No seriously - I mean it.

You would have to work as a team
There are genuine risks
It would be a laugh
You might mke some new friends

Good idea

B^F was around 50 active members with around 100 characters at one point last year, is that not sizeable? But fitting in as an "evil" guild is difficult at best. Also gm'ing an evil guild that is big can be a total pain tbh. All "evil" guilds attract pvp'ers which you then get a bad rep from.

Vesper is big and evil.

Decardo Imier · 1st April 2007, 09:07 AM

I think its more the fact you need players who dont have 3-5 alts in other rp guilds.

Not the quantity...

Twothumb · 1st April 2007, 03:20 PM

We got both in vesper.. quantity and many alts

Good luck taking any part of Trinsic.

As to the original idea its bloody fantastic but i dont think it will work all over sosaria.

I remember Lenar [A^K] and Prince Orlando [KT] during a mini version of this between Strongholt and Beaufort. It worked extremely well with buildings being captured and fought over rather than the whole town. Main reason it worked was because Prince Orlando (and those with homes in Beaufort) and me (as A^K GM and those within A^K) were happy for plots to be taken by others.

When LB controlled Minoc (moongates senario) afew years back they was also willing to leave the town (hiding in the woods) and work on getting Minoc back.This lead to some epic battles over Minoc and all had fun.

So its more than possible to do these things aslong as ye pick the right towns/places to run with.

Guess alot of precampaign ooc discussion is the key to findout who will truely get involved and which places to avoid.

Yup youll have to drag Moiraine and Irvyn screaming from Trinsic, they jealously guard THEIR town even though they havnt the guild to warrant running a town anymore

*gets all nostalgic now*

Anyways. I'm still around, and I still have subscriptions on my three accounts, so tell me if you all need help to get anything started.

Yeah I'd like to see this taking progress aswell, and would be ready to help out with arranging stuff. I know the playerbase is far from ideal to start anything like this, but it's likely to change for the better with KR (at least for a while ;)

The current battles between RP guilds have no concequences whatsoever, none, zip. No matter what the outcome of the battle, both sides go home and the next week no one even remembers what were they fighting for (and sadly, in many cases, there wasn't a reason to begin with).

I would love to see a big, juicy campaign going on, with territories occupied and lost. If any of the GMs think they won't budge from their home even temporarily, then they should get their heads out of their arses and smell the coffee. This is exactly what the stagnant RP scene of Europa needs!

Paladis · 10th April 2007, 10:11 AM

The Northern Realms have a pretty perfect set up for this sort of thing.

Minoc..free to be fought over (to my knowledge no one claims it at present)

Cove...Town itself os held by the Barony BUT they also have a player town around it so to take Cove itself causing few problems for the guild.

Vesper...Big potential there as they also have a player town on the outskirts of Vesper itself also the many islands of Vesper town are ideal for splitting the town up (Twoey has had an idea afew times before for splitting Vesper Town into provinces).

May be a good stageing point for the start of any major Sosaria wide campaign to test the waters.

Bah! what is this minoc you speak of?
There is no minoc.... unless you are refering to West Vesper.
