Check your character sheets to see if it went through.

I'll give you a link.... oh wait! No I won't!

everything is just #VALUE!

Question 1: Do I have to be in the Entropy Capital to learn Entropy skills? (and mark of )

Question 2: If yes, how do I learn mark of and Fire skills when I can't enter their towns?

Question 3: If I can't then why would I ever want a Steam Machine?

Question 3: If I can't then why would I ever want a Steam Machine?

Fire Pillars and Immolation are common cards, so you can still get Fire quanta by buying these from Death/Entropy towns. Another option is the Darkness skill that allows you to enter hostile towns. (tough luck for Light if they want something from Darkness :P)

Although I'm not certain, capturing that Fire town and making it your own, or letting some other non-hostile team capture it, might be an option, too.

Wait a second... you can capture towns?...
I thought towns got destroyed after sieging!

Well, first you would destroy the walls, second kill all defending players and garrisoned NPCs, third I believe you have the choice to capture and rebuild, or destroy it entirely.

Where are all these rules surrounding towns??!?

[Scaredgirl]

Can one person with a vehicle skill (like Iron Bird or Ship Captain) take others with him, or does every individual using a Fast Transport need the relevant skill?

Everyone needs that skill, although when talking about the boat, it might actually be cool if one person could transport.. say 3 other players. Who knows, we might change that skill.

Is there a list with current Global Quests?

Global Quests are posted globally and are basically a "race" between all elements on who completes the quest first. We currently have zero global quests active so there is no list.

Question 2: If yes, how do I learn mark of and Fire skills when I can't enter their towns?

Question 3: If I can't then why would I ever want a Steam Machine?

This is something I was going to talk about later. I think the best way would be something like this:

MARK -> Any City or Town
TIER 1 -> City or Town of that element OR neighboring element
TIER 2 -> City or Town of that element
TIER 3 -> City of that element

Something like that.

Players will be given an option to either capture it, or destroy it. Latter gives you some extra resources (at a cost of not getting a new Town or City)

Rules will be slowly added as beta goes forward. Siege is something I plan on talking about very soon. But if you want to start it right now, just go next to Town or City and use the Siege action to see what happens

[Jappert]

MARK -> Any City or Town
TIER 1 -> City or Town of that element OR neighboring element
TIER 2 -> City or Town of that element
TIER 3 -> City of that element

Something like that.

Sounds like a very good plan to me. I've got plans on short term however so a final verdict would be most welcome

Just use that as a temporary rule.

Cool by me, I'm just looking for basic things like how many AP it takes to create a town, how many towns you can create, etc.  Seiges will certainly be on the agenda soon, but how about the stuff we've already done being written down somewhere?

Question 3: If I can't then why would I ever want a Steam Machine?

You want it to use with other fire cards, like rage pots and such, which you can order from the cheapest not-fire source(and that one is me right now).
Just take a boat/ride/camel/just walk to enjoy our premium line of off-element cards, obtained with the last in bargaining tecnology!
Please announce yourself in advance so the patrol doesnt think you are hostile(lets avoid any incidents that compromise trading routes).

Well, technically rage pots are rare, so they can't be bought at the UW merchant.
