So the battle starts and the blood begins to flow, but before we get ahead of ourselves and go plunder vulnerable counties and cities. Let me first explain how we're opening this...most wonderful site. First and foremost, the diplomacy phase will start immediately on opening, so...NOW!
During the first diplomacy phase, certain requirements are going to have to be met before we are allowed to move onto the more fun, exotic military phase. During this initial phase, we will be covering a specific criteria, that all factions must complete before we have the story prepared to engage in our wonderful wars.
So, why are we having these requirements? Primarily as an incentive to initiate the site straight away with good story development and plot. Besides, It's a good time for everyone to get accustomed to all of our new features and rules before the battles begin, which I suspect many people will love.
So what are these requirements? Well, below you'll see each kingdom name and a small message posted beneath. The message is basically what you are required to do. The messages are vague and there are countless way you can go about achieving the requirements without straining yourself. But they are required because of how we wish to conduct the site with a story and meaningful plot.
Cao Cao's Force
A confrontation with Li Jue and Guo Si is required before we can move to the military phase. This cannot be an open engagement, meaning a battle, though a general declaration is allowed, for the purpose of the next phase, if a war is what you seek. If not, this can be something as simple as a written letter with the intent to demean and dishonour the two traitors. It is also advised, but not compulsory – for you to initiate some form of diplomatic talk with EITHER Yuan Shao or Lu Bu.
Liu Bei's Force
For the site to move on to the next phase, you must first acquire diplomatic relations with Liu Biao and start a general story-line. You must also declare your 'plans and ambitions' during this diplomatic phase.
Sun Ce's Force
As Sun Ce, it is required for you to do two things. The first is to initiate relationships with Yuan Shu, once that is done you must 'plan' for an expedition against Jian Ye's Liu Yong.
Lu Bus's Force
You must consult with Kong Rong, and plan your move to take the city of Bei Hai. You must also initiate diplomatic relations with EITHER Yuan Shao or Cao Cao.
Once all of these requirements are made, the site will have a good enough opening story to lead us into the first batch of fights. After that we will resume the standard 2 week dip to 2 week military phases.
I hope this isn't too much of a problem for you. I hope you all enjoy the site and thank you again for being so patient with us whilst we made the finishing touches.
Regards
