Spanish RP - FYI

Had an encouraging conversation with Belleza Diaz, former leader of Vanguardia, this evening. Nostalgia for the game appears to have struck hard, and the positive response to the ball by the community and the devs have gotten the little wheels of hope turning. There's a very good chance that she and a few others will be attempting to resurrect some Spanish RP in the next month or so. I'll be doing everything I can to help them with that.

That's great news. You know, one of the things I'm looking forward to from an RP perspective is actually the skirmish system. Of course it's being developed and sold as a tool for the hardcore PvPers. But one of the things I think defines an RP community is that they have to be resourceful in bending tools not designed for RP to RP purposes. Just because we set up a skirmish doesn't meant that we all have to blast the strakes out of one another once we get in there. I'm mulling over some ideas for story events we can perhaps introduce using this system, once I get a look at the default maps that they are using.
