Unity is going to be a great guilded game. The built in database is awesome. The turn rate if staying the same is 20 per hr. max at 150. Each person can have 2 realms. more privs to assinging members of guilds. privs to assign the views of your guilds scouts.

this was just how the testing was so dont know for certain how they will be now. Im excited about Unity and MFR will be there under Angelique. If shes still there?

Don't know if change is good or bad. But I do know I would be sad to see the game disapper entirely. A feel a thank you for staying on is in order.

One thing I'm not sure if I mentioned in my post as it relates to Unity - you will be allowed to create TWO realms in unity. They must be of the same faith, but they do not need to be in the same guild.

A la, realm a is in SOUL, realm b can be in SOUL2 as long as they are both the same faith.

We figured this may help with the merging of the three games and people who have loyalties to different guilds.

New game, new rules sounds like fun to me.

I know there will be a lot of guilds coming together from the different games and it may take a little while to figure out what guilds will make the move and who will be in which ones.

So for the members of SOL, could you please pm me and let me know if you are interested in returning or not. SOL started with 3 members, and if there are 3 or more who wish to return we will be back, if you wish to move on with your other guilds, perhaps we'll meet in battle some day. Regardless, SOL won't be starting at the beginning of the age, part of the reason for our existence was to help balance the game, so if we do come back it will be to the faith at the one week point with the fewest followers, so you have plenty of time to make your decision to return or not. If we aren't back it has been a pleasure fighting with you all, and if we are, get ready for a war, cause there will be lots of them!

SD,

Will the story be tweaked for this game at all or will it be the same deal? I'm just wondering so we can submit our guild. Last I heard Naggy and Nether and I were going to start a guild and I'm guessing that still the plan...

I think the reasons for the merging of games is sound and I commend you guys on all the extra work you put into all the modifications. The 2 realms to take care of responsibilities is a nice touch. Now...If they are in 2 separate guilds will they be able to send money to or ally with your 2nd dom? Also with 2 doms each is there going to be a player or kingdom cap per guild? For example, Fervent at last ages player base and 2 kingdoms each could have almost 50 kingdoms in it. While that would bring back fond memories of more populated days I don't know where the balance should be for playability. That's your guys dept.

Perhaps a thread somewhere that each guild can post which faith they intend to bring their guild to is in order? That way it can be gauged how balanced the faiths #s are turning out by the merging guilds that never existed together before.

Change is always good.
Hopefully everyone will embrace the change & the way the game is evolving.

I'll be bringing my guild to Unity, as soon as we are able to transfer existing guilds into the game.

Having had the opportunity to test it, I'm looking forward to playing on a larger scale with all the new features for guilds.

2 realms will be a nice thing to have, to give folks an opportunity to participate in 2 different guilds of the same faith, if they so choose.

Thanks for all the hard work you all have put into Evernight, and the willingness to keep the game alive, hopefully for many more years to come.

Kudos on all the work... sounds cool!

Though one quick question:

How many kingdoms will be necessary for a guild to be ranked?

So confused bout what i'm gonna do now though... :(

Can't be in the two places i said i'd be... *grumbles*

Dark Horse,
Storyline is currently as is, this is more to do with the fact that we didnt have time to develop it, as well as making as many code changes. Feel free between you to come up with some world ideas. The Gods remain as Angelique, Leto and Barnabas. There will be the standard Human, Elven, Goblin communities with sporadic visits from the Droben, Vampire, Elemental, Centaur, Sidhe and Dwarven races. Any storyline ideas will be more than welcome.

Mal,
the 20 turns an hour was a test rate, thanks for reminding me of it. Unity is going to start initially with 4ph max150 rate.

Arioch,
The thread for guilds to establish where to go idea is a good one, it will be in the Unity forum soon. We have not contemplated a guild membership cap at this point.

Karhedron,
Guilds are currently ranked with 4+ members.

Well that depends. Which post is true?

Do you have a girlfriend that tested the game, or are you married? Or are you married with a girlfriend.... ;>

2 realms per account in Unity. If you get caught cheating (multiple accounts) then be prepared to be removed. If you are a GM and caught cheating, say byebye to your guild. Same rules that we have had for years.

Shh, you weren't supposed to mention his girlfriend to his wife! (Hi Harm 8) ). I trust you still have your list of couples playing the game Soul Demon or we we need to resubmit?

Erm...Kaz? What exactly do you mean by "sporadic visits from the Droben, Vampire, Elemental, Centaur, Sidhe and Dwarven races"? Will they only be available to create sometimes?

Arioch, It's mentioned in the 'What Is Unity' thread.

Basically each time we reset, a random faith will be marked as active. Human, Elven and Goblin will always be an option, the 4th race will be random

Mal, All races with low magic are unable to cast fog. That includes Human and Goblin (if goblins can cast thats a bug lol). high magic races can cast on themselves. Elves can cast on others
