blackdeathgr Posted January 16, 2016 Posted January 16, 2016 Welcome to Oleon. You choose the best Empire. Ofc he did! A WISE choice... Quote
Gideon Posted January 17, 2016 Posted January 17, 2016 (edited) I took the liberty of re-sizing the Oleon banner for my signature (I hope that was ok, whoever made it?). In my signature it now links to the first post of this thread. (My signature is however getting bloated now, I need to get rid of some of the thumbnails of old builds there...) If you want to use it you can find it at http://www.acc.umu.s...leon_medium.png Edited January 17, 2016 by Gideon Quote
SkaForHire Posted January 17, 2016 Posted January 17, 2016 I always liked this version better anyway: There are like 5 more up there if you scroll right and left in my Flickr. Oleon has a lot of options for banner haha. oleban3 by skaforhire, on Flickr oleban5 by skaforhire, on Flickr Quote
Gideon Posted January 18, 2016 Posted January 18, 2016 (edited) I like the second version a lot! Much easier to read the text. And Flickr already has the resized versions, forgot about that... Even the thumbnail 100x20 of that is fairly readable, which may come in handy. Edited January 18, 2016 by Gideon Quote
SkaForHire Posted January 18, 2016 Posted January 18, 2016 I feel like the gold rimmed and silver rimmed banners are like magiceye pictures, if you stare at them right, you see it in 3D and it is clear. I think I jokingly called the one with the waves (oleban5) the heavenly banner in the leadership forum. Quote
blackdeathgr Posted January 22, 2016 Posted January 22, 2016 Oleanders are way too quiet these days... Shall i presume we are all trying to catch up with the turn of the month?!?!? P.S: Dont forget that whatever you build this month, nets you income the coming month. So, nine more days gentlemen and ladies!!! Keep building! Quote
robinnilsson403 Posted January 22, 2016 Posted January 22, 2016 I have an idea of what to build, but I don't understand the rules for property at all. I am considering to just build for the fun of it, but it would be fun to build an economy as well. Quote
blackdeathgr Posted January 22, 2016 Posted January 22, 2016 You can build whatever you want as free builds. Usually people start with some form of plantation or workshop etc. The first two will get you a sure income of 10 DB each. Then comes licencing. Licencing basically means you "acquire" the property and it starts giving you money. You can licence your first (small) property for free and that's why most people free-build properties they want to licence later. For more info you can read here: http://www.eurobrick...howtopic=118540 Quote
Tezclatipoca Posted January 22, 2016 Posted January 22, 2016 A good way to build (as freebuilds I am saying) is just to make a story and try to tell us this story. It will make you build some freebuilds very easily and you will look after in this build stock what to pick in order to earn money. You don't have to bother you with the rules at all. And if you're not sure you'll not walk on someone toes, you will just need to ask. Ther is always someone here to answer ! Quote
blackdeathgr Posted January 23, 2016 Posted January 23, 2016 Whoever wants to licence a ship for the next month (for free) to test the MCRA aspect of the game, can licence the following merchant ship http://www.eurobrick...howtopic=120211 It's on a first come, first served priority basis Quote

P.S: Dont forget that whatever you build this month, nets you income the coming month. So, nine more days gentlemen and ladies!!! Keep building! I've built an entry to Challenge 1A and a small Oleander free-build which are waiting to be photographed (will do it together with a GoH build which needs to be posted in January), but then I got entangled with an unsuccessful experiment for Challenge 2A (trying some crazy angles to make a portion of a star fort) and real life in general so my forum time has been approaching zero... Edited January 23, 2016 by Gideon Quote
Khorne Posted January 23, 2016 Posted January 23, 2016 Yay, I made a build ! It's not much and it won't grant me much, if any, DB, I guess, but it's a start . I'll have to try and build me some property... Quote
blackdeathgr Posted January 27, 2016 Posted January 27, 2016 Dear Oleanders, I know that most of us are landlubbers but please state whether you are going to use MCRA (trade shipping game mechanics/pirate hunting) for the coming month (February), so as to assign ships to members not having one and desire to do so. Little Hermes and some other king's ships can be licenced. Dont let all the trade fell to (for the time being) ally Eslandola! Quote
Gideon Posted January 28, 2016 Posted January 28, 2016 (edited) A small attempt to flesh out the Oleander religious practices: Blessing of Poseidon (Didn't realize until I posted the pic here however that I forgot the beard on the statue while rushing to get this finished before I was going to set up the photo gear...maybe an updated photo will come after next photo session ) Edited January 28, 2016 by Gideon Quote
Tezclatipoca Posted January 28, 2016 Posted January 28, 2016 ahah ! That's a nice attempt ! No beard makes Poseidon a young novice ! I didn't realise you forgot the beard until you mentionned it ! Quote
Captain Genaro Posted January 28, 2016 Posted January 28, 2016 Dear Oleanders, I know that most of us are landlubbers but please state whether you are going to use MCRA (trade shipping game mechanics/pirate hunting) for the coming month (February), so as to assign ships to members not having one and desire to do so. Little Hermes and some other king's ships can be licenced. Dont let all the trade fell to (for the time being) ally Eslandola! Seeing as my ship will not be ready for the upcoming MCRA, I am willing to sail one of the other licensed ships. Is there a group PM you could add me to? (Didn't realize until I posted the pic here however that I forgot the beard on the statue while rushing to get this finished before I was going to set up the photo gear...maybe an updated photo will come after next photo session ) No beard is nothing short of heresy! Obviously the sculptor must be burnt at the stake for this unforgivable act. Quote

Is there a group PM you could add me to? Cpt Genaro there isn't a PM right now but you can always licence Little Hermes, choose route and you will be escorted by a relevant number of our 3 warships. Obviously the riskier the route, the more warships will escort you. Remember that Little Hermes speed is 2 though (meaning you have limitations regarding traveling distance). Quote

Looking at the ship index, it appears the Little Hermes already has a licence. I just want to make sure that I'm not about to licence something twice. Quote
Maxim I Posted January 29, 2016 Posted January 29, 2016 Looking at the ship index, it appears the Little Hermes already has a licence. I just want to make sure that I'm not about to licence something twice. Well it hasn't right now :p I wrote it has a licence because if nobody else licenced the ship, Blackdeathgr would licence it himself by the end of the month :) So feel free and go ahead! Quote

And bring your captain as well if you like, in order to give her a personal touch :-) Quote

Capn Frank Posted January 29, 2016 Posted January 29, 2016 Maxim i will kill you! Hahaha! One duel at a time. Quote
blackdeathgr Posted January 29, 2016 Posted January 29, 2016 One duel at a time. Oh, yeah, i 've learned my lesson BTW, regarding MRCA, we Oleanders have three class 5 warships at our disposal for escorting or hunting (or fighting) purposes so for now our trade ships will be safe Quote

But seriously, someone in leadership needs to send those ships out via the MRCA form. Quote
blackdeathgr Posted January 29, 2016 Posted January 29, 2016 as long as somebody remembers to send it with their trade ships... hahaha. But seriously, someone in leadership needs to send those ships out via the MRCA form. Currently organizing ourselves a trade run. More on that on your screens By March we will all be geniuses regarding MCRAs! Quote
