The Cauldron

Welcome to a western region surrounded by cliffs, referred to as The Cauldron.

1. You can start on any edge hex.
2. Choose a race typical of pioneering America. White, Black, Chinese, Native, ect.
3. You can do pretty much anything that is thematically appropriate. Things will have build times and there won't be any stored resources for simplicity's sake.

Many Players
Sporadic Updates

Races
White = MafiaScum
Native = Bay 12
Black = Space Battles

Clarification
- Each player is in control of one human character.
- No factories, mines, ect as I'm not doing anything related to resources.
- As long as you are a decent human being outside the game you do not need to be one inside.

Extra Rules
4. Choose a first and last initial.
5. Choose your first action!
6. Please use your initials when making an action "XY does this".
7: You can't build on a hex with stuff already on it.
8: One character per person.
9: A sheriff can be changed by majority vote. If you join a town proposition, the proposer is the defacto sheriff, and decides who can join.

Hints
- Part of the fun is figuring out how to play!
- Time of day and weather are important.

Tips
- I'll post updates at least 2 hours apart.
- You can make single word shoutouts that will be viewable on the map.
- FYI if you guys want to do your own currency that's fine. As long as I'm not involved in tracking it. If someone's going to do that they may wish to make a bank.
- You are allowed to repurpose your structures it will only take a turn to retrofit.
- if I skipped your action point it out ASAP.
- Be creative. I am weather god and world eye, it's up to YOU to expand the game.

Alright. Go ahead and choose the first and last initial of your guy or gal, add a backstory if you want, and choose what you will do first. There's no resource gathering just build times.

Is this connected to offsite things?
Let's go with K.S., backstory of no idea, and first thing to build... probably some semblance of civilisation? Village? Farm maybe? Farming village? We have the people for that right?

build an Ole quarry

Any issue with me regarding you as White, then?

What is an ole quarry? If you mean to set something up to collect oil this is over a hundred years before the common use of oil.
If you mean some kind of Ore Quarry, that is fine that will just mean that things that have to do with stone will take less time for you to build.


See my next post.

Eh, you know what just to not confuse the issue of resource gathering I'm going to say no quarry. Anything else?

I assumed you meant Hispanic. Did you actually mean a Spaniard? If so I'll just have you as white. But currently I have you as Hispanic.
