Why I Don't Play in Storm, something to think about

[Cindy42]

yeah... i actually remember something like... darn, this is five feet away from being doable for my character. bleh.

red storm's easily my favorite town; and you do actually see the occasional person there so, i'm thinking, if i try playing at red storm, maybe more people will end up trying to play.

missing out on good roleplay will get on my nerves, but there's always peak time.

If it doesn't work out, you can still hire the Byn to get you out of there.

I don't play in Storm, because:

I rarely have an IC situation that leads me there... ever.

START THERE, DUH!

The problem with Red Storm is that you can pretty much just reach it walking distance from Allanak.

People drop there to make money the known way, then ride/walk back to 'Nak to find RP.

For Red Storm to be it's own thing, it needs to be waaaaaaaaaay further.

Play in Red Storm East, instead!

I'd say about a footstep.

Eh? Eh?

I'd say you should find out where RSE is (and how far it is from other population centers) in game rather than on the board.

I've kinda been surprised about..

Ah shit. Probably cant talk about this IG..

But yeah. More fringe places pls.

[Akaramu]

Hire the Byn to show you the way. They'll even get you there (probably) without killing you for your boots.

What might be generally known, especially in the south or to great-grandpa:

1575 (Year 35 Age 21)
Several merchant houses make silt skimmer expeditions into the Sea of Silt, pressing into the unknown reaches south of Red Storm. Sometime during the trip, they attract the attention of the enigmatic and impossibly large Silt Giants, also known as "true giants." The giants chase the skimmer expedition back to shore, making landfall in Red Storm East. Over the course of the next few years, a few giants, so tall that their silhouettes are visible for miles, settle in Red Storm East, driving out the farmers and workers who, until then, produced much of Allanak's grain. Famine sweeps through the southern parts of the known world as grain becomes all but unavailable in Allanak and elsewhere.

I'd actually be down with one center of civilization with -tons- of outlying villages, towns, paths, so on and so forth.  One sprawling metropolis, kind of, that actually naturally fades into wilderness as it goes.  Make crime easier in fringes, spread out the playerbase from massive in the middle to median in the fringe, to minimal in the wilderness...I think that makes for -more- conflict instead of less, as has been assumed.  Everyone's fighting for the same things.

i might have an idea of what you saw.

there's a lot of surprises out in the wilder parts, eh? i was even surprised myself. that's part of the beauty of the backwards faraway villages.

Red storm is to Allanak what  Mexico is to San Diego.
