Velkommen til Tales of Tamar!
Dette er sikkert f

MDer eksisterer allerede en konfiguration af ToT i forvejen. Vil du
ndre den?
Du skulle nu kunne h

Tales of Tamar et internet baseret strategispil som ligner de gamle klassikere som 'Kaiser' eller 'Hanse'.
Kan du lide netv
rksspil? Har du nogensinde t
nkt p
, hvordan det ville v
re at kunne spille et spil med et uendeligt stort antal menneskelige modstandere over nettet ? Strategispil er sjovere hvis der er flere spillere til at spille det! Dette er nu muligt p
grund af internettet...
For at v
re mege pr
cis: Tales of Tamar er et rundebaseret spil-via-email spil. Hvert tr
k du foretager dig bliver sendt til en speciel server. Bare rolig, du skal altid kun klikke med musen og ikke l
re nogle kommandoer:)
Teoretisk kan antallet af spillere v
er uendelig. Alle spillere er placeret i den samme verden og kan handle (eller sl
s) indbyrdes. Du starter som hersker i dit lille kongerige og der er s
op til dig at bygge et rigt og stolt kongerige. Med nogle screenshots vil vi vise dig, hvordan det endelig spil kommer til at se ud...
God forn
jelse!

This is the online-section of Tales of Tamar...
There is one problem: Because there is an unlimited number of human players, who will be on the world of ToT, it is not possible to program a self running demo.
So you can see a screenshot of each are of ToT with an explanation.
You can also chat or play online. The first online game is 'arm-pushing', a joystick-shake-me-dead-and-throw-me-away-game.
These games are only for having fun, they have nothing to do with the real game.
Naturally you need an internet-accound and a configured TCP/IP-stack (miami 3.2). AmiTCP is not supported yet.
We would be grateful if someone send us a rexx-script for this :)
After the Amiga version a PC and a Java version will be published. So you can play with every people, it doesn`t matter then what computer system this person uses.
Perhaps you want to know why you have to wait so long time for Tales of Tamar?!The answer is hidden in this demo, find it :))

SThis is the storeroom.
rom here you can download new versions of Tales of Tamar directly from our servers.
Every available update will be displayed as wine casks. A chosen cask will provide information on
the update, update downloads are already working in the demo but the
automatic installation is not implemented yet into the demo.
GHere you can see one of the towns of Tamar.
As you might already have noticed this town is quite small, more like a village.
The towns in Tamar are very flexible, all towns can be different from
each other. Most of the buildings have got a special meaning, i. e. the marketplace
is a place to trade, to buy and sell goods at. The taverna we have already visited.
At the windmills in the background you can join the corn store, which we will see much more detailed soon.
towns are the bases of Tamar's realms. The players realm profits of the towns the player own,
if the player owns more towns the realm will profit more. towns give your armed forces the chance to relax,
they are the nerv centre of trade and research and provide border areas more safety.
Every town might be improved individually and used for different purposes.
A small town of Tamar. The ruler seems
to attaches great importance to clerical representation in the town. The cathedral exists surprising early and there are also barracks,
a port, a citizen hall, mills and much more.
To mention is, that you can name the towns yourself whenever you found one. The name given by you will appear on every players screen.
Let's move forward and take the next step....
UThis settlement is really worth to be called a town: cathedral and castle are already built,
a roll call court exists as well. In the background, city walls are protecting the town.
This could already be the capital of a realm at Tamar. It is important, that the
ruler owns at least one town with many improvements. The castle gives
additional defense points and affects positively on the populations loyalty.
Loyalty is a very important thing for every player. There are only three things which
can put the player out of the race: Death caused by age, if you have not got any successor,
death if the player gets killed in action or death caused by anarchy in the players realm.
Anarchy emerges from the loss of the people's loyalty to its ruler and ends up with cutting off the rulers head...
The cathedral cares for more assistance of gods. There are
10 different streams of faith, one of them has the player to choose at the beginning of the game.
The decision made in the beginning will affect to the game sometimes. Churches, abbeys
and cathedrals are tributes to these gods.
The roll call courts and barracks, where you can recruit and train your armed forces. Armed forces
are needed to conquer new countries and to secure your realm from outer enemies.
Armed forces are to be recruited, drilled and trained in every town with a barrack improvement.
:Here you can see a town of the 4. stage, also called metropolis. Here pulses the life! Here can live up to 1.000.000 humans and other creatures.
This metropolis has no castle, probably it is a big trading point and has nearly nothing to do with war. You have the possiblity to trade with the human players and grow because of this. A kingdom for example can be the connection of two other kingdoms and so the ruler has the possibility to get rich with smart trading. In this example ruler B buys from ruler A what ruler C needs. Because of the geographical location of a kingdom it is possible that ruler A can`t trade with ruler C directly or he or she even doesn`t know that ruler B bought the things from ruler A.
But it is a long journey before you will have a metropolis.
Towns can be destroyed by catastrophes or war.
Welcome to the trade-register of Tales of Tamar! Here you can buy ware, sell ware or trade with other rulers. You can also look at your gold here.
On the right side you can buy weapons and other things. For the most things there will be an animation.
On the ware market you can have a look at the offers of other rulers and perhaps you accept one :)
The ware of other kingdoms is, not like the ware on the right, not available before the next quarter of the game.
On the bottom you can make your own offers. Other rulers can view your offer in the next round. The ruler who makes the best offer gets the ware. So when you need a ware you have to make a good offer.
On the left you can see a little picture about your gold.
wThis is the report-screen. After every turn a report of the last turn is presented, before you can go on.
There are reports about war in neighbour kingdoms, about succesful tradings, how your population grows (I hope that your population grows :). You can read everything what you should to know here...
You can have a look at statistics of a war and you can watch the war!
This is the diplomacy-sector. On the following screens you can write peace-, trade-, 'Not-Attack'-treaties and you can send private messages to other rulers here.
The dipomacy-sector is used to communicate with other rulers. Public discussions have to be hold in the tavern...
You can write any treaty, but there are already some treaties between which you can choose. All treaties are viewed and evulated by the game-masters. So it is possible to marry the daughter of another ruker when you give to his/her kingdom weat for five years.
!The first section is about peace and other politic treaties. You can have a look at the treaties and you can send messages from here.
You can break treaties. But be careful! Every ruler in your neighbourhood get a message when you break a treaty. And everyone can look at your statistics!
This section is about trade treaties. For example they are usefull, when you don`t have enough weat for your folk to eat. So you can make a treaty with another ruler who has enpugh weat. So he/she will give you 15 units of weat for 3 years for the price of 300 gold pieces. So you would get weat for 12 rounds from him automatically.
You can have a look at your treaties and statistics, too.
And here are the other treaties. Here are all treaties, which you haven`t found on the sides before.
You can write any treaty. This treaty will be send to the game master and he/she says if it is ok or not.
With embassies you can communicate with other rulers. You can write emails as long as you want. So you can send the newest information to another ruler. But with spys other rulers can read this message, too. So it is not a bad idea to train a good security service...
And this is the research sector of Tamar. There are 7 different parts to research. There are alchemy, astronomy, nature, war, technics, medicine and theology.
As bigger the stage of a research as better the seer can help you. There are 7 stages to research of each part
Some things you can`t build before you have not researched something.
When you research war, your army will fight better and so on..
This is the alchemy section.
Alchemy is the chemistry of Tamar.
Here you can search for harder iron or even the 'Drink-of-Life'.
You can look how far your research is done and what the next stage will bring you...
Hey... Here you can research technics.
But, what is technic? With technic we mean all things that you need all the day. For example the things which needs workers, farmerssurgeondentists,...
As higher the stage is as better a cheaper you can product things.
The best techicans are the gnomes. Humans are not as good as the gnomes. So it will be good to invest some money to the technic research.
The theology...
With theology we mean the believing to god of the people. Every player can select a god at the beginning of the game.
There are three different kinds of gods:
Gods of war and of the death.
Gods of the elements.
Gods of the growing.
These are dividet into under-groups. There are:
-Gods of war and death
-Gods of peace
-Gods of fertility
-Gods of fire
-Gods of water
-Gods of earth
-Gods of air
-Gods of farming
-Gods of stockbreeding
-Gods of mining
Each of this under-groups can have another under-group! Each god has its` own name
It is possible that when your population has a strong believing to their god, the god will help you sometimes...
9Welcome to the options-screen of Tales of Tamar...
Here you can edit your personal configuration of ToT.
For example you can choose between CD-Rom and Digibooster-Sound, between AHI and Paula and much more things
Perhaps you can use a Wabetable-Routine in later versions...
But let us go to the next screen...
qThe second page is about the internet-options.
Because ToT is an internet-based game, you have to do some configuration about your internet connection (TCP/IP-stack, POP3-Server,...). There have to be an installed TCP/IP-stack like Miami or AmiTCP.
Perhaps the last option will surpise you. Here you can choose between connection with 'Email' or 'Modem'.
Eh, this option is for those people, who can not connect to the internet because their provider has a problem but they have to do an important moove. So they can select 'Modem' and he will be connected with the ETERNITY-Mailbox. But this is not the cheapest method!
Here you can edit your personal modem settings.
You can fill in here the device and the unit of your modem. Of course their will be a list of modems were you can select your modem and its configuration.
The special-screen...
The rulers has the possiblity to retain specialists. Some of these specialists are clericians, magicians, seer, wise man,...
But all these people want to be paid for every month, but he will also help you :)
They will tell you if you have done some wrong configurations of the empire, they will warn you if your folk is unhappy...
But not every wise man is as wise as the other.
Some will train you so that you can win some gold (or something other) on tournaments
Clericians.are people which hepl you to be in contact with your selected god and they can also look for magical herbs.These herbs can be good for nearly everything. But at first you have to find out for what ;)
Magicians can help you to find magical artefacs. But this can only be found in dungeons. You have to find this dungeons, they can be everywhere on Tamar.The magician can die when he explores the dungeon and so every magical artefact will get lost what he had. There can also be duells between magician where one magician will die...
Seer can look into the future. For example they can say how much corn you will get next year. But it is not always true what your seer tells you!
There are more specialists, but I think this is enough for the demo...
Statistics...
Ok, I think it is clear what you can view here.
Here you can select a theme and can have a look at a lot of statistics...
kThis is the tax-screen
Here you have the possibility to get money from your folk.
There are different taxes:
-judicial tax
-church tax
-tax which everyone have to pay
-help tax
-the 10.
-toll tax
The toll tax for example is the tax, which everyone have to pay who wants to transfer ware out of a town.
You can read more about the different taxes in the manual.
}This is the weat store. Here you can say, for what you want use the weat.
In the back you can see the harvest of your kingdom. At the store you see how much weat you have actually.
When there is too much weat in the store, rats will be lucky :)
So you should sell your weat which you have too much before the rats eat it.
Perhaps the neighbour kingdom have had a bad harvest...
Here you can the silo of the weat store.
You can look here, how much weat your folk needs and how much should be in the store.
Also you can see here weather forecast and the faith of the folk to you.
Wow, this is the screen of your security service...
With saboteurs you can destroy buildings of your opponent or you can 'destroy' a trade between two other kingdoms. But as more you want from a saboteur as more he costs.
With spys you can look which stage the macigian of ruler x has or which taxes he takes from his folk. Or do you want to know how big his/her army his..?
The security service helps you to find a spy in your kingdom, who a king of another kindoms has sent to you.
Perhaps you made a peace treaty with a king in your neighbourhood. But now your security service find out, that there are some spys and saboteurs from this king...
You see, you can do bad things here.. :)
MHere we go! This is the barrack screen.
Hery you can do everything which has something in common with armys. Train, recruit a army. Give them better weapons. When have a good army, the other kings will respect you. Especially then, when you have some special wepaons.
The dwarfs are known as good producers of weapons and armours.
here you can organise your infantery.
Hery you can see how much recruits you have.
On the bottom the infantery is liestened seperately. All informations will be displayed on the right side.
Here you can select, how long a rmy should be trained. The better you train an army the better this army will fight.
The middle part shows you get informations about the state of an army.
You can only train an army in a twon with a barrack.
Here you can organise your bought weapons.
On the left side you can see all weapons you could have. In the middle of the screen you get some information about them.On the right side you see a list of all armys, which can use this weapons.
For example a hunter doesn`t need a lance.
QSo, last but not least...
This is the residence-screen, the main-screen of Tales of Tamar.From here you can go to every screen you want. On the bottom on the left is a buttom which will connect you to the internet and announces you to Tales of Tamar. After that you will be placed by one of the ToT game leader on the worl of Tamar.Then you are a pert of history of Tamar and you can chat with other players and of course you can play the game :))
As you know now Tales of Tamar is a turn based game. A turn takes two days.You don`t have to be online all the time.It takes only about to 5 minutes to dwonload and send the needed files. Ok, when you chat it takes more time than 5 minutes ;)
There will be a trader version and a PD version. The PD version could be downloaded from the Aminet. Because of the big datas there would be no animations, no intro and no CD-Rom tracks.
We hope you got enough informations about ToT.
When ToT will be released, there will be a book about it. Look at www.tamar.net for more informations./n/nLet us create a new world and be a part of tis history...
Have fun...

%Congratulations...
You found the Special-Text of this demo. I will now explain, why you you have to wait so long for Tales of Tamar.
At first I have to say that ToT really is a big project. The final game will be released on min. 2 CDs. The explanation of the ToT-API is 400 pages long. And then there is the PC and Java version...
I read today that Paul Burkey wrote 14.000 lines new code for Foundation. At the moment ToT has 62.500!!! The server of ToT has 30.000 lines!!!
About the demo:
I began with ToT for 2 years and I`m not very happy that I can`t show you more than this things in this demo. In these two years the team of ToT changed completely around me. Some people asked me if it is good to go on with ToT. Later this people will say to me 'Hey, nice program!' and then they will ask me for a job.
I think that this demo is the right step into the future and we will release now more often some updates. We will release ToT for the Amiga!
I hope that we do a good job so that you will say "Wow, what a game!"
with great regards

;Manual for the offline-game: Runestone
Runestome is a think game for one person. You have to find out a combination of 5 stones.
The area of the game is dividete into four parts. The host of the tavern puts his stones swaped on the top. You put your stones on the middle of the screen. Select your stones on the bottom. With the cursor you can move the white quadrat.
When you put a row of stones, the host of the tavern will tell you which stones are right. There are two possibilities:
Black means, that one stone is on the right place, but the host will not tell you which.
2.White means that one stone is right but it isn`t on the roght place...
After that, you can put the next row. This procedure is repeated six times. When you put all stones on the right place, you win the game!
Have fun!
