Orryville Blipzerg, of Blipzerg Brothers Wildlife Tours, is pleased to invite all comers to his stupendous, fantabulous wildlife tours! Fly in a Gnomish balloon high above Elanthia and see her many wonders from a safe and respectful distance.

Gasp in excitement as blood wolves track their prey! Gaze in wonder at firecats in their natural habitat! Ooh and aah over pods of dolphins! See firsthand the legendary armadillos of the mysterious isle of M'riss! Now anyone can get close -- but not too close -- to many of Elanthia's rare and majestic creatures.

The tours leave from Langenfirth (at the top of the Langenfirth Tree), travel to M'riss, and then return safely to Langenfirth again.

Fare is 50 copper lirums per circle. Fly with the Blipzerg Brothers today!

OOC:

Announcing the release of a Gnomish airship that flies between M'riss and Langenfirth. It picks up passengers here:

[Langenfirth, The Langenfirth Tree]

And here:

[Fala Inisharon, The Stooping Cypress]

Fare is 50 copper lirums per circle, each way. I hope people enjoy this release. Big thanks to GM Raesh for his help in making this thing a reality. Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns.

One way trip was about 15 minutes. The ship docks for a few minutes, though I didn't time exactly how long. Five, maybe?

Wow great stuff here!

>>Just one airship for now, but Orryville has plans to expand his business if it should prove popular. Probably not a ferry-style two-airship system, but maybe a ship from Hara'jaal to another destination, for instance.

How about Ratha to Crossing? Assuming making an airship would be easier than fixing the silly boats.

Awesome, thank you!

>>>There's already Leth to FC to Ratha, which isn't all that bad.

Also, the Skirr isn't THAT bad if you can catch it. I've timed it at 16-18 minutes.

No it doesn't. The FC pier is open to everyone.

airships. Airships. AIRSHIPS!?

Cool.

>>.There's already Leth to FC to Ratha, which isn't all that bad.

>Requires premie, or microtrans access. Good to note, but not helpful for a large portion of the player base.

As Illiena mentioned, anyone can use the Mammoths, the dock sites, transfer areas at all three locations is open to all.

>Also, the Skirr isn't THAT bad if you can catch it.
>>The 2 1/2 hour interval between trips is the big nail in that coffin.

Exactly. Any way you can just reduce the time docked to 5 or 10 minutes?

>You just can't enter FC's main strip and the hunting areas beyond.

Oh well, then what's the point then? If all you can do is just see the dock, what's the point of going there if you're not premium?

Isn't it just simpler to state you need to be Premium to get to FC so you don't waste any non-premium account holders time?


note: I've only been to FC one or two times (?). I don't know the layout, and have never looked at the map of the area. I have no need to.

>>Oh well, then what's the point then? If all you can do is just see the dock, what's the point of going there if you're not premium?

I believe the point in leaving the dock open to everyone was to add another travel option for getting between the islands and the mainland.

>>Isn't it just simpler to state you need to be Premium to get to FC so you don't waste any non-premium account holders time?

Not if travel is their only goal, then you're helping them not waste time.

The only time Flavius has ever been to M'riss- I think- was when shards worked(I miss da shards)- and this just might be the motivation to go there. What a fun idea.

People, you are missing the big picture!

Player made/owned airships. Boats are so 2012

>>this just might be the motivation to go there. What a fun idea.

This.

Thanks for the great release.

Just took my first flight and I must say - very cool.

Great release, thanks for putting this together.

P.S. - Any chance of a sign or something to indicate the departure spots? Thanks!
