[QUOTE=Killerjc;28288354]I don't think that the Reds would pick an ominous sounding anthem, it should be more suited to a militaristic nation, therefore it should sound like a military march. Again, probably due to my love of Prussia, here is an example.

Preußens Gloria has already been claimed by one Facepunch "project" this month, the latest Wurm Online invasion has had everyone Marching to it.
it was an example you simpleton
I see the Blue Nation as one that would remain hidden, and for that reason, I think their place is not on the snowy tundra, but beneath it. I see vast cavern systems leading to one of the largest mountains in the area, where a massive cylindrical room has been dug out, the highest castes living in its top, while several massive gates in its bottom lead to throughout the realm. The cavern system would be a living thing, entrances appearing and disappearing, moving from one entrance to a main cavern to another, the grand scheme of things only known to the people. Of course that's incredibly ambitious, and would take far more work and planning then just building on the ground.
[QUOTE=Canuhearme?;28286595]IMO, I imagine the Red Anthem sounding similar to this:

That would seem too similar to the red nation.
Maybe blue should standing on stilts, high above the rest of the land?
Will it all be in one texture pack ( The flags ) so that you will just keep placing paintings until you have the one you want?
If anything red's national anthem should be the heaviest (lots of trumpets, drums, chanting), they seem like the most hardass state. Blue should be similiar (they are fascists), but they're associated with the cold so the overall tone would be softer. Green's national anthem would probably be the "lightest" of the three.
Is anyone drafting anything along the lines of weapons?
Because honestly, I think some sort of a modification of the "Guns Mod" with muskets would be just dandy for this whole gamemode. I mean, we already have militaristic states, fascists, and Communists, weaponry of the late 19th century/early 20th century would fit perfectly.

no.
I am so confused and feeling left out. I wanted to join the red caption, but I don't know how to join, and I don't know who has joined. I don't know what I should do, where the texture pack is, where the map is, or even where the server is.
:saddowns:
its not even done yet bro
I assume that we're going to use custom skins depending on our faction/ job? If so I have dibs on the big blue-metallic icey blue guy that kills everyone to death.
Are people allowed to be factionless? Like live in the desert areas as loners?

Have fun with sand,sand and only sand.

No.
If we can't be Bedouin's can we build outposts in the Desert?
I don't see why not.
Right, I just want to know for certain or at least as certain as people are that the moment what the architecture of each of the nations is going to be, if anybody can correct me that would be wonderful as I wish to start helping to design some building to be used for each nation.
I get that Red are all cobble and smoothstone, but are they underground or above ground for the most part. Also are torches used in all building but in the smaller ones much more rarely or do all but the most opulent building use Netherack.
Blue I don't have a clue, if anybody could give me a good idea about blue architecture that would be most welcome
And Green look like they are the people who build building out a wood on the whole and that one does not leave much room for underground building and such.

You are correct on red, netherack will be really common so we'll see some netherrack as a light source and probably lava too. Their buildings are usually squat, square and claustrophobic.
Blue I'm not entirely settled on yet, I've gone for a circular design with logs, planks and snow and glass, however I'm not sure if it'll change. They have high ceilings usually, but that's not a requirement, they're also usually inset into the ground slightly.
Green housing can be wood and stone, but usually most structures are smoothstone and bricks. Aboveground structures most of the time (with some exceptions )
I figured blue would be on stilts, guess not though.
[QUOTE=Brain Tumor;28286820]For the Red Nation, I picture a lot of drums and low woodwind/stringed instruments.
Something like this:

For the Green, I picture a lot of pan flutes with violin style stringed instruments.
Something like this:

For the Blue, I picture some incorporation of the red themed drum/woodwind/string for the communism, and some mallet bells and harp for the winter theme.

This man knows what he's talking about. I fully agree with this.
Also, I'd be willing to help with skins or textures for pretty much anything if you need them.

Why would they be on stilts?
[QUOTE=Fippe;28295965]Why would they be on stilts?[/QUOTE]
I just always picture snowy houses on stilts, probably due to the research bases in Antarctica.

The research bases are on stilts because ICE MOVES. The movement of ice would twist and break them open in few years.
Houses are often built on solid ground and solid ground doesn't move as fast as ice. Ground retains heat. If anything, the buildings should be embedded in the ground slightly to retain more heat.

Ok fair enough.

I love your thinking.

I picture partially embedded domes with some wood/stone towers out of the top for blue.
Green, I have no idea.
Red, towers with pointy decorative spires (when they protrude from the rock face)
