How many Dalians are setting their affairs straight at or travelling to the capital?

[JPierreD]

Our neighbors to the south actually just got scattered for cheating (which is good as they were looking to crush us)

I really don't understand why those players even bother joining BattleMaster. The game is /not/ about winning, as Risk or such might be, and there are tons of games out there that are! It's like trying to win  DwarfFortress...

so...all in all if we dont get utterly destroyed I can at least look forward to quick promotions and the like!

Well, congrats!

The tutorial bored me to death yesterday so I'll try to go without. I am Tobias van Dutch and I'm in Norrdir in the realm of Summerdale. Let's see how this goes.

edit: The Wiki guide told me to swear fealty to a lord. Now I have two problems:
-There is no lord of Norrdir according to the realm hierarchy
-The wiki seems to suggest that swearing fealty is just a roleplay thing without actual in game effect. This seems rather odd to me. Is it true?

edit: Nevermind, I know what to do now.

How long do you usually have to wait for an e-mail from them?

Haven't gotten mine (it could be because it's the weekend) and it doesn't want to send me a new one to the same adress :S

[Dutchling]

I have no idea. I signed up and only a few days later (now) did I actually bother to play it.
I love the way role play works though, it is enough to make it fun but not too much to make it look like an English exam.

I also just noticed that you don't need to add a signature to letters as the game does it for you. So my last few letters all look like they are written by some kind of moron .

I'm enjoying the roleplay as well, for pretty much the same reasons. Are all servers roleplay? This game would feel pretty boring if people just played it like a regular browser game.

Well, in a sense the entire game is roleplay, because on all the different islands people write & play as nobles, not players. But it is felt most strongly on Dwilight I suspect.

And yeah, the signature thing is always worth a few chuckles, remembering how one did the same thing when starting

Edit: you come right with the email yet Jopax? Whats your requested family name? I can post it to the BM forum and hopefully get you some help.

Guilty. I kept including my signature until my lord (very politely) informed me that it was added automatically. D'oh.

[Kansa]

I did the exact same thing

Hehe, that's why it shows you the message once you have sent it - to go D'oh at your mistakes and note the double signatures (and so that you don't continue doing it!) 

[Sirus]

I never look at the message after I sent it! I always clicked the Preview button first, and that doesn't add your signature!

It seems like when the game tells you your travel target is 8 hours away, it is actually 8 action points away, and these action points are called hours.

I am also mildly disappointed that (at least in Summerdale) there isn't really a feudal system. It would have been awesome if dukes have their own schemes and wars within a realm and might decide to become king of their own in the midst of a war.

Playing as an adventure looks like fun. Seems less time commitment then Noble...
Lets see how it goes though, where am I joining to again??? \\goes back and checks\\

Trying to create a characther now (mail didn't come trough the filters, had to use another one), it's somewhat hard finding a name that sounds ok and isn't taken :<
