I'm going to have to withdraw due to schedule incompatibility. 8PM EST start was already a stretch for me, but 9PM is impossible.
And so it begins... The following is Day 1 of my report on the Western Region: Almost as soon as they met an uneasy armistice was made between the (southern) Hazars, the Rebjorn, the Vassari, and the Geikonians. This fragile peace would not last beyond a few generations. While the Hazars, Bjorn, and Vassari squeezed the Geikonians borders, the Geikonians, clever as always, secretly courted the powerful Southern Alliance growing in the south. In a botched attempt to claim territory near the Yssravannar Remnant, the Bjorn and Vassari suffered heavy losses to their fleets. This failure would ultimately lead to their undoing. The Geikonians and their southern allies had been waiting for the right moment and that moment that come. Striking swiftly, the Rebjorn and Vassari fell quickly to the Southern Alliance's might. While the Bjorn would ultimately be vassalized by the Geikonians, the latter would prove to be a benevolent master. In the coming decades, when the Northern Alliance was attacked by the Southern Hazars, the Geikonians and Bjorns would join that fight against the Hazars as well. However, in that war it would ultimately be the Bjorns who would benefit the most, effectively doubling their original territory. By comparison, the Vassari would fair much worse and would continue to suffer raids from the Skjaldborg for some time to come. In other news: there are rumors that the Southern Hazars may be annexed by their hated northern bretheren in the Hazar Star Realm. a quarrelsome lot, the three splinter Bothrian factions continue their civil war with no clear victor in sight. always looking for an opportunity to expand their reach, the Skjaldborg continues to skirmish with the Yssravannar Remnant. Next session set for 12pm EST on Saturday!
I'll try to be on but realistically i'd say the earliest i could be on is probably 4. Stuff to do. And holy crap it is hot already.
NEXT GAME SESSIONS ARE AS FOLLOWS: 8pm EST tonight (Saturday) 2pm EST tomorrow (Sunday) 7pm EST on Thursday
I don't know about thursday. Saturday i'll be on at some point but not noon. Warm weather = outside stuff. Probably getting dirt for expanding my raised garden bed. 4 feet x 4 feet going to 8 x 12
I'm going to have to bow out, the Key Board & Mouse Arthritis Alliance has seriously curtailed my gaming. I can barely lift the mouse,and at best I'm good for maybe an hour with slowly rising pain. Even while typing this, I am having to take a break and rest my arm/shoulder. However I have no problems with a game pad set up. Sorry...
8 would be better for me, but I don't think too much will happen in however much time it would take me to get there.
