This thread has been established to serve as the primary location of update information. Any big changes to the information section, map, etc. will be noted in this thread.

CYCLE 0 - Magic, Religion, Maps Updated

A brief overview of Magic and Religion has been added to the INFORMATION thread and a separate thread has been established for more detailed information, as well as discussion, regarding both religion and magic and the roles they play in the game. The thread is still under construction.

The Maps have been updated and can now be found under "Play" (like Cycle Announcements).
There is a Current Map (which should be used for locating positions; it is the full size map) and a Political map which is just supposed to give a quick and clear view of the current possessions of all player and NPC factions who are in control of cities.

CYCLE 0 - Quain Established, Law Holding Information Updated, Food Information Updated

I've made a faction thread and diplomacy thread for the NPC nation of Quain. Expect other NPC's to pop up as the game progresses.

I updated the information on Laws, specifically regarding how large a population needs to be with respect to the level of the law in the city in order to start causing problems. It is a bit more lenient now.

Also in the information section, Water has been added as a terrain type that provides food, 2/PP specifically. No Rasq, your bonus does not apply to it because you cannot really irrigate an ocean.... or can you?

CYCLE 1 - Basic Unit List
A list of basic units has been posted in the information forum. It does not contain all units a player can get, not even non-unique ones. It should help speed players along with creating their own units.

Bah. Our territorial waters contain the most extensive irrigation system to date! In fact, many of our farmers have taken to tending their, er, farmlands in wooden ships.

Of course, many of them have found that there's more profit to be found in fishing for the animals that have invaded the canals than there is in actual farming. But hey, that's the free market.

CYCLE 1 - Holdings Information Updated
Upkeep costs for holdings has been added to the information section.
Upkeep = Level

CYCLE 1 - GM Change, Cycle 1 extended by one week
Tyler has been removed from the position of Administrator/Game Master. Rotaretilbo has been chosen to fill his place. The decision was made based on activity of the former GM and the activity level of the selected replacement.

Due in part to the swap of GM's and my own inability to handle everything that has been happening during this cycle, it is being extended by one week. I apologize for any resemblance this bears to traffic during road-work season in the north.
