Has anyone noticed that for all the cities that have been founded, none of us has more than 15,000 worshippers? Who lives in these cities? Does Nephirthos devide his just under 10,000 between his four cities and two keeps?

Not complaining or anything - I love this game. It's just kinda...odd. :D

In the name of their ancient pride and humiliation, they had made commitments with no possible outcome except bereavement.

I think the incongruity comes from labelling every settlement as a city. It does seem odd, yes.
And where do all these people come from, anyway? Surely settlements existed before we started building our own.

Obviously, even though your people found cities, what you have now are actually more like the seeds of cities - small settlements, or small towns at most, which will rapidly expand into cities as you gain worshipers.

Of course, there are other cities, settlements, and towns (where does the king of the Northern Kingdom live, after all?); these are simply not represented on the map, which shows only the results of deific action. There are not too many other cities and towns, due to the cataclysm that resulted in the ascension of all deities, so they aren't really ubiquitous.

Can a diety just found a new settlement on every turn, or does there ever come a time when you need sufficient people to populate this places?

And can't we include things like the location and borders of the Northern Kingdom on the map? Or can I get a map of it?

Well, mah peeps are living in the forests to the east of Ai-Bhakti - just sent Xar a PM to 'put me on the map', so to speak...

Elaura's realm shall be known as "Eryn Alfirin" (keeping the "elf" theme going!) - it means "Immortal Woods"...

Yes, sorry... my parents came to visit, so I won't be able to update the turn until later in the day. Sorry to everyone for the delay!

OMG! I'm so sorry!! I forgot to post that Xar pm'd me, telling me that all other gods bowed to me, swearing eternal devotion, worship, and obedience. I guess my last move was pretty damned good!!! :D

Cities? Come on Quee - with just under 12,000 worshippers, each of your six "cities" has roughly 500 citizens. I think that qualifies them for village status.

Well is says that I have 6 'cities' and keep 2 Keeps shared between 11000 followers. It might not be just my followers living there... could be other people as well.
