Entren Armeni

"Looks like everything but the south-west is taken, men. Let's go just south of the forest on our southwest. ((around H24 on Lordbucket's map)). Scouts, you move out first. Also, I want to make contact with Sergej. I want to propose an alliance with him."

The fleet travels southwest, as fast as the slowest ship allows them to go. The scouts, cruisers, dynamos and the Riftsailer scout out the area, and then return to with the fleet. One scout goes to meet up with Sergej and propose an alliance.

Name: Entren Armeni
Gender/Age: Male, 36 years old
Appearance: A medium-height, generally unassuming man with brown hair and green eyes. However, looking past the unassuming exterior reveals one of the more powerful mages that civilization has ever produced. He began to work magic at 19 after leaving his apprenticeship at a blacksmith. He picked magic up quickly, gaining the position of high mage after a mere thirteen years of practice. He was instrumental in developing the rift, a process that drained much of his energy, making him look older that he should.
Skills: Arcane Research, Magic, Leadership, and Summoning
Natural Magic: Earth

Flagship: Riftsailer
Flagship type: speed, arcane support
300 Storage, +8 Speed, +3 short range, - long range, +3 protection, arcane support

No post yet (not at computer yet :3), just a reply to Bucket.

*I actually just averaged everyone's avatar's colors; wasn't much thinking there
*The rift was not closed.
*The area to the south is hills. I think I said that in the description. I didn't know how to do hills for colors
*The map grid is not uniform because I actually just took a screen shot of Photoshop zoome in enough to see individual pixels. That image is 32x32 originally; to me, coloring over positions is simply just 'go to corresponding player layer, tap arrows'.
*I have only 3 colors for the hills, but while making the map I magnified it by four times and the program automatically smoothed it.
*Grids are rather hard to do (imo) when the players explore non-square areas...

I will probably...
- Change player colors
- Lighten map for contrast
- Add a key
- Think up some way to represent coordinates ... Probably number by number, so I can go into negatives

You could go with normal map topographics, as in - lower, greener, higher, yellow then red/brown.

Teal for swamplands, bright yellow for sand?

- Think up some way to represent coordinates ... Probably number by number, so I can go into negatives

Or you could use GPS coordinates... The left portal tile is N 0 E 0 (also, S 0 W 0). Everything southwest of it, for example, is S 7 W 2

Also, if Artemi's ship reaches me this turn, this is Prof. Genja's answer:

"Hmm... Scientific and arcane combined. Plus, Artemi known from project, trustworthy, acceptably smart. Unlike some here. Return at once, messenger, answer is yes. Further contact after primary exploration."

[Lillipad]

I claim red.

You claim red, eh?

Flagship name: Rouge Fleur

[Haspen]

I claim black

[Sinpwn]

((Around how far would we be able to go in terms of map squares on our current supply of food?))

[EagleV]

While you guys battle for red, I'll have dibs on navy blue

[LordBucket]

You claim red, eh?

Yes.

Name: Azalyn Kementari
Personality tropes: Axe Crazy, Unfettered, Sociopathic Hero

I recommend you not object.

Incidentally, it seems we have something more important to take care of:

*The rift was not closed.

Just as the last ship took off, the aberrations entered the outer city. The screams of slaughtered people and the horrid cries of the things along with the crashes of wood and stone being broken intertwined themselves to create a macabre fugue of death.

"This is the sound of civilization collapsing,"

: The rift must be closed. Anyone still in position at the rift, fire at its base. Meanwhile, let us all combine our magical energies together with our arcani mages to attempt to force it closed.

"Men, change of plans- I need to send the arcane support ship to help close the rift. I'll follow in the flagship to help. I helped build it, I can help close it."

Send the arcane support ship to help close the rift, and follow in the flagship to do the same. Get as close as needed to help, but not closer. All other ships continue as before.

EDIT: I'll take a orangeish color.

[agertor]

My plans remain unchanged, but hey if I could have like... a toxic green or purple, I'd be happy.

[EagleV]

"Rift still open, not planned, dangerous. Need to help. Hope this doesn't delay our plans."

Sergej will send his arcane support ship back as well, to close the rift.

[IronyOwl]

You still accepting lesser captains/vassals?
