Sorry for taking so long to make my first post, but I managed to throw something together for y'all.

Your cuirasses seem similar to my nations shields in terms of their purpose

Except mine are worn and not held, freeing up the arms for other things like muskets and lances.

fair enough, but armor has little use for a horse based cavalry that specializes in speed, where we use spears or sabers and can wield both in tandem with shields

If the armor were cast iron or big and cumbersome, then it would be very bad for cavalry. This cuirass is to be made of steel, a more lightweight and durable metal than iron, and shaped to better withstand a musket ball using thinner armor which will shed weight for the cavalry. The cuirass does not make them in any way invincible though. Just think of it as a bulletproof vest without pockets. It protects your center of mass but leaves the rest of your body exposed and vulnerable.

I like how you used "Potatoeist."

I was unsure of which spelling to use. Did I make the wrong decision?

Congratulations!! You're not a heretic IRL!!!  I always knew you'd come around, Aragonn!!

We use layers of metal, bone, and horn. keeping it fairly light and still catching bullets.

Potato -> Potatoist

Potatoe -> Potatoeist

I think.

Potato -> Potatoeist

Potatoe -> Potatoeist

I don't quite understand but okay...

Potato -> Potatoeist

Potatoe -> Potatoeist

The Potato Pope himself uses this convention in his writings!

It was time for a conclave, and every Potatoist power in the world would want to see their candidate made pope.

And as we all know, His Eminence is infallible.

Only when I sit on the Throne of St.Papus!

And we also know that Spellcheck is not!  Spellcheck has CLEARLY let down the Papacy, and must pay the price!! 

Please tell me this ain't dead.

Guys, I don't know what's going on, but get it together and be not dead for Ara, aight?

I just don't know if there is a specific order we add narrative or not, so that's why I ain't done anything

I was one of the last people to post, so I'm just waiting on others to post again.

My main issue is the time/distance as I don't want to post "Hey we found out the Pope died" as that'd mean a whole month has passed IC (since that's about how long it'd take for news to cross the ocean) and that'd be forcing everyone into my timeframe. I suppose we could establish an IC to OOC relationship to fix that. Like one week OOC equals one month IC.
