I think in that case you would talk to your NPC and he would send a message along. Can't really make promises for your lord kinda thing.

The turn update will give an idea of where other factions are. Similarly the map will change as will the political map. They can only move one square. Rumours will come from the turn fluff.

You can only talk to your NPC. Some neutral NPC's may approach you depending on situation and relevance. If they see advantage or are blatantly about to be attacked and such. Similarly taking towns may cause events involving locals. If you want to ally with another faction you have to discuss terms and present them to your own NPC.

This is still a war game so there is violence but how you act changes how the world acts.

How long is one turn in game time? A week?

Edit: Also could we get a list of who is in what faction? Just so we know who we can send messages to for diplomacy.

First page of the join a faction thread has a list of players and their factions.

And the in-game turn length?

[Mogsam]

Week. Turns are Tuesday to 11.59pm Saturday GMT.

Sundays and Mondays are updates.

You realise I was asking for the In Character time for a turn right? So how long I would say a march it was from one place to another when it’s one turn’s move. I can't tell if you thought I was asking for the OOC turn length, since you appear to have listed that.

[Mogsam]

Oh sorry. Again about a week and it is currently late autumn but it's snowing and cold enough to be winter.

There are eight days in an Empire week, by the way. And the election will be held on the winter solstice.

Makes for a LOOOONG work week for a mercenary....LOL.

[GamesPoet]

Suspect you can handle it.

So that's where that Beatles song is from !

Ok, we're looking at turn 2. I want to move, but don't want a fight where I'm going. I want to talk to the faction that I highly suspect will be going the same place I am. I would ride in with a white flag, signifying I want to talk about an alliance. How do I do that? We already had a problem at Calden, when I didn't want ANY hostilities, and I don't want it repeated.

[Mogsam]

If you want to have diplomacy with another faction then you can just write to them via pm.
