Can elves use carts??

[Brytta Léofa]

holy monkeys I need to get back in the game

Question:
If the mounts pull the cart - how do I tell the mounts to rest when they run out of movement points?
   Would I need to unharness them and then make them rest manually?

Is there an advantage to hitching multiple mounts to carts that permit this? (Do they get less tired?)

Can you tell us anything about carts and combat?

How do you store a cart? Just leave it in the wagon yard and hope no one comes by and takes it?

Be nice to have at least one of these options:
- store a cart at a stable, get a ticket (like stabling a mount)
- carts leave the game when their pilot quits (like quitting with a hitched mount)

Can elves use carts??

Seems pretty clear-cut to me: no to riding, no to piloting. Elves can already use mounts as pack animals, so leading a mount that's pulling a cart would be fine, if that were codedly possible.

Can elves use carts??

Nah. Elves don't move while seated.
Ehm. At least not intentionally.

I too would love to know about cart combat.

Roman style chariot fight anyone?

[valeria]

I do hope it's possible to lead a cart.

[Brokkr]

I too would love to know about cart combat.

Logic would dictate it would be similar to fighting on a siltskimmer, minus all the fun insta-death parts.

If you can only unharness if you are the pilot, this means you have to incapacitate the pilot or every one of the animals to be able to stop a cart (and everyone on it) continuing to keep moving? (because you need to be able to ride it to be able to use the unharness command) I could see a lot of comically huge pilots who probably don't really need more carrying capacity when they're already commonly carrying around furniture chests with their invisible second pair of arms while fighting

Maybe there could be any way to attack carts or wagons themselves (targeting rope connecting the harness, the wheels, or lighting the things on fire! ) without needing staff to be free to do special stuff if these are intended to be a more common thing to see around?

Maybe if you attack the mounts they get unharnessed, or are unable to move/pilot away if they happen to be in combat.

Oh and with my idea also people with wagonmaking skill could have a new business+plot hooks by being available to repair them after they have been attacked maybe

Maybe could also be a nice idea to put in the option to sabotage carts/wagons while in guarded areas too (with risk of it being noticed) or someone who is actually inside the cart or wagon can actually cut the harness too while they are on board making it unable to move again until it gets fixed and maybe need a rescue group to come

(the &t= for skipping to to time doesn't work at the moment too)

This actually makes me think, is it culturally acceptable for elves to board a moving wagon if it's to kill everyone on it/destroy it?

[Barsook]

Awesome job once again staff!

[Emme]

I do hope it's possible to lead a cart.

It is not, currently. They must all be piloted.

How do you store a cart? Just leave it in the wagon yard and hope no one comes by and takes it?

The same type of ticketing system available for skimmers are now available for carts in all city wagonyards.

There is a ticketing system for skimmers!? So awesome!

While we're here skimmers should allow people to stand and ride around!

Re: carts, this is amazing.

Thanks for clarifying!

[Brokkr]

They do.

[only_plays_tribals]

-Mounts leaving the room without the cart don't break carts anymore.
  (flee, summon, hands of wind, fear, etc...)

Sounds like kids are already having fun with new toys. Hehehe.

"The noble houses excepting Winrothol aligned themselves with these Loyalists"

Noooo! Not Winrothol! Rhodran would have never

[Barsook]

I would like to hear stories from the PC's who stored that the staff perhaps wrote.

[lostinspace]

Winrothol was the only slaving House in the north, what is the state of slavery in the area? We're most of them made Listless and is there a market for slaves in Morin's?

[Krath]

Does this mean Sujaal's academy in Tuluk are a bunch of listless warriors?

[Malken]

I can't believe that the 300+ children I've had while playing in Tuluk are now a bunch of Listless jerks.

[Brokkr]

Only the human ones.

[Delirium]

[Delirium]

p.s. I am so glad to finally see something released that explains Tuluk. Thank you staff!

[Knight of Knives]

P.S. Delirium this always explained Tuluk:

They do.

  Wouldn't recommend it!
