especialy in the last 2 centuries, after all if the firelance machine was used it had to be used on SOMEONE whouldn't it, besides the R'unorian military probly exixts for a reason. any volenteers? I need to have an idea before I write to many more empresses as I'm planing to go al the way back to the unification with them.

Where exactly lies R'unor?

If you want R'unor to be a strong naval force we might arrange it that way that Aca-Santerra or the Empire of Korwein from Nybelmar once fought a High Sea War against it and your machine was used to destroy several island outposts.

There might be skirmishes between them ever since. At least I planned these empires to have strong navies, too.

If R'unor is east of Sarvonia we might have a slight problem to make it sound logic.
Other opponents might be Strata or Caltharia. Strata is a good naval force but Caltharia is not elaborated, yet. But it's at the east coast of Santharia.
I think we should not have the already elaborated countries always fight against eachother but also against the 'planned' ones, so I would recommend one of the yet unkown countries, wether Tribes on Sarvonia or in Nybelmar.

Anyone else volunteer? At least, Aca-Santerra is arrogant and strong enough to stand a fight without getting destroyed. But they might be majorily pi**ed off when being defeated. ;)


Are there other proposals, ideas?

Well I'm sure if someone was going to be a nuaghty competitor within territorial waters, the Stratanian navy would definately engage. Note that Stratania already has a war somewhere in history with Milkengrad (around 600 b.S.) and then it's rise to naval power was not of any meaning till approx. 1300 b.S. So if you need war before that time, I won't be there...

also you need a good reason, the war with Milkengrad was well planned and logical to happen, it shouldn't be any different here. And really we are a peaceful people ;)

Seems like a prime canidate... however R'unor is to the east, but that could explain why they didn't have many land battles.

I assume that your empire would have many smaller vessles while R'unor has a smaller number of more powerful ships(hight tech, lower natural resources) of coarse we need a when, a why, and locations for major battles.

Perhaps Aerrylium might be an interesting place to launch a war as it is meant to be moved farther south... (so both sides have a equally long distance)
Then we have the Wernam archipelago that nearly encircles Nybelmar and will be the colonial domain of its empires and is used as stepstones for further exploration to other shores.

But perhaps Artimidor has some idea about the distances he plan for the continents... maybe R'unor should be somewhere nearer Aerrylium? Depends on with whom they already have contact...

Ah, well. First: Read the R'unor entry for an exact location! It says: "Group of isles in the southern vicinity of the north-eastern part of the Sarvonian continent, far to the north of Denilou." This means that it is much closer to Northern Sarvonia (and eastern continents) than to everything else and that wars with Aeruillin or Nybelmar are very unlikely. Maybe they also had fights with certain barbarians of North Sarvonia or made assaults themselves on the mainland, because they tried to conquer these lands?

Was just thinking about it. R'unor is somewhat exotic and I don't know if they fit to Santharia but more to Nybelmar or other lands.
Santharia is more traditional and I havethe feeling it has already lots of wars in the last centuries whereas Nybelmar an Aerrylium have no history at all . That's kind of a problem. :/

After finishing Katya, I plan to concentrate and expand on the history of the Azhorhria, a desert tribe, living in the Ysthalinth part of Aeruillin. But that's not for sometime yet seeing how Katya is still meandering in Voldar! :lol  I'm not sure if the Azhorhria is a suitable race for going into genocidal war with, seeing how powerful your firelance machine is! The Azhorhria excel mostly in land and guerilla warfare so therefore I fear for them if they were to get into a skirmish with R'unor cause the tribes' the sort that'll fight to the last man even when overhwhelmed! You can't exterminate them, nooooooooo!, I need them for my next series!!! :eek

Why do we need wars anyway?? Why can't we all just be friends??? Make Love, Not War!

R'unorian's don't genocide... they assimulate. besides there a bit far away and it would be a war going nowera fast(r'unor whould whoop upon them at sea but there whoul land based starigy is meant for island hopping.) I agree about peac and the free love... but it's not realistic under the context of a world full of death violence and other vary bad things.

Hmmm... There currently exist no useable data on Cyhalloi and people living in these cold regions. But it would be possible to set up some sort of Viking fellows there, maybe? On the other hand: The construction of the Firelance machine suggests that the R'unorian's main intention was not to defend themselves but to conquer something, you know?

The other idea would be to move R'unor from the east to the west as they're still on their own and not mentioned in Santharian history. Aca-Santerra would be honored!

But... I fear Artimidor has other plans with you, Xenos. It seems you're planned in to populate Cyhalloi!  Poor Xenos! ;)

Ah, I would love to volunteer a branch of Brownies to get wiped out by your wonderous machine, but, alas! I see no way to make such a confrontation anything but laughable.

Perhaps if the focus of the war was shifted from just land and conquering to competition for a valuable resource or special object....this could mean that they would be willing to travel any distance to get to the battleground.......
