/builders/ - Hero and Nation Builders!

OTHER RULES:

ARMIES/COMBAT:

While you can use your population count for some level of passive defense, you must raise standing armies to attack other players. Standing armies can be difficult to maintain in large numbers, since they require double the food of normal population. So if I have an army of 1000 and a population of 10,000, the total food production needed to keep my citizens fed would be 12,000. So, care must be taken when recruiting to avoid overstretching your food consumption.

GODS:

Gods will not appear right away. Instead they will come to you once you accomplish a certain threshold. The form the god takes and the powers he/she bestows will be based on your fluff and actions leading up to the discovery. Some may be stronger than others, if you feel you’ve been drastically cheated or want to complain about a significant issue let me know. New magic can be researched by using divine favor, the more powerful the magic is the more favor will be required. You can only research magic that is within the god/goddess’s sphere of influence. Gods will NOT directly intervene in worldly affairs, no matter how much you beg, and you can only worship one god/goddess at a time.

TRADING:

Civilizations can trade resources with no problems, but you can only trade one technology per turn and it costs an action to do so. It is a free action and automatically succeeds, but note that it will still count as a roll and add to the difficulty threshold as explained below.

ROLL SYSTEM:

I’ll be using Nimble’s system for rolls, where you can take as many actions as you want, but each action increases the difficulty threshold by 10. So if I wanted to do 3 actions, I’d have to roll a 30 or above, but if I wanted to just do 1 action I’d only have to get a 10 or above. 9 actions would mean I’d have to get a 90 or above! Note that bad things may happen if you fail a roll, and if you roll a 1 VERY bad things will happen. On the other hand, rolling a 100 will cause very good things to happen.

HOW DIVINE FAVOR WORKS:

You can use divine favor in a variety of ways. You can use it to research magic, both for war and for peacetime. You can also use it to create demigods, powerful units that will boost your military's strength greatly. Lastly you can use it to circumvent bad stuff from happening as a result of low rolls (cost is 3 favor, note that you'll still fail the roll and critfails cannot be avoided in this manner. Favor must be used before the next update, and keep in mind that said bad stuff will happen on rolls that are less than half the roll amount needed to succeed). The more favor you put into an action in this manner, the more powerful the magic or demigod will be. Note that some spells and magic may require a LOT of favor to achieve the desired effect.

Also note when choosing a location black tiles cannot be settled upon, and venturing into them will only lead to death, as they stretch on forever and will drain the life right out of your explorers.

Updates will be rolled out shortly, so unless you're a new player don't post yet

Unfortunately the fish-flavored paste is absolutely disgusting and no one wants to brush with it. Ataninnuaq will have to find a way to get people to actually brush with the paste before it can actually be effective.

Tabukvik finds greater success, developing large ships that can traverse the open seas, although only for short distances. Still, there are rumors of an island to the south that the ships can probably reach. Change Improved Shipbuilding (triremes) to Intermediate Shipbuilding (quinquiremes).

The soldiers and carpenters of Skrael work tirelessly to repair the Warrior's Lodge, and repair it they do, bigger and better than it was before! The Warrior's Lodge becomes a cultural treasure of the Skraeli and can house and train even more soldiers than before, allowing for faster troop training and development. Change Skraeli Warrior's Lodge (Damaged) to Superior Skraeli Warrior's Lodge and gain 1 happiness.

>>45781

Finally the ground dries and the road between Moskva and Tula is complete. Now travelers will be able to traverse the great distances much easier. Change Paved Roads (Lipin Bor to Moskva) to Paved Roads (Lipin Bor to Moskva, Moskva to Tula) and gain a Happiness Token (gives +5 to a single action, must be used when you roll, cannot be used after, also only one can be used per roll)

A town hall is quickly built in Tula made of marble and gold, which more resembles a palace than anything else. Its beauty serves as a stark contrast to the plain wooden buildings of the frontier town and people from all over the lands of the Rus flock to visit the new temple. This will make administration much easier and give the local lord a posh place to reside. Gain the Rus Lord's Palace (Tula), gain 2 happiness tokens and gain 1 favor.

Unfortunately everyone is so caught up in making the town hall great that little attention is paid to the church, and thus the construction is delayed.

The Rus do indeed locate some cattle, but the stubborn beasts refuse to be trained, the bulls furiously repelling any who would try to tame the beasts with their long horns and fast charges.

>>45782

Again no progress is made, it seems that the settlers are too preoccupied with projects at home to bother with exploring and claiming new lands.

However, the papermakers of the Nile are pleased to present their new discovery - a new papyrus making method that results in sturdy yet supple paper perfect for writing upon! Now the mapmakers will most certainly be able to create even greater maps, using this new papyrus unique to the Kingdom of the Nile. Improve Very Basic Paper (Papyrus) to Basic Paper (Nile Papyrus) and gain 2 happiness.

The men return with a shining yellow metal which is indeed rare and incredibly valued for its beauty and scarcity. This will make a perfect metal indeed for the top of the pyramid. Gain the Gold luxury resource and 1 happiness.

The people of the Nile use their papyrus reeds to create sturdy nets capable of catching large and meaty fish and allowing the ships of the Nile to net massive hauls, feeding many people. Gain the Very Basic Fishing (Nile nets), get the fish food resource and raise food production to 16,000.

>>45836

200 brave souls rush to the defense of Francisia in her darkest hour, much to the delight of the citizens who fear a counterattack by the Mauri. With a little more troops the Francisians may be able to destroy the Mauri for good. Gain 200 troops.

>>45877

The citizens rejoice as the beautification project begins in Ferrumterra. Buildings are taken down only to be replaced with glorious marble structures, with the most important buildngs being lavishly decked out with gold, iron and bronze embellishments. The citizens are happy with the city, and the new arrivals are honored to live in such a great city blessed by Salacia. Add Ornate Buildings (Ferrumterra) to your buildings tab, gain 1 favor and gain 1 happiness.

The proposal to use another medium other than stone infuriates a faction of Mediterran leadership, who lead a revolt centered on the eastern side of the main Mediterran island. There a walled city is built, where the leader of the rebellion, a man named Mercurio, leads his new "nation" of Tabulaterra. The revolt, if left unchecked, will only gain more momentum unless stopped by force. Lose 1000 population, lose 3 happiness and gain a powerful and pissed off rebellion.

In addition to their chickens the farmers of Mediterra discover oxen inhabiting the valleys of Corsica, which are quickly tamed. These creatures are not only good for meat but also for their milk, and make great beasts of burden. Change Very Basic Animal Husbandry to Basic Animal Husbandry, gain the oxen food resource and increase food production to 16,250.

>>45887

More date farms are constructed, starting with Alu-Tiamatu, much to the delight of the people. Change Dates to Dates+, gain the Date Farms (Alu-Tiamatu) building and raise food production to 16,750.

However a severe drought makes for a bad harvest in Alu-Sarrum, and many people starve to death before the drought ends and food production returns to normal levels. Lose 600 population.

Plenty of soldiers from across Babylonian lands are recruited to serve in the mighty Babylonian armies. Gain 250 troops.

The smiths and soldiers grow unhappy when word of a proposal for a new spear design comes up. They are proud of the original design and absolutely refuse to change it, much to the chagrin of the leaders of Babylon. Lose 1 happiness.

>due to Westerner's 100 I'll allow the trade of more than 1 tech this turn but in the future it's one tech or other trade item per turn)

The trade with the Trojan goes through without a hitch and the ideas are exchanged. The Trojans bring over their finest farmers who teach the Babylonians about the mills and selective breeding practices of their people. This increases Babylon's food production greatly, and the people benefit greatly from the full food stores. Gain the Basic Selective Breeding tech and the Very Basic Mills tech. Also increase food production to 19,250.

>>45918

>czeched

Samson beams with delight as 300 brave men sign up to defend the Free City. They are quickly given blades and armor and trained to be fierce and strong defenders. Gain 300 troops.

The mineshafts are reinforced with wood and stone and a temple is made deep in the mines, with stone statues of Mantus lining the path to guide the way. The people take solace within the depths of the mountains, feeling closer to the God Below than ever before. Gain the Temple of Mantus (Free City of Elsass) building, gain 1 faith and gain 1 favor.

Julius feels satisfied as he unveils a new shield design made of wood and reinforced with metal. This shield is lightweight and durable, with a square shape designed perfectly for defending the mountain chokepoints as Julius wished. Gain the Very Basic Shields tech and increase troop strength to +7 for every 100 troops.

>>45983

The slaves, taskmasters and architects work hard on the new temple and a new great temple is made, adorned with gold and pearls. Though it could still be improved upon, the architects are quite pleased with themselves, as the temple is nonetheless a very fitting tribute to the Lord of the Seas. Change the Palace (disrepair) building to the Grand Temple of Poseidon (Rhodes) building, gain 1 happiness and gain 1 favor.

The Trojans find an old harbor among the ruins and set out to repair it. Making use of the existing infrastructure they're able to add a Trojan flair in addition to the old architecture, and the natural terrain surrounding the harbor makes for an excellent and easily defensible place to build the new docks. Gain the Trojan Harbor (Rhodes) building, gain 1 happiness and gain 2 favor.

Next to the great harbor, the Trojans build a fortress to serve as a barracks for the soldiers as well as to make the harbor and city of Rhodes more defensible. It is built in short order and quickly staffed with soldiers and troop trainers. Gain the Fortress-Barracks (Rhodes) building.

A new design for the Trojan warship is built as well. Named the Quinquireme, this ship is bulky yet tough, and able to carry a wide variety of troops and cargo across greater distances. Change Improved Shipbuilding (Triremes) to Intermediate Shipbuilding (Quinquiremes) and increase ship strength to +8 to combat for every 5 quinquiremes.

>due to Westerner's 100 I'll allow the trade of more than 1 tech this turn but in the future it's one tech or other trade item per turn)

The trade with Babylon goes off without a hitch, and soon the Babylonian techniques spread to Trojan lands, greatly improving productivity. The Trojans, with their newfound knowledge, learn to domesticate grapes and onions, increasing the granaries of Troya greatly. Change Very Basic Farming to Improved Farming, gain the grapes and onions food resources, and increase food production to 18,750.

>>45987

The runesmiths of Ylfing pray to Tyr who blesses the runesmiths with the knowledge of a new spell. The runesmiths find that, with the power of magic, they can shape the metals that they find far easier than they could ever have done before, allowing for superior weapons and armor. Gain the Minor Shape Metal spell, increase troop strength to +13 for every 100 troops, and lose 1 favor.

Jarl Ylfing finds it hard to organize the explorers, who all seem to want to do their own thing. Maybe if he asserts himself in the future he may be able to herd them together.

He finds similar troubles in organizing architects, as the various architects have formed their own organizations and refuse to cooperate with one another. This only leads to arguments and unrest amongst the architects and their lackeys. Lose 1 happiness.

>>46044

The Han stretch their borders westward around the coast of the Black Sea and discover many suitable spots for a new outpost to be founded. Gain 5 territories.

As the mages and priests pray to Xi Wangmu for her guidance, a scintillating green orb descends from the heavens and dissipates, spreading to the minds of the people. They cast the new spell and thorn bushes about the size of a large dog and shaped like Far Eastern dragons grow from the earth. Upon future inspection these bushes are actually alive, and can move about like a snake on the earth (although it must be rooted to the ground or it'll quickly wilt and die). Unfortunately those that are mobile wilt and die much more quickly than those that remain planted into the earth, although the mobile ones can still last through a battle. Gain the Han Dragonthorn spell, which allows you to either a) summon dragonthorns as troops that last for one battle or b) summon dragonthorns as permanent defenses around settlements. Their effectiveness is dependent on the roll to cast them.

Xi Wangmu grants the Han another spell, which grants guidance on matters of health and protection. Gain the Minor Guidance of Xi Wangmu (Protection) spell and increase population growth to 2.75%.

>>46074

I gotta work tomorrow and I'm not sure when I'll be off next yet so I'm gonna update now and give you a makeup turn, please post as separate turns.

Also lose 88 troops.

If an action is unfeasible or impossible given current conditions (i.e. researching robots, nukes, etc. with bronze/iron age tech) it'll always fail, regardless of roll (even 100).

>Nation name:

Francisia

>Color:

Blue

>Fluff:

Francisians see themselves as the only civilized people. They have strict moral codes and obey the laws of chivalry to the best of their ability. The laws of chivalry are the only thing holding them back in war as they often find that the most effective warfare is "too barbaric" however they make up for this with their graceful fighting techniques and advanced siege weapons. Within the cities of Francisia, crimes are taken much more seriously than in barbaric lands with an almost draconian rule. Those that commit crimes meet with the business end of the executioner’s axe. Even being impolite to another Francisian can have a man put in the pillory for a few hours. To pass the time Francisians train in their preferred profession. Fighters learn better fighting techniques, chefs learn more extravagant recipes, and philosophers debate and discuss. Thanks to the evidence of there being gods, the philosophy of many Francisians is one of honour through war as even the divine war with each other.

They are known to the neighboring tribes for their black pottery, strange animal statues watching over their cattle fields, and necropolis. Since no god has approached them yet they believe in spirits of nature, animals, and people and seek to deal with or control them into doing what they desire. Now with the rise of a new warlord they seek to extend their dominance to those around them as well.

+ Mantus (Earth, Metals, Darkness, Protection): 3

1. Quickly Friedrich stepped through the coal dust past the dozens of paths branching off into other parts of the mountain like arteries through a body. There were a great many of them, but not once Friedrich chose wrong. The Mountain had become his new home ever since the arrival of Mantus. Man had not been made to live beneath the earth and so he had to return to the surface every now and again, but perhaps one day that too would change. Finally he laid eyes upon the statues of Mantus, it was only a little further now. He had questions, of Men, Gods and everything inbetween. Finally he would no longer have to dream up answers to questions others deemed impossible to unveil.

+ Basic Religion ("God Below")

2. Samson was pleased. The men had their delusions taken from them by Mantus, a benevolent god he was truly. But while their weapons were made of iron so their discipline would have to be as well. Samson would assign the soldiers to groups of 10, small families to eat, sleep, train and fight together. While each and every one of them would have to excel in combat on their own, they would have to perform even more admirably as a unit.

+ Research Discipline/Formation Fighting

3. Julius scoffed as he looked down from his house onto the soldiers exercising in the fields. Samson truly believed that it was man who decided the battle, when clearly it was technology. What use were his swords when they could be so easily outranged on the battlefield? Spears, he had heard, were far superior. He would make some just to prove a point. A swordsman could be as daring as he wanted to, but to charge into a wall of speartips was a fool's errand, especially if that wall of spears was staring up at you from the darkness of a mineshaft.

+ Research Spears

4. Invent an alphabet, cause apparently nobody knew how to write all along.

>Nation name: Qarthak

>Color:

>Fluff:

At the tip of Africa closest to the pennisulaic boot that was home to the Mediterrans and Roman empires, grew a hamlet. It was small, so very small against the harsh unforgiving sands of the great desert to the south. Yet it grew, it's people fished bounteous sea, and it's farmers oh so very carefully cultivated crops from the sparse patches of arable farmland.

Over time more and more people came to this oasis againt the desert, not born on the tears of the Nile but by hard, patient diligent working of the land and sea. hard diligent work that expanded the small village into a city. Acity that stood aginst the harsh heat, shifting sands and burning wind of the desert, and found it's secret places, the oases filled with water and hills and valley filled with stone and ore.

Thus Qarthak grew into being. A city that was seemingly at odds with itself. The people and rulers of the city swath themselves in color rarely found in other nations, their tents bright and colorful and the people cheerful. however the permanent buildings are all drab, utilitarian and squat. The city's inner clash even extends to the minds and hearts of people, who can be kind and generous to the much less fortunate, but are miserly and judgmental of those who they deem brought it on themselves. Thus the city of Colored Cloth and Brown Stone exists.

(If this hits zero, you die. Affects various things, such as your ability to passively defend your territory, the maximum size of your armies, and more)

>Food production:

11,000

(Number represents how many people are being fed with your current production levels, you can go above this but it will lead to hunger levels rising. Food production can be increased by building relevant buildings and researching food tech. Note that standing armies will consume twice the amount of food as normal)

>Population growth:

1%

(Add this percentage to your population every turn. Can be increased by researching relevant techs, such as medicine and so on. Having your hunger level at SURPLUS will double population growth)

>Hunger:

None (Affected by food production, can also be lowered as a result of bad rolls/critfails. Having your hunger level dip too low will cause people to start dying.)

>Territory:

1 (The amount of land you control)

>Outposts/towns/cities:

1 Capitol City (you can only build outposts from scratch, they can be upgraded to towns and cities later. Affects population growth, also the more developed the city the stronger the passive defense will be. Also you can build one of any given building in a city, having more cities will allow you to build more of the same building. Outposts/towns/cities cannot be within two tiles of another city.)

>Happiness:

0 (Ranges from -10 to +10. A happiness of 8 or above will grant a +5 boost to all actions, whereas a happiness of -5 or lower will lead to reduced productivity. A happiness of -8 or below will lead to revolts, and a happiness of -10 will lead to a coup and loss of control over your civilization, effectively meaning game over for you.)

Nation Name: Wallachia

Color: Dark-Red/ Burgundy

Fluff: Wallachia could not stand without war. She wars for independence from distant and foolish sovereignty. She wars to be free from foreign overlord. Her heroes are soaked in the cruelties they performed on their enemies like the hands of a maddened butcher. The greatest battle to be fought was the Night Attack at Târgovişte where the greatest hero of Wallachia, Vlad III The Impaler, slew thousands and burned the dreams of would-be conquerors. Having outmaneuvered or outlasted those that would shackle her, Wallachia now stands free and royal. Memory of success turns into history and patriotism. Defenders of Wallachia ever hope to emulate the heroes of old.To become a figure of inspiration to their countrymen and Void Bringer incarnate to invaders.

Wallachia's successes endure thanks to the centrality of militarism in all aspects of Wallachian life and the incentivisation of war in elite competition. Access to the black sea and its prominent trade centers means merchant culture has every opportunity to enrich our people alongside military expansionism. While invaders and their peoples are treated to either public execution or slavery. The lands brought to heel by the Wallachian elite are subject to considerably lenient policies by comparison. Rebellions are best dealt with by public execution of the leadership and their families. The surest rise to prominence for the common man is through war, trade and providence in support of Wallachia.

(Domains available: Water, storms, life, protection)- 3)

1. This rebellion bodes extremely poor. We must handle this very carefully. Mediterran fighting Mediterran is a nightmare scenario for us. Send Scipio to the rebellion as peace offering. If the stone writing is that important we will make it a permanent part of our society, a cultural tradition. We will even offer Mercurio a position as head of new colonization (hopefully he will take the honor and go far from us to crete to resume setting up the colony there)

2. We need to begin planning for the Sardinian warriors by building the temple of war there. To train holy Salacian zealots from their populace.

3. Double down on our effort to recapture Tabulaterra by putting religious pressure on the commoners involved in the rebellion. The temple of Salacia is headquartered in our capital along with the clergy. If mercurio begins losing his support among the commoners the rebellion will collapse without us needing to keep our promises or using the military

"Mint" is something unheard of in the frozen plains of Gronland, although Ataninnuaq manages to find a suitable solution by making the toothpaste fairly bland and flavorless, which the people are willing to brush with. Still, the medicinal herbs work well in getting the people's teeth clean. Change Improved Hygeine to Basic Hygeine and gain the Very Basic Sewage tech (outhouses should be in their own category since it's more related to sewage than hygeine, this doesn't affect anything as far as game mechanics go). Also change population growth to 5.25%.

Tabukvik does indeed manage to find a good spot where, using poles with longer strings, he is able to pull up a hefty fish, which he calls "halibut". It takes several men to haul up the heavy fish and Tabukvik's line snaps several times, but eventually he gets the technique down enough where he can at least get some of the fish. The new fish are enough to save the people from going hungry this winter. Change Intermediate Fishing to Fine Fishing and gain the Halibut food resource. Also increase food production to 17,000.

Ataninnuaq makes the journey east to the rumored island, discovering a frozen land with a climate not unlike Gronland, although he finds that the island has a fiery side too, most notably in the form of mountains billowing thick black smoke from their tops, almost like there is a great fire up there. There are also plentiful hot springs which would make excellent saunas, and jets of water that spout boiling hot water high into the air. Tabukvik claims several territories in the name of Skrael along the coast and he thinks that this would be an excellent place to build an outpost. Gain 3 territories.

>also change Intermediate Shipbuilding (Quinquiremes) to Intermediate Shipbuilding (Quadriremes), this doesn't change anything mechanically

>>46092

Much to the Francisians' relief, even more troops sign up to protect their homeland. Perhaps now Adelbert can be challenged and defeated. Gain 200 troops.

With a bit of Francisian ingenuity strips of linen are wrapped in a spiral, creating a springlike mechanism. Although linen isn't the ideal material, several smaller mechanisms can be made out of this. Gain the Intermediate Francisian Mechanisms tech (Basic machines, gears, linen torsion springs)

>>46105

The people of Aiseirigh push even further south, claiming many lands for their own. The claimed lands consist of rolling plains, suitable for farming. These plains would indeed be a good place to build a settlement, should the thane of Aiseirigh wish to do so.

The farmers and carpenters are able to build a great sheep farm with large pastures and a spacious barn made of sturdy wood. These sheep farms are intricately crafted, a palace for the sheep with shearing stalls to maximize wool production and plenty of space indoors to help the sheep survive the cold winters. The sheep farms quickly become a symbol of Achaidh's prosperity and provide industry and wealth to the city. Gain the Aiseirigh Sheep Farms (Achaidh), change food production to 17,000 and change the sheep resource to Sheep+++.

>remember to update population growth, it should be 12,399 (>>46125)

The warriors of Aiseirigh develop their training methods even further, allowing for more disciplined and skilled troops. This will help greatly with the war efforts of Aiseirigh. Change Basic Military Training to Improved Military Training and change troop strength to +12 for every 100 troops (this is a flat bonus that applies to all troops, please change your troop strength to reflect this)

>>46123

The shipbuilders get to work and complete the quadriremes in record time, producing far more than they anticipated. The navy of Troya will indeed be a force to be reckoned with now. Gain 35 quadriremes.

The lands along the coast to the south of Troya are quickly tamed and claimed in the glory of the Trojan homelands. The lands are fertile along the coasts and building a settlement or two here would be a good idea. In addition Rhodes is now but a hop and a skip away from the newly claimed territory, solidifying the kingdom and making travel easier. Gain 5 territories.

The Trojans venture out into the unknown trying to find new civilizations, but unfortunately become lost and don't make it very far. Luckily they're able to return back the way they came and make it back to Troy unharmed, but their efforts are fruitless.

The people take to riding horses extremely well, and the strong and smart Trojan horses make excellent partners. With this, the Trojans are able to come up with a unique and effective riding style which the Trojans pride themselves greatly upon. Gain the Very Basic Trojan Mounted Combat tech and increase troop strength to +13 for every 100 troops (this is a flat bonus that applies to all ground troops (but not ships), please change your troop strength to reflect this).

>>46124

The Nile explorers, using their superior maps and navigational skills, claim a massive swath of territory, nearly doubling the size of the Kingdom of the Nile. Many fertile lands await the explorers and settlers, and many a city can be built along the coastline. The coast around the Red Sea is slightly more arid but the waters teem with fish and sea life. Gain 16 territories.

The ships are improved even further, and grand ships are constructed, even better than the ones before. They are a cultural icon of the Nile and will prove to be extremely beneficial to war efforts. The ship themselves are huge, with four sails, and are much bigger and faster than the old ships. Gain the Intermediate Shipbuilding (Superior Nile Quadriremes) tech.

The Kingdom of the Nile finally completes their pyramid, crowning it with a top encased in solid gold. The pyramid is bigger than anything seen before, and civilizations to come would think that the pyramid to be an impossible construction, but through the hard work of the Nile workers it is done. The Pharaoh will have a monument that will be a lasting and powerful symbol of his greatness. Change the Great Pyramid (nearly finished) to the Great Pyramid of <insert name of person entombed here> (Giza), gain 3 happiness, gain 5 favor and gain a +5 bonus to all rolls for the next 5 turns.

>Your people are ecstatic! Gain a +5 bonus to all rolls as long as your happiness remains above 8.

The inventors of Babylon struggle to make the bows, they can't seem to find an elastic yet strong string to make the string out of. It'll take some time for them to figure it out.

The temple construction is interrupted by an uproar within the temple as the priests there argue over the proper way to worship Marduk. Unable to resolve their differences, the dissident priests take their followers and embark on an exodus from Babylon, making a settlement on the outskirts of the empire and raising many warriors to defend themselves, armed with stolen Babylonian weapons and armor. They will truly be a formidable foe to face in battle and will undoubtedly become a serious threat to Babylon if left unchecked. Lose 1000 population, lose 3 happiness and gain a formidable enemy civilization on your borders.

Fortunately spear construction goes a bit better, as even with all the chaos happening the Babylonian smiths manage to make sturdier and pointier Babylonian spears. Increase troop strength to +12 to combat rolls for every 100 troops and change Very Basic Babylonian Spears to Basic Babylonian Spears.

>>46212

Friedrich spends many a day in the temple of Mantus, emerging to the surface only to eat and sleep. He sees visions of Mantus in his dreams, and by the time he comes out of the temple he has come up with a list of teachings to guide the people and give substance to their religion. With these teachings, the religion of Elsass becomes the most sophisticated in the world, much to the delight of Mantus and the citizens alike. Change Basic Religion to Improved Religion ("God Below"), gain 2 happiness and 2 favor.

Samson's proposals lead to arguments amongst the higher-ranking troops, who each insist on their own ways of training the troops, some saying that the existing methods are sufficient enough. Samson, with a massive headache, decides to give up on training for now until he comes up with a solution they can all agree on. Still, the arguments cause division amongst the troops and unrest grows in Elsass. Lose 1 happiness.

Still, Julius's actions bear fruit, and Elsass develops its first spears with iron spearheads and sturdy wooden shafts. Julius beams with pride as his new invention will greatly help the military. Increase troop strength to +8 to combat rolls for every 100 and gain the Very Basic Spears tech.

Unfortunately people can't understand the alphabet the Elsass scholars propose, and they'll have to go back to the drawing board and figure out a new, simpler method.

>>46223

The settlers flock in droves to the new city, attracted by new opportunities and possibilities. Xi'iang grows exponentially in just a few days, and before long it is a proper city almost matching Xinyang. Add Xi'iang (City) to your outposts/towns/cities tab and improve population growth to 4.25%.

Though Xi Wangmu is willing to give her advice, the scholars are able to make little sense of it. The milk and wine burns and the water just boils away. Perhaps with a little more guidance they can try again in the future.

The proposals are met with even more grumbling and division as all the teaching methods presented are dismissed by the teachers, who insist that their teaching methods are far superior. They even take offense to the thought that these obviously inferior methods were somehow better than what they were doing. Lose 1 happiness.

The idea of recognizing scholars is accepted much more however, and the brilliant minds of the Han appointed to the new scholar caste beam with pride as their achievements are finally recognized. Gain the Scholar Caste tech and gain 1 happiness.

>>46228

>Happiness caps at 10, it doesn't increase beyond that, but you get happiness tokens for every point that goes over that limit

This time goes much worse for the hapless cattle tamers, as the cattle are now on the defensive and fight like cornered beasts, the individual herds acting in unison to repel the Tatars. The hapless ranchers return home, obviously disgruntled and upset after receiving several serious gore wounds. Lose 1 happiness.

Finally, the church in Tula is built, much to the delight of the Tulans who no longer have to make perilous treks in the cold and snow to Moskva to do their praying and worship. Gain the Church of Svarog (Tula) building, gain 1 happiness and gain 1 favor.

A school is built in Moskva, giving children a place to learn and study. This will be a big help to scholarly affairs in the lands of the Rus. Gain the School (Moskva) building.

The scribes struggle at first, but are barely able to piece together an alphabet that can be used to verbally communicate ideas through writing. Gain the Rus Alphabet tech and 1 happiness token

>>46252

The leaders of Qarthak put out a call for troops, but the few who volunteer prove to be unfit for service. They'll have to try again later.

However, the Qarthakinians manage to put together a dyer's shop where they can produce greater amounts of dyes and apply them to more fabrics than they could before. Gain the Dyer's Shop (<insert name of capital city here>) building, gain 1 happiness and change Dyes to Dyes+.

>>46253

The Wallachians put their best scholars on the job, and much to their surprise the study of mathematics comes to them like breathing air, almost as if a divine force is guiding them. The knowledge of math improves by leaps and bounds, which will undoubtedly help the Wallachians in many areas. Gain the Improved Wallachian Mathematics tech and 3 happiness. Gain 1 favor as well (see below).

Despite the leaps and bounds made by the mathematicians the Wallachians find that there aren't quite enough furs and horses to go around as makeshift currency, and as a result the people refuse to give up what little they have. Perhaps another try is in order, or perhaps the Wallachians can try another, more standardized means of currency.

Thankfully recruitment goes better for the Wallachians. 200 brave souls gladly sign up for service with the Wallachians, and are given spears, armor and training. Gain 200 Wallachian Swordsmen (+7 to combat rolls for every 100). You can rename these whatever you like and split up troop types (horsemen, swordsmen, etc.) however you see fit.

The Wallachians find great success again, making a sturdy, lightweight and powerful shield fit for the warriors of Wallachia. The shields quickly become a symbol of Wallachia's growth to success and power. The shields themselves are square, a good fit for cavalry and infantry alike. They provide good coverage and are ideal for formations. Gain the Very Basic Wallachian Shields tech and increase troop strength to +9 for every 100 troops.

>>46298

Though the efforts of the diplomats find some success in gaining sympathy through their acceptance of the tablets, many are still skeptical, saying that the Mediterrans do not truly believe in the true value of the holy tablets and their efforts are an empty attempt to placate them. More disturbingly, the tablet rebellion has sparked a full-on schism, with the Tabulaterrans having developed many new and separate beliefs, many of which are incompatible with the primary Salacian priesthood's teachings. As a result, the offering of Scipio di Salacia is rejected by the Tabulaterrans, who consider him a false prophet. Still they are respectful enough to allow him to at least leave their city in one piece, and he returns home unharmed. Although it appears that this upstart civilization will be much harder to tame through diplomatic means than the simpler Sardinian warrior tribes, the Mediterrans' efforts do bear fruit as many of the Mediterran sympathizers put pressure on Mercurio to cease hostilities, at least for now. The relationship with Tabulaterra has changed from hostile to resentful.

Logistical errors prevent the construction of the new Temple-Barracks of Ferrumterra as the builders are dismayed to be find that not enough materials are shipped and sometimes the wrong materials make their way to them. The Mediterrans will have to wait on the construction until the builders can reorganize and give more concise orders for appropriate building material.

Roll is for how well the Tabulaterrans resist your attempts at cultural takeover

CULTURAL TAKEOVER RESULTS - MEDITERRA VS. TABULATERRA

TABULATERRA ROLL: 95 + 30 = 125

The Tabulaterrans quickly catch on to the Mediterrans' activities and the priests are none too happy about it. The missionaries are promptly expelled from Mediterran lands and are given a stone tablet, which reads as follows:

"As the treachery of Mediterra has been brought to light, be informed that the gates of Tabulaterra are now closed, any Mediterran trespassers will be met with hostile force.

Not good.

Relations with Tabulaterra have deteriorated back to hostile.

Nation Name: Wallachia

Color: Dark-Red/ Burgundy

Fluff: Wallachia could not stand without war. She wars for independence from distant and foolish sovereignty. She wars to be free from foreign overlord. Her heroes are soaked in the cruelties they performed on their enemies like the hands of a maddened butcher. The greatest battle to be fought was the Night Attack at Târgovişte where the greatest hero of Wallachia, Vlad III The Impaler, slew thousands and burned the dreams of would-be conquerors. Having outmaneuvered or outlasted those that would shackle her, Wallachia now stands free and royal. Memory of success turns into history and patriotism. Defenders of Wallachia ever hope to emulate the heroes of old.To become a figure of inspiration to their countrymen and Void Bringer incarnate to invaders.

>Wallachia's successes endure thanks to the centrality of militarism in all aspects of Wallachian life and the incentivisation of war in elite competition. Access to the black sea and its prominent trade centers means merchant culture has every opportunity to enrich our people alongside military expansionism. While invaders and their peoples are treated to either public execution or slavery. The lands brought to heel by the Wallachian elite are subject to considerably lenient policies by comparison. Rebellions are best dealt with by public execution of the leadership and their families. The surest rise to prominence for the common man is through war, trade and providence in support of Wallachia.

>Nation name:

Francisia

>Color:

Blue

>Fluff:

Francisians see themselves as the only civilized people. They have strict moral codes and obey the laws of chivalry to the best of their ability. The laws of chivalry are the only thing holding them back in war as they often find that the most effective warfare is "too barbaric" however they make up for this with their graceful fighting techniques and advanced siege weapons. Within the cities of Francisia, crimes are taken much more seriously than in barbaric lands with an almost draconian rule. Those that commit crimes meet with the business end of the executioner’s axe. Even being impolite to another Francisian can have a man put in the pillory for a few hours. To pass the time Francisians train in their preferred profession. Fighters learn better fighting techniques, chefs learn more extravagant recipes, and philosophers debate and discuss. Thanks to the evidence of there being gods, the philosophy of many Francisians is one of honour through war as even the divine war with each other.

>Nation name: skræl

>Color: Green

>Fluff: During the great cataclysm the native peoples of americas were quickly thrown into chaos and danger. great upheavals and migrations took place all over the continent as they tried to appease whatever god had gained control for the moment or were trying to flee the conflict outright. While the land slowly became the land of the dead many had begun to grow even more desperate and set out on the seas with primitive ships and with little navigation knowledge. Almost all died, but for the few that made it they reached greenland with those from Scandinavia who had already settled accepted them. Eventually even if they were small in number own their own, the sheer amount of different native groups reaching the land meant that they outnumbered the Scandinavians. Today, the current nation of skræl has homogenized ethnically, culturally, and linguistically with the original settlers forming core of all these things.

Everyone is healthy and clean with disease being much more rare than it once was, however there was always one aspect that was lacking. Something that did not get much attention due to lack of conflict. That of treating actual wounds. Broken bones and cuts, while the pain could be nullified and the wound cleaned it still had trouble healing. That is why in his final years Ataninnuaq has chosen to dedicate himself to surgery.

A crier will be sent to the town and they will be warned to cease and desist immediately or be declared heretics to be wiped out. Spilling the blood of fellow Mediterrans is regrettable but spilling the blood of heretics is to be delighted in. You will end this rebellion and submit to the inspection and questions of the church or you will feel the fury of your former countrymen.

2. Continue work on the temple of war in Sardinia. To train holy Salacian zealots from their populace.

>Nation name:

Borbograd

>Color:

>Fluff:

It all started with one farmer (whose name translates to "By the grace of God, a Dragon") who would challenge travelers to fight. Nothing fancy, just a fistfight or grapple, typically with some stakes, like a day of work on the farm vs a bottle of kvass. Some stuck around and made their farms nearby, and the tradition of fighting was started. Fighting was entertainment, dispute resolution, bonding and even a method of courtship. A system of honor developed, and a physically strong and socially-cohesive group grew, whose life purpose was to win the next fight. Crime was almost non-existent, for self-defense was almost assumed, and, when threatened from the outside, they made up for their lack of strategy, and sometimes even weapons by the incredible physical fitness and hand-to-hand combat capabilities of these people.

Muzhchina Voinovna, a great-granddaughter of that first pugilist-farmer, and one of the city's most elite fighters, has recently earned the title of Nayagina, roughly "Princess", a title which places upon her the responsibility of taming the unruly city, and turning their vigor to productive ends. And there is much to be done! There is a great wide world outside the city walls, with many places to explore, sights to see, and faces to punch!

>Fluff:

At the tip of Africa closest to the pennisulaic boot that was home to the Mediterrans and Roman empires, grew a hamlet. It was small, so very small against the harsh unforgiving sands of the great desert to the south. Yet it grew, it's people fished bounteous sea, and it's farmers oh so very carefully cultivated crops from the sparse patches of arable farmland.

Over time more and more people came to this oasis againt the desert, not born on the tears of the Nile but by hard, patient diligent working of the land and sea. hard diligent work that expanded the small village into a city. Acity that stood aginst the harsh heat, shifting sands and burning wind of the desert, and found it's secret places, the oases filled with water and hills and valley filled with stone and ore.

Thus Qarthak grew into being. A city that was seemingly at odds with itself. The people and rulers of the city swath themselves in color rarely found in other nations, their tents bright and colorful and the people cheerful. however the permanent buildings are all drab, utilitarian and squat. The city's inner clash even extends to the minds and hearts of people, who can be kind and generous to the much less fortunate, but are miserly and judgmental of those who they deem brought it on themselves. Thus the city of Colored Cloth and Brown Stone exists.

+ Mantus (Earth, Metals, Darkness, Protection): 5

1. To be closer to the mountain's womb was to be closer to the God Below. Man's flower bloomed beneath the endless blue skies, nourished by the sun, but could it not also grow beneath the mountain, fostered by the love of Mantus? Friedrich would speak to him, to learn what it would take to become one with the Depths.

2. The senseless bickering of soldiers would eventually subside and when it did Samson would implement the changes he had sought to bring about for a while now. The soldiers needed to become more than simple peasants with weaponry, they were the protectors of the Free City, the man made representation of Mantus, it was time for them to start acting like it.

3. Julius had outdone himself. The new weapon was marvelous and would work admirably for its purposes, but now he had various officers come to him, one more eager than the next to prove that he had the best ideas. They all wanted a new, better spear design and had a great many suggestions on how to improve the spear. While certainly in Julius' eyes all of their suggestions were foolish it did make one thing very clear to him: the demand for an even better spear. Certainly he was up for the task.

4. Something, presumably bandits, had proven an issue to the expansion of Elsass' farms in the past. Their tactics were unorthodox and it would hardly be possible to engage them in an open field battle with the entire army to support. New tactics to defend Elass lands were required. To counter clandestine actions by the bandits, whether it be scouting or attempts to dispatch guards under the cover of night. Certainly a hard task for ambush tactics had worked so well in the past. Samson's first born son, young officer of the Elsass Town Guards, Reinhart, would be tasked with this very important mission. After all, whom else could he trust with a task as important as this.

>>46343

First roll is for combat vs. Fulvius's bandits.

The reforms prove to be greatly effective as the Romans no longer march in blobs but in tight squares, with a clear chain of command to ensure easy communication and swift discipline. This does indeed revolutionize the Roman military, and the new reforms and restructuring are seen as a marvel of Roman military ingenuity. Gain the Very Basic Roman Military Structure and increase troop strength to +17 to combat rolls for every 100.

Finally some progress is made with the farms as the farmers and ranchers find plenty of suitable pastures for cows. Barns are built and plenty of new cattle are later born and raised to feed the growing Romans. Gain the Cow Farms (Florentia) building, raise food production to 18,250 and change Cows++ to Cows+++.

>The most powerful patricians in the Senate are greeted by another visit in their dreams from Apollo, who brings a message. "Greetings, I see your empire has been coming along nicely, and I have some advice for you to make it even greater. As the sun covers all with light from on high as it makes its journey through the skies, so too must you extend your dominion as it is true that size is the truest mark of a truly great empire. Show me how much you can grow and you will be rewarded." Though the dream seems to be over as quickly as it came, the Senate will have much to discuss the next time it meets. (Extra favor condition changed to acquiring new territory)

>>46348

The call to arms is raised once more and 200 troops answer the call in the name of their homeland. Gain 200 troops.

2nd roll is for your combat

The Francisians find the iron to be a less than ideal material to work with for wrapping tightly but are able to make a spring good enough for larger objects - though they would likely snap or be flattened if too much force is applied to them. Gain the Fine Francisian Mechanisms (Basic machines, gears, linen/iron torsion springs) tech.

>As the Francisian leadership drifts off to sleep they are greeted by the visage of Melusine who speaks to them in their dreams. "How boring, you haven't really entertained me much, all you seem to want to do lately is play with your little machine parts ALL day long…well then, I guess I'll give you something new to do. Go show me how well you can master my domain, the seas. Then maybe we can talk about some rewards for all your hard work…" As the dream ends and the leaders awake from their slumber they feel as though there is much to do in order to gain the favor of their goddess. (Extra favor condition changed to researching and building things related to the seas)

>>46349

Ataninnuaq, in his advanced age, nevertheless manages to invent a new method of healing by treating things that lie beneath the skin like broken bones by opening up the patient and putting the bone back into place, among other things. The method is quite painful and the jerking and squirming of the patient in severe pain makes things hard but Ataninnuaq still manages to make a little bit of a breakthrough and treat a few health problems. Gain the Very Basic Surgery tech and increase population growth to 5.5%.

Apparently Tabukvik is too busy exploring to bother fishing, which is unfortunate because the food stores back home are quickly running out…

But explore he does, and Tabukvik finds several new islands to explore. Though the islands are fairly unremarkable, they'll make decent stops in future journeys to the mainland. Gain 3 territories.

>Ataninnuaq is getting old and frail. He is becoming increasingly senile, and those close to him fear that he does not have long to live.

>Your people are running out of food! Change hunger to slight famine. Population growth is halved and you'll lose 100 people a turn while you're in slight famine status.

>While exploring the new islands Tabukvik reports of a much larger isle with a burgeoning and expansive kingdom. They are a warlike people, and unfortunately they follow one of the detestable gods, specifically a goddess of the forge named Brigid. Aside from their equipment and training they also excel in exploration and dyemaking.

>>46352

With a little hard work and dedication a farm is constructed in Xi'iang, growing a variety of things but primarily rice, the staple food of the Han. It does well in feeding the town and gives plenty of rice to cook and to trade. Gain the Rice Farms (Xi'iang building, change Rice++ to Rice+++ and raise food production to 19,500.

The fishermen of Xi'iang work to build a fishery next to the water's edge, but the noise of construction and human activity wakes a great beast (see 2nd picture) that thrashes about, spraying powerful jets of water towards the shore, flailing about to create small tidal waves, and swallowing fishermen who get washed into the ocean whole before sinking back into the depths of the sea. This monster, named "Jiaolong" by the locals, is a definite threat and, when it surfaces next, the Han should be ready. For now, though, they must clean up the damages and mourn the many unfortunate victims. Lose 325 people and gain a deadly giant sea monster lurking offshore, biding its time until it grows hungry for humans once more. (marked on map by grey diamond, may move around)

Alongside the new farms grass is planted for pastures, fences are built for livestock and barns are completed to house them. This will allow more oxen to be raised and kept and put more food on Han tables. Gain the Cattle Ranch (Xinyang) building, change Oxen to Oxen+ and change food production to 20,000.

The Han explorers head east from Shengli once more and claim many new territories. However, it is said that farther east lies the terrifying Void Wastes, a land of death where none can survive. Expansion in this direction will be limited, though there is still a considerable bit of distance between the new Han borders and the Void Wastes that can be covered. Gain 5 territories.

>As the Council slumbers on a cool autumn night they are visited by Xi Wangmu once more, who gives them the following message: "You have done well to grow your populace into a mighty force, and now I have a new task for you. I have imparted much of my power over plants and vegetation to you and now I would like to see what you can do with plants with your own power. Develop your agricultural abilities, build farms, and show me your mastery over plants. Do this and be rewarded." Xi Wangmu then bids the council members farewell as they wake up to start the new day. (Extra favor condition changed from gaining more population growth to doing things to advance your mastery of plants and vegetation)

>Gain 1 favor that I forgot to give you for the new city last turn

>>46353

The crier only barely makes it back to Mediterra bloody and wounded before eventually collapsing and dying before the entrance to the Mediterran Court of the King and its People. His body has been pierced several times with arrows, and it's a marvel he was able to make it this far. His last words, spoken to the guards of the palace, are "I failed my mission…please..avenge me.." With this the soldiers and people of Mediterra are stirred into a righteous fury, more resolute and determined than ever before. Gain a +1 to combat rolls when fighting Tabulaterrans.

The people are able to complete the Temple of War, but disaster strikes when a construction error brings it toppling down, killing all those celebrating its completion! A closer inspection reveals that the collapse was no accident but instead an act of sabotage! It appears the Tabulaterrans have found out about the Temple of War and have been undermining its progress! Unfortunately there is no trace of the ones responsible. It appears they've gone into hiding, but who knows for how long. Lose 460 population.

>>46374

A military command post is quickly assembled in Troy, giving the Trojan commanders a place to meet and direct the troops of Troy with greater ease. Gain the Military Command Post (Troy) building and increase troop strength to +14 for every 100 troops and +9 for every 5 ships.

The Trojans, seeing the might of their new navy, are more determined than ever to become the mightiest naval power in the known world, and they start by renovating the harbor. And renovate it they do, turning it into a marvel of engineering. The harbor is changed from a humble shipbuilding facility into a fortified port with plenty of drydocks, plenty of docks to accommodate even the largest of ships, a sea wall keeping out the tumultuous waves and currents of the ocean and even a small beacon to guide the ships home. With this, ship production will skyrocket and the Trojans will be able to build more ships than ever before. Gain the Legendary Trojan Harbor (can be renamed whatever you wish, just add (legendary) to the end if you wish to do so), gain 3 happiness tokens and gain 3 favor.

With such a massive and prosperous harbor there will be a need for wood, which the Trojans in Percote answer with a lumberyard to ship wood from their forests to the drydocks to be turned into plenty of ships. The extra wood will definitely help with projects that require it. Gain the Lumberyard (Percote) building and change Wood to Wood+.

The Trojans decide that instead of building many small forges scattered around the town, it would be best to centralize the forges and build one mighty metalworks with plenty of anvils, forges and tools for the various smiths and artisans. According to specifications it is surrounded by a stone wall, a feat the masons find much easier than building a wall around an entire district. The metalworks becomes a cultural symbol of Troy, making it an even greater city. Gain the Trojan Metalworks (Troy) building.

>As the sound of the waves causes the Trojan leaders to drift off to sleep, they are greeted in their dreams by Poseidon's voice. "Haha, you've indeed done well to conquer the waves. Well done. Now let's see if you're up to my next task for you. As you're most likely aware, I am not only lord of the seas but also of the beasts that walk this earth. Let me see your dedication by mastering them. Then perhaps I'll share some more of my power with you. I look forward to what you have to show me!" With that the booming voice fades to silence, and the Trojan leaders wake from their slumber feeling rejuvenated and ready to take on the task their god has laid out for them.

>>46381

Despite some early setbacks the Borbograd builders manage to complete their town hall, where the townsfolk may share their concerns with the leadership and the leadership may deliberate on important issues. This will help greatly with managing the otherwise unruly populace. Add Town Hall (Borbograd) to your buildings list and gain 1 happiness.

The citizens of Yeltsinski seem uninterested in idle brawling, though they do offer a trade: some of your extra rye for their cabbages. Doing this will likely improve your food stores, though they can revoke this trade of cabbage at any time. (accepting trade is a free action though it adds to your roll count)

The explorers of Borbograd find no new tribes but instead find a few herds of horses, which they break in and successfully domesticate. Change Basic Animal Husbandry to Improved Animal Husbandry, gain the Horses resource and change food production to 15,750.

The two gods appear again, both looking upset. "One cannot serve two hosts," says Perun, while Mikula chimes in "Why should I entrust you my powers when I can't even trust you to give me your full attention?" Both gods seem to agree, there can only be one choice. It seems Muzhchina will have to make that choice and choose a single god or risk losing the blessing of both.

Third dice roll is for your combat results

Though the lands are besieged by barbarian scum, the Cogotasi explorers find some luck exploring in the opposite direction. Here the Cogotasi find plenty of rolling plains interspersed with hills and the occasional patch of woodland, perfect for a wide variety of uses. They also expand westward for a bit, finding a nice fertile river basin perfect for a new city. Gain 3 territories.

The Cogotasi are quick to plant their roots along the riverside to the west, establishing a new outpost to make use of the arable farmland and ample woodlands. Add <insert city name here> (outpost) to your outposts/towns/cities tab and change population growth to 2.25%.

>>46394

This time several fresh soldiers volunteer for the Qarthakian army and are trained in spear and bow to defend the Qarthakian throne. Gain 200 Qarthakian Spearmen/Archers (+5 to combat rolls for every 100 troops) (you can divvy up the unit types however you wish and rename them whatever you want as long as it's reasonable and I have some idea about what unit type they are)

A navy is also gathered, although it's not as much as the Qarthakians would have hoped. 10 war galleys are constructed and set afloat, the first ships in what will hopefully become a powerful navy. Gain 10 Qarthakian War Galleys (+5 to combat rolls for every 5 ships)

The Qarthakians start digging into the nearby hills searching for valuables, and dig until their picks strike a vein of hard, red stone. Though the stones are rare, these "rubies" as they are called are quite valuable and sought after, bolstering the wealth and happiness of Qarthak. Gain the Rubies luxury resource and 1 happiness.

>>46398

Friedrich learns that the God Below is pleased with the efforts of the people of Elsass to become one with the depths as he is, and two artifacts appear. They appear to be lumps of ordinary stone at first glance, although they are adorned with glowing runes, each brimming with magical power. Should Friedrich accept, a new power will be bestowed upon the people of Elsass. The first is the power of Darksight, the ability to see as clear as day even in the pitch-black darkness of the night or of the cavernous depths. Though a simple-sounding power, this still gives the people of Elsass an advantage, giving them a bonus against foes caught in the dead of night or in the depths of the cave. It would also allow the people of Elsass to pick up roots and settle within the mines themselves, if they so wish. However, they would be without food, which is where the second rock comes in. The second rock grants the power to soften the earth and infuse it with a variety of nutrients, causing many edible mushrooms to bloom. With this, the people of Elsass may be able to give the people at least a little bit of sustenance should they decide to move underground permanently. Mantus then tells Friedrich to kneel and pray to the stone of his choice, and the more devotion he infuses within the stone the more powerful the spell he chooses will be. However, the stone not chosen will crumble into dust and disappear, at least for now, so Friedrich should choose wisely. (Choosing is a free action, using the roll for this action)

Samson comes up with a revelation during troop training and figures out how to make his training regimes much more effective than any seen before. The other officers immediately agree with the changes and pledge support to the proposal, and with it the Elsass army is revolutionized into a proper fighting force, disciplined and tempered by Samson's methods. The training methods become a symbolic part of the Elsass military, and an integral part of their culture. Gain the Very Basic Elsass Military Training tech and increase troop strength to +10 for every 100 troops.

Though Julius works tirelessly on improving the spear design, he is simply unable to top the old design, perhaps because of the other inventors pulling at his sleeves with their ideas and perhaps because of the pressure of trying to improve upon a tried and true design. In the end one thing is true, and that is that Julius will need to reorganize his thoughts and try again once things have calmed down somewhat.

Reinhart proves to be a natural at what he does, training the police force on the proper methods of patrolling and maintaining a constant vigil over the holds of Elsass. The patrols prove to be an incredible boon to the Free City, and people pick up the tradition of saluting patrolling guards, thanking them for their unfailing vigilance. The bandits, and anyone else foolish enough to strike at Elsass, will definitely give second thought to the idea upon seeing the Free City being so well defended. Gain the Very Basic Elsass Patrolling tech and gain 2 happiness.

>>46411

The citizens of the Nile, feeling their entrepreneurial spirit surge at the thought of all the new territories gained, flock southward to the Red Sea, quickly building a great city that would nearly rival Giza if not for the great shrines and pyramids there. The people there thrive and prosper with plenty of new industry and opportunities to keep them busy, and they grow fruitful and multiply. Add Qoseir (City) to your Outposts/Towns/Cities tab and increase population growth to 2.5%.

A second city is ordered to be constructed to in the western lands, and although it doesn't quite get the attention that Qoseir did there are still a fair amount of settlers willing to brave the long trek and establish a lasting city here. For now, it is just an outpost, small and humble, although it definitely has the potential to grow into quite the city indeed, should the Pharaoh give it the attention it requires to do so. Add Benben (Outpost) to your Outposts/Towns/Cities tab and increase population growth to 3%.

The strength of the Nile military grows greatly after an inventor presents a new, stronger spear with a sturdy shaft and sharp and effective spearhead. The spears are added as yet another cultural treasure of the Nile, and the new design is made uniform throughout the Nile military, a testament to Nile ingenuity and tenacity. Change Very Basic Spears (Bronze) to Basic Nile Spears and improve troop strength to +5 to combat rolls for every 100.

The response to the call to arms isn't particularly overwhelming as many of the people are occupied with the new cities in some way or other, but nevertheless 150 men are able to volunteer. They are trained in the ways of the spear and stand ready to defend their kingdom and pharaoh from whatever threats they may face. Gain 150 Nile spearmen.

>In the middle of a cool desert night the Pharaoh sleeps soundly in his bed, though he is greeted in his dreams by the voice of Osiris. "Well done, the monuments that you and your predecessors have built are great indeed, fitting representations of your respect towards the dead. However, it is important to take care of the living as well, which is why I entrust you with the task of promoting health and well-being amongst your people. Do this and you will see your numbers grow, and you shall be rewarded by me as well." The Pharaoh wakes up with a bit of a headache as he processes all the information and thinks of his next move, although it soon fades leaving only determination in its wake. (Extra favor condition changed to finding ways to raise population growth)

>Along your northern borders you hear reports of another civilization! This new civilization, calling itself "Babylon", is said to stretch from the Mediterranean Sea all the way across the deserts to a fertile valley far to the east. The Babylonians pride themselves on their intricate knowledge of writing and mathematics, and their vast lands are rich in mineral wealth. Will this new kingdom be friend or foe?

>>46412

Unfortunately for the Rus the new church in Lipin Bor is hit by a rogue lightning strike and burns to the ground, and although no one is hurt the loss of the church is quite traumatizing and disheartening to the people, who have sought a proper place of worship in their town for so long. Lose 1 happiness.

With a little luck the Rus are able to find an herb growing in the southern forests that the cattle like, and the once violent bulls and cows become subdued enough to be tamed, bred and domesticated. The Rus find that the tricks they learned can be used to better their knowledge of animal husbandry, and they feel delight in knowing that a breakthrough has been made in that field. Change Improved Animal Husbandry to Intermediate Animal Husbandry, gain the Cows food resource and change food production to 18,000.

Although the Rus find it hard to expand east due to inclement weather and terrain, they are able to march southwards and claim many territories in the name of the Tsardom. As expected, the weather grows warmer and the farming gets better as the Rus venture further south, and the Rus find ample places for settling and working the land. Gain 6 territories.

>On a cold winter's night in Moskva, the Tsar's sleeping quarters grow a little warmer, comforting him as he dreams soundly. In his dreams, he sees the visage of Svarog, a great fire burning brightly. Soon after, the flame takes the shape of the figure first seen by the Rus, and it begins to speak. "You have done well thus far in proving our devotion to the me through the churches and priesthoods that you've built, and now I have a new task for you. I am the Lord of the Forge, and as such I enjoy seeing a well-crafted piece of metal. Find ways to improve your own metalworking skills, and I will reward you with some knowledge of my own." The fire fades into the night and the chill of winter returns to the Tsar's room just in time to wake him up in the morning to start his day. He'll certainly have a lot to think about and do. (Extra favor condition changed to improving your skills with metal, i.e. making new weapons/tools, improving metalworking techniques, building forges, etc.)

>Please list your god and domains in the Divine Favor tab, not just your favor. Svarog's domains are fire, metals, life and protection.

>>46416

With a little elbow grease the Babylonians are able to string a solid bow, the first of its kind developed by the Babylonians. This will give the Babylonians some ranged capability in addition to their already strong melee capacity. Gain the Very Basic Babylonian Bows tech and raise troop strength to +13 for every 100 troops. In addition you may split your troops as you please between spearmen and archers, should you choose to do so.

>realized I forgot to put Alu-Marduk on the map

The Babylonians are quick to respond to the threat of rebellion and establish solid defenses around Alu-Marduk, building palisades made from the cypress trees of Alu-Tiamatu complimented by stacked stone barricades to reinforce them. This will definitely help keep the city safer against possible attack. The citizens feel safer as well. Gain the Palisade (Alu-Marduk) building and 1 happiness.

Babylon rejoices as its newest warriors are brought into the fold - 200 more troops! They are given their weapons and sent to the training fields, and soon they stand ready to face the rebel scum.

>While the ruler of Babylon rests in deep slumber, he is visited by the booming voice of Marduk, who imparts a message for him. "Ah, most excellent, you have done much to advance your understanding of the world. Now, however, I have a new task for you. Your empire is indeed large and prosperous, but without adequate protection it may very well fall apart. Let me see your dedication to the defense of your realm and I shall indeed lend some of my strength to you to aid you in this regard." Soon after the booming voice fades, the king of Babylon wakes and meets with his advisors to plan his next course of action given the recent turn of events. (Extra favor condition changed to doing actions which increase your military strength, such as researching equipment, new training methods, etc.)

>Along the southern borders near Alu-Sarrum, a new group of intrepid explorers have been sighted, hailing from a civilization to the south! Calling themselves the Kingdom of the Nile, rumors have spread far and wide about them, especially regarding the giant pyramid they have constructed, truly a wonder of the world. They also excel at mapmaking, shipbuilding and cartography, and have mighty quadriremes comparable to the Trojans but with unique features and designs that give them more strength and versatility. Will this new civilization be friend or foe? That is ultimately up to you to decide.

1. News of strange men from the northern seas is disturbing, to say the least, especially to know that they loathe the gods. Those islands off of the coast are barren, aye, but better to have them empty than inhabited by godless sea-faring barbarians! If we are to have any interaction with them, though, we first need to build seaworthy boats with which to get to them.

Begin figuring out how to construct boats that can withstand relatively short sea journeys.

2. Brigid has made her proclamations heard! We will improve our men– and we have just the thing. Until now we have been arming our troops with particularly thick hides and furs. This ends today; we'll start figuring out a way to shod them in iron to protect them on the battlefield. Perhaps through small metal plates, or studs, or even chains…

Begin developing metal armor. +[Basic Forges], +[Basic Swords], +[Ironworking]

They are known to the neighboring tribes for their black pottery, strange animal statues watching over their cattle fields, and necropolis. Since no god has approached them yet they believe in spirits of nature, animals, and people and seek to deal with or control them into doing what they desire.

Free: The Elsässer were not prepared to live their life in the depths of the mountains just yet and while creating food from the rocks infertile grounds was certainly a feat befitting of a god, what good would life in the Darkness do the Elsässer if it made them blind? Friedrich would bow down and pray to the stone that would give his people the power to see in the Darkness, for its aplications were numerous and value beneath the mountain home immesurable. (Spend 5 Favor)

1. Friedrich had hopefully brought great blessings upon his people. Now the time had come to venture even deeper into the black depths. No longer would his people have to fear coal dust catching fire. Who knew what lay hidden deep within the mountain's womb? Once he was a boy who feared the Dark, he grew up to be a man who embraced it. Never had he thought that he would learn to love it. Without a torch he made his descent. Perhaps he could find something unique, a gift, befitting of Mantus, to prove the people's unending gratitude, whose heavy hand protected them from harm.

2. Samson was more than pleased with the progress made. Now the time had come for the military of Elsass to grow, not only in skill and mental fortitude, but in numbers as well. He would leave the officers to train the men, the strategy they were pursuing had been discussed and made abundently clear. Surely soon more would join the ranks, taking up arms to protect the Free City.

3. Julius had spent too much time thinking about new spear designs. He had to do something else for a change, get his mind off things and a revelation would come to him easily. He had heard that some other scholars had attempted to introduce a system of writing which had failed miserably, clearly they had lacked his visionary spirit. He would offer a helping hand with the issue and return to improving the Elsass' spears some other time.

>Fluff: During the great cataclysm the native peoples of americas were quickly thrown into chaos and danger. great upheavals and migrations took place all over the continent as they tried to appease whatever god had gained control for the moment or were trying to flee the conflict outright. While the land slowly became the land of the dead many had begun to grow even more desperate and set out on the seas with primitive ships and with little navigation knowledge. Almost all died, but for the few that made it they reached greenland with those from Scandinavia who had already settled accepted them. Eventually even if they were small in number own their own, the sheer amount of different native groups reaching the land meant that they outnumbered the Scandinavians. Today, the current nation of skræl has homogenized ethnically, culturally, and linguistically with the original settlers forming core of all these things.

Actions:

1. Ataninnuaq has represented everything good about the Skraeli people. He has dedicated his life to finding new advancements to improve and preserve life in this world. He has also shown that man indeed can create small miracles on their own and any curses and despair brought upon by the gods can be countered through human ingenuity and hope. His notes have grown massive over the years and even in his last few days he has still been adding to them with new discoveries and theories that will keep any aspiring healers busy learning and testing them for lifetimes. What has been most interesting however is his final observations on the human body in regards to their functions. With this knowledge he has developed amazing procedures which allow him to work inside the body itself and directly remove corrupted flesh which plagues victims and even helps those suffering from severe frostbite.

Trade:

>>46507

1. It is to be expected that they feel threatened by our presence, as it seems that the have accepted the gods' lies. No matter, we shall give them a chance for a peaceful transition of territory in exchange for their knowledge and certain guarantees.

>For the 3 islands that you have claimed I will make this offer. I will give 1 island for each tech given to me. I also need a guarantee that any inhabitants will not be persecuted for their unbelief and that we may have docking rights so that we may continue our trade expedition. Acts of aggression will forfeit any claims or rights to the islands as they were handed over in good faith and such behavior goes against the spirit of this deal. In continuation of this good faith you may choose any tech that you wish to share.

>>46348

2. Tabukvik has been exploring around this massive island and had managed to find another people that have settled on the coast in the mainland. While they have also accepted the gods' lies and have shown arrogance they still maintain civility, but what is most impressive is their people's great education and amazing engineering. It would be beneficial to maintain good relations with this nation

>As both have great knowledge in our respective fields it will take awhile to share all that we know. To start with this cultural exchange I will share my knowledge of medicine and in return you can share your bows that demonstrate the transmission of force in a practical way.

"Nae, let us give ye a better offer. Those islands ye claim? They belong to us. They are ours. Ye have until we reach them tae leave them, exactly as ye found them, an' then we can sit down around the fire and talk of trade. If we arrive on those islands and yer still on them, we'll kill you all and build ourselves a right pretty shrine outta all the bones.

"We do so wish this would blow over peacefully. But we will nae accept yer ridiculous terms, nor will we have ye on those islands. Leave them or die."

Francisians see themselves as the only civilized people. They have strict moral codes and obey the laws of chivalry to the best of their ability. The laws of chivalry are the only thing holding them back in war as they often find that the most effective warfare is "too barbaric" however they make up for this with their graceful fighting techniques and advanced siege weapons. Within the cities of Francisia, crimes are taken much more seriously than in barbaric lands with an almost draconian rule. Those that commit crimes meet with the business end of the executioner’s axe. Even being impolite to another Francisian can have a man put in the pillory for a few hours. To pass the time Francisians train in their preferred profession. Fighters learn better fighting techniques, chefs learn more extravagant recipes, and philosophers debate and discuss. Thanks to the evidence of there being gods, the philosophy of many Francisians is one of honour through war as even the divine war with each other.

>Fluff:

At the tip of Africa closest to the pennisulaic boot that was home to the Mediterrans and Roman empires, grew a hamlet. It was small, so very small against the harsh unforgiving sands of the great desert to the south. Yet it grew, it's people fished bounteous sea, and it's farmers oh so very carefully cultivated crops from the sparse patches of arable farmland.

Over time more and more people came to this oasis againt the desert, not born on the tears of the Nile but by hard, patient diligent working of the land and sea. hard diligent work that expanded the small village into a city. Acity that stood aginst the harsh heat, shifting sands and burning wind of the desert, and found it's secret places, the oases filled with water and hills and valley filled with stone and ore.

Thus Qarthak grew into being. A city that was seemingly at odds with itself. The people and rulers of the city swath themselves in color rarely found in other nations, their tents bright and colorful and the people cheerful. however the permanent buildings are all drab, utilitarian and squat. The city's inner clash even extends to the minds and hearts of people, who can be kind and generous to the much less fortunate, but are miserly and judgmental of those who they deem brought it on themselves. Thus the city of Colored Cloth and Brown Stone exists.

The Rulers of Qarthak consider the offer of both deities. They consider them long and hard. Finally they come to a decision. One of them speaks, "Both your offers are generous, incredibly so, butyou both want us to shift the city away from it's roots. Qarthak is not just a city of color and splendor, it is a city of stone and utility. Qarthak is not just a wall of strong stone and swarthy stalwart men, it is also a city of art and luxury.

>Fluff:

It all started with one farmer (whose name translates to "By the grace of God, a Dragon") who would challenge travelers to fight. Nothing fancy, just a fistfight or grapple, typically with some stakes, like a day of work on the farm vs a bottle of kvass. Some stuck around and made their farms nearby, and the tradition of fighting was started. Fighting was entertainment, dispute resolution, bonding and even a method of courtship. A system of honor developed, and a physically strong and socially-cohesive group grew, whose life purpose was to win the next fight. Crime was almost non-existent, for self-defense was almost assumed, and, when threatened from the outside, they made up for their lack of strategy, and sometimes even weapons by the incredible physical fitness and hand-to-hand combat capabilities of these people.

Muzhchina Voinovna, a great-granddaughter of that first pugilist-farmer, and one of the city's most elite fighters, has recently earned the title of Nayagina, roughly "Princess", a title which places upon her the responsibility of taming the unruly city, and turning their vigor to productive ends. And there is much to be done! There is a great wide world outside the city walls, with many places to explore, sights to see, and faces to punch!

Muzhchina wakes from a deep dream, with visions of things not of this world still flashing before our eyes. Finding some of the oldest members of the assembly already discussing this or that, she strides to the rostrum with fire in her eyes.

"Brothers! I have dreamed again, and the gods seek an answer. If we do not choose one of them, then our people will be severely punished. We have–"

With this she broke off, and noticed a pile of cabbages near the rostrum.

"Brother Voroshilov, what are those?"

"Nayagina, they are cabbages, from the nearby tribe of Yeltsinski, they have agreed to–"

He is interrupted by her deftly kicking up on of the cabbages up, then pivoting, and obliterating it with a single punch.

"Cabbages?!? We send them Kvass and meat, and they offer only cabbages?!!"

The hall is stunned into silence.

Nope, this won't do…the armor produced is either too heavy, too thin, too big, too small or just plain messed up and unwearable. Brigid probably wouldn't approve of this…the smiths figure it would just be best to melt the armor back down again and go back to square one.

Plenty of fine Aiseirigh potatoes are planted in Leicester and come up with large and healthy, as expected from Aiseirigh's most prized crop. This'll definitely put food on the table. Raise food production to 17,750 and gain the Potato Farm (Leicester) building. Also change Aiseirigh Potatoes to Aiseirigh Potatoes+.

Wallachia's brightest scholars put their heads together and, with careful calculation, come up with a good set of methods to build better, sturdier and more aesthetically pleasing buildings. This'll definitely help with building projects. Gain the Very Basic Architecture tech.

The Wallachians know the importance of architecture, but they also know that they must work on the practical elements as well in order to keep their buildings standing. Thus they devote themselves to studying engineering and building their intimate knowledge of mathematics to design better, stronger structures. In addition to building this may have other applications as well. Gain the Very Basic Engineering tech.

The call is put out for brave men to join the Wallachian army and fight for their homeland, and 200 brave souls respond. The men are put through the ropes and trained well, and there appear to be many fine officer candidates from among the bunch. It'll be up to Vlad III and the other military leaders to choose who to appoint. Gain 200 troops.

Unfortunately the toll system fails as people find it far easier to just travel around the toll points. Perhaps if Wallachia had a system of roads to allow for easier travel, the toll stations would have more of an effect as people would be more inclined to traverse the much safer roads and paths.

The only "scrolls" the Babylonians can find are a bunch of tablets that appear to be mostly chronicles of the history of Babylon, the religious tenets of Marduk, a couple of cooking recipes, and so on. Nothing of use when building bows. However, just when the chronicler of Babylon is about to give up and call it a day, he trips over a tablet. Upon picking it up to put it back where it belongs, he discovers that the tablet is actually a list created by the inventor of the Babylonian bow on ways to improve his bows! The scholars and bowyers get to work on this immediately, and before long the bows of Babylon are shooting farther and faster. The people thank Marduk for his providence in this hour of need. Change Very Basic Babylonian Bows to Basic Babylonian Bows and increase troop strength to +14 to combat rolls for every 100 troops.

Though the troop turnout isn't quite as great as the king of Babylon would like, 100 soldiers manage to show up ready to fight the rebel scum. Gain 100 troops.

The king of Mari apologizes but it seems that the troops of Mari are being troubled by bandits to their south and for the time being they need their troops to defend their city. Perhaps if you ask again in the future they may have some to spare, however.

>>46512

The scouts scour the land and come across a peculiar outcrop of white, striated stone in the hills surrounding Vindras. Beautiful and sturdy, the scouts take a few samples back home, and the builders immediately order miners to gather more. The builders think that the stone, which they call "marble", can have a variety of uses, from being a durable and beautiful building material to a nice sculptable material for statues and pillars. The people delight at the prospect of having their homes, palaces and temples built with such a marvelous material, and demand for the product skyrockets. Gain the Marble luxury resource and 1 happiness.

The wheat farms are planted and before long little green sprouts appear throughout the field which give way to glorious golden stalks. Change the Wheat resource to Wheat++ and change food production to 13,500.

Some of the carpenters and scholars tinker around with the idea of architecture, but upon inspection the head scholar scowls and throws out the drawings after figuring out that if these buildings were actually built they'd fall apart like a house of cards. The head scholar demands that the rest of the scholars start from scratch and produce more practical designs and methods.

>>46536

The Pharaoh, dismayed at the slow progress of Benben's growth, has his followers go out and promote the outpost, speaking of the excellent location on the sea and the great opportunities to be had there. The people do indeed listen, and before long there is a large migration to Benben. The people begin building houses and the outpost quickly grows into a full-sized city to rival Giza or Qoseir. Change Benben (Outpost) to Benben (City) and change population growth to 4%.

The scholars put their heads together and gather some of the plants found around the Nile known for their healing properties. They make a mixture and indeed it is able to cure many diseases. The health of the people will be greatly improved by this invention. Gain the Very Basic Medicine tech and change population growth to 4.25%.

Unfortunately aside from the plants used in the existing medicine the people of the Nile find no other plants that might be beneficial, but perhaps they just didn't look hard enough. The people of the Nile resolve to try again later.

The people of the Nile do, however, manage to complete a fitting hospital in Giza to treat the sick and heal the wounded. The hospital has plenty of rooms to treat patients in. It also sports a stockpile of medicine for the sick, bandages for the injured and plenty of clean water from the flowing Nile for all its patients. This will surely help improve the mortality rate amongst the citizens of the Nile. Gain the Hospital (Giza) building and change population growth to 4.5%.

>While negotiating with the Babylonians, the traders of the Nile find some unusual people, who don't seem to be Babylonian, instead following their own culture. Upon further investigation it is revealed that they are from a kingdom to the north called Troya which is a proud seafaring nation with great fleets and massive harbors. They follow Poseidon, god of the sea and animals, and are extremely skilled at mounted combat. What will you new make of this new civilization?

Friedrich takes the chosen stone in hand and feels a sharp headache, worse than he ever felt before, and his legs give way as he passes out. However, when he awakes, he finds that he can see in the once dark cave as if it were fully illuminated! Though this "darkvision" appears much duller and grayer than vision in normal light, he can still make out colors and the like. Friedrich, excited to tell everyone of his new gift, runs back to Elsass to find that the people are walking around the normally dark night with no problems whatsoever. It seems the gift had spread to them too. The only real side-effect of the gift of darkvision is that those with the gift now have their eyes tinted a dark red, a sign of Mantus's blessing. Gain the Darkvision spell (helps with actions in the dark and gives a combat advantage against enemies without darkvision in low light conditions) and lose 5 favor.

Friedrich and the miners venture deep within the mountainous depths, deeper than they had ever gone before thanks to their new darkvision. They find a vein of shining grey metal, with beauty almost rivaling that of the gold in the Elsass mines, and just like the gold it is quite rare and valuable. The miners decide to call this new metal "silver" and surmise that it will greatly add to the wealth of Elsass. Gain the Silver luxury resource and gain 1 happiness. Gain 1 favor as well.

Though it's less than Samson anticipated he still is able to recruit 150 able-bodied men, who are quickly trained and turned into proper soldiers. Gain 150 troops.

Julius thinks long and hard through the night and comes up with a suitable alphabet, good for communicating ideas in writing and easy enough for even the simplest of peasants to pick up and master with a little effort. The other scholars agree that it's a great idea and they spread the knowledge throughout the land. Now the people of Elsass will have a much easier time sharing ideas and thoughts. Gain the Elsässer Alphabet tech.

>>46545

The Romans trek southward, claiming many new lands along the western coast of Italia for the Empire. The Roman lands now almost stretch to the end of the peninsula, and many excellent spots for settling new cities are found in the new lands. It's definitely something the Senate can mull over later. Gain 6 territories.

With a little elbow grease the ruins of the bandit camp are converted into a small outpost with great potential. The lands here are remarkably fertile and there is a large mountain that, although not the largest in Roman lands, still towers over the city. It is said that smoke emanates from the volcano from time to time, worrying the locals, but some merely theorize that the mountain may be a giant forge for a god or the sight of a great fire that burns fiercely every now and then. Still, fearmongering aside the mountain has little impact on daily life in Naples. Add Naples (Outpost) to your Outposts/Towns/Cities tab and change population growth to 2%.

The eastward expansion doesn't go quite as well as the rush southward, but the surveyors and explorers are still able to claim a fair bit of territory in the name of Roma. For the first time the territory of Rome extends to the eastern sea on the other side of the peninsula, and indeed the Romans could build a city here to ensure reliable access to both seas. Gain 4 territories.

>>46550

The threat from Jiaolong the Leviathan terrifies the citizens of Xinyang and the rest of the Han, but the Han Council is lost for a solution, as sending a fleet of ships to deal with the beast will be dangerous indeed, especially when the Han can't even make any that float for more than a few minutes. However, that's when Dao Nao-Do and Tuo Rong-pu, two of the best architects the Han has to offer, propose a great solution - to build a big, beautiful wall in order to keep sea monsters and any other undesirables out and away from Xinyang and even the other coastal cities as well, because nobody builds walls better than they do. The two get the council's approval and begin working immediately, shattering any expectations set for them when they not only build a stretch of a giant wall bigger than any wall the Han had previously built but also a great fortress to crown the Xinyang section of the Great Wall which towers over the city, keeping it safe from harm. Xinyang is now much more secure, and the citizens thank the twin architects and the council for it. Add The Great Wall of the Han (Xinyang Section) and Legendary Fortress (Xinyang) (can be renamed to whatever you wish, just put (legendary) at the end of it if you do). Also gain 3 happiness.

The Scholar Caste thinks long and hard on ways to improve agriculture when one scholar comes to them with a lumpy brown tuber. Calling it the potato, he claims that these miraculous plants can be sown earlier, and that when the Han system of crop rotation is taken into account it means that the Han's growing season is greatly extended. The Han resolve to plant these new crops, and indeed next year's harvest is much more fruitful with the addition of the potato. Change Basic Farming to Improved Farming, gain the potatoes food resource and raise food production to 21,500. Gain 1 favor as well.

The Scholar Caste returns to their chambers to mull over the issue of removing impurities from water by boiling when they suddenly receive another vision from Xi Wangmu. Following this method, they are able to invent a unique and efficient method of water boiling that purifies water from even the murkiest of pools. The Han rejoice and count it as among the great achievements of their civilization. Gain the Very Basic Sanitization (Han Water Purification) tech and increase population growth to 4.75%.

Unfortunately their efforts into concocting a mixture to kill pests and bugs that assault their crops turns out to be a failure. While they are successful in coming up with something, they find that it's toxic to not only bugs but the plant as well, and the plant they were testing the mixture on becomes a grey, withered husk overnight. The Han decide to dispose of the potions rather than risk using it on the field and destroying the whole harvest.

>>46557

Ataninnuaq, old and frail, leaves his last legacy, a detailed collection of surgical insight and techniques, to the healers, who put them to use and find that they make the art of surgery far easier than before. The Skraeli rejoice and hold a celebration for all of Ataninnuaq's hard work. Change Very Basic Surgery to Basic Surgery and change base population growth to 5.75%.

Trade action failed, other party rejected the offer

>Though his achievements are great and many, and though he had been elevated to a status of near-godhood to the Skraeli people, Ataninnuaq was still human, and all humans must one day die. It is a sad day all across Skrael as people come to Inuksuk to mourn one of their greatest heroes. Remove Ataninnuaq from your hero pantheon.

>>46560

The smiths are able to take their coal and apply it to the iron to turn it into a new substance that's far harder and tougher than steel while at the same time being much shinier and more rust resistant as well. Unfortunately making the steel takes a great deal of time and effort, limiting its practical uses to small things like weapons and the occasional suit of armor. Still, the new "steel" as it has come to be known as will prove to be an invaluable asset to the Rus. Gain the Rus Steel resource, gain the Steelworking tech and increase troop strength to +15 for every 100 troops. Also gain 1 favor.

Though the horse-pulled bellows idea doesn't exactly work out because the bellows need to be pushed up and down, the Rus do figure out an easier method for constructing bellows and apply it to their forge designs, making them much better. Gain the Basic Forges tech and 1 favor.

The Rus attempt to dig down into the earth to create a proper mine to get metals, but one night the earth shakes and the entire entrance to the mine collapses. Fortunately no one was hurt as there was no one digging in there at the time but the miners will have to work long and hard to dig it out again.

As hard as they try, no iron is found by the miners in Lipin Bor. Some think that it's still out there, but it merely has yet to be found, while others are skeptical of that assumption.

>Add your god's domains to your favor tab, they're fire, metals, life and protection

>>46566

The miners and prospectors look for metals within the earth but instead find a vein of beautiful, striated white rock, sturdy yet easily carvable as well. This will make many beautiful buildings, pillars, statues, and more, and the people cannot wait to see their cities decked out with marble buildings, marble shrines and marble palaces. Gain the Marble luxury resource and gain 1 happiness.

Though it is a rare product indeed because the honey needed to make it is hard to get because of the stinging bees that come with it, the finest brewers of Aetheria are able to take what honey they can get and make a delicious beverage out of it which they call mead. Though it's considered a delicacy and mostly limited to nobility and those who can afford it or stumble across a good beehive, it brings a smile to the face of all those who drink it. Change Very Basic Brewing (Beer) to Basic Brewing (Beer, mead) and gain 1 happiness.

The Aetherians do manage to improve their armor, and using the new methods they are able to make the armor lighter and patch up a lot of the holes that it couldn't cover before. Change Very Basic Armor to Basic Armor.

The men hear stirrings in their dreams and whispers calling out to them - some think that it is the "steel" calling out to them, while others think it may be some kind of god or other powerful being. Still others hypothesize that it must be some kind of god of steel. Who knows what it may be?

>>46568

The Francisians, in an effort to please their goddess, begin building the first ships of their navy, and are finally able to put all their materials and theories to use. Gain 15 Francisian galleys (+7 to naval combat rolls for every 5 ships)

Using their mechanisms the Francisians are able to scrap together the first ballista designs. While simple in design, they're still able to fire straight and hard, and are able to fling both stone and arrow with great force. These will definitely be useful in knocking down enemy walls, should the Francisians choose to build any. Gain the Very Basic Siege Weapons (Ballistae) tech.

The Francisians also develop a substance that, when wet, hardens into a usable material. While it is too brittle to be used in construction on its own, it makes an excellent mortar to hold bricks together and make them stronger. Gain the Improved Masonry (cement mortar) tech.

>>46569

A simple foundry is constructed within the walls of Qarthak, putting the Qarthakians' knowledge of forge building to use to smith more things faster. This will help with future smithing endeavors. Gain the Forge (Qarthak) building.

Construction on the shipyard, however, is halted as some fishermen have reported seeing a gigantic sea monster in the area. No one's sure if the rumors are true or not but it's enough to scare the men away from the shoreline for the time being.

The rubies are indeed beautiful but a cut ruby is far more valuable than an uncut one. So, the rulers of Qarthak order the building of a jeweler to cut them and make trinkets and artwork from them. Gain the Jeweler's Workshop (Qarthak) building and gain 1 happiness.

Astarte scoffs and disappears into the mist as Baal Haamon steps forward to address the rulers. "Ah, you have chosen well, power such as that only corrupts and destroys. As your guardian I will offer my guidance to you but first I must see how you treat your people. Happy empires are strong empires, and to keep your people happy is important indeed.

Provide your people with amusement, order, religion, valuable resources and other things which make people happy, and your empire will grow and prosper. In addition, a temple or effigy to me would be useful, to give the people a place to seek guidance and offer their prayers. Do these things for me and you shall receive my blessing, and with it will come power and prosperity." (Extra favor condition: Complete actions which advance your mastery of plants and vegetation)

>>46572

As Mikula shrugs and disappears Perun steps forward and speaks to the Nayagina. "Good choice, I had a feeling you'd choose wisely. Now, as I said I do not give my power willingly to the weak and complacent but instead to the strong who are ready and able to handle it. Now, let me see your strength, and your willingness to get stronger. Develop new training regimens, forge mighty weapons, develop new combat techniques and strengthen your brave warriors. You can also build me a fitting shrine or temple if you like, so that others may come for inspiration, spiritual guidance and to offer prayers. So then, let me see you strive for improvement, and in return I shall help you take that power to new heights." (Extra favor condition: Perform actions that increase troop strength)

The builders begin clearing the land and build a nice and spacious training ground with plenty of beds for the soldiers to sleep and plenty of room for the soldiers to train as well. This will help Muzhchina train more fighters faster. Gain the Barracks (Borbograd City) and gain 1 favor.

The recruitment of strong men to fight Yeltsinski for offending the whole of Borbograd with cabbages is slow and steady. The new barracks definitely helps with this, but the numbers aren't quite as high as Muzhchina would like. Still, not a bad start for a new army. Gain 200 Borbograd brawlers (+8 to combat rolls for every 100 troops).

Nation Name: Wallachia

Color: Dark-Red/ Burgundy

Fluff: Wallachia could not stand without war. She wars for independence from distant and foolish sovereignty. She wars to be free from foreign overlord. Her heroes are soaked in the cruelties they performed on their enemies like the hands of a maddened butcher. The greatest battle to be fought was the Night Attack at Târgovişte where the greatest hero of Wallachia, Vlad III The Impaler, slew thousands and burned the dreams of would-be conquerors. Having outmaneuvered or outlasted those that would shackle her, Wallachia now stands free and royal. Memory of success turns into history and patriotism. Defenders of Wallachia ever hope to emulate the heroes of old.To become a figure of inspiration to their countrymen and Void Bringer incarnate to invaders.

Wallachia's successes endure thanks to the centrality of militarism in all aspects of Wallachian life and the incentivisation of war in elite competition. Access to the black sea and its prominent trade centers means merchant culture has every opportunity to enrich our people alongside military expansionism. While invaders and their peoples are treated to either public execution or slavery. The lands brought to heel by the Wallachian elite are subject to considerably lenient policies by comparison. Rebellions are best dealt with by public execution of the leadership and their families. The surest rise to prominence for the common man is through war, trade and providence in support of Wallachia.

As always those unfortunates who have grown too old for the Orphanage can find a place in the military where they can receive further education, coin and prestige in reward for service.

4 Research Forges. With our economy improved and our wisdom increased we can tackle the problem of increasing forge production. We can build forges in more measured and certain terms, lay out plans to provide the forge with more sturdy foundations to accommodate larger shops and expanded forges. Even the tools they use can be improved with a superior version of the bellows they already employ. Our scholars will find a way.

>Nation name: skræl

>Color: Green

>Fluff: During the great cataclysm the native peoples of americas were quickly thrown into chaos and danger. great upheavals and migrations took place all over the continent as they tried to appease whatever god had gained control for the moment or were trying to flee the conflict outright. While the land slowly became the land of the dead many had begun to grow even more desperate and set out on the seas with primitive ships and with little navigation knowledge. Almost all died, but for the few that made it they reached greenland with those from Scandinavia who had already settled accepted them. Eventually even if they were small in number own their own, the sheer amount of different native groups reaching the land meant that they outnumbered the Scandinavians. Today, the current nation of skræl has homogenized ethnically, culturally, and linguistically with the original settlers forming core of all these things.

Actions:

1. It has brought the skraeli much laughter in seeing what the Aiseirigh consider ships rather than the floating planks of wood that they are, but that does not stop them from making their own improvements. Seeing as they now have to prepare for actual war instead of just exploration and fishing it has caused some interesting divergences from normal skraeli design.

Ecstatic, Tabukvik, Fine Fishing, Intermediate Shipbuilding, Very Basic Carpentry

2. While the Aiseirigh were immediately hostile as expected that does not mean others are as barbaric as them. Tabukvik sets out to explore south of Aiseirigh to see if there are any actual civilizations besides their own.

Ecstatic, Tabukvik, Intermediate Shipbuilding

3. As the Aiseirigh think that can contend with the seas we must rise up and show them how deluded they are. Our people are tied to the sea in a way that they could never be, we have faced its monsters and emerged victorious. Their only monster is the vomit that spews from their gut from being unable to handle the waves. While they run in clothes we have clad ourselves in armored scales. They cannot hope to challenge us in our element.

>Nation name: Qarthak

>Color: Pink

>Fluff:

At the tip of Africa closest to the pennisulaic boot that was home to the Mediterrans and Roman empires, grew a hamlet. It was small, so very small against the harsh unforgiving sands of the great desert to the south. Yet it grew, it's people fished bounteous sea, and it's farmers oh so very carefully cultivated crops from the sparse patches of arable farmland.

Over time more and more people came to this oasis againt the desert, not born on the tears of the Nile but by hard, patient diligent working of the land and sea. hard diligent work that expanded the small village into a city. Acity that stood aginst the harsh heat, shifting sands and burning wind of the desert, and found it's secret places, the oases filled with water and hills and valley filled with stone and ore.

Thus Qarthak grew into being. A city that was seemingly at odds with itself. The people and rulers of the city swath themselves in color rarely found in other nations, their tents bright and colorful and the people cheerful. however the permanent buildings are all drab, utilitarian and squat. The city's inner clash even extends to the minds and hearts of people, who can be kind and generous to the much less fortunate, but are miserly and judgmental of those who they deem brought it on themselves. Thus the city of Colored Cloth and Brown Stone exists.

>Nation name:

Francisia

>Color:

Blue

>Fluff:

Francisians see themselves as the only civilized people. They have strict moral codes and obey the laws of chivalry to the best of their ability. The laws of chivalry are the only thing holding them back in war as they often find that the most effective warfare is "too barbaric" however they make up for this with their graceful fighting techniques and advanced siege weapons. Within the cities of Francisia, crimes are taken much more seriously than in barbaric lands with an almost draconian rule. Those that commit crimes meet with the business end of the executioner’s axe. Even being impolite to another Francisian can have a man put in the pillory for a few hours. To pass the time Francisians train in their preferred profession. Fighters learn better fighting techniques, chefs learn more extravagant recipes, and philosophers debate and discuss. Thanks to the evidence of there being gods, the philosophy of many Francisians is one of honour through war as even the divine war with each other.

>Nation name:

Borbograd

>Color:

Red

>Fluff:

It all started with one farmer (whose name translates to "By the grace of God, a Dragon") who would challenge travelers to fight. Nothing fancy, just a fistfight or grapple, typically with some stakes, like a day of work on the farm vs a bottle of kvass. Some stuck around and made their farms nearby, and the tradition of fighting was started. Fighting was entertainment, dispute resolution, bonding and even a method of courtship. A system of honor developed, and a physically strong and socially-cohesive group grew, whose life purpose was to win the next fight. Crime was almost non-existent, for self-defense was almost assumed, and, when threatened from the outside, they made up for their lack of strategy, and sometimes even weapons by the incredible physical fitness and hand-to-hand combat capabilities of these people.

Muzhchina Voinovna, a great-granddaughter of that first pugilist-farmer, and one of the city's most elite fighters, has recently earned the title of Nayagina, roughly "Princess", a title which places upon her the responsibility of taming the unruly city, and turning their vigor to productive ends. And there is much to be done! There is a great wide world outside the city walls, with many places to explore, sights to see, and faces to punch!
