A Look At Carmarthenshire

Last month I received a Landmark to Carmarthenshire. Unfortunately, I can no longer remember who gave it to me. Sorry! Carmarthenshire, from what I gather, is a Medieval/Fantasy/Arthurian roleplay and combat sim. I dropped by a few days ago and took a stroll around the sim.

The landmark that I have dropped me on a dock where I was greeted by a sign that says “No OOC Beyond This Point”. LOL! Around the landing area are some things of interest like a box of FREE Clothes that does not give anything, a big board that lists the sim’s schedule of activities, two teleporters, some chairs and a few other objects.

Also, found in the landing area are two ships and a castle like fort. I am not sure if the two ships are sailable and I did not bothered to try if they were. I have a bad experience about trying out things or objects when visiting a new sim. He he he!

Just north of the Landing Area is the Town Square and it is surrounded with different buildings. I did check a few of the buildings like the Pub and there are some houses for rent as well. The Pub does look very cozy and rooms are available for rent for only 50L$ a day.

Coming out of the Pub, I then walked west of the sim where I found a couple of rental houses. I continued to walked west until I reached the edge of the sim. I was looking for a path to the Marketplace but did not find any so I traced my steps back to the Town Square. The path that lead me to the edge of the sim and then back is not a boring path because along the path are stuff to see.

Back at the Town Square, I then entered the Castle gates. I wanted to go to the fair grounds but the gates lead me to the Castle Ballroom. I looked and looked everywhere but I did not find any path that leads to it. I do not want to use a Teleporter but I had no choice because some areas can only be accessed through it. I found a Teleporter just outside the ballroom and used it.

I first went to the Sword Arena which was way up in the sky. The arena looks amazing with good details and above it is a floating island that is kinda evil looking. I then went to visit the Jousting Area and it was a pretty big area with three jousting fields or lists. From the way the lists are setup I think the two further lists are for jousting practice and the one with the stands is for tournaments.

There is also this round shaped arena but I do not know what it is for and a little further down is a Market Area. The Teleporter lists it as Old Marketplace. From there I teleported to the New Marketplace which was still very much empty, my guess is that they are still moving, and right beside the New Marketplace is the Fair Grounds.

My visit to Carmarthenshire ended at the Fair Grounds but there are still much more places to visit and explore around the sim. I am very much sure that I have missed a few spots around the sim and did I mentioned that I only visited MERLINS FOREST which is only one of the two sims that makes up Carmarthenshire? The other sim is MERLINS SHRINE but I will leave this one for you to explore.

Overall, I like what they did in Carmarthenshire. The only two places that I did not quite like are the two Market Areas. Why? Because both looked very disorganized and I find that using a Teleporter to get there (at least that was how I did it) will not be very appealing for a shopper but that is just me.

Anyway, I enjoyed my visit to Carmarthenshire and if you are interested in medieval/fantasy/arthurian roleplay then you’ll find a notecard with all the information you will need to get started at the Old Marketplace. The information box thingy located at the landing area does not have any information in it. LOL! For those interested in medieval combat, Carmarthenshire has it too.
