Jah 8,310 Share Posted February 23, 2017 Can we shoot through that window in the corner of the outer wall? Healein, Genocide and JamesGoblin 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Badwolfe 244 Share Posted February 23, 2017 Any chance we can see a screenie of the fort gates closed and sealed Pann? JamesGoblin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tinnis 8,367 Share Posted February 23, 2017 My first thought: how many characters do we need to piggy-back build a tower to jump over those palisades? (p.s. any eta on your plans to give duelists the capacity to burrow 'under' structures?) Frykka, Belantis and JamesGoblin 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZYBAK 4,025 Share Posted February 23, 2017 Looking good. I have a feeling these will be fairly common at the start of campaign worlds as guilds pool their resources for the bigger things.

chancellor 1,805 Share Posted February 23, 2017 The campfire in the center is silly. There are 2 chimneys in the front, so why not put fireplaces in them? And the big hood in the center is unsupported. Even if those stones are mortared together, they would tear free of the wood eventually and collapse upon the occupants. Can we shoot through that window in the corner of the outer wall? It looks like any race but centaurs could crawl through it. That wooden parapet could have a wooden walkway behind it, instead of the occasional window. Zolaz, JamesGoblin and baerin 3 I think the K-Mart of MMO's already exists! And it ain't us!

pang 4,174 Share Posted February 23, 2017 The campfire in the center is silly. There are 2 chimneys in the front, so why not put fireplaces in them? And the big hood in the center is unsupported. Even if those stones are mortared together, they would tear free of the wood eventually and collapse upon the occupants. It looks like any race but centaurs could crawl through it. That wooden parapet could have a wooden walkway behind it, instead of the occasional window. The Chimney is in the center hence the fire is in the center. Can see this in the third and fourth pics. Those stone columns in the front don't look like chimneys at all just structural accents. JamesGoblin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chancellor 1,805 Share Posted February 23, 2017 Pang, you're just supporting my point. The lodge is pretty, but structurally unsound. Now get in there and support that collapsing structure! sneaky_squirrel, baerin and JamesGoblin 3 I think the K-Mart of MMO's already exists! And it ain't us!

ren 1,355 Share Posted February 23, 2017 Pang, you're just supporting my point. The lodge is pretty, but structurally unsound. Now get in there and support that collapsing structure! Mortar is strong in compression but not in tension. The steel brace system shown in the concept art would have to extend down to the bottom of the chimney and provide a lintel (shelf) upon which the stone would be laid. piikaa, JamesGoblin and BurgundytheRed 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ren 1,355 Share Posted February 23, 2017 (edited) Also, the draft for the fire pit would be problematic resulting in a smoky interior of the lodge. In our world with realistic gravity and airflow, a metal hood with flared opening over the fire pit would be the way to go. Here is a nice architectural precedent.

pang 4,174 Share Posted February 23, 2017 (edited) ^ Its concept art, first iterations of structures in a video game.... Not architect drafts for a real building. Edited February 23, 2017 by pang JamesGoblin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KrakkenSmacken 4,921 Share Posted February 23, 2017 (edited) Next thing you know we will be talking about sword balance. As long as we can burn the bodies of our fallen enemies in them, who cares what they look like?

Nazdar 1,180 Share Posted February 23, 2017 How will you customize your fort? I have no idea how to answer that question. I was really hoping there would be an infodrop that would help me answer it. The art is nice. JamesGoblin and capntastic 2 Nazdar Proud member of The Hunger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weebles 435 Share Posted February 23, 2017 Since I see no work benches in the photos does that confirm you are not able to place them, and possibly thralls, in this stronghold building?

coolster50 2,954 Share Posted February 23, 2017 Since I see no work benches in the photos does that confirm you are not able to place them, and possibly thralls, in this stronghold building? You should be able to. Its probably empty just to show the space of it. Once they put the textured pictures in the store, we'll probably see some props in the Fort.
