Mooks, just to let you know, the point of this game is role play, not in game traits or anything. Characters get influence, management and command points through their actions in this game, not traits they earn by being alive in EB.

Also, in order to fight you will have to sign up to a legion. It's too late to join one of the existing ones, but more will be made soon, and then you can join up for the legions. Meanwhile, it would be a good idea to gain influence in the Senate and make some allies.

Also stay in Rome then if you want an acedemy. It's the only city with one I believe.

Alright, im still new to this. Do you just console add the attributes or what?

[YouHaveRecieved]

Nope, we let the game decide your attributes but they make almost no difference to how you roleplay your character. If you have 1 command star you can still be a really good commander.

In-game attributes are yours to choose whether you use them in your character role play or not. Read through the posts all the in-character (IC) threads and you'll see.

You can fight against brigands in your land if you are confident that you can win the battle. Also, as I understand it is possible to 'borrow' garrison units to help you fight against brigands. But it's navarro's decision whether he allows this thing.

Doesn't that only count when you personally control that area? Like as Provincial Dictator or Governer?

I believe so.

I thought that this can be done in BtSH just like we can do it in WotB. But then again it's navarro's decision whether he allow it.

[navarro951]

I allow it just like in WoTB, just make sure me or everyone know about it so we can retrain them later

[Tiberius Claudius Marcellus]

Ave!

I am interested in joining this game. Please let me know which Avatars are available still, I'm having some difficulty discerning through all the posts.

I'd like to play a young Patrician officer if possible, highly aloof and above the day-to-day concerns of my men. My true concerns lie with the Senate! While book smart and saavy, I find the realities of a hard soldier's life physically demanding and really only a stepping stool to where I want to go.

If this character is not possible due to game mechanics, let me know. I am willing to play anything just to get in this sweet game.
************************************************
Well, he's not a Patrician; but he meets the other characteristics I am looking to play. Sign me up as Tiberius Claudius Marcellus and I'll start in any of the southern merchant/port cities, willing to help subdue the Carthaginian and Greek menace in an attempt to bring me fame and power. Carthago delenda est!

All the avaliable characters are always posted and updated at the beginning pf this thread. Choose one and post your choice here. Once Navarro confirms it, you can post in the SOT and begin posting in the Curia and other threads. Enjoy.

[navarro951]

ya one the 1st page there are the available avatars...if you dont likem ill spawn new ones!

[/Bean\]

Navarro, I think we should begin to make parties within the Curia. Kinda like a mini or early version of a house. An obvious starter point would be the desired direction of expansion. Just means that it can be a prelude to houses, which wont come to later, and it begins to seperate and group different senators. No need for seperate sub forums for each group seeing as it wouldnt be that big a scale, just I think it would make it more interesting to have groups have a go at each other.

[everyone]

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

Navarro, can you spawn a few more RGBs? I want to rejoin the game. *grumbles* gah Asina died so suddenly bsfrdgah *stops grumbling*

will "unspoiler" this when some stuff gets confirmed

[Warluster]

May I join as well? I have been playing PBM's for about 2 years now so I know them pretty well.

I would like to play as Tiberivs, but it'll be a while until he is in game, so can I have a recruitable general, meanwhile? If thats okay (I realize it will use up one character)?

[navarro951]

new RGBs coming today!

[navarro951]

THERE HERE! I WOULD PREFER IF EVERYONE TOOK BLASIO'S SON SO WE CAN GET YOU BACK SOME ROYAL PROMINENCE...SHOULD BE IN NO TIME...

[everyone]

ah well, Manivs Clavdivs Cicero for me then; though M.C. Marcellvs also looks quite tempting.
and I also realised that his name is the same as Asina's drillmaster in my stories. perhaps I shall role play him this way.

anyway there are some unfinished things that I want to complete, e.g. stories

[Il_Duce]

Cicero eh? You should brush up on the linguistic skills if one takes up that name :p Maybe you can enthrall us with fiery rhetoric in the Curia?

[Warluster]

Well Everyone, if your not going to take Marcvs Clavdivs Marcellvs I shall.

Ah, navarro, is it okay when Tiberivs comes of age that I take control of him?

[navarro951]

sure thing and welcome back

yes i will just "deactivate" so to speak your current avatar at that time.

[navarro951]

MAKE SURE ALL NEW PLAYERS HAVE THEIR SOT POST UP!

[everyone]

sure thing and welcome back

@ navarro: thanks, though it may be a while before I can control my avatar to do stuff like what Asina did; so I'll just wait and hope Legio I gets into some action quick.

@ Il_Duce: lol the problem is I'm not so much for public speaking, which is why some of Asina's lines were....odd, because I phrased them in a strange manner as I couldn't phrase them any other way.

[Kipfizh]

Hey all, as you can tell by my post count I am new here and I an really interested in joining the game. Are the avatars front page the new ones or are there any other family members free?

[everyone]

welcome to the guild! (couldn't find the welcome smilie)
on the avatars, I suppose they are, but I don't think navarro spawned any new ones recently.
anyway there are no/not many FM's, unless you're willing to wait a few weeks/months for the recently-born underage FM's to come of age; so almost all the avatars between now and sometime in the future would be RGBs

[Kipfizh]

Sorry for double post but it seems I cannot edit. I have found a fort full of RGB and I am assuming they are the free avatars, am I correct? If so I would like to choose Marcvs Clavdivs Macellvs.

[/Bean\]

Hey there. Welcome to the Org, and to BtSH. We're always looking for new members, and it has been a while since we've had some. Your very welcome to join. All the avatars on the first page of this thread are avaliable, though if you would like a new choice our gamemaster Navarro will be more than happy to produce some more.

Make sure you are familiar with the rules and FAQ, have chosen a character and had it agreed by Navarro, then you can make your SOT post and your free to join in whereever you please. While you wait for Navarro, you may want to read thrugh the posts in the Curia, to bring you up to date with all the discussions, characters and past of the BtSH Roman Republic. Remember, it's all about having fun.

EDIT: Damn you Everyone

[Kipfizh]

Sounds good. There is a fort outside of Rome with RGBs inside. Some are not on the list on the front page and I can't find the one I want in the libary. Does this mean he is free?

[/Bean\]

Dont take the saved game unless you have stated you are taking it in the Dictator and Consul Thread, and only once you have joined the game.

You can only choose one of the avatars on the front page of this thread, or you can request a completely new one be made.
