Fantasian Kingdoms

What is Fantasian Kingdoms? It is explained in the Fantasian Kingdoms homepage as follows:

A text-based Massively Multiplayer Online Game ("MMOG") designed around the middle ages. You have to manage your people, defend against enemies, and expand your empire using brute force, or sharp negotiating skills

Some might say that it is just another one of that MMOG text style war games like Galaxies Ablaze, Mage Realm, Starkingdoms, and much more. This is only 25% true (maybe even less then that). Fantasian Kingdom or FK has evolved into a more complex game then the rest we are use too. It is hard to explain it, so the only way to see what I mean is for you to try it. Visit http://www.fantasiankingdoms.com/ and see for yourselves what I mean.

Now that is taken care of, my province name there is the Crystal Province and my ruler name is Lady Chrysellious. I am also the president of the nation of Sanctuary.

The reason a province should join a nation is because a province will never grow strong and move to the top without being a member of a good nation. Here are the benefits of joining a nation:

1. The province gains the nation’s Initiative bonus (This could be extra minerals, offense, defense, etc). (Independent provinces do not have this kind of bonus).

2. The province gains information shared by the other members of that nation. (Independent province do not have any forum were they can get important information they might need).

3. More powerful units. The president of a nation can customize the nation military units to make it more powerful. (Independent provinces are left with pewee standard units).

4. Protection and guidance by that nation.

Province must be wary on what nation they should join. If a province joined a unstable nation, this nation might disband causing the customize units reverting back to the standard units. So you build defense type units with customize 5 defense points but since the nation disbanded, these defense units will return to their ordinary value of 3 points. Ouch!

In round 3, I did not have a nation to join in, which led to my province being assaulted almost everyday. The attack only stop when I joined the nation of rampage and I start profiting from those bonuses mentioned above.

Now in round 4, I created Sanctuary to help those new players a sanctuary where they can be protected while they learn the game. It seems to be working as each member has started to grow and be more active. Sanctuary currently has 9 member province.
They are:


Province Status Location Terrain Land Networth Nation

Crystal Province [6:6] Tundra 1,474 136,734 Sanctuary
Ovaria [6:1] Multiple Terrain 1,002 101,083 Sanctuary
Zeal [9:3] Glacier 901 67,588 Sanctuary
Ravenswood [4:6] Forest 866 66,536 Sanctuary
JTown [6:2] Glacier 837 52,091 Sanctuary
cheeseman [1:0] Mountains 785 51,940 Sanctuary
Alchemist [1:1] Multiple Terrain 703 47,410 Sanctuary
DemonDust [8:1] Jungle 550 26,946 Sanctuary
NEWPORT [2:4] Multiple Terrain 542 26,831 Sanctuary



Today I made some pretty large grab that lift me up ranks real fast.

Jun 13, 2006
6:24 AM Crystal Province [6:6] has Assaulted Flaming Priests [6:2], and has gained 105 Land!
Jun 13, 2006
6:08 AM Crystal Province [6:6] has Assaulted The Jelly Beans [0:6], and has gained 93 Land!



Of the two, only Flaming Priest tried to blow up my buildings. Good thing I have good counter intelligence and most of its attempts were block and the once that succeeded means absolutely nothing to me.

My province Crystal Province is currently the 4th strongest province and the 4th largest province. Hope I would continue to rise up the ranks! Cheer for me okay? Hee hee!

    Yay! But your link is wrong. It's http://www.fantasiankingdoms.com/ - doing "http://fantasiankingdoms.com/game" will both redirect you to the "www." of it, and redirect you back to just "/"

    And good luck. Hope you win! :-)
