Yoyoma so 5 more to go.. I'm off to lunch now though

If you havn't sent me the what army you want, you don't have to rush. I need it before the first night though.

It might be a good idea to keep it a secret just incase people wants to invade you

Good luck my rulers

[Yoyoma1910]

On the main thread, you don't have Reenk listed, and he's using the rat/rabbit flag. I gave the neutral party the chicken flag, I hope that's alright.

It's twelve factions including your own.

[Beefy187]

Ah, I forgot the flag, thats why I missed him

Sorry about that Reenk, editing it now

[Beefy187]

pms done. Commencing sending.

Please do not post in the gaming thread just yet even if you get the pms

Thanks for your patience

[Beefy187]
