    You may note the redundancy of elf mystic and halfling rogue through each division. If I wasn't playing into my own kingdoms doctrine then orc warrior would be included in this redundancy. My reason is I believe you should have an answer to unbreakables from every dimension. These are the characters that can reach up to the bullies and hurt them. Each hits hard in hostile. Additionally these archetypical builds are player favorites.

    And drop a personality/race combo you love to play. I'm trying to incorporate player choice that I can balance with non-player combinations. The inclusion of faery tactician for example: my belief in pain free intel to a fault. However, I noted a top kingdom conversation where they mentioned the misuse of a faery tactician. So this is in fact a build considered viable in the creamy crust of Utopia. LOL( Low Ominous Laugh )

    Thank you merunuh. (anyone is welcome to submit a persona/race and province name to be featured in the kingdom)

    @ tras19: the monarch 25 slot is reserved for any build not listed. I simply used faery mystic for it's popularity. You're the virtual steward. Age 60 will no doubt offer new alternatives.

    The practical essence of the Vitual Kingdom was founded on the idea of a 3 kingdom merger of 8 provinces. This is a reflection of my experience in the greater Utopian lower tier. 3 kingdoms brings their core of active, experienced(or good) team players and function in their own division. Obviously the kingdom, as a whole, is meant to synergize as it matures.

    Of note to anyone reading this manifesto of sorts: I see Templars reforming in recruitment and that they are 8 players at this time.

    This is where I was fond of Palems view on bottom feeders. This kingdom is based in the same philosophy as Ardent Consortium in that we initiate and react as a team. If the learn wave comes we react as a unit to replenish and preserve the features that brought player persona and race together. If we agree to live and die by it as a fun way to play the game the kingdom will never be want for excitement.
    This wouldn't mean play dumb, it means we approach the puzzle of advantage and disadvantage with a desire to learn and execute. Rest assured wars would be lost, but not as many as some might think. The kingdom is here for your science, just as your science is here to make the kingdom better. Your buff is your team ;-) that's why we have even the neglected represented here.

    Flexion Beam Design: I'm sort of into guitars and noticed this less known mechanical vibrato, Skyway. - The sense one should get from the Virtual Kingdom alignment is one of flexibility and strength in a wide range. We include the archetypical builds to achieve the furthest reach in a given field. As in tempering, the kingdom now is multifaceted with hybrids along it's length.
    ~
    Heck, let's talk blades then. The archetypical builds represent the hardened edge with razor sharp potential. The hybrids represent a softer more flexible core, but one that returns to true even if pushed to it's limits. If you approach the 3 divisions as a sword stroke: archetype is the opener with speed, power and penetration. The other 2 divisions offer that strength behind the edge that supports through heavy obstacles and prevent the blade from shattering.
    The more true the stroke the quicker the kill. Bad technique and we test the core. LOL(Low Ominous Laugh)

    Diplomacy: Wouldn't it be cool if the 3 divisions in this kingdom were from each a growth, honor and war doctrine?
    ~
    It would be nice to inform the known war kingdoms a desire to match blades when they're in the neighborhood. This could be an age to age tradition. Obviously this kingdom is at a disadvantage, but this is about learning to fight. It's also about staying sharp and building gaming relationships.
    ~
    Get to phone in a growth kingdom if we feel our acreage demands. It's far better to have a friend do the job an enemy would botch. This is reality and doesn't reflect my feelings on crown endeavors. If this kingdom has luck in growth we simply default to the sausage making notice program of top play.
    ~
    If by some accident the kingdom sits atop a mound of honor then decisions can be made about this effort as well. We can meet honor kingdoms in war to settle the placement. Or simply inform them we aren't doing it on purpose.
    - All 3 can be integrated as a symptom of sharing a kingdom. -
    The better the schedule and knowledge of landscape the less likely GB will occur with impunity. It happens, but part of diplomacy is to minimize the event.

    Oh, I'm tired...but, I'll get in here and try to sew up the age 59 rundown.

    Guess what I'm tired of? Besides being awake....People who will not request aid readily available to get them on their feet. You may know I'm no math wiz, but I've asked guys to build towers to trade runes if they're worried about trade balance. All I see is defeatist bravado. It's like anti-teamwork!

    The hybrids make divisions difficult for my strategic mind(that high pitched rattle you hear whenever I speak)to set up in array. Coffee and cigars will get me in the mood. Now I have to plan that to.....sigh

    Edit: ah heck, I'll go with the divisions as array set on page 5. Let the strategists figure out how to kick buttons with the setups. I'm skepticlon after really looking at faery sage, but it does have some fantastic payoff. Guess we can arrange the nw to be where retaliation would hurt. Next to the orc warrior would be my initial instinct.

    Elf cleric for 25th position is looking good in context of the kingdom makeup. While dwarf is a great stand alone cleric, the economic strength in kingdom makes the elf cleric a great bolster in 2 phases of war and a contributor in hostile.

    Elf war hero is also a consideration for performance under the weight of dragon effect.
