Hello everyone! Quincy Clan has decided to role-play another role in the new round of Strategus. We shall be called the “Council of Calradia”.
As some of you might already know we used to be a neutral merchant republic in the last round. We managed to role-play our game until the end of Strategus 4. We had no wars and no allies and no enemies. Now we want a new challenge.
This new challenge is actually a big one. We want to make sure that the entire Strategus player base of EU part of the map gets the most fun in the new round by ensuring decent amounts of experience gain and also by enhancing the diplomatic system of Calradia.
As many of you already know there will be a large increase in equipment prices. This fact scares people to believing that there won’t be much experience to be gained. Quincies also believe there would a lot less experience in the following Strategus round. We offer a way to mitigate this.
Another issue, stated many, many times before, is the disparity between so called “big” and “small” factions. We are offering solution to potentially increase the influence of the smaller clans and allow them potential means of defending themselves against “big” factions and/or blocks if they are bullied for no apparent reason.
This introduction may seem appealing but the big questions are “How the hell can you do all of that???? How can you make the game give more experience when everything will be too darn expensive??? How do you plan to make small factions be more influential??? Is this some kind of a joke???”
Here are some answers. Our new faction (Council of Calradia) would be something based on the ideas of European Union and United Nations today in the real life. As the name might suggest we are planning to make a big Calradian council where community would make decisions on worldwide politics. We also suggest some reasonable rules so we can all enjoy this game. And this is not, in any way, a joke. We (the Quincy Clan) have spent weeks developing this system just so you, the community, would enjoy the new round of Strategus more!
In order to make this thread as short as possible I will provide you with the link to our plan in a form of a pdf document, and every single EU faction should read it as soon as possible. Text below this link will have comments on the pdf file and at the end there will be the FAQ section as soon as u start asking questions.
http://www.solidfiles.com/d/6f91ce85be/Quincy_Clan_Strategus_5.pdfI cant take the entire credit for this idea. XyNox and Kamirane did a major role in writing this idea. I just forgot to mention their names before i started distributing the file... Im sorry guys <3
In the document there is no explicit explanation about the gain for the community but the implications should be clear:
Safer trade -> More trade -> More silver -> More equipment -> Better battles -> More fun -> More experience
Fairer battles -> Better battles -> More fun -> More experience
Enhanced diplomatic system -> More people involved into worldwide politics -> More fun for diplomat type of players
“Small” factions role enhanced -> Less fear from “big” factions + more influence over the politics -> More fun for new players or existing small factions
So basically by becoming a member of Council of Calradia you are ensuring more fun and more experience for all. Just to be clear, becoming a member does not make u an ally to anyone. You choose your allies and enemies on your own.
