1. I can't register on the forum, why?

There are two type of forum in ME, the 'OFF' and the 'Role Play' one.

'OFF' Forum account creation is automatic, and it is done at the time of character creation. You should have received an email with the forum username and password. If you didn't receive any such email, please try to recover the password using the Resend Password function specifying the email address used in game registration:

'Role Play' Forum account creation is optional and must be triggered by the player by clicking on the menu voice Rp Forum.


2. There is no King in my kingdom, how do I become one?

"That's a good question, it's important that the kingdoms become active as soon as possible. To become a king you will need to have a certain age and some coins (See En_US_royalpalace for details.) If you can gather that kind of money, and there is a vacant position, go for it!"

3. I have a bunch of money to start with. What should I do with it?

"You begin the first day with just under 300 silver. It is a good idea to get a few basics in place. We suggest that you buy a field to grow crops and a hoe and/or pickaxe for farming and mining. If your city has a forest instead of mines, a hatchet. This will give you the basic tools you will need to scratch out a living."

4. I bought a field, and a seed, how do I plant it?

"Well, like in real life, you're going to need some tools - A hoe is required to sow your field. To use the hoe, point over it and choose the Wear feature. Seeds must be put in the Terrain storage."

5. Okay, where can I get a hoe?

" You should look at the Marketplace in your city. Your local blacksmith should be able to sell you one, and if not, then you should ask on the International Market thread in the forum. You may even want to consider becoming a blacksmith yourself to take advantage of any shortages and an ever-increasing demand. "

6. There is no bread on the market, my character is going to die!

"Medieval Europe has taken into consideration this possibility, and has put in place a system that allows users to obtain bread and little coin. This can be achieved by working in the prisons or the church. You will receive 1 bread and 5 coins per session. You may want to consider being a baker yourself, and take advantage of the shortage and ever increasing demand."

7. What are the Red, Blue and Green bars for in the game?

"The Red bar represents your character's health. Health can be decreased through starvation and injury in combat. The Blue bar represents your character's energy. Energy is decreased whenever you perform an action. You can increase energy through rest, or by eating some bread. The Green bar represents your character's hunger (on an inverse scale). Hunger decreases through action, and also a little every-day. You can improve hunger by eating. You can use a various ointments and potions to improve these stats."

8. I tried to mine/ Chop wood, but it wouldn't let me, why?

"You will need a pickaxe to mine, and a hatchet to chop wood. You must select the Wear function for the correct tool. Otherwise you will be unable to perform that action. "

9. I want to go away on holiday, but my character will die !

"You can 'Pray and Meditate' by selecting the link at the top submenu in the Region View page. This is similar to other game's "Holiday Mode" features. This will feed your character for you. It costs 2 coins and will last for the amount of time shown on the page. "

10. My animals keep dying, why is this?

"Your animals need to eat, just like your character. They require food, the amount of which is displayed on the Wiki. If you fail to feed them, they will die."

11. How do I milk and slaughter my animals?

"A bucket is required to collect milk. You may milk cows or sheep every third day. A knife is required to slaughter the livestock, which produces meat. You may slaughter your livestock on the 15th day, and must do so by the end of the 20th day."


12. How do I buy a hut, field, workshop or farm ?

"This can all be done by looking at the options available in the Castle menu or trough the Small Village structure. Animals can be bought if the region has them, you will see a structure."

13. How do I make money?

"Producing goods to sell on the market is the main way of making money. Trading from city to city is another good option. Working in the church or prison is also a way to both make new money and gain a loaf of bread."

14. How do I buy new clothes?

"Your city may have a tailor selling clothes in the Marketplace. There will be an exciting new dressing system coming later on, this will put the spotlight on the tailor profession. Contact a tailor to buy some clothes. You may want to consider being a tailor to take advantage of market needs."

15. I donated something by mistake, how do I get it back?

"Unfortunately, the only option you have is to ask the person for it back and explain that you did it by accident. Most of the players are very kind hearted and welcoming, and this is the late dark ages, so I should expect them to respond warmly and with open arms. "

16. What is the "Condition" of my equipment?

"This refers to the physical condition it is in currently, 100% being the best condition and 0% being broken. The attributes of the equipment, clothing or armour, will decrease as the condition falls. The condition will fall through use in functions.

17. I started creating a hoe, but I pressed "cancel" because I wanted to make a hatchet instead, but my items have gone now!?

"Cancelling any production action will cause your materials to be lost. Think very carefully before you do this. "
