Beginner's Help and Guides / need suggestions on reforging/exchanging
« on: October 27, 2015, 04:35:39 pm »
Hello All,

A little help.  I've been away for a while and just come back to find 5 exchange/reforge points.  I have these +3 items.  Which ones have been nerfed to uselessness.  I see a lot of new items, which ones are people wanting.  Any feedback on what to exchange is welcomed!!! 

I probably will get some grief, but what is the state of archer affairs; , with their weight load are they nerfed to the point that they can't walk upright...being forced to shoot themselves in the knee, or somewhat playable. 

Sorry, one more;  is siege totally dead??? Thanks

What would you reforge for gameplay? for trade?

I accepted your trade. You received 35000 gold in exchange for your Heavy Swiss Halberd (rank 1, 5751641). The 5% fee of 1750 gold was paid by you.

Strategus Issues / fief battle help!!!!
« on: August 27, 2012, 03:42:23 am »
Independents are not allowed to hire defenders defend their fief...thats a small problem as I was donating the fief anyway.

The bigger problem is that all 300 of the fiefs population were killed...we need those guys for our series of battles. 

300 troops are 300 hours of crafting and I'm but one person and 12 days to craft just to get back to where the fief was could kill the dream  eeeyyyyyaaaaaaaaaaaaa  eeeeyyyyyyyaaaaaaaaaa  eeeeeeeeeyyyyyyyyyyyyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Please see if you can at least return the fiefs population or risk a lawsuit before the Vezin board of elders.  I figure this "bug" has cost the citizens of Vezin at least 10 million crpg gold.  The population is now not large enough to harvest the precious lutefish. 

I have advised all the citizens to increase reproduction of offpring in an effort to increase population, but I figure, even with everyone working hard, it will be at least 9 months before the current population can harvest the lutefish.  I also figure that it will take 5 years of growth for the offspring to reach an age which would allow them to help in the harvesting.

This coupled with the loss of tourism will increase the fief unemployment rate by 100%.  Therefore, I demand public assistance, in the form of CRPG gold, to immediatly be disbursed to each and every surviving peasant in the vicinity of Vezin.  This may be placed in my account.  I also demand unemployment compensation and job training (this is not to conflict with any reproduction efforts though!!!)  Brick houses should be built and supplied free of charge to each citizen, in an effort to increase their now destroyed self esteem.  I will administrate these programs for 5 million in CRPG.

Furthermore I demand that you do not alienate these citizens by making public their receipt of these entitlements.  Daily convoys of steak and mashed potatoes should be delivered no later than 6:00 p.m and no earlier than 2:00 p.m. (as this would conflict with reproduction efforts and sleep time.)

Where you get this crpg gold from is your problem, but may I suggest you increase the market tax to 20% per trade.  I would also advise that you seek other forms of tax to be placed upon the working citizens of strategus...as they should not be rewarded for their hard work when sharing is more proper.

That is it for now.  I will be holding meeting with the elders to further discuss any entitlements they receive as a result of you destroying their way of life.

I've looked under my battles page and only see my old battles.

I'm not part of a faction, but I am listed as the owner of the fief.

Any ideas where I can find  the page to hire mercs for the village defense?

Pasted from strat diplomacy for more visibility:



Once not long ago in a not too far away place there was a land ruled by Nobody. Many called this land Vezin, which in ancient litrotanganese means land of the beautiful horse.

It was named well, for within the borders there lived the most beautiful Rouncey horse that ever was to be.  Her name: "Rouncey". The peasants of this ever so poor land cherished their beloved rouncey horse above all else. Their over-protective nature led to the rouncey horse developing a rebellious streak four and one half miles wide. One night, after being lovingly tucked into her stall by the ever doting peasants of Vezin, Rouncey got a wild hair up her @#! and snuck out the stall window.  Once free of the confines of her stall, she quickly ran off into the moonlight. Rouncey's first taste of freedom proved exhilarating. She began to sneak out on almost a nightly basis.  Her quest for new highs led her further and further from the protection of her warm stall.

As fate would have it, across the land there lived another beautiful equine, his name simply "Jackass." For his sexual prowess, he was renowned throughout the land and hailed as the lord daddy of all things Jackassish.  Habitually roaming, and bedding down where-ever the hay was warm, Jackass was a gigolo. He came from a wandering tribe of steppe nomads and this suited his love 'em and leave 'em lifestyle.

It so happened that one day Jackass's people, being caught in a great windstorm, were blown to the edges of Rivacheg. There they came upon a small inlet known for its dense population of lutefish. Being nothing more than scavengers, the nomads decided to eat the raw lutefish. They soon became enamored with its odiferous properties. Unable to quite place their finger upon the reasons why, they couldn't help but think of Momma when a large lutefish was caught and skewered. This new land beside the inlet became Jackass's new home. Seeking to once again establish himself as the Lord and Creator of all things Jackassish, Jackass began to seek out worthy trophies.

By happenstance, one cold dark night Jackass discovered Rouncey galloping through a moonlit field of fly laden, rotting potatoes. Some say it was the lutefish, others the vile stench of the fermenting potatoes; regardless why, the two equines fell into the legs of each other. All night and for the remainder of the next week the two tried to untie the knot they had worked themselves into. Having no luck they fell into a coma as the smells of their surroundings chipped away their resolve to live.

Meanwhile, the poor citizens of Vezin searched far and near for their beloved Rouncey. All was in vain, until one dark and gloomy night a thunderous EEE-YYYAAAAAAAAA filled the air. Worried that his kid had fallen into the well again, the village elder rushed to his bedside. No, the boy was still asleep! EEE-YYYAAAAAAAA, EEE-YYYAAAAAA. As the noise continued the nameless elder charged out of his shack to investigate, only to find no explanation for the noise within the village walls... EEE-YYYAAAAAAAA, EEE-YYYAAAAAA. The cries intensified. Directly every soul within the village was looking for the origin of the squalling...did Frank's cat have hemorrhoids again, did Dorlando and Beat tip the outhouse again, just as Knute's prarie dogs escaped their anal prison (no nasty thoughts prarie dogging is when your little poopy guys keep sticking their heads out warning you that its time to go NAOW!!!)  The villagers were perplexed!!!

EEE-YYYAAAAAAAA, EEE-YYYAAAAAA, it began to draw nearer. Running towards the pitiful sound the villagers gathered at the fiefs border. EEE-YYYAAAAAAAA, EEE-YYYAAAAAA. EEE-YYYAAAAAAAA, EEE-YYYAAAAAA. In the distance they recognized old man Huseby dragging two large figures behind his sleigh. Yes he was a different old coot, but even for him this was unusual.  EEE-YYYAAAAAAAA, EEE-YYYAAAAAA.  As the sounds got closer the villagers were able to make out the soiled figure of their beloved Rouncey. They were overjoyed at the sight of her long dark mane, but were puzzled by her sudden growth of five more legs...and that noise, EEE-YYYAAAAAAAA, EEE-YYYAAAAAA, could their beloved Rouncey make such a hideous sound? Closer inspection yielded the truth of the matter. Locked in loves warm embrace was their Rouncey and a "jjjjaaa jjaaaa jjjaaaaccckkaasssss!!!!!" They could barely utter the word.
 
EEE-YYYAAAAAAAA, EEE-YYYAAAAAA Jackass howled. Old Grandma Rectalharm shouted above the wailing crowd. "COLD WATER, THROW SOME COLD WATER ON IT!!! COLD WATER NOW!!!! OH MY GOD IT’S HUGE! KILL IT!!! STOMP IT!!! SAVE ROUNCEY!!! CUT IT OFF!!!  In the confusion that ensued Jeremiah Roughcut laboriously chopped at Jackass's offending part. EEE-YYYAAAAAAAA, EEE-YYYAAAAAA. EEE-YYYAAAAAAAA, EEE-YYYAAAAAA. EEE-YYYAAAAAAAA, EEE-YYYAAAAAA, Jackass screamed. EEE-YYYAAAAAAAA, EEE-YYYAAAAAA; his cries bringing in the steppe nomads just as Jeremiah Roughcut made the last chop. A chop that freed both Jackass and Rouncey from Jackass's offending part.

The nomads became very angered that their jackass's famous appendage had been so mercilessly hacked away. They demanded it back and compensation. The Vezinians refused to pay compensation or return the prized appendage. A fist fight broke out among the nomads and the Vezinians...................................


A FIST FIGHT YOU ARE INVITED TO HELP RE-ENACT ON THE NA STRATEGUS SERVER.

RULES ARE:

NO WEAPONS MAY BE SELECTED...THIS BEGINS AS A FIST FIGHT.

NOMADS HAVE 36 FIGHTERS AND NOMAD ARMOR ONLY (better armor terrible numbers.)

VEZINIANS HAVE OVER 252FIGHTERS WITH TUNIC AND PEASANT DRESSES ONLY (armor is poor but #'s are on their side.)

Help fight for the return of Jackass's treasure or the Vezinians' right to retain the offending part (namely Grandma Rectalharm who immediatly took the appendage into protective custody.)

Hopefully this will be a series of progressive fights...from a fist fight to start it all, to a rock throwing contest across the waters, to an all out pitchfork peasant match, and, with time on our side, an epic armored knight battle.

STAY TUNED I'M SURE THIS ESCALATES!!!!!!!!!!

Mercenary Recruitment / merc payment
« on: April 20, 2012, 11:42:32 pm »
Thanks to everyone who participated in the battle Wednesday (or thursday for some of you!)  I really do appreciate you guys staying up late and helping.  In my notes I promised everyone who showed up 5k CRPG gold if they got a higher k/d percentage than me.  Well the results are as follows:

Bale O' Hay delivered an amazing moon jump, back twisting, double somersault, mighty broad one handed battle axe chop to someone that simply made me lol, while Bruvantas delivered a long awaited blow of revenge to the Sultan to end the battle.

I on the other hand, in my stupidity, forgot to sign myself up; didn't really matter as all slots were full anyway.  SOOOOOOO what this means is that everybody either equalled or exceeded my k/d.

I will pay everyone who showed or was in TS (I know a couple went to bed when they saw my roster was full, but I do appreciate you showing up and you can claim the $$$ also) the 5 k crpg gold.  I have had a few claim the bonus, but many haven't.  If you want the $$$ please put stones up for 5k gold and I'll buy them...if you put something else up please lmk because I will only search for stones.

The gold not claimed I will donate to the last, say 5-10, new board members (who are not an alias of Abay)...if the admins can tell me who they are.  I will pm them with a welcome, explanation of what's happening, a link to the factions page, and a list of the factions who were their benefactors (while the Turks may have indirectly been benefactors, that doesn't count  :P.)

If you wish to donate the $$$ simply do nothing, if you would like your share PLACE THE STONES!!!!!  :lol:  This also includes the good man who tried to broker a deal and came very close to preventing Bruvantas from exacting his revenge, as well as those who provided/offered re-inforcements in certain locations :D...I won't mention names here.

What the hell; Sultan since you and your teammate had the "Frank The Tank's avatars" to stand there and battle; thus giving bruvantas some satisfaction for your unprovoked attack on him, I'll send you 1k crpg gold each:  if you place stones...but I won't be sending newbies to your faction page (I don't like how your members do business.)

Thanks everybody!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Strategus General Discussion / BEWARE DRZ's free trading zone
« on: November 12, 2011, 07:35:30 pm »
I read the post saying all are free to enter and trade in DRZ lands, and only ayn assaudi had a 5% tax...Well I sent my toon to Sekhtem last night to spend the night and continue to Tamnuh today.

When I sign on today I see all of my gold is gone...its seems the "free land" charges 100 gold an hour to stay and a 5% tax.  Thats cool, I should have stayed up all night to check what the fee was when I entered or checked earlier this morning.  Lesson learned, DRZ enjoy your (my) gold. 

I have no hard feelings against DRZ, but I do want to warn everybody that they charge 100 gold to stay in a fief and more than one fief charges 5% tax (usually 2-3 gold per good or more.)  This is not trader friendly and I wonder just how much gold they have made off with without the trader noticing or how many small independent traders like me they have broke.

I would recommend avoiding this area as it is not only expensive but also attract bandits just outside the boundaries.

p.s. DRZ change your post to reflect the truth!!!  Thank you

Strategus Issues / accepted status time limit
« on: August 24, 2011, 09:40:33 pm »
I posted before and I am again.....please stop the last minute "de approval" for an AI strat battle.  It really is bullshit that you apply, get accepted, and then MAKE RL PLANS, so that you are free during the battle time only to be kicked at the last minute.

I checked at 2:57 and was still accepted so I quit reg crpg (once again leaving a multiplier behind) to play in the 3:00 Grey vs AI castle game only to find I am no longer accepted????  Yeah, I know we are beta testers blah blah blah, but first we are freaking people with lives.  It is only decent that we be treated as such.  I'm not as much pissed about not being able to play as I am about being stood up and all the other nonsense and irresponsible/careless behaviors I've encountered.

My suggestion is that the computer either doesn't accept anybody until 1-2 hours before the battle and then it is written in stone or once selected the computer can not de-select you within 8 hours of the battle occurring.  I am still level 28 so I understand the computer may not want me and if that is the case then don't select me in the first place!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Strategus Issues / tehlrog castle exp k/d bug ???
« on: August 23, 2011, 03:18:15 pm »
My after battle report shows a K/D of 8:15. 

Does anybody have a final screen shot because I'm pretty sure I had over 20 kills and I would like to confirm it if possible.

I'm asking because I can't see where I got any exp at all and I'm wondering if there is a bug and the incorrect k/d has something to do with no exp gain.  I was there until the end and killed the second to last person.  I had one of the first kills also...proving I was there the whole time.  Why no exp, or was the exp so small I didn't notice.  Thanks
