The mountains and woods spread over the land. The subcontinent grew hot and dry. The world lived on.

Shape Land (Mountains): -3
Shape Land (Forest): -3
Shape Climate *2 (due to size) (Isle, Hotter & Drier): -4




Two fun facts about me: I don't like circular biomes and I suck at drawing trees.

I have plasma weaponry, and am using it. Mostly.

Also, I'm having problems. It keeps saying it's out of video memory before I can actually do anything.

Um.

Ah.

P.S. I'm starting the Base Assault mission. I realized partway through the squad selection process that Cnl. Meier was still going to be in the hospital for a couple of days, but I went on with just Cnl. Levine, Cnl. Zander, and assorted non-heroes. Half the squad has plasma, the two assaults have alloy cannons, and Levine...he has a normal sniper rifle okay? I evidently didn't have enough.

Wish me luck.

You know, I suspect that this game will get a lot more interesting once we get out of the "Shape the Land" phase.

We probably shouldn't go there just yet, but just sayin'...

((1. Not sure what you mean.
2. Did you leave before or after Grate turned into a living manipulator meltdown?
3. RC has a list he's made. You can probably still join. Unless you mean the cleanup crews; you can't join those, because cleanup is basically done.))

I assume RTD is included, otherwise I doubt people would vote for me.
They definitely wouldn't vote for piecewise if that was the case. He hasn't run a single non-RtD that I've seen.

EDIT: Updated votes. Should I arrange them by number of votes? Currently they're in the order they were nominated.
Yes.

Also, Spinal_Taper for YAFB.

* Sean Mirrsen is still sad about the loss of the RTD board's previous Magnum Opus...

’Do not be so sarcastic, troll. I was merely answering a question."
"Can you truly answer a question without saying anything we did not know? After all, if we already know the answer, why ask the question?"

He turns and walks away from the group, before moving back around to face them. ’As some of you are clearly not familiar with the Varden, allow me to enlighten you. They are an empire of men that hold that their lineage flows from the man they claim was the first mage and tamer of magic - Vardus. They presume that this tale is true, and thus hold other races in minimal regard, only slightly below men of other lines. It is true, they possess some strange artifacts that would require most powerful magic to create - but so do many other groups.
Luckily, they would rather dwell in their marble cities than get their hands dirty dealing with us ‘others’ as they like to call us. Or unluckily, depending on the viewpoint of the individual, and how eager they are for an excuse to attack.’

Anyway, consider some sort of bridge/stepping stone combination, and extend the village on both sides of the river. Sure, it will only be accessible during floods, but it will be a benefit in the long run.
+1
Why would it only be accessible during floods?

I'm going to debate about the metal hafts bits though. Assuming that is set in the equivalent of 12-century Europe (as implied by the Robin Hood comments), then langets and metal hafts should be fairly uncommon. All of the examples I've seen of metal shafts and langets seem to be from the late 14th century and onwards.
1. I said more common, not ubiquitous.
2. There is magic and you're debating over a difference of two centuries?

Also vote for dark precipice if only to make the game as light and soft as possible after that.
