The Ireem Chronicles

his War is not over yet but as we had many that did not understand the rules new ones have been set. All players who choose to participate in the War need read and agree to these rules. Then contact one of the leaders and let them know you want your name added to the list of players. If you are not listed as a player in the war you will not be allowed to fight in the battles.


The Rules of War

We have held a war conference, and the leaders of the knights and every predator group except the bedouin, have come to these terms:

1. War will commence at 12:01 am SLT, Dec. 26. (00:01 SLT)

2. Those players who wish to participate in the war must sign up before war begins. Once you sign up, you agree to the following terms:

a. You will change the NAME in your tag to state: WAR to indicate that you are fighting the war. You can keep other text there, as well, but make sure the word WAR is at the beginning, easy to spot in the heat of battle.

b. Once captured, you will remain captured, or will change your tag to state: INJURED - OUT OF WAR. Once you are out of the war, you will not fight any of the battles. If a knight, you may continue to protect prey at that time, but may only attack the war enemies in that case. Please be very conscientious on this point, so there are no problems that the leaders have to step in to handle.

c. Except for the djinn, follow your group leader's by taking whatever side in the fight they determine. If you are slaver, fight with the Undead. If you are Magi, fight with the Knights. If you do not wish to take these sides, either wait the war out, or consider changing tags if you want to fight. The djinn may choose sides, but please indicate in your tag, which side you fight on. We are assuming the dungeoners will fight on the side of the knights.

According to kos rules, players do not need to participate in group activities, but MUST NOT interfere with them. If you are not fighting in the war for your own team, do not fight for the opposing team unless you change tags.

3. Each group will have a chain of command posted on the group blog. If the group leader is not online, decisions can be made by the second in command.

4. No fighting in the city. The citizens will not take part in this war. If your opponent runs to the city to eat, DO NOT FOLLOW HIM. Eating is okay. Fighting in the city, for the purposes of this war, is not.

This is a very important point, as fighting in the city causes confusion with the citizens which, while it might provide interesting RP, is not something we can easily deal with during this war. NO FIGHTING IN THE CITY for purposes of this war.

5. Report your wins to your group leader, so the numbers can be properly tabulated, when we determine the winning side.

6. Feel free to kill Jonathan Moriarty at any time, for his failure to choose a side for the bedouin. No safety for Switzerland.

7. Failure to adhere to the rules will result in penalties by one's own group, as determined by the group leaders. This might pretty much mean just getting the stuffing kicked out of you by your own group, which will be very unpleasant, so please please please play a good game and don't cheat!

The group leaders want a good game. And sure, we want to win, but we are not willing to cheat for a win. Do not cheat, and we'll have a better game.

8. The winning side will be determined by the group leaders, and we will also decide when the war is to be finished.

9. There will be prizes for the best players. Others may offer prizes as well, but I personally will award:

$1000 k for the one with the most enemy captures (yeah, yeah, Con, that will probably be yours...)

$1000 k for whoever captures Aizen and brings him to the tower so we can bring him back to life and save Ireem!
