The current status of the Daravi conflict! Lithmore organized a major attack against Daravi (the protectorates) and they were able to capture some parts of the protectorates in what is now called the March of Edessa and is currently led by Cellan. As the final battle of the assault, the Sultan might...

The IC post on the rising prices of armor is in response to creating a shop on grid that has utterly absurd prices. Actual costs on makign armor and metal ores has not risen. PC merchant blacksmiths should be able to offer armor at the exact same prices, should they not decide they don't want to.

I think the most convincing argument I've seen pointed out is the closure of mages to latent being like closing down nobility. What would you all think if we just had courtiers available for new characters (non-heir, non-ducal), and they had to work with existing characters to get actual titles? Thr...

My ideal is a "capture and hold" scenario, where the PCs will either be defending against such an attack, or pushing forward and making their own attempt to claim some more territory. Could allow for open field combat, as well as fighting through a fortress or keep. I am looking at something where ...

Plans are in the works to hold a Daravi battle for which I intend to roll up NPCs for both sides and recruit players to play it out. This should serve the dual purpose of 1) a fun way to decide an actual IC battle in Edessa and 2) give people some chance to play with new combat with and against some...

With rank purchase in chargen removed, nobles are left in an odd position. Seeking makes okay sense as presenting themselves at court and being endorsed, but outside of marriage and royal appointments, there isn't really a mechanism for getting new nobles into titles through inheritance. We really d...

I don't want to muck too deeply into this. I understand sometimes people just need to get out complaints, and you asked for comments of other players not imms. However, for that poll that you posted, Jei, based on the results, contrary to public opinion would be not making any adjustments at all, wh...

I thought there was an anonymous option, though it seems to have run off somewhere. That may be something worth looking at again. However, I would like to assure you that you don't need to feel obligated with anything regarding QP. There is no expectation of returning QPs when you receive them from ...

I am very interested in hearing the opinions on how this has worked out. I know people were concerned when we rolled it out, and it has cut down on the wanton scantly RPed deaths a lot. What is thoughts on the results as well as the general policy?

Note that I'm just mulling things over, not the main decision maker on these things. Other than a few minor things, I think most of the comments boil down to, or are affected by: 1) Range is awkward 2) There's less room for strategy 3) There's not enough benefit to going unarmored if you want to mak...
