Enter this general where the fanbases and generals of /vt/ are reimagined as rival nations fighting bitter battles or beginning wholesome friendships for the glory of their oshis.rollerskating editionPreviously: >>108870586Interactive map:https://vtwbg.github.io/Introductory document for new anons:https://rentry.org/vtwbg-qrdVITI ARCHIVE:https://docs.google.com/document/d/1QxRtAENk7g3hJAlBsEWRJ6KVEItchyvymusJ1Q7ulEs/BIOME MAP:https://files.catbox.moe/wz0ad4.pngOTHER PROJECTS:https://rentry.org/vtwbg-projects

CLEAR
any progress to the star thing?
>>109002420Updated Ankimo again before adding him or the Holo Triangle to the rentry. Slimmed him down and added a second star to each arm to reflect them being longer than his legs. The one larger-than-average star is supposed to represent his bowtie. I wanted his head to be only one star but it's just too big and I already emphasized the bowtie, so two stars for the head was necessary. I'm having trouble thinking of what to put in for the "notes" for either, but I suppose I can simply leave those as n/a and upload them as-is.No progress on Reinhardt or Lanius. Wanted to wait until feedback on whether my ideas for them (Heroes map sprite for the former, pic from the initial WARpost for the latter) were good reference choices. I am open to alternatives if anyone here would prefer something else for either. I've also been thinking of approaching the Suisei thread for permission to incorporate a hypothetical axe constellation (as well as lore about a well-known comet passing through it with some regularity, an act that is seen as a sign to wage bloody war) but part of me wants to wait until the stuff representing /here/ is accounted for.

>>109016473good
Good news. Baker-chan is getting a new airship. But she needs a small crew to fly it since it's bigger than her old one.
>>109010254The "Notes" bit refers to one of the sections of the template that all constellations follow when they're in the rentry. Using picrel as an example,####The Holo Triangle<picrel>>LocationAbsolute north>Identified ByHolo Imperials>NotesAlso known as "Northern Triangle" and "Blue Dorito". The center of the main triangle is situated directly above Viti's north pole, though there is some debate over whether the "center" in question is the incenter, circumcenter, centroid, or orthocenter.>>109011832Constantly been unsure whether it would be more appropriate to have a constellation of a joshu or a jar of mayo. Your thoughts?>>109018052Will the usual landing spaces be able to accommodate the new ship? Also, what are the salary and other perks that come with being a crewmate? Have people already applied or is Baker-chan waiting until the ship comes in?
>>109018729The ship is amphibious. If it cannot land on land it can land in water. Also I'm sure most commercial ships are bigger than Baker-chan's new ship.

I'm battling fevers and a cold today. Zombie wife will be in charge of the tavern. It's roast chicken with gravy today.
dnd game happening soon. lets see if i remember to do the update tonight
Been thinking about going into detail about airship sizes and classes but I don't know where to start.
>>109024855could start a system of what ship does what by size
>>109025793Maybe it'll work for military class ships. And each country can have their own class systems for ships based on their language.
:p https://voca.ro/132uLDMt257U
I'm thinking about taking classic wooden sailing ships and turning them into airships as a start. I think that should be a starting point since wood is lighter than steel.
>>109014839In /morig/, airships work a bit differently. Instead of being filled with lighter-than-air gas or hot air to float, they are filled with normal air, but the skin is covered in a runic enchantment which cools down the air around the balloon. This makes this air get denser relative to the warmer air inside the balloon, increasing the latter's buoyancy and propelling it upwards. Some large such airships often leave a curtain of vapor behind them as they travel due to this effect.
>>109009512I like your ideas for the two /vtwbg/ constellations. Specifically, the front angle on lanius with the two horns and plumage crown seem like they could be stylized into a nicely recognizable constellation.
War via airship battles.
woosh
>>109034198WAR
>>109041818oi oi
>>109031748what other material would the ships use
>>109043492Aluminium is an example. There's also fiberglass and graphine as space age materials. Though those materials won't stand up well to gunfire.
>>109009512magic is everything. this pic in particular is the one featured on the divegrass thing when we died before coming back so idk use it somehow?
Speaking of divegrass, it's that time of year once again and preparations for the tenth iteration of the vtl are now officially underway! If you would like to see /vtwbg/ participate then make sure you reply to this post to show your support. We are also now taking suggestions for roster changes, so if you have any ideas for new players then let us know!
>>109047339Here's my first attempt at it. Larger stars are the glowing eye and the palm and first finger joints of the left hand, while smaller-than-average stars are the arm in the background and the cape (but only the ones near the foreground hand, in order to contrast those stars).####Reinhardt, the Mage>LocationNorthern tropic>Identified ByRisuners>NotesMagic is everything!If no revision is needed, I can add it straight away. So let me know if there's anything that seems off or in need of changes in the image or description!
>>109032083And here's the Lanius constellation! Not sure who I should put down as having identified it, current thought is to mark it as "unknown". Will likely place it in the northern subtropic. Small stars are the broken horn, the non-mustache parts of the beard, and the narrow vertical part of the helm. Large stars are the intact horn and the mustache. Not as satisfied with this one, maybe make the crest stars bigger or include those forehead peg things? Add another pair of mustache stars to connect them to the "mouth/nose" star?>>109048084Whoops, forgot to update the page before my previous post! Here's to divegrass!
>>109048084yeah lets goooI don't know any new player ideas? Maybe the constellations?
>>109048227this one really captures that constellation thing of not seeing it until you look at the original thing again, kino>>109048535beaut, I like all the features. I think you could maybe disrupt the symmetry a little bit? maybe one or two stars missing from one side and not the other, and a few of them being a bit moved.>>109048084CAMON LETS PLAY SOME FUCKING BALLUhh what if a meteorite? It's been looming above us for a while
>>109053387I think the plume is getting to me. That and the "beard" seem important for framing, but I'm finding it tricky to show them without making them "obvious" (don't want an obvious un-disrupted arc for either). Putting one of the three vertical stars directly near the plume may be a way to help that at least. I was tempted to get rid of the broken horn, but op mentioned "both horns", so I settled for narrowing the plume and lowering the intact horn instead. Open to further suggestions to improve it, like removing the new "mustache" stars or reducing the amount of stars in the plume.>>109050504Speaking as the one who's been working on the constellations, I'd like to say that although I'm flattered by the suggestion (and I can see how it could be easily implemented: just make a pitch-black model, put white dots in the appropriate places, and then add thin lines to connect them), I'd like to make a counter-suggestion of including something from Loreli, like Baker-chan, the tunnel-bore, or the airship stuff. If there's room for more than one new player I won't mind a constellation player joining them, but something from Loreli should have higher priority imo. That's been going on a lot longer than what I've been cooking just these past few weeks.
>>109055249I think that worked nicely! Another part of constellations is that in the actual sky you have smaller stars in the background that aren't part of the constellation so with those I think this would pass convincingly.Hmm, we actually have a very long history with airships, so that could be fun. Could even just be an addition to the lore of vt cuisine model.
Do you have the lumber and metals necessary to build airships in your country?
>>109056933there are plenty of trees in the non-city areas of /awat/ but they usually aren't touched unless they are in designated tree farm areasRealistically they should have the materials necessary though

Doob morning. Softboiled dodo eggs for breakfast.
>>109097034how big are dodo eggs
>>109098952Thrice the size of chicken eggs.
>>109099171like an ostrich egg?
>>109102697No. Dodos are big birds but they aren't as big as ostriches. They also lay clutches of 2-4 eggs at a time.
