So, to kick it off, I know current historic houses are supposed to sit and wait while they are set as historic, and get the stuff set up that they aren't supposed to be changing, like race.

So far it's looking interesting, though the degree of honour penalties might make things... complicated. Losing honour for killing denizens is already making House of Letters look very niche to me. Would that encompass aetherbashing somehow, too?

I don't think it is supposed to be an honour loss. I think that is just saying you get less honour for bashing than other orientations do.

House La'Saet announces new direction

Ah, maybe. I'll re-read it again and hope it sets in this time.

When it says a 'malus' to honour gains, it simply means there's a % decrease - you still gain honour. IE if you gain 100 honour for killing a denizen, you may only get 80 as a letter member.

'Wanton killing' means PvP when someone is in an enemy they are not enemied to - ie jumping someone on Astral, or the highways, or Avechna's Peak. Of the 'active' means, this is the only one with honour loss - except for Blood Houses, which gain honour from it. (Though I don't think it's much)

Is there a time frame set as to when everything will be up and running?

Buggy news posts are bugged. It'll be fixed soon though.

Yeah, it's a lot to take in at the moment.

In the news post, it said bannerhouses now need 15 members instead of 10, was that a typo? I had thought Lesser/Banner House was 20. Since we (Shevat) have fifteen, but are still listed as 'The Shevat Family', does that mean we just have the ability to pledge to a Lesser or Great House, or is just that not all the changes are done?

Also, the epic quest bonus, can that be retroactive, please?

Are epic quests going to be retroactive?

I doubt that.

Also: I still wish to be able to do something with my little one-man family.

I know, but can't hurt to ask. It might actually get some people out of negative honour.

Better idea: Go hunt for an hour.

Wanna make it two, Xenny?

The cow scares me.

Influencing maybe, seem to get lagged out either way whenever I try.

You caught me. I'm Munsia's alternate personality.

Better idea: Go influence for an hour!

Why do I get this feeling you want numbers?

I don't need numbers, I already have them; an hour of influencing should get your family out of the negatives.

Maybe two if you're really slow.
