RTW:BI roleplaying game: Vandal Invasion

[Braden]

Oza - I'll take the spy. Was going for a more active character but I think I'll have more fun with the spy! Muhahahhahah....

BTW - any mini-mods being used on this or is it Vanilla?

[Ibn-Khaldun]

No, it's just Vanilla. I thought mini mods will make things too complicated.

Also, if any of you don't want any of the current character then you can wait those 2 FM's. You can still take part of the Council Sessions and vote but can't become the Treasurer.

@TheFlax - If you want then you could help me with the history thread.

Sure, just tell me what to do.

[Ibn-Khaldun]

Nothing too difficult.

Each turn update the history by adding a link to battle reports and stories. Or when something interesting happens in Council give a link there. I think it's much easier to update the history when something have just happened rather than updating it during each council session.

I'm also going to keep the Library as simple as possible. Should be easier to read it and updating it this way.

Edit: Perhaps merging library and history into one thread? You updating the post with history and I'm doing the same with the library posts?

[TheFlax]

Sounds good, just wanted to make sure we were on the same page. I'll take care of it.

It might be a good idea to merge the two to avoid too many threads, then again it might make it a bit too "busy".

Whilst fighting battles etc is more exciting I want to enter this PBeM with a more RP effort and I think Oza would be the best way to do this "Decius style". *wink*

[TheFlax]

I hadn't anticipated such a desire for agents.

I'll switch to Visimar then, unless someone really wants him. This way, we can start as soon as someone picks the FH.

I picked Duva because this way I can play the game and in the same time be GM.
Having a faction leader or heir and trying to be the GM is too much work.
Especially considering the fact that I plan to start my WWI game next month.

[Lord of Lent]

I have been following you some time and this sounds interesting. I'm not sure if I'll join or not, but if I decide to, can I join later?

[Ibn-Khaldun]

Of course you can! You can take part of the game even if you don't have in-game character. Discussions during Council meetings make the game interesting and there you can participate even without an avatar.

And welcome to the Org!

Just want to make it cleat I have no problem with Braden or you playing agents, especially since I have a history of playing Princesses.

Also, I want to throw in a welcome to Lord of Lent.

TF...you never have to quantify your comments to the likes of me. I had so much success playing Decius, I think I can replicate it here for everyone...(now to research Vandals! I know very little...lol)

EDIT - it was Theodoric the Great, King of the Ostrogoths who became Emperor of Rome (King of Italy...much the same I think at the time)

[Ibn-Khaldun]

@TheFlax - At the moment one thread for both library and history is a better option. Later, when it does look like too busy we can just ask TC to brake them into two threads.

@Braden - Oza's trait description("This man has a taste for reading other people's correspondence.") made me laugh and I pictured him as a postman reading peoples mails.


One more thing to discuss: Should we play the game in a new forum or should we stay in this one?

I have no problem playing in this forum but if someone else wants to start a big game like LotR or KotF then things might get confusing(threads with the new game idea mixed with this ones threads). Perhaps TinCow could share his opinion on this matter.

[Madoushi]

I wouldn't mind taking Gildo, if no one else wants him.

[TheFlax]

This game has suddenly inspired me to buy this and this. Hopefully they will ship soon so I can post a bit about stuff I've read in the information thread. Like I did for the last two games in which I participated, I looked into clothing, but haven't found much, though I'll probably have a few images with that information post.

Also, Happy Birthday Braden!

[Ibn-Khaldun]

Happy Birthday Braden!
