Tostig:
I see no reason why it shouldn't be possible. Here's a quick (and I mean quick. I'm also not entirely sober, which doesn't help.) mock up of what we could pull off. Not knowing what to write, I C&Ped some Shakespeare:



If I was doing it properly I'd probably use one of the detached seals they had, to be more authentic, and perhaps a more medieval typeface, or otherwise hand write it (my handwriting's pretty cursive, as conspicuous can attest. I just can't get it to work as well on my tablet), and make the Karl Franz either more signature like, or an elaborate set of initials. Making it a .png would probably help with the edges, but at the expense of some types of IE not being able to handle it. What are we looking for, cartoony or authentic?

And if some fluffbunny could script it, or at least give me some basics to elaborate upon, it would help.

The reason I was thinking of the woodies was because they would support us in not allowing the cheese munchers in taking our land.

you dont use napalm to make toast? how else can you?

Anyways, @tostig   cool letter thing

Powder Monkey:
Wait a minute, do we (= the majority of the forum members who are going to participate in the campaign) actually want the wood elves to be our allies? I can see the benefits, but they would object to many of our already decided upon (I think...) mission statements: Burning tainted areas, building forts in the forest and clearing all the nice shady trees next to the roads come to mind... I would also not bet on them to be excited over an alliance with us short sighted, technology worshipping environmentists (No, I don't think this is actually a word too  :icon_confused:)

With High Elves and Dwarfs I see much common ground: All of those just want the crown to be in the hands of someone who could stop it from wreaking havoc on the old world, either destroying, hiding or using it in case it could be done for the good of all. We just have slightly different opinions as to who exactly that would be...  :icon_biggrin:

The Wood Elves, however, are just pissed that everybody is suddenly galivanting around their precious forest, leaving candy bar wrappings and pulling off twigs of cute little trees. This group of tree-disturbers would also include us, the Empire, as I see the WE as almost entirely neutral to the world outside their realm.

Whew, this turned into a much post than I intended. Do not think I entirely oppose the idea of an alliance with the WE, in fact I like the thought! But it would be difficult in terms of fluff as well as in terms of actually getting the WE players and the rest of our Empire players here to cooperate. If someone comes up with a reasonable fluff for a cooperation and the majority here is favoring it, then by all means proceed!

Your forest loving, tree jumping PM

Powder Monkey:
Another thought about alliances: One race that would more likely be supporting the Empire are the Lizardmen! They are still undecided as of who to support, but maybe we can convince them to help us keeping the crown from falling into the wrong hands (= not ours). We could together with some Lizard communities secure the crown and either destroy it ourselves (and with a little help by a second generation slann or two) or see to it that it reaches the dwarfs for them to bother themselves with it.

Or another idea, unfortunately to big to pull of for fan communities: Why not secretly send the crown to the Lizardmen for them to bury it in the deepest vault of the biggest pyramid, where the heaviest slann will permanently sit on it while taking a nap for a few thousand years? This would end this nemesis crown business once and for all, because who would want to wear a crown no matter how powerful once a giant toad sat on it for hundreds of years?  :smile2:

I'm getting carried away...

Your nemesis PM

Jerok:
I believe that, since it follows our Mission Statement, we should also try for an alliance with the Dwarfs. A Power Triangle of Ogres, Human and Dwarfs (Tallest to Shortest, obviously) would be great and reasonably fluffy.

Of course, the WE would be interesting to ally with, but I don't like the thought of having to attend tea parties the night before a battle... i'd prefer good dwarven ale in front of the magically transmitted Blood Bowl match.

I'll be putting this in the voting thread...
