Title: Strat pope.
Post by: Fringe on January 20, 2013, 12:36:08 am
We need a pope in this game...would make it so much more interesting. Why is there no pope ;_; I suggest a papacy and would say that all Christian kingdoms and parties put forth their own applicants.

Why bother really? Most of us are rather sick of the "crusader" theme anyway. Give it a rest already. Its like the most overused theme  in every single videogame that has multiplayer. Nobody using the name templar/hospitaller or crusader wont be getting points for creativity any time soon, thats for sure.

Get a head Jihadist or something like that, thats original.

Templar_Brede is the one and only true pope! It is known!

Also its retarded to be templars in a game like call of duty however being a templar/crusader in a game set in medieval times is perfectly reasonable but then again deserter is hardly original either:D

Ah yes, Osiris already said that.

I'll take a Grand Imam to lead the Muslum nations too. But it doesn't have to be about Crusades either, excommunication and shit like that would be fun. But hell since there's already a pope I can't do much. Maybe appoint an anti-pope...but of course we're separated by the NA/EU shit. Either way it would be fun if we got the whole order involved with strat and create a papacy. But maybe it tis to much.

From our clan thread


Although based on the Christian military order we fight for our 'God' Armagan, and the 'Messiah' chadz.  Our take on religion is known as chadzianity.

Pope

Role: Spiritual leader of all chadzianty, position is held for life.

Holders: Brede.




There is nothing stopping you guys from creating a rival religion or church and setting up a pope to contest chadzianity :P

Well hell if I wasn't already a christian faction I'd totally make an Islamic one...

[EDIT]
I suggest the creation of a Polytheistic religion that consists of the whole dev team as separate Gods. Barbaric clans unite under the banner of the DEViastic religion!!! (Does this brand me as a heretic for suggesting this?)

Pope Brede is the one and true pope, chosen by God himself. Any other who would proclaim he would bestow such position is nothing but a heretic and a liar and shall feel the eternal flames of God's wrath upon his day of passing.

This is heathenism at its limits, I've never read such foul lies in all my days.

Fixed.

Seriously though there was such a thing as the antipope so its not like it has to be Christianity vs Islam. Could have antipopes and spiritual leaders of other religions as well.

In a medieval game were basically the only purpose is to stab eachother with pointy things or do some other stuff that really only exsist so that stabbing eachother would be more effective the pope really lacks any other usefulness besides making people crusade.

And excommunications? Isnt that just a fancy word for "we can stab them now"?

Post by: bredeus on January 20, 2013, 08:02:58 am
Well we can try. I olny once used the excomunication over the Grey Order and the Archenemy Harpag. But I am not sure if it worked on on their keys...

I was actually thinking of how holy orders would work in Strategus. Yes they held land, but they also have their services to anyone fighting other religions. So I thought it would be a neat idea if a small clan formed as a holy order would basically be a group of mercenaries, but their prices would be determined on what faction religion their contractors had.

If I had a chance and were actually motivated to play strat I would try it, but I'm really annoyed with the current strat.

Truthfully, I would like to see a war over some sort of idealism, even if it's role-play. No bullshit stuff like "they're Germans, so they must be chocolate chip cookie's, lets attack them. Something I see happening on NA_1 RP wise is the northerners attacking the dirty southerners because they are unclean. Such is the spirit of good RP and a set-up for clans to work together and change the tides of nations. But this little bitch war suffices to.
