No real rules, just guidelines for behavior. This is supposed to replace the old thread, but rather, run parallel to it. First off, everyone picks a force they command, control, or work as spokesman for. No changing sides! For example, Forrester is pretty much spoked for as leader of the Humanoids, Phasmus DEFINITELY is the Illithid, and I've been asigned (somehow) control of the Planeswalkers. Second, this threads timeline starts exactly two seconds after the Elves shattered the Weave. I can't remember what the state of the war was back then, so any posts until Edena shows up are just chat. Third - Edena is god. She can't alter our intentions, but she can make them crumble to dust beneath us or bring us to new heights of power depending on how sensible or effective are plans are. After Edena posts, you can post your intentions once. Make it a nice long post, detailed. This is just what your force is doing. You can't post another command to your forces until Edena resolves the round you gave your first command in. After the second time Edena posts, you may post again. Essentially, Edena, you post whenever you want (preferably after at least most of the rulers have posted their commands) and your posts consist of a summary of what happened that round (Who succeeded, who failed, and generally set the stage for the next round) and tell how long that round took. Then the next round begins, and it's in-game length varies depending on what we try to do. Edena, if someone hasn't posted and you'd like to post, go ahead and take over for them. I can't exactly stop you or make you, but don't feel held back. You can decide what they'd do. Well, since I'm the Planewalkers and the first round hasn't even started yet, my followers are all flitting through their home planes and having adventures. Game starts on Edena's post.
