Hello and Welcome, some 7 or 8 years back now, Iituem created the First You are King and one of the Forumgames i had the most fun with. You Are King has now existed in some 7 or 8 iterations itself. Each of various successes and longevity.

In any case, this game shall be in just such a vein, however trying to conjure up the Nostalgia of Yore it will start in a pretty much empty universe so to say, for you and me to fill up. While there are certainly rules and regulations around i'll keep them as best as possible to a minimum and as least obstructive as possible to allow for maximum roleplaying.

Anyway, what we need first of all is a Player who wishes to be King. As in the Original, First Come First Served. However, there is a Caveat: You NEED to be an active Player. The King is not only a player himself but also a sort of semi-gm in that he is central to all events in the Game.

Since the Last Argument will be centered around the history and events of one kingdom, that means that the Monarch takes center stage and serves as main player, protagonist, quest giver and driving force of the plot. Thus if you are not prepared to be around for long and to be active, consider another role.

With that being out of the way here is your Sign-Up Sheet as King:

What is your Name?
What is the Name of your Kingdom?
What is the vague terrain around your capital?
What year is it?

Now if you don't want to be king, you can be pretty much any other character in the kingdom within reason.
You can be anything from Hank the Potato Farmer over Wizards (warning Magic will as always, be incredibly dangerous and generally not worth it), Mercenaries, Hedge Knights, Members of the Court to Personal Advisors and Noble Lords. So pretty much anything.

So what do i want to know from you?

Your Name
Your Bio: (Looks, Backstory, Position, basically something about your character)

And thats basically it.
Beyond that there will only be a few relevant rules:
BOLD your Actions
Actions will be resolved by a d100
and yeah everything else becomes clear once the game starts.

Starting next turn the Space Dwarfs will go into decline and basically revert to pre space flight. At that point Piratjoes Empire will get in.
However you can still potentially meet and uplift/tradewith/destroy them if you get to that part of the galaxy

I won't do a waitlist since it will be considerable amounts of time till we get to the second Cycle and by then most of the waitlist might be goners. Once the Second Cycle rolls around i will start a new round of applications instead.

On another Note Roboson and Crazyabe i am missing your actions.

yeah the tenth player came late.

again in but you have to wait for the second cycle.

micelus your action was invalid, i didn't see it earlier and i didn't want to hold up the entire game because of it. You can't put actions on your own creations unless they have a golden age. Thus you get two actions this turn.

Also forgot to add notable personages.

EDIT: Done. Now with Notable Personages existing, you can give them actions (and/or roleplay them) instead of nations

Last chance for crazyabe to post actions before i update.

Rob got the last spot for this cycle. Next cycle places are redistributed anew. So for now no new apps.

exactly what Nuke said. The idea is that this galaxy has seen no previous sentient life. Some may have evolved simultaneously next to each other as in several cases of other peoples empires but thats about it, they were not much more advanced than the rest of them. Just roll with it and adapt your app and you are in with the next update.
