Tales of the Terminus war, TCW (OOC discussions and updates)

With the scope of the Terminan Civil War expanding, its time I started to set up a separate thread. Spoilers this war will last a long time and have tie ins to other rp projects like the Bella aeternum thread (that’s temporarily paused due to rl) I will attempt to post a major update once a week, once every other week or once a month depending on RL. but will place short news in the meantime. This will be a slow moving RP, if you want lightning fast results this isn’t the RP for you.

Don’t worry about dogpiling, the warring parties are already balanced and their fortunes are largely dependent on the roll of the dice. However, the dice rolls don’t govern successes or failures of the roleplayers. It’s to give the city-states a bit more freedom and be a bit unpredictable. So I don’t believe there is a need to show a what if path though you might accuse me of railroading, sorry but I can’t have this war devolve into “well my army is stronger than yours” type of situation.

But don’t worry You’ll face many victories as well as many defeats, and you don’t need to worry about your nation being attacked by the warring parties as consent rules still apply. Unless you are okay with being attacked.

One last thing this OOC page is for those of us not on the discord, who are interested in participating in the TCW, but please try to be creative and realistic in wanting to join than just wanting to join for the sake of joining since this is a collaborative story at the end of the day.
