He's currently in Athens I think.

My characters traits and bios are finished. Added a few brothers to round out the family.

**Dirty Chai** · April 25, 2016, 04:04 PM

Didn't he stay in Greece?

EDIT: Ninja'd.

Well, I'm gonna sign up an Iranian. I will coinflip for a Bactrian or Persian.
I can't really make them Roxana's relative (yet), 'cuz Xion's got first dibs and I don't wanna steal someone's dibs.
Unless we do a dice roll or something for it

She was debating signing up yet because she wasn't sure if you would contest her claiming to be Roxana's relative. I'm honestly liking the detail and thought people are putting into these characters. Good work everyone, including you Barry!

Haha, so we're both just trying to be considerate
Alright, Xion, you can have Roxana's brother, it's fair and square

Seems like everyone is going about things pretty amicably. Hopefully that will extend to the partition as well!

Looks like the last Diadochi has finished his signup. Will the Partition of Babylon begin tonight or tomorrow?

**Barry Goldwater** · April 25, 2016, 09:17 PM

I'm writing it as we speak, should have it done before midnight.

I see we don't have enough characters to split up Alexander's empire into satrapies for, btw. In the interest of increasing player-to-player interaction & cutting down the number of NPC satraps, I'll allow y'all to create secondary characters/families on the condition that you seek to place 'em as far away as possible from your mains so as to avoid a conflict of interest (ex. someone who wants to become satrap of Macedon should put their aux in Arachosia, or something).

I'll go try to recruit some Game of Thrones players..

Definitely a good idea.

People will probably be a little busy with starting up that new GoT game.

**Dirty Chai** · April 25, 2016, 09:42 PM

Worth trying

**Pyrrhus the Molossian** · April 25, 2016, 09:45 PM

I'll canvas a few more alliance players and see if they're interested.

**Dirty Chai** · April 25, 2016, 10:05 PM

Barry, whenever you're free, I would just love a family roll

**Lord Oda Nobunaga** · April 25, 2016, 10:10 PM

I have a brother who seems to be interested in playing. Problem is we only have one computer so I guess we will have to share (though he might be able to borrow my mom's old laptop or her tablet). Also his account has the same IP address as mine so a mod might accuse me of sock puppeting. Anyway his interests might not align with mine since he wants to play a Greek character.

**Barry Goldwater** · April 25, 2016, 10:27 PM

@BF Your guy's profile says he has no kids, are you changing that? You don't need a roll if you want to give him siblings or cousins though, I'll permit it so long as you don't give him like 10 of each.

B/c I forgot to do so, I've rolled for Aristazanes/Abdulmecid's character's kids: 2 sons, aged 8 and 6.

Also, thanks BF & Pyrrhus for your recruitment drives, the more players we have the better. I'm sure that player-to-player interactions are more fun & meaningful than endless player-to-NPC business.

@Oda That's fine with me.

Also, I've added naval units and a Sea Dog trait. You can change your existing character's trait to Sea Dog within this first turn if you'd like.

How many ships are in each unit? And how many marines per ship? If you don't mind my asking of course.

@Barry,
Ah, thought you rolled for family in general. Alright then, I'll give him a few sisters or something. Maybe a spare male relative in case he gets crossed out.

@Oda,
Just make sure the administration/general moderators know there'll be a second account on your IP. Pretty sure having alts is against the TOS for the most part. I'm pretty sure they have a thread somewhere where you can make it clear there's multiple people using the same IP.
