Unfortunately AI technology of 2024 is only able to produce gibberish text so just pretend it reads something cool and awesome.
This is the story of immortals. And their everlasting search for vengeance.
A dark future has risen from the ashes of human greed. A world dominated by evil.
But still there are pretenders who fight for godhood. Through centuries of conflict. As empires have risen. And fallen.
Now an ancient battle will be resurrected.
An ancient score will be settled.
For the sake of love, blood, rebellion, vengeance.
There can be only one.
RPGHQ4 - The Search For Vengeance
One Game - One Thread, this is the new rule. (The Houris love it!)
One of the big advantage aside from running games in parallel is that we can have a list of everyone and their pretender.
This is very good for people with bad memories such as myself (as some of you may have already noticed).
Also @rusty_shackleford the autocomplete function when trying to mention people is very bad. Should be as easy as copy/pasting youtube URLs imo.
Game's gonna happen on a Illwinter Randomized World^TM in the Late Age.
You can sign up by posting your nation and pretender name here and then joining RPGHQ4 using our super secret password.

From the depths of despair, a Master shall arise,
Its divine voice shall echo through the land,
Bringing both destruction and renewal,
As the world is reborn from the ashes.

This thread has some potential for entertainment. I am now monitoring the situation.

I'm thinking of making this my pretender for my first game, terrible or usable?

the scales are good, the bless and chassis (immobile) are bad.

My trusty war council has given me valuable advice for the game, of which I'll post just the quick summary.
With the information you've provided about the other factions, here's a quick summary for your reference:
Ulm: Potential ally against magic-heavy factions, or exploitable through internal conflict and magic ban.
Gath: Risky ally, exploitable through internal conflict, human discontent, and their reliance on brute strength.
Jomon: Unstable potential ally, exploitable technology and chaotic influences. Appeal to their sense of order and samurai honor.
Man: Potential ally for research and anti-magic sentiment, but their scientific skepticism requires a nuanced approach. Exploit their fear of cursed magic and offer "solutions."
Remember, these are just starting points. The best strategy will depend on the specific situation and the actions of the other players.
Here are some additional tips for a successful campaign:
Gather Information: Spying and diplomacy will be key to understanding your opponents and identifying opportunities.
Forge Alliances: Temporary alliances can be powerful tools, but remember, trust is a scarce commodity in this world.
Exploit Weaknesses: Identify and exploit the weaknesses of your opponents, both internal and external.
Deception is a Weapon: Use misinformation, manipulation, and even staged events to turn the tide in your favor.
Be Prepared to Adapt: The situation will change constantly. Be flexible and adjust your strategies as needed.
I hope this helps! Good luck in your dark and complex game!
Man: Potential ally for research and anti-magic sentiment, but their scientific skepticism requires a nuanced approach. Exploit their fear of cursed magic and offer "solutions."
"They also wear strange hats referred to as fed'ora's. Known for personality disorders and feelings of grandeur."
Non-players in the spectator seats do not have a say.

I'm good with starting, I figured out how to increase province defense just today so that's good. I think I have enough of the basics to build a mountain of crossbows for someone to deal with!
I am sorry, I am very dense, Emphyrio quoted me speaking of rpghq4 but I have no idea what is this, what a pretender is or what is going on. If it is an online game experience or the likes, I doubt I can partecipate, especially not actively, but if it just needs a number of registered players to take off, then I would be happy to support!

@Emphyrio i understand spreading your propaganda in the game, but outside of it? Is this the new meta?

Praise Batterid, my start regions are not terrible/impossible!
I do have a very hard throne next to my capital, so not everything's great but it will do.
