LCC-Loreos Official Faction Thread.

[Mark of Falworth]

FACTION INFO



From the arid desert in the west to the grassland in the east, Loreos dominates most of central Roawia. The proud and traditional Loreesi are unrivaled in their ability to harness the power of horses, a tradition passed on and honed to perfection through generations.

Due to the harsh conditions and flat land, castles in Loreos are mostly larger constructions of sandstone and mortar. Creations in this faction should be inspired by real world old Middle East and Southern Europe.

Leadership


Prince Jarius Lorean.
The people of Loreos are the most united faction in the lands of Roawia. The duty of leading this arid province has fallen to Jarius Lorean, The Prince of the Desert. He leads by maintaining the love and respect of his men, who would do anything for the heir of Lorean. But he is a leader in his own right, vigilantly defending the borders of Loreos from all who dare to oppose it. His loyalty to the King is great, though others may scorn the King for his less-than-colorful reign. The Prince would do any deed, no matter the difficulty, for the King’s honor, but more importantly, for the glory of Loreos.

Hail, Sir Mencot!
Matters of importance:
Clobbering Garhims
Smashing lenfels
and bashing outlaws.



Not that I'm encouraging outright war

[Robin Longstride]

All hail Loreos!
I can't wait for the first contest!

[Hayden.]

It will be a Inter faction one, probable just for fun or to find out who's the best Loreesi so far, ether way I hope it won't be to far in the future.

[Bentoft]

I look forward to the next challenge. BTW: will there be a winner of the CIC? Even though it is never ending challenge.

Is Prince Jarius Lorean Marks new character? What happened to Mark of Falworth? Lorean was also the name of the original founder of Loreos, and thats a bit confusing. BTW: Maybe the Lore should be placed in the intro / FAQ thread.

How about province maps? Should we make a special Loreos map, so we could start talking about where on the map our characters live?

All hail Loreos!

Bentoft,
-I believe that LCC is just a forever going contest, and there willl never be a winner.If there is one though, It will be us!
-The character is just the ruler of Loreos, and heir to it, while he is descended from Lorean he is not him.
Mark's in-game character will be Mark of Falworth, this was really just to tell you who your (in-game) leader is.
-Finally, Province maps, I'm okay with you making one for you province/ fiefdom/ lands but I'm not sure, Wait for Mark to reply, to get a definite answer.

[Pedro Ivo]

All hail Loreos! Hurray!
Greetings fellow Loreesi!

I come here with a few questions:
1) Im workking on my CIC and I would like to know if there's a some restriction with the foliage? I know Loreos is in a desert, but we also have some green areas, right?
and
2) Can I make a few light cavalry as scouts? It wont be "out"of our style, right?

Well, that's it! I intend to post today my CIC

EDIT:

I'll use this post to keep track of my Points

CIC entry = 5 pt
LC1 entry = 2 pt
LC2 entry = 2 pt
LC2 win = 5 pt
LC3 entry = 2 pt

[Hayden.]

Hail pedro,
You can have foliage, because while we are based in the desert we do have, oasis's, grassland and if you look on the map, we have a river, like the Nile, surrounded by greenness! So as long as it is'nt forest or woods or snow, and near some kind of water, even if its just mentioned, you can have as much as you like.
Secondly, Of course you can have Light cavalry as scouts, just looks at these-

And the don't have to be these types, you can use horses, elephants or pigs! if you really wanted to.
And I can't wait to see your CIC entry!
Hayden.

[Cuahchic]

I have finally completed my CIC! Not sure how much time I will have for LCC, but I will try my best to contribute where possible.

I went for a slightly different approach - more of a nomadic horse tribe. Don't worry though, I won't be building anything too strange!

Hope this is acceptable for part of the Loreesi faction, if not let me know!

(see below for a link to Flickr)

[Mark of Falworth]

I think it's a very cool adaptation! it would make Roawia much more realistic to have some nomadic tribes.

I also like the fact that the current leader is trying to modernize his nomad followers. A very realistic touch IMO.

Yeah, Marks pretty much covered the basics, but I also like the felt and fabric tents, a very nice idea!
They seem a lot like the Mongola to me, and its always good to have a few mongols on your side!
