  • FIN - Needs a name

    To complement our friends over at the AGG, I think we need some more refined policies on how to develop Ragnars Vikings. One place to start would be the FIN trait though I am at a loss to think what this might be an acronym for.

    Of course, there’s many ways to make money in cIV, and I suspect in this game, bulding cottages is going to be way down on our list of priorities – we have the sea!!!

    As an alternative to something following the FIN trait, we might also consider Ragnar’s other “attribute” – that of a sea-farer.

    F – Forum, Federation ????
    I – Industrious, Imperial, …..?
    N – Navigators, Norse, ????

    All suggestions welcome.

    As are those who think we should build a lighthouse

    I don't know why he saved my life. Maybe in those last moments he loved life more than he ever had before. Not just his life - anybody's life, my life. All he'd wanted were the same answers the rest of us want. Where did I come from? Where am I going? How long have I got? All I could do was sit there and watch him die.

        That would actually be FINZ, but its pretty close.
        Yes, negotiations could take some time.

                Some good suggestions here and others. I guess some of these are going to be a little compromised by our warmer-than-anticipated starting location.

                “Free” – short and to the point
                “Independent” – I think this is the best so far but doesn’t quite sound right. At least, with four-syllables, it will confuse the crowd from the Guild
                “Navigators” – This provides a good link to the sea and doesn’t have the downside of navy which plays more to the military aspects. Another 4-syllable word though.

                I guess the problem is that trade, unlike warfare is only rarely a key element of the game.
