SR - Let's get this started right.

[Rollie W. Reid]

Here's my first post to this list, so let's see if we can get things 
stirred up right away.

First, so there is no confusion, this is

First attempt to make trouble.

Let's make a principality.  I am completely behind this idea, and in 
fact broached the idea several years ago, just about the time that 
the regions were created.  My plan then was for a Principality 
centered on Bryn Gwlad and Bjornsborg, and of course Ffynnon Gath. 
 With those three we have enough population for a principality.  As 
we expand outwards, we go to the first group out and ask them, if 
they refuse, then our border is set, because we do not jump around 
them to the next group.  So, if we go north, we start with Tempio and 
Middleford (they are about equal distant from Bryn Gwlad).  If they 
accept, then we go north to Emerald Keep.  That however is where I 
would draw the line.  South of Bjornsborg there is not much until you 
reach Seawinds.  It was always my goal to keep the Principality 
small, and that seems too large to me.  The same applies when we go 
east.  Shadowlands is two hours away, and Raven's Fort is three.  I 
would probably draw the line between them, but they play together, so 
they probably need to be accepted or rejected together.  Therefore, 
my tendency is to reject both.  Remember, the original plan was to 
stay small.  Lastly, west.  There nearest group is Trelac I believe, 
too far away for the tiny Principality I envisioned.

Seems to me that this is just about the same area as the southern end 
of I-35 that has been discussed.  At the time I wanted a principality 
small enough that no one could accuse us of going off to play by 
ourselves.  We would still travel, because there would only be six 
groups in the Principality.  Kingdom status if it ever came would be 
years away.

Let's get talking about it.
