    Default Claims Thread (Part 1: AOR Claims)

    Alright people, here is Part 1 of the Claims.

    This first part will involve what AORs you want to start in. Please view the map below for the AOR regions.
    Note: Crete and Sparta cannot be claimed!

    AOR Map


    AOR Regions (by color)
    Red = Macedonian
    Light Grey = Greek
    Purple = Anatolian
    Light Green = Syrian
    Blue = Egyptian
    Yellow = Persia
    Dark Green = India
    Dark Grey = Sparta and Crete (Cannot be Claimed, but Conquered)


    Please choose 2 - 3 AORs you would want to start in.
    Depending upon the AOR claims, we will balance out the AORs to ensure there are balanced number of players per AOR (depending upon their size).

    After this is done (give it a day or two), province claims will be set up.

    AOR Claim List
    Macedon AOR: Lucius Malfoy, Aspisas, Wheatley, PilgrimStans, Jacb, Stannis
    Greece AOR: Ace, Pericles, PilgrimStans, Jacb
    Anatolia AOR: Zectorman, Aspisas, Barry, Xion, Jacb, McScottish, Oz, Watercress
    Syria AOR: Barry, Xion, PilgrimStans, McScottish, Watercress, Stannis
    Egypt AOR: Zectorman, Aspisas, Wheatley, Pericles, Oz, Stannis
    Persia AOR: Lucius Malfoy, Aspisas, Ace, Xion, Wheatley, Pericles, McScottish, Oz, Watercress
    India AOR: Lucius Malfoy, Zectorman, Barry

    Ace, read my post.

    Choose 2 - 3 AORS (The AORs are Macedon, Greece, Anatolia, Persia, India, Syria and Egypt).


    The steppes is not one of those AORs.

    I will put you down for Greece and Persia AOR then.

    I really hate to do this, but I have to now.

    This does not even warrant a response to, but I am gonna have to. You clearly are not reading my instructions, Ace. Because they answer majority of what you just said and asked about. Everybody else exactly understands what I am asking for.

    A post from the proposal thread.

    A claim thread will be made for claiming territories/regions (pick at least 2 or 3 areas you wanna start in) once the forum is up and ready. If you choose one, you most likely will not get it depending upon the judgment of the moderators. We wanna make sure there is balance of players every AOR. Not a cluster here and major vacancies else where.

    Once we determine the player's choice of starting AOR, we will then go to provincial claims. Disputed claims will be done by either player agreement or moderation intervention at the offer of moderators or player request (usually a roll that determines who gets what).

    AOR claim first, then province claims. No first come first serve. AORs will be balanced at mod discretion, depending upon the claims of players.

    You will see my further instructions on province claims once the thread is up and after this first part is done.

    We are doing this so that we can get a good spread on where players start and don't end up with large clusters of pc states right next to each other. That is why we will first split up after AOR region, then provinces.

    As for "first come, first served", LM would have to answer that but I doubt that is how it's going to work.

    That's why you pick multiple regions. To solve potential claims over the same area, like in Swords of India.

    No, I think it's a "pick your top 3 choices and we'll do some sort of lottery thing to determine where everyone fits in"

    1. Anatolia AOR
    2. Persia AOR
    3. Syria AOR

    Although I personally don't care where I end up, I have a plan for every AOR. So if it turns out another player may be needed for an AoR I didn't list, feel free to put me there.

    Welcome to the forum! If you have any questions, feel free to ask (PM Me or ask in the OOC thread).

    =======================

    I would ask if more people could be interested in Anatolia, Persia and India, mainly because Greece, Syria and Macedon (a total of 26 provinces) are rather small in size compared to the rest of AORs (the other 4 AORs amount to around 70, Persia alone has 34 provinces with Anatolia at 23). Because be aware that player presence in AORs will be balanced depending upon the interests of players and their choices. I would hate to put someone in a place they won't like in order to balance things out.

    I do plan to fill up the map as much as I can, compared to the original Swords of India where there were countless NPC nations.

    I would also recommend people read up on the Military System and Manpower (provided to us by HB) content in the Rules Thread. It could change people's minds on what they want.
