SoaLohne and SteelHeart meet


Soa met SH around April 2011 when SteelHeart's ship was on fire. She offered to fleet him to extinguish it with her firefighting skill. He declined. Weeks later, Soa ran into him again and struck up a conversation. SH was on his way to India and Soa offered to tag along. He declined. More time passed and Soa learned that SH was actually in China, not on the East Coast, USA like she had imagined (12 hrs difference). They started hanging out daily and Soa learned that SH had been playing for years on the Chinese server until they shut it down!  Sadly for Soa, in November of 2012 - SH wasn't permitted to log in on the US server because they opened the Chinese server back up. Here's SH on the new Chinese server with a few of his many Characters.
(I guess no one is cooking for him because he lost a ton of weight, too!)




LohneHeart is founded!

In June 2011, SteelHeart asked SoaLohne to start a company. As SH is a manager in real life, he didn't want to be the director of a company. SoaLohne had been a guild director before, so she was up for the challenge, plus she got to name the company! When Soa suggested the name LohneHeart to SH, he questioned it, more than once. Maybe we should call it the RoyalNavalFleet or something - he was concerned that people wouldn't join a guild named LohneHeart.  I reassured him that LohneHeart was the perfect name and 1 Million dollars later - LohneHeart was founded in Seville.

LohneHeart grows


We were awarded Company House #16 in August 2011. We became a rank 8 (highest rank) company in May of 2013 and maintained #16 company house until sometime after SoaLohne's sudden departure in June 2013.

We started a Georgia Colony (coordinates 12787,3507) in late 2011 when colonies were first introduced to the Gama server.  It took a few months to grow the population and construct all the buildings.  We chose Georgia for three reasons. One, it was close to the Caribbean and we knew that would be helpful when trading, adventuring, or battling in the area. The second reason is Soa and aldo (a former member) had lived in Georgia in real life.  Three, there wasn't much guidance on colonies because they were brand new to the server and our guess which area would be best was as good as any guesses that we heard at the time. 




It took a company-wide effort but we managed to build an amazing colony! 
Our colony offers: 
- a variety of goods with four Markets 
- a bank 
- tavern
- shipyard 1 - shipwright to make repairs
- shipyard 2 - shipmaster to build ships
- Archives (6 Nations)
- craftshop - sewing recipes
- Salon - to report discoveries
- Government Building - change jobs and acquire skills
- Arsenal - purchase of ship parts and aids in ship proficiency
- Town Square - a relaxing place to hang out

With the introduction of East Asia in the fall of 2012, we unlocked Nanban Trading in Tamsui and have a Company Liner that leaves Seville on the even hours (PST) and goes non-stop to Tamsui. It's a 35 min liner ride and it deducts 10 credits from Nanban company credits.  It leaves Tamsui for the return trip on the odd hours (PST) for another 10 credits. Members can help with these credits at the Company admin office in Seville by donating low backstock using the Nanban contribution button.




LohneHeart is open to any level from any Nation. We do ask that members make contribution deliveries each month on the 15th or shortly thereafter.. We will provide the items needed, if necessary. Members are always encouraged to help each other make the items if they have the skills needed. LohneHeart  members are mostly adults and we are relatively drama free.  Company members dabble in Adventuring Trading and Battling.  Our members' skills include shipbuilding up to and including R20, handicrafts, sewing, cooking and casting; traders that deal in spice, jewels, metals, and Nanban; Adventure skills all over the map; battling skills that will make even a pirate shutter or take you deep into a dungeon. LohneHeart members have always been self-sufficient, and are willing to help you achieve the same.  We are recruiting! If you are interested in joining, go to the Company Administration Office in Seville and send a request OR click on any LohneHeart member's character screen and use "Company Entry Request" button.
