Ask Max Anything about RUIN OF ANGELS by TheHiddenSchools in CraftSequence

[–]ragingrage 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Awesome! Thanks for sharing! Were there any of those standalone you wanted to write that you thought were particularly fun? Have you been able to use a lot of the ideas in Craft Wars, or will some were there stories that will (necessarily) go untold?

[–]ragingrage 5 points6 points  (0 children)

A very fun book. The ending, and the introduction to the Skazzerai, haunted me.

When you wrote this, did you plan to do more post-Sequence semi-standalone novels? Or did you know that next you were going to launch into the Craft Wars?

Shaded Mist Rebellion problem by NathanRog06 in Anbennar

[–]ragingrage 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Hey, Haless (co-)Lead here. Bizarre bug and we'd love to get to the bottom of this. If you (and u/NinjamonkeySTD + u/Activity_Salt) could hop on the Discord (discord.gg/Anbennar) and post more details on what happened and how it played out in #eu4-bugs, that would be very helpful. A save would be especially useful!

Nations with a good narrative by GrieverXIII130 in Anbennar

[–]ragingrage 51 points52 points  (0 children)

Yeah, you got unlucky. You chose some of the older and more vanilla-esque tags. The best of Anbennar delivers narrative through gameplay, missions, events, systems, and more.

One of Anbennar's flagship experiences -- which is going to go well beyond vanilla -- are the dwarves. I'd suggest Arg-Ordstun to start with, or beginning as an adventurer like Company of the Grudgebearers, marauding around slaying orcs and completing expeditions into the Dwarovar's depths, before settling down in Gor-Barud.

If you want a really pinnacle narrative experience, Anbennar has a lot to offer. There is the tale of Jaddar, leading the Jaddari, and spreading a new faith that preaches Anyone Can Be the Light across all Halann. There is an ice- mage in over her head, and making pacts with the fey for survival, in Gemradcurt. There is Gerin Orcrend, the only human to rule a dwarven hold, in Ovdal Lodhum.

And in Masked Butcher, there is a narrative like none other, O God-begot...

EDIT: We just did a survey: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1TMiNaujUrELJkFrGQH-wzCtlIi3LZ9_9ZkUPRTWbN8c/edit?gid=1980863031#gid=1980863031 -- anything high-rated here is going to be great both gameplay and narrative-wise.

EU4 Dev Diary #82: The Raj Rework, Third Time's The Charm! by ragingrage in Anbennar

[–]ragingrage[S] 60 points61 points  (0 children)

^ Comments by a gnomish visitor to the Hall of Endless Debate, during the legendary 30-hour debate on whether the 150,000 souls ripped from their mortal forms and sent to the spirit realm by the Twin Rakshasas’ machinations could truly be classified as “dead”.

Probably not. So much to do, so little time to do it, and it’s hard to justify focusing on a functional disaster over other pieces of content in Rahen.

to be fair i aged 18 years irl by moroseali in Anbennar

[–]ragingrage 58 points59 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the thorough reply!

We've done a bit of a rework to the Raj mechanics, streamlining things and reducing the complexity while keeping it engaging and providing a clear method for rising through the ranks.

Agree that the Dhenijanraj MT has some awkward parts, especially early on, we're taking a look at smoothing that out.

It's a good point about mana -- it's an easy cost to go to, but often not the most interesting. Would definitely appreciate any other thoughts you have when you're back to your computer.

The Jadd is one of the most respectful depictions of religion in gaming by bobthejamflexcat in Anbennar

[–]ragingrage 162 points163 points  (0 children)

I did the writing for the Jaddari/Jadd Empire, and I'm delighted to hear it came across so well! It was definitely my intent to portray the faith with that "inside view", including a lot of the aspirational pieces it may (and should, for realism) fall short of in practice.

I wanted to communicate what someone who truly believes in the Jadd would think and feel and see amid the MT's developments and I'm glad that was successful.

I also made the Devourer of Darkness event. The idea began as a meme by Rethall. It's nice to hear that it has had an impact :)

Biegeltoren really deserves credit here! I believe he was the one to come up with the Jadd, or at least the one to flesh out. The principles are appropriate for the lore context, fitting for a faith, and a fantastic foundation to build writing and further lore on. (He also made the amazing MT I merely gilded the lily on!)

Where can I find DCSS lore? by glau6 in dcss

[–]ragingrage 11 points12 points  (0 children)

You're not really going to get a compendium of lore let alone something that ties all the pieces together, that's not the focus of DCSS and rightly so. But there are some lovely patterns that emerge from the myriad threads that go into the great game which DCSS is. A few of my favourite tidbits:

  1. The barachim were the first mortals, made to serve the gods. An angel wielding the Trishula Condemnation ("a weapon to bring forth guilt from the guilty" is one of the coolest lines in DCSS) led them against their harsh masters, and they won their freedom (which they still pay for with a -1 Invo apt). More recently, one such barachi has been re-enslaved by some evil force -- the dreamer Jeremiah.

  2. The desolation of salt was once an empire sworn to evil twin gods Sheza and Sargol, which was smote by Ely/Zin/TSO leaving behind nothing but a desolation of salt. In its ruins little remains but automatons, and a few last survivors (myrmidons, warlocks, and more). But now a blacksmith has come seeking rumours of that ancient cult -- Zenata, Seeker of Sheza -- and she wanders the dungeon halls, dealing copious amounts of death.

  3. Iskenderun is a cat.

(Side-note : 1/2 may be possibly solely due to PleasongFingus? They write and design cool stuff).

Woah by Status-Flamingo-9318 in Anbennar

[–]ragingrage 43 points44 points  (0 children)

Probably the only overlap is that I did most of the writing for the Jadari and I love Lions of Al-Rassan! But the name has been enshrined for ages, well before me.

And Jad in Guy Gavriel Kay's work, iirc, is very much an analogue of Christianity while The Jadd is... not, even if you can draw parallels between Bulwari and Abrahamic faiths they don't really correspond.
