Title: What are with Fief owners?
Post by: Blue_J on May 25, 2012, 11:58:34 pm
Every now and then someone joins a game and says blah blah blah welcome the lord of this place. How is this achieved? Also, are there any benifits to being the owner of some form of fief?
Thanks

Who the fuck plays Strategus anymore?

Must be the Russians. Have they taken over the inactive world yet?

A fief owner is obviously... A person that owns a feif on Strategus

A fief being a castle, town or village on strategus.

Its only a name.

so there are no rewards that come with it? I thought I heard that you get a bonus xp/gold but I could be wrong.

You can charge taxes for strat gold for people who stay in your fief and you can convern strat gold to CRPG gold at a 1:10 ratio.  There are no direct benefits to being a fief owner playing normal CRPG other then the pink text.

Strat gold conversion got removed, though, right?

Oh.  No benefit to CRPG normal mode then.  Totally unrelated

I don't think it got removed so much as it never worked. I think it always just ate your money.

How long has it been since you've actually played Strategus and did you ever try being a trader, bandit, etc?  If your clan quit Strategus en masse in the fall and you're still complaining about it, what's the point? 

It's just a casual browser game that's kept a lot of people interested in cRPG longer than they would have been if it was just battle/siege servers.  I think if those other mods, Fire & Sword and Napoleonic Wars, would've had some kind of similar campaign map element that gave battles a purpose they might have maintained cRPG size populations too.  The WFAS weapons would've fit really well in a Caribbean pirate style strategus game and if NW had a map of Europe strat style game that would've been awesome.
