Warsim: The Realm of Aslona News

Well I'm extremely impressed with the number of jokes we got in total, so many creative people (some of them even funny!) In the end the descision was unanimous and the winner was /u/rabidrab. Rab selected 'Blades of Time' as their prize and chose hero origin stories as the theme of the next challenge. Congratulations again RabidRab!



Come up with interesting short origin tales for characters you might find in the world as hirable heroes. Here's a few we have at the moment:

* I worked as a border guard between two warring nations, the things I saw I struggle to relive, I really do
* My past? I was brought to life by a wizard, he didn't tell me anything, my age is unknown to me, am I a real person brought to life or some wizard conjuration, hmm, perhaps I've said too much
* I was a mushroom picker, used to traverse many woodlands searching for mushrooms, of course in this time I had my fair share of trouble, marauders, goblins, thugs and fools, but I survived, picking mushrooms, some were good for healing, some eating, some for, other things
* I was a mine guard, used to make sure none of the miners stole any ore and that no outsiders tried to sneak in, boring job truth be told, the miners were good folk
* I was a sailor, saw a lot of waves in my life, a lot of storms, even pirates once or twice, an eventful life at sea
* I helped a short little goblin carry an enchanted bracelet to a mountain to dispose of it, we stopped a big evil from spreading into the land, you didn't hear about it?
* I do not have too interesting a story to tell I'm afraid
* I spent my youth in a village, boy I thought I was in for a boring life, our village got raided when I was around 13 years old, I tried to fight but I was enslaved instead, spent some years as a slave working in a mine, but with the help of others we revolted, as a free man I took to hunting slavers for a while, taking their ill-gotten gains and freeing their servants, gained a name for myself even



* The winner will be announced sometime in the afternoon (GMT) on 24/04/2020

A new edition to our community challenge is a panel of judges so it's not just my own choice! The new panel consists of TheGamingDictator, a vigarous bug eliminator and awesome moderator for our subreddit and Defender, a veteran player and contributor to Warsim from the Audiogames.net community.

In the most recent competition the panel voted unanimously for AlternateEnding's entries to the Tavern Dialogue competition. AlternateEnding chose 'The Darkness 2' as their prize and selected Hero Titles as the theme for todays competition. Congratulations once again AlternateEnding!



Come up with titles that would follow the name of the various characters that could occupy the world, it says 'Hero' titles but these don't have to be heroic. There are currently 1994 of these titles in the game but if you manage to get some that aren't already there I'll be impressed. (Here's the list of them all over on the Warsim Wiki)

The prize pool is (a choice of one of the following):

* Cook Serve Delicious 2

So Dzejrid won yesterdays competition among 229 total Orc names entered. They choose 'System Shock 2' as the prize and selected Tavern Dialogues as the topic of todays competition, Congrats Dzejrid!



Come up with the best things you'd hear in taverns in game and submit them as comments here!

The prize pool is (a choice of one of the following):

* The Darkness II
* Sid Meiers Pirates!
* Wizardry 6 & 7
* Or a copy of Warsim

So this one is definitely a bit more challenging than orc names, but just try to think of the sort of stuff you could hear in the tavern of this fantasy realm. For reference here are a few dialogues taken from the TavernTalk.txt file, to see more you can find the TavernTalk.txt file in the Warsim data folder.

* I've been far west, that goblin ale is weaker than a new born babe
* How... how did I get this drunk
* One more drink I think!
* *hic* I'm the king! King of the wooorlldd... *hic*
* Everyone knows a kobolds dozen is 7
* Who farted? smells like an axeman's privy in here!
* Saw a naked orc the other day... I shudder at the thought

Excited to see what you guys will come up with, definitely more room for humour and creativity here than in yesterdays comp!

And if the winner replies by the end of the day tomorrow they can also choose the next days topic from a choice of the following three:

* Hero Suffixes (ie John the Great, Naxnar the Lost)
* Quest items (Things that can be found when adventuring such as, Gold Crown, Bronze Skull, Pile of old news scrolls, Diamond Greatsword)
* Human Names (Turning normal names backwards can sometimes reveal some real gold fantasy names)

Hey guys so a little something to pass the time, I'm announcing the Warsim Community Competition.



Initially I will announce a subject of the competition, this will be an area of content for Warsim such as Human Names, Tavern Dialogues, Quest items, Name Suffixes, Troll Names and so on.

The competition will be put out on Warsim's reddit, discord, and steam communities, the best answer(s) each day will be awareded a choice of one of three steam keys.

And if the winner replies within the same day they can also choose the next days topic from a choice of three.

* You can submit as many times as you want, the more ideas the better!
* If you win you can still keep entering any of the future competitions.
* I'll try to add as many of the submissions to the game as possible as long as they fit.
* You can use generators/tools for names, anything you want, as long as it sounds like it could be an orc name I'm good!
