Proposal: New Horizons

Reached quorum 6 votes to 0. Enacted by Kevan.

Adminned at 04 Jun 2025 09:24:02 UTC

Add a new dynastic rule, called The Cities and the Sea, adding Wikimedia formatting markup where necessary to preserve the bold text in the bulleted list:

The map to the right is the map of the Inland Sea. The Capital may update it at any time such that it reflects the location of each City. [[File:Container Draft map.png|thumb]]

Each City has the following publicly tracked information, with the Capital also having any information that is presented in bold:
* A location, which is publicly tracked through the [https://wiki.blognomic.com/index.php?title=File:Container_Draft_map.png Container Draft Map] and which defaults to blank.
* A number of Boats. By default, each City has one Boat.
* A Warehouse, which holds up to ten Resources and defaults to empty.

Whenever a City joins the dynasty for the first time, they may Initiate. When a City Initiates, they should privately indicate to the Capital where on the map their Location is, and should update the destination of their starting Boat to be the name of a City other than themselves, of their choice.

Add a new dynastic rule, called Boats, with the following text:

Each Boat has the following publicly tracked information:
* A type, which can be a Cog and is a Cog by default.
* A Location, which can be the name of a City (including the Capital) or In Transit (x,y), where x is the name of the City of origin and y is the City of destination; by default it is In Transit, where the City of Origin is itself and the City of Destination should be chosen during Initiation.
* A Manifest, which holds up to three Resources and defaults to empty.

Add a link to the Inland Sea map to the sidebar of the Blog.

For those of us Cities that were part of the dynasty when it started, how do we Initiate? The “when a City joins the dynasty for the first time” doesn’t seem to apply, so at what other point can a City Initiate?

Oh, I meant to put something in about that! Sorry. Please do post a fix

That said, because I didn’t time-bound it, arguably it can be done any time.

imperial A bit concerned about how locations work. Right now, water is just a suggestion it would appear. And I feel like there could be shenanigans around people picking locations super close to each other.
