New Warlord Meeting! HURRAY!

[CJ]

Woooooooooooooo! Shark and I were thinking about starting up another Warlord meeting thread. We haven't had one of those in a long time. Let's go for it!

Unfortunately, we never finished the war. This has yet to be determined, but I think would be safe to assume that no one won, leaving the countries in varying states of ruin. What happened to each individual country is up to the player who ran them.

This meeting would introduce the new Fleet Admiral and have him or her assign each country to a Shichibukai. For example, Uzo would be given Regala to run. You can decide whether or not your country will be given to a Warlord or even to include mention of the country at all. For the sake of fairness, I'll have the WG take over Ravunya since Sprite isn't here to make any input.

Other than that, the meeting should be fun and full of surprises. I'm not sure when we'll start it but I hope you guys can participate.

I think run isn't really the correct term, rather than oversee. It's not like the countries are being brought to heel and the warlords are being instated as the new rulers. My idea was more, they're there to assist in the reconstruction, by helping out however they can/want, but more importantly to act as a deterrent against pirates and criminals from attacking the war-stricken countries.

Also my vote goes to making Ravunya fall under Coryphaues control. Obviously they'd turn on their ally without a proper foe to fight, right?

Thanks for the clarification. That's what I was trying to get at, but I obviously didn't describe it right.

I would gladly vote for that but I don't think it would be fair to Sprite in case he ever was to rise from the ashes. I was thinking we could just have it assigned to the WG and leave it at that.

If Sprite ever rises from the ashes, what difference does it make whose in control of his country? If he came back and wanted Ravunya back, he could just have it again, and in story, claim independence from the WG or Coryphaues or whoever else.

My only reason for opting for this is simply because I feel it would give the war more of an impact, which is somewhat necessary since it didn't occur on-screen. I'm fine with the war having not really happened, and more or less resolving it after the fact with this meeting, but I think at least there should be some very real results on the outcome rather than just "The countries involved are a little beat up". Otherwise, really only Victoria suffered through the war, by dint of its destruction (albeit, not directly because of the war).

That's just my two cents, though unrelated to the actual meeting. I think for that, we're more or less on the same page.
