The Confrontations web site is no longer being updated. I have started working on my next project, which is a Final Fantasy/Odyssey type game programmed by myself. The URL of this game is at: http://www.wheres.com/rpg/exile. Please feel free to visit send me your opinions on the game. If you wish to run any of the old Confrontations database files as a server for The Odyssey, feel free to ask. Have fun!!!


Welcome to the Confrontations Web Page. Confrontations is a game built on the game engine provided by Justin Schumacher aka Bugaboo. What differs between these two games is everything. Confrontations contains new graphics mostly created by Will aka WDK not to mention a completely different game basis. Many of these new graphics are for the Confrontations Game Server only. It is a copyright violation to use these graphics without the express permission of the author. If any of the graphics found in this game tread on another's copyright, please inform us and we will promptly remove it. But please do not copy another's hard work, as this work takes hours of thinking and refining. Many tiles are made by Will, but some are by Greg Dorando aka Archbane, Kiljaedon, King Lorick, and others. For more information, please contact Will. This site is part of the SHARE.Com. There have been 5 different versions of Confrontations, all vastly different, but we have finally settled on one final version. This is: Confrontations: Kingdoms. The point of the game is to become a king and to rule one's subjects wisely. As for the storyline, you need not look further than below.

CARDONIA

Long ago in the dark misty forests of the Hillian woods, a young lumberjack named Karthorias the first was working. His income was steady, and life was going on pretty well for this lumberjack. In fact, the forest was big enough for ten workers to life off of. Yet, one day his mother fell gravely ill. Medicine was too expensive at the time and over time her condition worsened. But one day the luck changed on him. As he hacked away at a small youthful tree, he noticed the yellow sap had turned orange, then green and soon after a small sphere rolled out of the tree. He picked  up the orb and it began shining with great life in the most extraordinary colors. The legend had come true. The first of the six orbs had been uncovered. This was his destiny, to become the founder of the largest forest kingdom in existence, Cardonia.

ASHINGTON

In the mid lands of Egypt, a poor worker moved out to sea in search for oil, yet he found nothing. Having been named Alexander at birth, he struggled to live up to the man that was Alexander the great. Reaching the age of 35, he was become very frustrated and had adopted a sense of failure. But one day, as the great seas rolled and turned, great storms began filling the sky. All the boats at sea were swept ashore or capsized. Thousands died, hundreds were missing, and it seemed all hell had broken loose. But something strange had happened to Alexander. He took his ship back out into the storm, with an invincible fury many friends would dare not believe he had in him. He had found his salvation. Leaping into the powerful sea, he dove deeper and deeper onto he was nearly out of breath. It was then that his hands took hold of a small, round, object. He called it, Ashington. The King of the Seas has arrived.

THIEVES

There lived a people of darkness in the shadows. With their hooded masks, sharp tongues, and menacing scars, they scared off all but the bravest of travelers. Having no home and no leader, they did as they pleased, only stopping to acknowledge the existence of one another every once in a while. One day, while hunting down a party of rich merchants, one of these men tripped over a rock. Cursing at the rock, the man drew his dagger and slashed at it. Having cracked the rock’s exterior, it began glowing, and in moments, engulfed the man in a bright yellow flame. Grasping the orb, the man laughed. His life had been chosen for him. The King of Thieves would conquer the darkness.

MODUB

The indigenous people of the land, the Modub slowly watched their lands undergo exotic changes. Where there once was snow, the new arrivals created plains and forestland. Their native lands being threatened, no one dared to uphold the Modub tradition of erasing the new settlers from existence. Yet one day, they could stand no more, and a man was chosen among them to lead them to victory. His neck was  graced with a bright blue orb, and he became forever known as the Icebreaker, the man destined to restore the lands to what it once was.

LYDIA

Just due west of the Modubians, the Lydian Council pondered on their deathbeds. Having lost true magic long ago, they now relied on relics scattered throughout the land. They had built the town east of Lybia, whatever that town is now called, but their lifelines had run short and they now faced disaster. Having little power left, they conjured an orb from the depths of the land and placed it in one individual they held most faith in. This individual, this hero, would bring glory and power back to the Lydians.

TATES

Once there was a brilliant archaeologist in search of the wonders of the world. He had already revealed ancient artifacts dating back in time for centuries. His hunger, however, was ultimate. His desire to discover and to learn led him into one disappointing dig after another. At the tender age of 47, he had a heavy drag to his legs, a drag attributed completely to his gloomy state. Not only had he believed he failed, he believed he was a total loser. On witnessing this man's desperate needs, his assistant ushered him into the tent of a fortuneteller. This was no ordinary fortuneteller, this teller had kept a secret for years. She had boldly hidden an ancient artifact from the world, an orb. On entering her little tent, the archaeologist felt at peace with his inner self, and died under the strangest of conditions, with a slight smile on his face. It was that same day that the woman and the orb dissapeared. That was the same day the kingdom of Tates came alive with life.
