(IR) IR Interlude Turn 5 - Turn 6 (thread 2)

SECRET POST - 'o Skoteinos, Edena

Ah, yes - indeed I have. Sorry that I haven't replied to it. Been a little busy.

'o Skoteinos - You may have some technology from us, to this effect, assuming we have it.

Edena - Skoteinos wants to augment his people with built-in technology that allows them to have enhanced visual senses, including low-light, dark, infra, ultra, the whole works. Do we have the technology to implant these kinds of things into people?

Off Topic-Are you still joining the In search for heroes game, if so, characters are due today or tomorrow abouts, and since you haven't been posting there I posted this here to make sure.[/color]

Sollir - No, sorry - I won't be participating in that one. Not now, anyway. If you still would like someone to hop aboard once this IR is done, then perhaps... but that's no guarantee. For now, go ahead and start without me.

GnomeWorks:[Color=222222]

Thats fine, just making sure you didn't forget.[/color]

Off topic, but are you still joining the play by post game in the In Search for Heroes thread, chars are due either today or tomorrow and just checking if you know or have decided not to play.[/color]

To Edena:

[Color=333333]From Creamsteak/Sollir,

We have not had a chance to open discussion about planars again just yet. If the planar Giant Eagles are a problem I will take doubles on Planar Gem Dragons. Here is what I will mandate as being our planars:

On Sollir's Side

Slaadi (Planars of Limbo, chaotic neutral)
Demons (Planars of the Abyss, chaotic evil)
Chromatic Planar Dragons (Chromatic Dragons from all Planes other than the Prime, evil)

On Creamsteak's Side

Axiomatic Giant Eagles (Giant Eagles from all planes other than the Prime, always Lawful).
Planar Gem Dragons (Gem Dragons from all Planes other than the Prime, neutral)
Earth Elementals (Planars of the Elemental Plane of Earth)[/Color]

Kalanyr

Ok then thank you. Does that mean Kalanyr achieved ascension or is the extra 3 PL from elsewhere?
Edit- Obviously not ascension since the God Emperor went to 20PL, quasi-diety hood perhaps?

ANSWER: No. Kalanyr is still mortal. The 3 PL is from elsewhere.

'o Skoteinos

ANSWER TO SECRET MESSAGE: 'o Skoteinos, your scouts find the same wall that Forsaken One's formians found.
You cannot penetrate it. It is impregnably strong - far stronger than any steel.

LordMelkor

Edena, Maudlin stated that he allows me and Anabstecorian to keep our Undead. Could you adjust the list accordingly?

ANSWER: Heh. Very well.

Also, there are two civilization advancement scores for Alzem, me and Forrester, I assume that much higher one is for Toril?

ANSWER: Please reread my updated rules for Advancing Your Civilization. The appropriate part of the rules in question apply for the Torilian powers only.

Anabstercorian

FORRESTER

We REALLY need to talk. Come to Pezano's, or I will come to you. I will e-mail you an IC explanation.

ANSWER: Heh. Somebody wants their Staff back.

William Ronald

Thanks for the support

Hello, everyone:

I would like to thank everyone for their condolences. I am still shook up by my aunt's death.

I will be unavailable for at least the first part of the week. Also, my computer problems are still severe. (I am at my sister's, so I thought that while I am waiting for her, I would check the boards.)
I am honored to be a part of such a supportive online community.

ANSWER: It is an honor to have you as a player in my IR, William - or shall I say, OUR IR, for you Players make it the thing of beauty it is.
I will delay Turn 6, as stated, for both you and Kaboom.

I briefly glanced through the thread. Is advancing one's civilization still the same for a turn that lasts a year or is it's value multiplied by 12.

ANSWER: Good question. I overlooked the answer. The answer is that the rule concerning Advancing Your Civilization stays EXACTLY THE SAME. You advance as if the Turn lasted only one month.

I think we should give kaboom a chance to return. So maybe we will appropriately start on April 1st for the next turn. (April Fool's Day.)

ANSWER: I intend to wait. I hope Kaboom won't be gone that long.

I will have a new job starting soon, so I may post a little less frequently. However, I am in the IR to stay.

William

Again, thanks for your support. It means a lot for me

ANSWER: Thank you for your support for ME.

zouron

*mumbles a lot of strainge inaudible things under his breath*

could anyone direct me to a thread or send me, or post the IR current rules? or an older version or something?

thank you.

ANSWER: I can do that, Zouron, but ... why do you ask? Are you interested in joining the IR?
You're welcome to join, if you are interested. I'll let you play the Eternal Empire's forces on Oerth - they are cut off from home.

- - -

GnomeWorks

zouron - most of the older IR3 threads began with the lists post, and then the rules post.
They begin at least the first three turns, if not the fourth. They're out here on the IC forum somewhere...

ANSWER: Ah, thank you for helping Zouron, GnomeWorks.

- - -

zouron

already looked, might just be me didn't find it.

GnomeWorks

Try the first thread of Turn 2. I found it there, so it's at least there. It's on the first page, and it's the second post.

- - -

zouron

found it finally, thanks gnomeworks

ANSWER: Thanks much, GnomeWorks

'o Skoteinos

Gnomeworks, you haven't replied to my mail yet. Did you get it?

ANSWER: No answer needed.



'o Skoteinos

ANSWER TO YOUR SECRET QUESTION, 'O SKOTEINOS: Not yet. Your rating in the Technological Arms Race needs to be about 12 points higher.

From Creamsteak/Sollir,

We have not had a chance to open discussion about planars again just yet. If the planar Giant Eagles are a problem I will take doubles on Planar Gem Dragons. Here is what I will mandate as being our planars:

On Sollir's Side

Slaadi (Planars of Limbo, chaotic neutral)
Demons (Planars of the Abyss, chaotic evil)
Chromatic Planar Dragons (Chromatic Dragons from all Planes other than the Prime, evil)

On Creamsteak's Side

Axiomatic Giant Eagles (Giant Eagles from all planes other than the Prime, always Lawful).
Planar Gem Dragons (Gem Dragons from all Planes other than the Prime, neutral)
Earth Elementals (Planars of the Elemental Plane of Earth)

ANSWER: That's fine, Creamsteak, Sollir. I will change the Lists for you.

Edena, for the lists I have created my 16 NPC's. I believe they are in format so that you can just cut and paste them on the list. They are in no particular order, however.



Cadaudric (male human Rog19/Sor1, Neutral Good) PL 1
Etendaldan (male elf, wild Sor14/Ftr6, Lawful Good) PL 1
Baeron (male aasimar Pal19/Ftr1, Lawful Good) PL 1
Abireder (female half-elf Ftr20, Chaotic Good) PL 1
Legoabaen (female human Ftr13/Rgr7, Lawful Neutral) PL 1
Elirab (male elf, wood Rgr15/Ftr5, Chaotic Good) PL 1
Rhaywyn (female gnome ,svirfneblin Wiz20, Lawful Neutral) PL 1
Thoch (male gnome, rock Drd19/Rog1, Neutral) PL 1
Lum (male giant, storm Sor13/Rog7, Lawful Good) PL 1
Brohagan (male dwarf, hill Ftr15/Sor5, Chaotic Good) PL 1
Choredan (male gnome, rock Wiz15/Rgr5, Neutral Good) PL 1
Nydoiwyn (male halfling, deep Rog14/Rgr6, Chaotic Neutral) PL 1
Eloat (male aasimar Ftr17/Drd3, Lawful Neutral) PL 1
Weritram (male gnome, forest Wiz17/Bbn3, Chaotic Good) PL 1
Astelikin (male elf, aquatic Brd18/Drd2, Chaotic Good) PL 1
Laroit (female elf,high Wiz19/Brd1, Neutral Good) PL 1

I am posting this letter to the board at the behest of William.

- - -

Thanks for the condolences, I am at my sister's right
now, so I have temporary access to a computer. (I
should get a new keyboard for mine soon.)

I would like to thank you for pausing the IR. I am in
a bad state of mind right now. The wake is Monday,
and the funeral is Tuesday.

I did have a chance to check the boards. I am very
grateful for the messages of condolences from
everyone. My aunt was a very important part of my
family, the matriarch as it were of my father's
family. She was lively, fun loving and wise. I miss
her greatly.

I suggest that the next turn begins Monday, April 1st.
(Ironic, isn't it). It will give kaboom a chance to
return. Also, I will be fine by then.

(I will likely start my substitute teaching job on
April 3rd, but I can post in the evenings.

Next week, I may participate in the interlude.
However, I think we can afford a week to wait. Also,
you will need to clarify what having a turn last a
year means to a template. (Advancing a civilization
and magical research will likely have lower values as
the effect should be cumulative.)

I am uncertain when I will be able to reply. I would
like to thank you and everyone for your support at
this time.

Feel free to share this letter with everyone. I am
honored to be part of such a supportive online
community.

William
