Every university you build produces 10.

So how I am thinking of doing this is having all your templates in the OP listing your treasurey, capitals, etc. And after your turn I will update it so everyone can see it. Only your three policys will be posted, the rest of the information goes into your OP.

OK that would be best.

Indeed.

Now hows that map coming along?

I am going to bed guys. Admiral is in charge. Just keep discussing it and give ideas tommorow or just drop it for today.

So are we starting when the map's done?

Guess so.

Pretty much yes that and when everyone agrees on the current ruleset.

I agree on the rules

As do I.

PS: I live once more!

Why are you giving us 5 cities to start? Maybe you should decrease it to 3, because you can't defend them all with the amount of money you gave us.

Aeryelia

Race: Aeryelians are a race based around control of beings. The least powerful Aeryelian could probably take control of a limb, or freeze an enemy's nervous system for a few seconds.

Leader: Raeylia has a commanding presence about her, she is an extremely adept at controlling minds of all but the strongest will.

Population: Elitist - 1500 Government: Council(Elected Oligarchy)

Treasurey: Barter and coins.

Technology Level: Tribal

Description:

Aeryelians a race based around control of beings. The least powerful Aeryelian could probably take control of a limb, or freeze an enemy's nervous system for a few seconds. They appear as blue humanoids, with a slight build, but they are flexible and quick, and generally docile though their skills are effective in war. They hunt with great effciency, by freezing their prey, making it easy to kill. They worship a goddess of life and control, which teaches them that there should be a balance in all things. While physically frail, Aeryelians are skilled with weapons, mainly used for defense until they can immoblize their enemies, though there are exceptions to this. They have a caste system in which them are born,

The Yarnak are the most bulky and powerful, making the best warriors, though their powers only work at a short range. Physically stronger than all others of their species, these are the typical soldier of their nation, and also defenders in time of war.

The Anyure are a type which can project their powers at long range, in the form of a blueish missile, which follows its target until it hits an obstacle, is blocked by an object, or disipates after a certain distance, these are the most intellectual Aeryelians,Wise advisors and scientests, although all are extremely intelligent.

Hanyare are the average citizen Aeryelian, rather than using their powers offensively, They control their own bodies to keep energy working longer, using their mind to continue working their body. This allows them to produce much more quickly, and to work almost around the clock in times of need.

Rayorne are the final caste of Aeryelia, They are arguably the most dead of all Aeryelians, their focus is on speed and stealth, they can kill extremely quickly at close range by disabling organs, and by other methods, over long range these powers decrease. The skin of the Raynore blends with its suroundings, increasing camoflauge and allowing them to sneak up on their foes. These individuals lead the hunting parties of Yarnak, and those with a pure bloodline are extremely powerful and fast. The downside to these are the birth rate, long ago when the castes were at war, they were brought together by the Anyure, as a protection against betrayal, the Anyure implanted a disease in the Raynore, which is passed down, and causes three fourths of their females to be infertile.

All Aeryelians possess long lives, and believe that they are a powerful force to be reckoned with.

Crossbreeds of Castes may be bred as well, typically for military purposes.

Military:

Militia: Just the Hanyare equipped for combat, and taught how to disable bodily functions, which is all that is within their capability

Ranged Infantry: These are recruited from the powerful Anyure, They are dedicated to long range disabling of their enemies, Whatever enemies their blasts do not finish are executed by the Yarnak infantry, as they are paralyzed.

Basic Melee Infantry: Yarnak infantry armed with spears and shields, and trained to immobilize enemies before finishing with spears. Narshi, the unit leaders, are sometimes capable of higher feats of controlling mastery.

Elite Infantry: Raynore, supported by Elite Yarnak guards, they are slow moving, but they are a solid block of nearly unbreakable infantry, ranged Raynore covered by Yarnak with large shields.

Artillery: In special cases, Anyure are born with a gene that releases energy in a wave, and can sometimes be troublesome to the Aeryelians around them, these, however, can be trained to direct their force in a bolt, which can paralyze or kill targets in a given area. The overloaded Anyure are perfect for this job, and can often project farther than their more common counterparts.

Light Cavalry: The Aeryelian Light Cavalry consists of units of Raynore/Anyure which ride Harnashik (A type of large lizard, simialar in size to a horse, but with behaviors closer to wolves). These units employ medium range shooting to harass and kill targets, before moving away quickly, they are excellent at quick hit and run missions.

Heavy Cavalry: The Heavy Cavalry of the Aeryelians consists of Yarnak/Raynore crossbreeds, they are extremely powerful controllers at close range, and are heavily armed with spears and large shield. They ride large lizards with Rhinocerous like features, and can grind up against nearly every foe in prolonged combat.


Cities and spending yet to be determined.

so is there still time to join?

We were already kinda full when Zman joined. So Magnus you are the very last, you can ally with Empire and High Elves if you want to. Sorry Bouseherb. Going to make a few more tweaks. Armies can only leave a garrison under the command of a general. This just makes it easier to keep track of all your units. So when I make the turn template you will have a list of garrisons, and a list of generals leading what units and where. I also need to know where you want to be on the map on page 9.

Also Blap may I suggest that you pick a bigger area of land, mainly because I can't fit al your capitals on there. Otherwise if someones invades your region they can jump straight to sieging one of your capitals rather than having to travel there.

Allies?
Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay!

What I have got so far is Orcs in the eastern territory, Empire in the Northern wilderness, rebels on the island kingdom at the top, Elves under the sea of despair and Bugs in the southwinds.

And I'm in the Baalgor wastelands.

Thats a bit small... how about the western badlands- Ruins of the empire?

That way if I put magnus in the Vin Sloth jungles we will be in a big circle, all fighting for the middle.

Sounds good.

Then I shall take the Island of Lopan. Care putting the map in the OP, Joker?

What color do you want? Red, green, black, brown and a purpley- blue colour are taken.

Blap you are fine where you are on the island at the top. You just have special rules.

Red for me.

Errr red is taken.... and Magnus is getting blue.

Blap the map isn't finished yet, I still have to put all the capitals on. I'm thinking of just using symbols like a windmill for farmland, castle for barracks, etc.

Brown.

Or is that also taken?

What colour am I? Red?

I wanna be red... Cause I'm gonna be a pirate...

No you are black.

Robot how about a nice silver color?

Ok.

I am pretty excited about this, though I think we should start with 1 captiol that can have 2-3 of those city types, and 2 major cities which have 1-2

Too complicated. Just easier with capitals that do one thing.

So NPC nation's can be traded with, allied with and taken over. I need a few ideas.

So far I've got Dwarves and Wood Elves.
