3. Name Position
   You now see a form for information on your position as a whole. Enter something like "George's family" for your postion, or "George and friends". You can also give a description of a coat of arms your characters and armies will carry. Also, if you want to start in a special place on the map you can mention that here.
   Press the button "Apply Changes" when done. If you do not press that button immediately after entering any text, that text will be lost.
   
   
   Note that if you want to play using the graphical player utility (GPU) you must select the proper file format under "Data Transfer"!

4. Create Main Character
   Next, you will need to determine your main character. Follow the "Characters" link to the left:
   
   

   ---

   On this screen you will always see a list of all your characters. Notice that you only have one character so far, and that he or she has no name yet.
   Follow the "Edit"-link to change the details of this character:
   
   

   ---

   Now enter your character's first name plus a family name if you like.
   Then press the "Apply Changes"-button and after that follow the "Descriptors"-link:
   
   

   ---

   Here you will see the important parameters of a character. Notice that nothing has been determined yet. Two important parameters to set early are race and character class. Change a parameter by following the "Edit"-link in the same row:
   
   

   ---

   When you are done with all the parameters on this page, go to the other pages behind the "tab"-links to the left. Important pages here are "Attributes" and "Skills":

5. Create Other Components
   When you have enough characters you can create other game components for your position such as a building or an army (=group). Make sure you don't exceed you setup point allowance though (which is usually around 100):

6. Check & Submit
   When finished and ready to play you must go to the "Check & Submit"-page. Here you will see if your position is error-free and can be submitted. If there are no errors then you can press the "Submit Position"-link in the middle and you are ready to play. But be careful, once you have submitted a position you cannot change it anymore!
   
   
   Now all you have to do is wait for your first turn to arrive via e-mail.
