Unfortunately not even the best training can replace raw talent, and when the Wallachian officers train the troops a bit too aggressively things get heated, arguments start and unrest builds. Lose 3 happiness.

However plenty of exploration is done as the people are eager to explore the unknown to the west. Gain 5 territories.

Plenty of new siege engines are developed, including a new variant of the catapult that resembles a giant bow but turned on its side. Rocks and giant arrows alike can be loaded into this new machine, and the new siege engine, called the Ballista, will no doubt play a key role in Wallachian sieges. Change Siege Weapons III to Siege Weapons IV (Siege ladders, battering rams, catapults, ballistas) and change troop strength to +17 for every 100 troops.

The builders and architects of the Hanging Gardens finally reach a compromise when one architect is struck by a vision in his dreams of a great and mighty structure. He lays out his plans and the people get fervently to work, and with his advice they get much done, not only laying the foundations but laying the mighty frameworks as well! All craftsmanship is of great quality and the builders certainly have a lot to be proud of, but their job isn’t done yet…gain the Hanging Gardens of Yeshua Foundations and Framework (Curtea de Danube) building.

As the Wallachians go about their business they are interrupted by reports of strange explorers from the northlands! These explorers explain that they come from a land called Rus’ia, a cold but industrious land in the north known for its many great architectural achievements as well as its highly advanced metalworking and scholarly traditions. They place a strong emphasis on having a strong and comprehensive administration system as well as having a strong and centralized religion revolving around their god, Svarog. This has led the people to place a great deal of trust in their leaders, the Tsar and his family, minus a few pockets of rebel scum that is. You have met the Rus, what will you make of your new northerly neighbor?

>>50147

200 of Aiseirigh’s finest join the Aiseirigh offensive, eager to spill blood in retaliation for the enslavement and murder of their kin. Gain 200 troops.

>>50148

The propaganda does indeed seem convincing enough, while there is still a fringe element that’s still on the fence about the whole thing there’s now a strong core of supporters for the young chieftain. Future propaganda attempts by the followers of Gorgothas will now be much less effective. Gain the Propaganda I tech.

However it doesn’t stop the followers of Gorgothas’s next dirty trick, which is bribing young and impressionable soldiers of Cogotas with money and promises of wealth. While the propaganda helps mitigate some of the losses many of the new recruits have left to go join Gorgothas. The recruiters decide to cut their losses and try again when the enemy agents aren’t on the prowl. Lose 180 population.

Despite this bad turn of events the Cogotans do succeed on something very noteworthy, the invention of the first sets of the mighty Cogotan Horse Armor. This armor, made of the finest materials and high levels of craftsmanship, becomes a key staple amongst the Cogotan horsemen and an important cultural symbol. Now their horses will be much more deadly in combat. Gain the Horse Equipment I (Cogotan horse armor) tech and change military strength to +13 to combat rolls for every 100 troops. Also gain 1 favor.

>>50151

The Trojans carefully venture down the fissure, which extends roughly a few hundred feet, and as they descend they find a most curious discovery - pockets of a jet black rock. Upon further investigation the people find that this rock, which they call “coal”, can be used as an excellent fuel to heat fires and forges! What will the Trojans make of this curious substance? Gain the Coal resource.

With a little elbow grease the people of Percote begin cleaning up the wreckage of the lumbermill and start repairing it and rebuilding it into something even better than before! Now with the latest in Trojan technology as well as the finest in Trojan craftsmanship the once ordinary lumbermill has become a symbol of Percote and Trojan industry. Change Lumbermill (Damaged) to Trojan Lumbermill (Percote) and change wood to wood++. Gain 1 favor as well.

Though the people struggle to see how their flawless forges could be improved upon at first, one inventor comes up with a new design that makes the process much more efficient and less time consuming. The new forges quickly catch on and begin replacing the old, outdated forges. Change Forges II to Forges III.

The Trojans try to invent a new turning mechanism, but the device they come up with causes trouble once a famous Trojan dignitary tests the supposedly new, faster ships and has the ship that he’s on sink from the weight of the giant rudder. The noble survives but the Trojan shipbuilders will have to go back to the drawing board and work hard to shake off this fiasco. Lose 1 happiness.

>>50153

The Han set out for their more northerly reaches and find a good spot along the river to establish a border outpost. Named Wuhan, this fledgling outpost could be mighty indeed if the Han invest in it further and allow it to grow and prosper. Add Wuhan (Outpost) to you outposts/towns/cities list and change population growth to 7.25%.

The Han also expand further along the river from their new settlement, adding 6 more territories to their domain. Gain 6 territories and 1 favor.

Unfortunately the river barges end up meeting the same fate as last time, sinking to the bottom of the river. Once again no one is hurt but the Han are gonna have to go back and think hard about this one.

Lastly the Han improve their surveying once more as they improve on tried and true technology to allow them to explore even more with less time. Change Surveying II to Surveying III.

>>50154

>Quit with the meta, you never met the Ríocht éan Dubh nor do you know about Jaundices nat 1 in general. This is your ONLY warning.

The Skraeli set about to build more ships and succeed in building a bigger ship with five sails, the mighty quinquireme. This will help to keep the shores safe. Change Shipbuilding VI to Shipbuilding VII (Quinquiremes) and change ship strength to +12 for every 100 troops.

The Skraeli also build more ships as well. Gain 20 quinquiremes.

Action nullified because of metagaming as described above.

The trade is successful, and Gotland military trainers arrive on Skraeli shores to teach them the ways of the Gotland military. Gain Gotland Military Training I (T) and change troop strength to +9 to combat rolls for every 100 troops.

>>50155

The people of Ludzie Konia are angered by the Konian king’s insistence on having them give up their lifestyles to join the army. Despite all this the Konian recruiters may be able to try again with better luck once this irritating trend has passed. Lose 1 happiness.

However despite their failures to rouse the populace into wanting to enlist in the military the Konians are able to rouse themselves into working on metallurgy, coming up with many new interesting and effective theories of how metallurgy works and how to best apply their knowledge. This will definitely make working with metal much easier. Gain the Metallurgy I tech.

Lastly the Konians expand their holdings further and find many new potential spots for cities and villages to be founded upon. Gain 4 territories.

>>50157

>Czeched

The Moors begin expanding northwards along the coast, towards civilization and profits. Gain 4 territories.

The Moors also begin a training program to ensure that their sailors are skilled and able. The program is the first of its kind very effective to boot, becoming a staple for all Moorish sailors and a distinguished part of Moorish culture. It’ll definitely help with strengthening the navy as knowledge is indeed power. Gain the Moorish Naval Training I tech and increase ship strength to +11 for every 100 troops.

At the Moorish king’s command 20 more quadriremes are built and are ready to sail, ensuring the Moors’ might at sea remains strong and mighty indeed. Gain 20 quadriremes.

And on land, the Mamlukes’ might grows to match, as they grow to a mighty force of 450. Gain 150 troops.

Ashiakle laughs gleefully as her partner fades away with a disgruntled look on his face. “Ah, good, you have chosen wisely indeed, my children. Now, every journey begins with a single step. To start you off on your journey let’s see how well you can master my domain, the sea. Show me your people’s mastery over the waves and the depths and I will surely reward you.” Add Ashiakle (Water, wealth, plants, life) (Extra favor condition: Complete actions related to the sea) - 0 to your Divine Favor tab.

>>50160

Construction of the Kremlin goes slowly, as to be expected of such a mighty undertaking. Still, the people manage to put up the framework for the mighty building to be, an important step on the road to its completion. Change Kremlin Foundation to Kremlin Foundation and Framework (Moskva).

The Church of St. Basil shows progress too as its framework is erected almost simultaneously with the Kremlin framework. A definite sign of progress in the lands of the Rus. Change Church of St. Basil Foundation to Church of St. Basil Foundation and Framework (Moskva).

The people this time take up arms and revolt, angered to the point of rebellion at the Tsar’s insistence to have them build a school for the elite only when once it was a school for everyone. They rebel against what they call the “bourgeousie” and using seized Rus weapons they make for the outskirts of the Rus’ian tsardom to establish a base for their would-be rebellion. Lose 700 population and gain one angry NPC faction on your borders (normal difficulty - marked on map in grey). Though only of middling strength for now they’ll be trouble if you leave them alone.

The Rus explorers depart southwards on their grand journey, traveling over rolling plains and steep hills, through green forests and murky swamps and around blue lakes and over rushing rivers. The explorers make surprisingly good time as they go, and the lead explorer writes down the methods that they use which turn out to be most revolutionary indeed, changing the way that the Rus explore and becoming a definite asset in future explorations. Gain the Rus Navigation I tech.

The Rus’s journey concludes with the chance meeting of another nation, a nation of great architects and engineers that calls itself Wallachia. It was once was ruthless and strong but now has taken a more relaxed approach to things under the guidance of their new god Yeshua, though their military prowess hasn’t diminished despite this. What will the Rus make of this new discovery?

>>50161

This time the Lietuvans are much more successful in their expansion attempts, gaining many new territories in their push towards the fabled sea to the northwest. Gain 5 territories.

The Lietuvans also refine some of their brewing techniques to make a much less bitter and more robust beer which pleases the people greatly as they now have something tasty indeed to indulge in during their reveling. Change Brewing I (Beer) to Brewing II (Beer) and gain 1 happiness.

The Lietuvans build a great temple in honor of their new lord Cerklicing out of their finest wood and stone and decorated with silver and amber fineries. This will be sure to please Cerklicing and allow the people to have a place to worship and seek guidance as well. Gain the Temple of Cerklicing (Vilnius) building, gain 1 happiness and gain 1 favor.

The Lietuvans also begin recruiting the first soldiers of their military, as many of Lietuva’s finest join and are promptly trained and armed. Gain 200 Lietuvan axemen (+11 to combat rolls for every 100 troops).

Cerklicing smiles triumphantly as Gabija puffs smoke angrily as she fades out of the dreams of the Lietuvan leaders. “Great, a wise decision indeed. Now, let us get started on that first step, shall we? First, let’s see your skill with working the land and feeding your people. Show me what you can do and I will reward you with power and strength.” Add Cerklicing (Earth, plants, animals, protection) (Extra favor condition: Increase food production) to your divine favor tab.

>As the Lietuvans go about their day they see something odd - new faces from a strange new nation. It seems these men hail from the nation of Gotland, originally hailing from a tiny island in the Baltic Sea. They have a strong military and naval tradition and brag often about their various conquests, and their halls are rich with plunder from it. You have met the Gotlanders, what will you make of this new revelation?

>>50166

Using their grand new roads the Romans surge westwards along the coast claiming many new territories in the name of mighty Roma. Gain 9 territories.

>invalid use of favor

The Romans cheer as the mighty Colosseum is finally complete! The first games are held as a mighty Roman champion slays a mighty tiger and two prisoners fight viciously to the death as the Romans cheer loudly. The building itself is of fine quality, and the colosseum is a huge building complete with ornate bronze statues of Apollo and other related decorations to ensure an exquisite and grand venue for all sorts of activities. Change Colosseum Foundation, Framework and Walls to the Great Colosseum of Rome (Rome) and gain 3 happiness tokens, gain 3 favor and gain +5 to all rolls for 3 turns (this building also increases troop recruitment).

The growth of Florentia is slow and steady, and although it can’t quite be called a fully-fledged city yet it’s growing into a prosperous town nonetheless. Change Florentia to a town and change population growth to 4%.

>invalid use of favor

The Roman people aren’t really sure who the “Greeks” Marcus Vipsanius Agrippa mentions but they follow his ideas nonetheless and sure enough they come up with a new and improved siege engine capable of doing great damage to walls and buildings alike. Change Siege Weapons III to Siege Weapons IV (Covered battering ram, catapult, ballista) and change troop strength to +18 to combat rolls for every 100 troops and +12 to combat rolls for every 5 ships. Also gain 1 favor.

>>50167

Hearing of the coming struggle with the bandits 300 brave men join the Qarthakian military to fight back against their hated foe. Gain 300 troops and 1 favor.

Unfortunately the quest for better mounted combat training stalls after the best horse riders get in an argument over what truly good horse riding is, which leads to a series of rather bitter spats and pointless duels and races in which nothing gets done. Many people get upset over the ruckus which spreads throughout the city. Lose 1 happiness.

The ruckus from this is enough to stop any building of bull pens as the builders find themselves caught up in the argument as well. Perhaps when tensions have died down they’ll be able to try again.

Luckily the lack of progress with bulls and riding doesn’t extend to the shipbuilders who are able to berth 30 fine Qarthakian galleys to defend the shores from whatever lies out at sea that might lash out at them. Gain 30 galleys and 1 favor.

>>50168

The Nile farmers improve upon their methods further, this time finding a curious round magenta fruit with seemingly countless tiny seeds inside to grow. The fruit, called the pomegranate, proves to be a tasty and nutritious treat, an excellent addition to the Nile diet. Change Farming IV to Farming V, gain the pomegranates food resource, change food production to 24,500 and gain 1 favor.

The scouts of the Nile search and search with no avail, some are thinking that perhaps they should just be thankful for the fact that it can’t be found and that perhaps they should just let sleeping beasts lie…

However despite this the people are able to find a new animal as the people of the Nile are able to domesticate the humble desert ox, usable as both a decent beast of burden as well as a source of tasty meat. Change Animal Husbandry II to Animal Husbandry III, gain the oxen food resource, change food production to 26,000 and gain 1 favor.

The people are lost at how to try and prevent another disaster on the scale of the last attempt at improving the catapults, and with no sightings of the sphinx for many years the people are beginning to doubt the need to have them to begin with. Perhaps the pharaoh can rouse some inspiration into the people later, but for now it’ll have to wait.

>>50169

The people work hard on their new temple and turn it into a worthy place of worship indeed. Now people will have a place to worship as well as seek guidance, and no doubt the combined form of Venars will be pleased as well. Gain the Temple-Workshop of Venars (Laus) building, gain 1 happiness and gain 1 favor.

The combined form of Venus and Mars, known as Venars, beams brightly at their acceptance by the peoples of Amiculum Bellum. The form of Venus then speaks to the leaders. “Good, you will not regret your decision. Now, what shall I have you do first? For now I think I’ll have you build many beautiful buildings, perhaps as beautiful as even me. You can make them functional as well, to serve whatever purpose your little heart desires. Do this and not only will I reward you but you and your people will grow as a result. A good deal, no?” Add Venars (Fire, war, water, life) (Extra favor condition: Build buildings) to your divine favor tab.

>>50171

The Gotlanders begin their voracious expansion to claim the coasts of their lovely sea and in the process claim huge swaths of pristine coastline just waiting to be built upon. Gain 13 territories and 2 favor.

The Gotlanders also perfect their newest device to crack open gates which amounts to a giant suspended swinging log with the head of a ram on it. Once this wooden beast of war gets into position the force of its swinging can bust open even the most barricaded of gates if given enough time and effort. Though it still has problems, namely the need for strong arms to swing it and the fact that those people are for the most part exposed if left on their own, it is nonetheless an excellent start into the Gotlanders’ siege capabilities. Gain the Siege Weapons I (Battering Ram) tech, change troop strength to +21 to combat rolls for every 100 troops, change ship strength to +11 to combat rolls for every 100 troops and change Magni’s strength to +41 to combat rolls.

The trade is complete and the Skraeli medicine makers arrive to teach their secrets to the people much to the joy of the Gotlanders. Gain the Medicine of Ataninnuaq I (T) tech and change population growth to 5.25%.

>As the Gotlanders expand and explore they stumble across a curious people, the small nation of Lietuva. Living inland to the southeast of Gute lands these people pride themselves on their farming ability and military prowess alike and worship Cerklicing, a god of farming and the harvest as well as a strong protector god. What will you make of these new faces?

>>50172

The Mediterrans eventually cease their arguing, remembering why they had started this task to begin with. Their beloved goddess had bestowed upon them a mission, and they’d be damned if they failed her. The bowyers pour their heart into their bows and come up with a truly grand creation, an even more masterful bow than their previous design. Change Bows IV to Bows V (Superior Mediterran Bows), change troop strength to +21 to combat rolls for every 100 troops and +23 for every 100 elites and change ship strength to +17 for every 5 ships. Also gain 1 favor.

Likewise the Mediterrans do the same with their amphibious assault training, completely reforming the methods and turning them into an artform. Change Mediterran amphibious assault training III to Superior Mediterran amphibious training IV, change troop strength to +23 to combat rolls for every 100 troops and +25 for every 100 elites and change ship strength to +19 for every 5 ships. Also gain 1 favor.

However despite the successes of the bows and training the spear designs don’t go so swimmingly, as the bow arguments seem to have migrated over to the spear department. In a similar pattern no one can agree on anything and tensions rise before the smiths eventually decide to give it up for now. Lose 1 happiness.

The Mediterrans do however succeed on changing their training regimes for their land troops, and develop newer and quicker methods of getting men in fighting shape. Change Military Training I to Military Training II and change troop strength to +24 to combat rolls for every 100 troops and +26 to combat rolls for every 100 elites.

>>50174

>You are no longer in surplus

The people experiment with the mysterious material and find that by melting the material in a similar manner as melting the bronze and iron they smith they can blow it into various shapes. The glassblowers quickly become talented in their art making Prussian glass a valuable and rare commodity indeed and a symbol of Prussian influence. Gain the Prussian Glassmaking I tech, gain the Prussian Glass luxury resource (this is also an industrial resource) and gain 2 happiness.

Unfortunately a combination of logistical errors and poor planning delays the building of the new town greatly, and it will have to wait until these issues can be corrected.

Likewise the smiths seem to have hit a mental block on just how to forge the swords correctly as the king desires. They’ll have to think on it harder.

>>50180

This time Julius is successful with his medicine making, making a hearty poultice that’s a great improvement over past medicines in curing the various maladies that come around. It saves quite a few lives and is quite a find indeed. Change Medicine I to Medicine II and change population growth to 2.25%.

Indeed Samson does a good job once more in overseeing the construction of the new living quarters, after all were barracks not living quarters also? Many rooms are skillfully dug out leaving many chambers for Elsass families to grow and raise their children. Change Extra Housing to Improved Extra Housing (Elsass) and change population growth to 2.75%. Also gain 1 favor.

Unfortunately it has indeed been quite some time since High Priest Friedrich touched a forge, and all he can seem to churn out of it are flaky bits of rubbish metal. Perhaps this would be a task best left for Friedrich…

>>50183

The Francisian shipwrights work tirelessly to build a fleet worthy of the name Francisia and churn out 20 fine galleys to defend the shores against foreign threats. Gain 20 galleys.

The Francisians then claim several inland territories to the south of their most recent acquisitions. This gives the Francisians plenty of breathing room to potentially establish a new city or whatever else they may think of. Gain 3 territories.

The Francisian inventors come up with a sticky white substance that, when applied to canvas, makes it flat, rigid and much easier to paint on. This will make painting vibrant pictures, landscapes, portraits and so on much easier and much better. The gesso quickly becomes a part of Francisian culture as everyone is in a rush to try drawing on the new gesso canvases. Gain the Art Supplies I (Francisian Gesso) tech and gain 2 happiness.

>Your population is ecstatic! +5 to all rolls while happiness remains at 8 or above.

>>50184

The kingdom of Lakedaimon continues to expand, as the rest of the southern Peloponnesian Peninsula is claimed for the Spartiates, securing their domain over the region. Gain 5 territories.

The people also leave the comforts of Sparta to venture forth and settle in a new city. Though said city is but a fledgling outpost for now it has great potential to be the premier port city of Lakedaimon if the Spartiate leadership decides to invest in it. Add <insert name of outpost here> (Outpost) to your outposts/towns/cities tab and change (base) population growth to 2.5%.

Though before the people could get by with surface mining alone, the wise king of Lakedaimon knows that gold production will inevitably need to increase if the Spartiates and their followers are to grow truly wealthy. Thus they begin building a central gold mine to get the most out of their gold production and secure a reliable source of the stuff as well. Gain the Gold Mine (Sparta) building, change Gold to Gold+ and gain 1 happiness.

>confirmed this in discord even though it’s not in thread, for the sake of speed I’ll just run with that

The figure of Artemis scoffs arrogantly as she fades into the mists of the mind as Ares steps forward with a hearty chuckle. “Haha, you did well indeed by choosing me, and you won’t regret it. Now, we will start you on the journey to strength and power. First I would like to see your strength. Show me how strong your troops are, give them training, forge them powerful weapons, do whatever you have to do, and not only will you be able to stand strong on your own and have the strength to put down those who oppose you like the dogs they are but I shall lend you my strength as well.” Add Ares (Fire, war, strength, metal) (Extra favor condition: Increase troop strength) to your divine favor tab.

>>50186

>Update your population and population growth, you need to do it every turn. Check past updates as well

Seeing the need to act in order to secure the rumored Bosporus strait before it is claimed by anyone else the Elysians spring into action and expand the borders of Elysia to get closer to their goal, gaining many territories full of good land on the way. Gain 5 territories.

The people are unsure of what “cash” means but a new outpost is established in the newly acquired territories in order to secure the land and give the people a new place to live. Though small and humble for now if the Elysian leader invests in it properly it could become a thriving hub of trade indeed. Add <insert name of outpost here> to your outposts/towns/cities tab and change (base) population growth to 2.5%.

No men are trained as the people insist that the Elysian military is large enough as is and they shouldn’t have to send any more of their sons to be away from their families and possibly die if a war ever breaks out. Lose 1 happiness.

>You are no longer in surplus

Hades shrugs indifferently as Athena takes to the fore and begins speaking in a pleased, mirthful voice. “Excellent, you won’t go wrong with me. Now, many people will tell you to build your armies and do this and that to make them strong but an army marches on its stomach and if you cannot feed your troops you won’t be able to recruit many at all. So my first task for you is to improve your ability to grow and gather food and feed your people, be it fishing, farming, ranching and so on. Do this and I will lend you my power as well.” Add Athena (Air, protection, light, life) (Extra favor condition: Improve food production) to your divine favor tab.

Though the Riocht Ean Dubh put up a good fight they didn’t expect Aiseirigh to attack so swiftly or so fiercely. Indeed luck and skill both favor the Aiseirigh as they sweep through the meager galleys that had claimed their kinsmen and landed on the isle. The navy of Aiseirigh now patrols the harbor of Beall Feirst, effectively blockading the foul bandits from making a counterstrike…or escaping by sea. Aiseirigh land forces are able to find a weak point in the wall and breach it rather quickly, resulting in massive casualties for the defending forces. Now the last of the Riocht Ean Dubh has retreated to their fortress hold, where they plan their last ditch offensive….the battle has most assuredly gone in Aiseirigh’s favor, but what could the crows be plotting? Lose 248 troops and 1 regular ship..

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.

4. Invade the Aiserigh. The time has come to secure our independence. Diplomatic talks have failed and they have refused to compromise on the matter. For generations they have remained obstinate have decided to make themselves a perpetual threat to our people and likely others as well (no, not the fucking irish but all the other people I met). We shall start by landing in the north near OUR islands and start claiming territory from there. After depositing our troops the ships shall spread out and start blockading any settlements that they can find. Our diplomat has also returned and says that the Francian fleet shall support us in our endeavor. While we are sad that they wont be supporting us on land for the moment, their ships shall greatly help in the blockade to come. We shall meet in the west where the leviathan does not prowl and assign them from there.

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.

Now with the rise of a new warlord they seek to extend their dominance to those around them as well.

>>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 against 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. A city that stood against 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.

While Samson had traditionally mostly managed affairs of defense and military his responsibilities had more and more encroached on the civilian business. He would do his best to find someone else who would take care of agricultural matters, meanwhile seeking to expand the local food production.

+ Increase Food Output

2. The men required better arms. They always did. Julius' knew this, he knew this so well in fact that he had begun working on yet another improvement for Elsässer Spears without having even been asked for them.

3. Friedrich had spent so much time talking to Mantus he had neglected his own trade. A smith he was and a smith's work he would do, improving the forges and practicing the working of metal Friedrich would further improve the means of Elsass to work metal in any way he could see fit.

War. This one word defined the city states of Hellas. Eternally divided and feuding, the accomplishments of any one city would prove fruitless as they were wiped away as boots trod on scorched earth. This existence was a cruel one for the Greeks, yet it did instill in them a natural strength, a strength forged only by a history of conflict. Eventually, a lone man, named Alexios, rose from the ashes, leading an ever increasing band of soldiers in the aspiration to unify Hellas.

The smiths also seek to improve their forges and succeed in perfecting a new design that streamlines the smithing process and makes it more efficient, which will inevitably help future efforts to smith things. Change Forges I to Forges II.

>>50227

First roll is for combat vs. the Riocht ean Dubh.

The Aiseirigh smiths work double time to get the men adequately prepared and despite the building pressure and limited time constraints they are able to produce sturdy metal shields to protect the troops from enemy blows and arrows in a way that armor can’t. The shields will definitely be put to the test soon but they will definitely be of assistance. Change troop strength to +15 to combat rolls for every 100 troops.

Combat vs. Skrael is at end of update

>>50228

Combat vs. Aiseirigh is at end of update

The Francisians succeed in developing their karves, which surpass their expectations greatly. The karves are a ship unique to the Francisians, built well to command control over the relatively shallow channel that borders Francisian lands. Change Shipbuilding II to Shipbuilding III (Francisian karves) and change ship strength to +12 to combat rolls for every 5 ships.

The Francisians also succeed in their expansion efforts, as the sailors depart and everyone else prepares for war the Fracisian explorers seek to strengthen the homeland against attacks, pushing out to help protect Francisian supply lines from being broken in the event of an attack. Gain 4 territories and 1 favor.

Though it is a bit more rudimentary than the Francisians’ initial imagination the Gastraphetes still no doubt functions quite well, forming the most basic element of Francisian crossbow technology. The bows definitely pack a punch but they are also slow to reload as a result, but nonetheless should be effective enough. Gain the Crossbows I (Gastraphetes) tech and change troop strength to +15 to combat rolls for every 100 troops. Change ship strength to +13 to combat rolls for every 5 ships.

>>50230

Thinking the good king must’ve indulged himself a bit too much at the last feast and had a bit of a night terror the people shrug off the king’s warning. Surely the current troops combined with the sturdy walls will be strong enough to stop anyone foolish enough to invade. The king can always try again, maybe in the future there will be more souls willing to defend mighty Prussia.

The construction of catapult emplacements along the walls of Konigsberg do much to aid this sense of security as the new fortifications are tested and successful, knocking out the enemy strawmen with ease from their easily defensible vantage points. Gain the Catapult Emplacements (Konigsberg) building. Also gain 1 favor.

The Prussians are able to construct much more than simple pigsties, they construct large, expansive and well-crafted barns with the finest in Prussian handiwork along with fine wooden fences and fine troughs as well. This palace for the pigs will house many and allow the pigs to grow fat and happy indeed, all the better for the hungry Prussians. Gain the Prussian Pig Farms building, change food production to 16,500 and change pigs to pigs++. Also gain 1 favor.

>>50232

The Skraeli are able to scout out the forces of Aiseirigh and the spy reports back that although the forces of Aiseirigh are smaller than their own right now the Aiseirigh main force is just offshore, though the Skraeli are unable to find out where, and about to complete their war of revenge against enemy bandits which enslaved and murdered many of their people. This main land defense force is far greater and better equipped than the Skraeli forces and fighting them would likely end in disaster.

No one signs up to earn glory and loot, as most of the young men around have been instead recruited into the navy. Maybe the Skraeli can try again later.

The Skraeli do, however, manage to acquire more ships, and 25 more ships are added to the Skraeli navy. Gain 25 ships.

Battle results at end of turn.

>>50234

The Romans are unable to complete any ships as the lumber shipments have been delayed. The Romans will instead have to wait for the delays to be resolved and for needed supplies to arrive.

The Romans get to thinking about improving their military training to match the might of their great structuring systems as they know that it’s well-disciplined troops that truly win battles. What the Romans come up with is a unique style of training and drilling that makes excellent use of their military structure to churn out strong and disciplined soldiers to serve Roma faithfully and skillfully. With this the Roman military will be mighty indeed. Change Military Training I to Roman Military Training II and change troop strength to +20 to combat rolls for every 100 troops

The Romans improve on their tried and true yet woefully antiquated shield designs, reforging them in glorious Roman iron instead of plain old bronze, and in a new design too. The soldiers are itching to test out how the new shields will work in an actual battle but most agree that they prefer the new shields. Change Shields I to Shields II (Iron Roman Scutums) and change troop strength to +21 to combat rolls for every 100 troops.

>Using 1 happiness token since you can only use 1 per action

Lastly the Romans work to improve their writing systems, to change it along with the evolution of their culture. They come up with a suitable system, a simpler alphabet much easier and more concise. Change Villanovan High Alphabet and Villanovan Low Alphabet to Improved Roman High and Low Alphabet and gain 1 happiness token.

>Scouts venturing through Mediterran lands report seeing strange ships with strange people as well. The strange people say they hail from the lands of Qarthak, a land in the desert continent across the sea on the other side of the Mediterran isles. The Qarthakians are known as the “City of Stone and Cloth”, having highly advanced dyemaking capabilities which allow them to make valuable and vibrant colored cloths to adorn their city. However they are no slouches militarily either, as they are extremely skilled riders of the mighty bull, a gift from their god Baal Haamon. What will you make of these strange new people?

>>50237

The Gotlanders put out the call to arms and the people answer..well, some of them at least. The rest are busy preparing for war as the soldiers depart. Gain 200 troops.

Unfortunately this doesn’t leave much time for any battering rams to be built, time is of the essence and the Gotlanders must strike while the iron is hot.

Combat results at end of turn

>>50239

The Wallachians muster the troops and before long 200 more troops stand ready to fight against evildoers and enemies of Wallachia and the faith. Gain 200 troops.

The Wallachians also seek to replicate their success with the First Church of Yeshua and succeed, renovating the building and once again adding their distinctive style to the building. The added space and pleasant learning environment will undoubtedly help with teaching students the ways of the world. Change College of Curtea de Danube to Wallachian Remodeled College of Curtea de Danube and gain 1 favor.

The Hanging Gardens are also making progress, as the mighty walls of the garden are finally coming together. It won’t be long now until the Hanging Gardens reach their completion. Change Hanging Gardens of Yeshua Foundation and Framework to Hanging Gardens of Yeshua Foundation, Framework and Walls.

>>50240

Indeed the people work hard on getting the temple repaired and before long it is looking as grand and eloquent as it always has. Religious services resume as they did before the great quake and the people are indeed happy for it. Remove the Damaged tag from the Temple of Poseidon and regain the lost 1 happiness and 1 favor as well.

As the people dig in the fissure to start on the mine they are met with a vision of Poseidon, who tells them that the soils still need time to settle and digging any tunnels would lead to the deaths of many as the still unstable ground will cave in on them. The people thank Poseidon for the advice and decide to try again when the soils are more settled and the people are more prepared. Lose 3 favor.

Fortunately the people are able to take the coal they have to make many innovations into their metallurgy, integrating the coal into their metalworking techniques. This will likely lead to many new advances and will definitely make smithing efforts easier. Change Metallurgy I to Metallurgy II.

The leadership and organizers get together to develop the first of the Trojan festivals, this time being a festival of excess where all may forget about their troubles and eat, drink and be merry to their hearts’ content. Gain the Festivals I tech and gain 1 happiness.

>>50241

The drums of war are sounded and the most able-bodied of the Lietuvans rush to the barracks for training, determined to die fighting rather than bend over and be slaughtered. 450 strong troops are raised for the effort and equipped, standing ready to defend the city. Gain 450 troops (can be divided up as you see fit)

>>50245

The people are able to complete the orange farms in Wuhan which will provide much needed food security and industry to the fledgling outpost. Gain the Orange Farms (Wuhan) building, change oranges+++ to oranges++++ and change food production to 38,250.

Unfortunately none of the other projects go through due to rampant logistical problems which delay shipments combined with inclement weather which delays construction further. They’ll have to try again later.

>>50247

To answer the calling of their new goddess Ashiakle the Moors start using simple wooden poles with a string and metal hook to catch fish from their boats on the high seas. This new “fishing” quickly becomes a popular pastime amongst the Moors as well as a critical food industry. Gain the Fishing I tech, gain the fish food resource and change food production to 18,500 and gain 1 favor.

The Moors expand their harbor further, allowing for more docks, more shipbuilding facilities and more trade flow from the once humble harbor. Change Harbor to Improved Harbor (Al-Tarima) and gain 1 favor.

The Moors also expand northwards, fully securing the Strait, at least on their side of the sea. Gain 4 territories.

>Ironworking is a 1 level tech

Lastly the Moors expand upon their metalworking knowledge, recording their findings in pictures to preserve their best techniques that they uncover in order to bolster their skill in metallurgy and metalcrafting. Gain the Metallurgy I tech.

>>50251

Finally aid comes to the Cogotasi! Inspired by the propaganda many fine men come to the Warchief’s Hold ready to be molded into a strong and powerful fighting force. Gain 250 troops.

The blacksmiths also succeed in their task, making lightweight yet durable armor made of banded leather incorporated with iron in critical points. This will definitely help with the war effort and ensure that more men make it back after the battle’s over. Change Armor I to Armor II (Iron armor, banded leather armor) and change troop strength to +14 to combat rolls for every 100 troops. Also gain 1 favor.

To compliment their new armor the blacksmiths make long and slim blades built for mounted combatants to use, allowing them to fight better and have a backup option in case their primary weapons are disarmed. Gain the Swords I tech, change troop strength to +15 to combat rolls for every 100 troops and gain 1 favor.

>Scouts report that the enemy camps seem to be increasing in activity. An attack looks imminent, the Cogotasi should prepare accordingly!

>>50253

Second roll is for combat vs. the Rus rebels

The Tsar puts out the call to arms and the people respond! Angered about rebel filth the loyalist families send many of their sons to join the glorious Rus’ian military. Gain 200 troops.

The loyalist smiths also put plenty of hard work into the designing of their mighty war wagons, and soon a suitable design is developed and sent to the front to aid the Rus’ian troops! Gain the Chariots I tech (War Wagons) and change troop strength to +18 to combat rolls for every 100 troops.

Unfortunately the Rus are too preoccupied with the war effort to make any significant progress into the Kremlin’s construction. Perhaps they can try again later though…

>>50255

Once again there are no suitable men to be found for the Konian army, it seems that all who showed up are either too old, too out of shape or otherwise completely unfit for service. Perhaps if they try one more time some more worthy souls might drift into the barracks…

However the Konians do manage to press eastwards, gaining a few more territories and growing the Konian lands. Gain 4 territories.

The Konians also establish their first outpost as many flock to escape the overcrowding of Jelenia Gora and establish new lives on the Konian frontier. Though small and fledgling, with proper investment this tiny outpost may grow into something great indeed. Add <insert outpost name here> (Outpost) to your Outposts/Towns/Cities tab and change (base) population growth to 2.5%.

>>50257

The Qarthakians hear of stories of great walled cities, blocking out even the most hardened warriors by their intimidating height and sturdy construction. The Qarthakians therefore think hard on a good way to counter these things, the most notable solution being a large suspended log that, when swung with enough force, can break even the most barricaded gates. This design, called a “battering ram”, is effective but simple, and the battering ram would have to be well-protected to avoid it being overwhelmed, not to mention the open spots it leaves for archers and the like. Gain the Siege Weapons I (Battering Rams) tech and change troop strength to +14 for every 100 troops and +10 for every 5 ships.

The Qarthakians also improve their bull riding further, being able to ride the once vicious and stubborn bulls with almost as much ease as their god does. They refine their riding and mounted combat techniques further and develop even greater methods of mounted combat to bolster the Qarthakian bullriders ever further. Change Qarthakian Mounted Combat I to Superior Qarthakian Mounted Combat II (Bullriding) and change troop strength to +16 for every 100 troops.

3rd combat roll is for your combat vs the desert bandits

>While venturing through Mediterran lands the Qarthakians stumble upon a peculiar new type of person, not Mediterran or Qarthakian. These people introduce themselves as the mighty Romans, who follow the mighty sun god Apollo and pride themselves on their highly advanced military structure, disciplined forces, great architectural wonders and mighty armies and navies. This group is certainly a venerable and strong civilization indeed, but what will you make of them? You have met the Romans.

>>50261

The Spartiates cheer as the port of Voies is opened to all. With its many docks and shipbuilding facilities it’ll definitely be a boon to Lakedaimon’s naval forces should the Spartiates decide to build any. Gain the Harbor (Voies) building.

The Spartiates also recruit the first of their armies, although not exactly a vast amount it is a good and healthy beginning for the mighty armies of Lakedaimon. Gain 200 hoplites.

Unfortunately the blacksmithing doesn’t go as well, the smiths have an accident that results in a large fire which burns down a sizable portion of Sparta before eventually being put out. Lose 280 population.

>You are no longer in surplus

>The King of Lakedaimon receives a report of strange people, not Spartiates nor Periokoi nor Helots. They hail from a kingdom known as Elysia which lies directly to the north of Lakedaimon, and follow the lead of a bright young leader known as Alexios. They also worship the goddess Athena and although they seem to be primarily known as a farming civilization their military skill is not to be underestimated either. What will you make of this new discovery?

>>50264

Samson manages to find a skillful farmer who comes to him preaching about a new great crop he calls the “radish”. These small, red vegetables are nutritious indeed and add a tang to any meal, not to mention being easy to grow. Seeing his skill, Samson promotes the bright-eyed young man, named Otto, to take care of Elsass’s agricultural affairs. Change Farming II to Farming III, gain the Radishes food resource and change food production to 17,000.

Julius the Inventor once again succeeds in using his knowledge to benefit Elsasser society, this time making new and improved spears for the military. Samson and the troops praise the new invention and the men look forward to using the new and improved spears. Change Spears II to Spears III and change military strength to +18 to combat rolls for every 100 troops.

Friedrich thinks about his art deeply, he had so long neglected it that he had forgotten who he was before he met Mantus. He concentrates and meditates to Mantus for guidance, consulting Julius and Samson for advice as well, and tries his hand at smithing once more. Friedrich is astonished by the results this time, as the iron he was smithing comes out much more pure and much stronger than it once was, as if it were an entirely different metal! Taking this “steel” Friedrich meets his peers triumphantly, showing off the new metal that would turn Elsasser society on its head. Indeed Mantus would be proud of this feat. Gain the Steelworking I tech, add crude steel to your industrial resources tab and change troop strength to +20 to combat rolls for every 100 troops.

>>50270

The Kingdom of the Nile once again expands its borders and Cleopatra delights as the rest of the eastern shoreline of the Red Sea is claimed for the Nile. The explorers also work to consolidate some of the unclaimed territories in the Nile’s core lands under Nile rule as well. Gain 6 territories.

The festival is a grand success, with the people remembering fondly the achievements and experiences of Kanefer as well as ushering in the lovely Cleopatra as the new pharaoh as well. The people celebrate and party celebrate through the night and a good time is had by all, brightening the people’s spirits greatly. Gain 1 happiness.

The mapmakers get to work with their new maps and come up with many efficient methods to improve on the already great maps, resulting in a clearer and more defined map of the known world of the Kingdom of the Nile. These maps will definitely help with future expansion. Change Nile Cartography II to Nile Cartography III.

>>50282

Stormy weather makes construction of the barracks in Aureumterra an impossibility for now, the people stay home and divert their efforts to the barracks of Tabulaterra instead.

With this extra effort the barracks of Tabulaterra is completed ahead of schedule, and the building stands ready for the first recruits to be trained therein. This will definitely help with recruitment efforts. Gain the Barracks (Tabulaterra) building.

The Mediterrans once again make great innovations into their signature style of amphibious combat, and by the time they are done the Mediterran soldiers’ prowess with their style is legendary, becoming a force to be truly reckoned with on the open seas and on land alike. Change Superior Mediterran Amphibious Training IV to Legendary Mediterran Amphibious Training V, change troop strength to +26 to combat rolls for every 100 troops, +28 to combat rolls for every 100 elite troops and +21 to combat rolls for every 5 ships.

Unfortunately despite their growing need for food the Mediterrans are unable to complete any farms as bad weather has delayed their construction. They’ll have to try again later.

>>50291

The king sends men to investigate this new trend of finding new ways of getting tasty fish from the rivers and oceans and succeed greatly in their endeavors, using strips of cow leather to make sturdy nets great for hauling in many, many fish. This art of net fishing becomes a popular hobby of the Elysians and a symbol of Elysia’s prowess on the seas. Gain the Fishing I (Elysian Nets) tech, gain the Fish+ resource and change food production to 17,000. Gain 1 favor as well.

The Elysians also improve their farming abilities, finding a tasty edible root to grow that’s hardy and nutritious as well. They call this new food the “potato” and it becomes an excellent addition to the Elysian diet. Change Farming IV to Farming V, gain the potatoes food resource and change food production to 18,000. Gain 1 favor as well.

Lastly the Elysians expand southwards, and although the people are unsure of where this “Athens” is many territories are claimed regardless. Gain 4 territories.

>As the Elysians venture south they encounter another people inhabiting the southern Peloponnesian Peninsula, a more warlike people with a strict caste system. They worship Ares, god of war, and have a strong military training system and military tradition. What will you make of this new discovery?

SEA COMBAT:

SKRAEL ROLL 93 + 312 + 110 +10 = 525

AISEIRIGH ROLL: 84 + 195 + 5 x 1.1 = 312

The Aiseirigh fleet, caught by surprise at the sudden Skraeli attack combined with some strange ships never seen before, is utterly overwhelmed and the Skraeli make their landing at Loch Iarainn in their attempt to capture the city…a few ships manage to escape the chaos but the bulk of the Aiseirigh fleet is devastated by the combined assault. However, a Skraeli ship claims to have seen an ominous yet strangely familiar shadow lurking under the depths of the sea, and a retreating Aiseirigh ship also sees this. What could this mean?

Aiseirigh loses all ships.

Skrael and Francisia lose no ships.

LAND COMBAT:

SKRAEL ROLL: 93 + 45 + 10 = 148

AISEIRIGH ROLL: 84 + 30 + 5 x 1.1 = 130

The Skraeli charge on shore and are met by the meager Aiseirigh defenders, who put up a bitter fight, refusing to be overwhelmed. Though many of the Aiseirigh defenders are slain they hold the line nonetheless, not allowing the Skraeli to take the city. The Skraeli think something’s wrong, didn’t the scout reports say there were more troops somewhere out there?

Skrael loses 137 troops, Aiseirigh loses 100 troops.

GOTLAND VS LIETUVA COMBAT

GOTLAND ROLL: 24 + 147 + 41 + 5 = 217

LIETUVA ROLL: 73 + 66 + 5 x 1.3 = 187

The Gotlanders, looking for easy prey, swoop down en masse upon the Lietuvans, who they had assumed as simple defenseless farming folk, but unbeknownst to the Gotlanders the Lietuvans were ready for them, ready to repel the invaders from their lands or die trying. The Lietuvans put up a good fight but are overwhelmed by the sheer might of the mighty demigod Magni who blasts the Lietuvans with bolts of raw lightning. Still the Lietuvans stand, battered and bruised and down many men but still standing, and the siege continues.

Gotland loses 196 troops.

RIOCHT EAN DUB ROLL: 64 + 96 x 1.2 = 192

The Aiseirigh fire a powerful volley of fire arrows and charge the makeshift fortress as it burns to the ground, killing the defenders to the man and ending the threat of the Riocht ean Dubh once and for all. The Aiseirigh cheer but their celebration is cut short as they are handed an urgent missive that Aiseirigh is under attack!

RUS VS THE RUS’IAN REBEL ARMY

RUS ROLL: 10 + 51 + 10 = 71

REBEL ROLL: 81 + 75 = 156

A crushing defeat! The rebels were expecting the Tsar to take action and set up an ambush, as the much more numerous enemy cossacks surround the Tsar’s forces and whittle them down. Thanks to a noble sacrifice the Tsarist forces are able to escape but only just, and with very heavy losses and low morale to boot.

QARTHAK VS DESERT BANDITS

QARTHAK ROLL: 22 + 112 + 5 = 139

BANDITS ROLL: 20 + 65 = 85

The Qarthakians arrive to meet the bandits and succeed on catching them in an open field, and although the bandits initially put up more of a fight their disorganized nature leaves them vulnerable to the Qarthakians’ devastating bull charges. Many bandits are run down and although the Qarthakians too take a few losses it’s not much compared to the devastation inflicted upon the bandits. The bandits cowardly retreat, presumably to regroup, though being bandits they may have something else planned as well. What will the Qarthakians do?

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: 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.

Chronicles of Tabukvik

1. Make bows. The Aiseirigh have made good use of their bows both on sea and land. Even our Francisian allies have added their own mechanical spin on the idea. If we wish to avoid being left behind then we must create our own design.

2. Improve boats. If we wish to defeat this monster than our ships must be the best they possibly can be.

3. Recruit more militia. While we have neutered their capacity to attack us we still need to keep our borders safe and be ready to answer any calls to war from our allies.

Ecstatic, Superior Skraeli Warrior's Lodge

4. Attack the sea monster and drive it to the Aiseirigh's harbor. We have been given a great opportunity. The chronicles have gone into great detail about the power and size of the leviathan. About how it can shoot great bursts of water that can cut through any hull at long distances. With The Aiseirigh's navy gone we can freely deal with this monstrosity without their interference, however its proximity to their lands has allowed us to attempt a more cunning plan. Through proper maneuvering, wounds, and bait, we could drive it closer to their coast where they would be in range of its powerful water cannon. Making this beast just as much as their problem as it is ours. Such a thing would also give us an opening to retrieving our men still on Aiseirigh lands as well.

The fledling nation may be weak now, but in time they will surely grow.

>Population:

10,000

(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. Having your hunger level dip too low will cause people to start dying. Having a food production of 1.5 x your current population will cause you to enter SURPLUS)

>Territory:

1 (The amount of land you control)

>Outposts/towns/cities:

<Dublin> (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 total coup and loss of control over your civilization, effectively meaning game over for you.)

>>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 against 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. A city that stood against 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.

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.

2. According to the ships we sent to aid the Skraeli, our enemy is just north of us, on a large island across the channel. We must set up precautions for if they want to attack our homeland. Expand into the south coast of this island.

3. Our ships fought gallantly and they provide our people peace of mind, knowing that powerful vessels protect our shores. It is time we increased the number of our ships. If we want to make our mark on this world, we must have the most formidable navy. Build karves

The Skraeli having just withdrawn from the north know that with their numbers an attack would be ill advised, However having received word that the Francisians have actually settled the south of the island. They request that they be allowed to settle their army there to help defend while they set up a permanent foothold.

>>50330

To our esteemed ally, and greatest friend, The Skraeli

We would like to formally announce our expansion into the island in which the Aiseirigh inhabit the north of. We believe it in both of our best interests if you were to show your generosity and provide us with the means to defend our new territory despite it not being specifically mentioned in the terms of our alliance. If you do so, and we march to war together, we are willing to split the land conquered evenly and fairly. We would also like to add an amendment into our alliance, stating that while the alliance is still unbroken, both nations may station their troops and ships in each others towns and territories. With your help, we believe that this world will one day be magnificent.

May Melusine's waves guide your fleet, your friend always, the Francisian High Council

>>50331

The Skraeli agree to these terms with but a single amendment. While we are happy to share our ports with you, our homeland is a much more solitary place than what you are used to. We believe that for you to send your armies there would be redundant and unnecessary for all involved and that it would be much more efficient if we limited this mutual protection's scope. We recommend that it be limited starting from the greater isles to the mainland itself.

>>50332

To our esteemed ally, and greatest friend, The Skraeli,

We are sorry to hear that your people prefer solitude, however, we understand and respect that. The amendments made to our alliance shall be as follows:

"On the Island which shall here on out be known as the Skrael-Franc Island in honour of our alliance, all territories held by either the Skraeli or the Francisians shall be free to use by both nations, for the purpose of stationing or moving troops.

All territories on the Skrael-Franc island that is under attack must be defended by all troops stationed within that territory, despite whether they are Skraeli or Francisian."

May Melusine's storms sink your enemies ships, your friend always, the Francisian High Council

"Hail Alexios. We are the representants of the Spartiates, ruling class of the people of the Peloponnese. We wish to offer our greetings in the name of King Eurypon XXIII of Lakedaimon. We wish to ensure peace between our peoples and to meet our good neighbours."

>>50345

"It is fortunate that I do not have any interest in the Peloponnese, and should you confine your rule to those people, then we should maintain peace in both our interests."

>>50348

Should you let us take over the other islands of the Aegean we should be happy to maintain friendship, and even an alliance.

>>50340

The Prussian envoy to Ludzie Konia, recognizing our strong bond between each other's nations, suggests a blood pact be made between these two nation's leaders - that our people shall be brothers in the other, that one's fight is in other's to fight too, sworn on the name of their respective god and on the blood of their dynasty. If the fertile plains of this Baltic countryside must fall to invaders, then we shall all perish for its sake.

>>50352

The people of the Konia accept, our nations would do well in glorious brotherhood.

>>50351

We have no interest in islands so long as we get the area stipulated in the deal. We would like to simply sign a non-agression pact and a trading agreement and will wait to see how the future develops before signing an alliance.

A ship approaches one of your leaving military vessels close to the port of Rome. Bearing a white flag and signaling. That the crew is carrying minimal weapons.They seem to wish to talk.

>>50320

A ship approaches one of your trade vessels as it passes through the Mediterranean. Bearing a white flag and signaling that the crew has been disarmed and mostly sent below decks. They seem to wish to talk.

Ave terra pedes. Nos quaerere commercia et si plus in posterum. Fortunate senex lingua quoque loquimur. Et aliquamdiu cum respiceremus adtenti ad me certus est vigilantes vos have nobis. Culturas nostras similes constituit regem inter et populum multum profuturas.

Hail land legs. We seek trade and possibly more in the future. Fortunately we speak the old tongue as well. We have watched you for some time as I am sure you have been watching us. Our cultures are similar and the king has decided there is much to gain from a relationship between our people.

>>50365

The diplomats eyes are cold and it's clear he regards you as….somewhat lesser but its also clear he is making every effort to be diplomatic and friendly

>>50367

The Romans respond in the same manner, after all, what culture, what nation, could consider itself worthy of anything if it didn't place itself and its people above all others.

"We have seen your islands, and your fleet. Quite impressive we must say. It is true that we have much to gain by cooperation, at least for now. Your king shall be pleased. I shall send word to the senate and a delegation shall arrive in your court to discuss terms within the month."

>>50368

The diplomat once again lets out a smile. He bows and says he looks forward to the meeting. He then promptly returns to his own ship and readies to sail back home and inform the holy court.

>>50364

The Qarthakian trade vessel, every bit the inferior of this much older and more aquatically inclined naval state approaches Cautiously. The colorless flag was perhaps ironically made from Qarthakian Cotton, and the fact they used a blank slate to try and wave down the dye trader was not a surprise.

Once within range where one would not have to shout so loudly as to be uncomfortable the Trader, who had some basic knowledge of those he shares trade lanes with shouted, "Ave, et quoque occurrit? Quid mihi et tibi est color, et oppilatæ sine vexillum Medditerans? Non hat opus est?"

(Hail and well met! Why have you barred a flag without color to us Medditerans? Do you need aid?)

>>50372

The diplomat smiles and yells back that a white flag is the symbol of peace and talk in latin culture due to the cleanliness of unsoiled white cotton.

My people have entered a new era recently and wish to enter into talks of trade and possibly more in the future. The king has declared in a months time (next turn) he will be hosting a conference in the holy palace in Mediterra. He wishes to invite you to join as one of the 2 foreign powers.

1. Friedrich's invention had shook society. The era of iron had begun to come to an end and steel was now on the rise. Friedrich would continue to pursue this technology, for it was most promising and would certainly enhance the lives of his people greatly.

2. A new metal, more powerful than iron. What a time to be alive. Samson would seek out and train more men to join the Elsässer Army. They soon would bear weapons crafted from this newly shaped metal.

3. Julius' looked upon the various plans strewn out before him. Drawings of pillars and tunnels. Various measurements and assumptions of metals. He was looking at a map he had been drawing on for quite some time now. Friedrich had asked him to draw up a city beneath the mountain within its black womb. They would begin construction soon. The greatest work the Elsässer had yet to accomplish.

They will not rest until the invaders are driven from their shores and they’ll be needing the potatoes from the farm to keep them well-fed to keep doing so. Gain the Potato Farms (Uaiagh a Chnoc), increase food production to 22,500 and change Potatoes to Potatoes+.

The Aiseirigh trainers observe the recent battles with the Skraeli and Riocht ean Dubh, making note of the Aiseirigh soldiers’ strengths and where they fall short, and with this design a superior training method befitting of mighty Aiseirigh to train superior troops quickly and effectively to combat any foe. Change Military Training III to Aiseirigh Military Training IV and change troop strength to +17 to combat rolls for every 100 troops.

The smiths also work in high gear, churning out a new and improved shield design improving on the flaws of the previous model and improving the soldiers’ ability to defend themselves greatly. Change Shields I to Shields II and change troop strength to +18 to combat rolls for every 100 troops.

What will you make of these new people?

Change Wallachian Shields II to Wallachian Shields III and change troop strength to +18 to combat rolls for every 100 troops.

The Wallachians also increase the capabilities of their siege weapons, allowing their catapults and ballistas to shoot farther and faster, which will doubtlessly be of great help in coming battles. Now all the Wallachians need to do are to get some actual, physical siege engines..change Siege Weapons IV to Siege Engines V and change troop strength to +19 to combat rolls for every 100 troops.

Unfortunately no expansion is done as the people are too busy working on other projects at home…

The blacksmiths of the Nile get to work on orders from the queen, hoping to build a spear as beautiful and sharp as her. They succeed greatly creating a great and mighty spear even better than the previous design, as it skewers its enemies with ease and has durable construction allowing it to take a great deal of abuse before breaking. Change Nile Spears II to Superior Nile Spears III and change troop strength to +13 to combat rolls for every 100 troops.

The people of the Nile uncover a new technique as they find that when the Nile children make mud sculptures with the silty clay along the Nile the Sun bakes it into a solid shape after a while. The Nile wisemen refine this technique, using a device similar to a forge called a “kiln” to bake clay into various shapes, including pots and other containers to store food in, among other things. Keeping the food out of the reach of bugs, the sun and moisture proves to be a great boon in preventing spoilage, and the wisemen are praised for the discovery. Gain the Pottery I tech and increase food production to 28,000. Also gain 1 favor.

Alas, as the people spread out to find animals they find one they never wanted to see again…it appears Kanefer’s paranoia wasn’t unfounded at all, as the mighty Sphinx strikes again, and to make matters worse it is not alone! It has found worshippers, people who have placated the beast through human sacrifice who have led the sphinx to its next meal - the citizens of the Nile! It wreaks a large trail of destruction in Rhakotis and Giza before the beast and its followers are forced to retreat by the valiant defenders of the Nile, but luckily this time some brave and valiant scouts have managed to conquer their fear and follow the beast, discovering its resting spot in the city of the Cult of the Sphinx to the north in between the lands of the Nile and the lands of Assur. Will the citizens of the Nile act to end this threat once and for all and avenge those lost this day? Lose 2500 population and 3 happiness and gain a pissed off enemy Sphinx and its followers to the northeast (marked in grey).

The Romans plant their wheat seeds in Florentia and build a farm to support the seedlings and before long are growing many fine golden stalks of tasty wheat which provide additional industry to the town and increase the Roman foodstores as well. Gain the Wheat Farm (Florentia) building, change wheat to wheat+ to wheat++ and change food production to 21,000.

Behold, the Romans have created a new spear! Elegant and deadly the new spear design is grand indeed and befitting of Roma, a great improvement upon the bronze pilums of old. With these new iron spears the Roman spearmen will be much more competent and the Roman military much stronger for it. Change Spears I to Roman Spears II (Iron Pilums) and change troop strength to +23 to combat rolls for every 100 troops. Also gain 1 favor.

The Romans work to improve their pitifully small galleys and succeed, and although the new and improved Roman war galleys are much bigger and a significant step above what they were they still fail to match the magnificent quadriremes of their neighbors. More work will need to be done to get them to that point but this is certainly a good start. Change Shipbuilding I to Shipbuilding II (War Galleys) and change ship strength to +13 to combat rolls for every 5 ships. Also gain 1 favor.

The Romans study their metallurgy further, learning from the techniques of smithing masters past and recording their findings into many new theories of metallurgy which will help streamline the metalworking process and allow them to do far more with metal than they could before and make things far easier as well. Change Metallurgy I to Metallurgy II.

>>50316

King Eurypon sounds the call and many fine Spartiates, Periokoi and Helots rush to be part of the soon-to-be-mighty armies of Lakedaimon. Gain 250 troops.

The Spartiates order the expansion northward, being careful not to violate the deal with the Elysians, and manage to claim most of the rest of the land up to the Elysian borders for the glory of Lakedaimon. Gain 4 territories.

The Spartiates decide that a good way to fight fires better would be to have a way to bring fire-quenching water to them rather than making exhausting and time consuming runs back and forth from the nearby river. They come up with a system of irrigation ditches to divert the course of the local river into ditches which run into the center of town, and the Spartiates delight when they learn that this method also serves as an excellent method of ensuring that fields remain lush and well-watered. Gain the Irrigation I tech and change food production to 17,000.

>As the people in the southeast harbor of Voies go about their business they encounter men from a distant land tending to what appears to be one of their many island colonies. These people, known as the Mediterrans, appear to have settled on many islands in the great Mediterranean Sea and as they worship Salacia, a goddess of the sea they have acquired a strong maritime tradition with an immense, powerful and expertly trained navy. The islands on which they reside are also rich in natural resources and they have advanced ironworking technology as well. They’re a very reverent people and take their religion very seriously, which is something the Spartiates may wish to keep in mind. What will you make of this new civilization?

>>50318

The Skraeli take the bow concepts utilized by the Aiseirigh and the Francisians and make their own variant on the idea, a powerful bow design that can shoot far and with force. An excellent first start indeed for Skraeli bowcraft and a symbol of Skraeli might to come. Gain the Skraeli Bows I tech and change military strength to +11 to combat rolls for every 100 troops and change ship strength to +13 to combat rolls for every 5 ships.

The Skraeli also improve their ships, outfitting their quinquiremes into sturdy and swift war quinquiremes, adding bigger sails and sturdier reinforced hulls to their designs. These huge ships are truly a sight to behold and a symbol of Skraeli naval might. Change Shipbuilding VII to Shipbuilding VIII (Skraeli War Quinquiremes) and change ship strength to +15 to combat rolls for every 5 ships.

Unfortunately all this progress leaves little time or manpower to train up any new troops, the Skraeli will have to make do with the ones they have for now.

1st roll is for bait attempt vs. the Deep Stalker

>Your people are starving! Population growth is halved until starvation is fixed and happiness will decrease in 3 turns.

More strong and capable troops are trained, able to be trained into infantrymen, bowmen and bullriders alike. Gain 250 troops and 1 favor.

Rather than invent something new the siege engineers bicker and argue vehemently over the proper siege engines, whether it be deciding on improving upon the battering ram would be best versus making something new, or the materials that the Qarthakians should use for it, or whether they even need any at all, the Qarthakian siege engineers keep finding new things to argue about and the hostilities are beginning to spill out into the greater society. Lose 1 happiness.

Though not improving in the leaps and bounds they’ve been making the Qarthakian bullriders nevertheless improve their bullriding techniques further, taking what works and removing what doesn’t to create improved and more efficient techniques. Change Superior Qarthakian Mounted Combat II to Superior Qarthakian Mounted Combat III (Bullriding) and change troop strength to +17 to combat rolls for every 100 troops.

2nd roll is for continued combat against the bandits

>The rice farm in Xinyang isn’t legendary

This time the rice farms are planted as many days of excellent weather make for ideal planting conditions. Gain the Han Rice Terraces (Wuhan) building, change rice+++++ to rice+++++++ and change food production to 41,750.

The oranges are also planted in an exemplary fashion utilizing the wonderful weather to great advantage. Gain the Han Orange Farms (Shengli) building, change oranges++++ to oranges++++++ and change food production to 45,250.

The fishery in Wuhan is also completed giving nutritious crawfish to the people to eat. Gain the Fisheries (Wuhan) building, change crawfish to crawfish+ and change food production to 47,000.

The Han extend their lands further up the river, and many new territories are claimed for the Han. The expansion is only halted when the Han hit lands claimed by another nation, an industrious kingdom known as Rus’ia whose burning forges and thriving metalworking tradition are one of the few sources of warmth in the often bitterly cold lands they inhabit. The people here are ruled by the Tsar and his family and have an organized religion worshipping a god of fire and smithing named Svarog. Despite the recent appearance of a few rebels here and there they are a remarkably stable country and most place great faith in the Tsar and in their god. What will you make of this new civilization? Gain 8 territories and 1 favor.

>>50322

The Cogotasi are unsure of any poisonous materials due to having little to no working knowledge of toxins and their effects, but the Cogotasi devise a plan nonetheless, and infiltrate the outpost of Gorgothas in the dead of night to spread a more common “poison” around, accumulated horse manure and fecal matter which they delicately spread in the foodstores, trying not to make the contamination too obvious but contaminating it nonetheless. The next day the Cogotasi note many of the enemy troops absent from training exercises, with reports of a stomach sickness going around. This’ll definitely hamper their ability to fight. The Cogotasi loyalists can’t help but snicker slyly at the news. Gain +1 to combat strength for all troops when fighting Gorgothan rebels.

3rd roll is for combat vs. Gorgothan rebels

>>50323

Lord Poseidon protects once more as he gives a warning not to venture onto the angered seas today, and the people thank him and listen to his advice, thus saving their lives as a vicious and powerful storm ravages the seas but narrowly misses Trojan lands. Lose 3 favor.

This time the Trojans succeed in creating their rudders, and with these rudders they’re able to revolutionize their ships, making them much faster and more maneuverable than before. The new swift quadriremes are able to literally turn circles and avoid obstacles that would crash lesser ships. These ships become unique to the Trojans and a symbol of their might on the seas. Change Shipbuilding IV to Shipbuilding V (Swift Quadriremes) and change ship strength to +12 to combat rolls for every 5 ships.

>need to spend favor to do magic shit

Though the people try to search for people who can use magic in battle to crush their enemies they find that getting another Chthonius won’t be that easy. In addition the people find that they have no spells that might have direct battle usage, which is something the Trojans should probably work on later.

The Trojans find several packs of wolfdrakes and although it is a painful process filled with many scratches and bites they’re eventually able to take the more submissive of the beasts and tame and domesticate them. The wolfdrakes prove to be very loyal, swift and deadly beasts, capable of learning commands and serving as excellent beasts of war, hunting beasts, and companions alike. The wolfdrakes become adopted into Trojan society and quickly become a prominent symbol of the land. Gain the Animal Taming I (Trojan Wolfdrakes) tech, gain the Trojan Wolfdrakes industrial resource and change troop strength to +21 to combat rolls for every 100 troops.

>>50326

The Irish try to expand their potato farms but unfortunately their experiments in trying out a new miracle cure to grow more potatoes ends in disaster when the whole field is killed off. The people are able to get food production up again for the next harvest but many do not make it through that winter due to the slight famine the blight has caused. Lose 225 population.

However the Irish are able to expand their holdings, claiming many areas around the isle that they reside on. Gain 5 territories.

The Irish pray and work on new methods to heal the sick and before long have improved their medicine, allowing for a cure to one of the more menacing ailments that blight the Irish. Change Medicine III to Medicine IV and change population growth to 2.5%.

>As the Irish move northwards they spot another civilization’s mighty armies taking over a feared nest of bandits that had long plagued the people of the isle that the Irish inhabit. Upon further investigation they hail from a land known as Aiseirigh, on a much larger island to the east of the Irish isle, and they are a warrior people with a mighty military tradition worshipping Brigid, a goddess of the forge and of warriors. Aside from their military might the Aiseirigh people also have a thriving cloth and farming industry and are a nation of industry and craft as well as war. It seems they’re currently at war with mysterious outsiders from lands far away from the isles the two of you inhabit, though you know not who. You have met the Aiseirigh!

>>50329

The Francisians sound the call to war and 200 troops answer and are promptly trained into fine warriors and archers. Gain 200 troops.

The Francisians also take their first steps on the great isle to the north. It’s a bold move settling north into the enemy’s home turf and the explorers know not what to expect, but they’ve settled parts of the southern coast nonetheless gaining a tenuous foothold in the region. Gain 4 territories.

Lastly the Francisians expand their fleets and build many fine karves to add to their navy and defend their shores. Gain 25 ships.

>As the Francisians boldly venture ashore on the new island they are greeted by the first view of their enemy - a mighty foe indeed with a strong military culture and equally strong army worshipping a goddess of the forge named Brigid. These people, named the Aiseirigh, control most of the island and along with their military prowess they also seem to excel in agriculture and craftsmanship, particularly cloth and dyes. How will the Francisians respond to this threat?

>>50335

Thankfully through a little speechcraft and charisma the king is finally able to convince some of his bravest men to join the military and defend their homelands. Gain 300 troops.

The people get the idea of building a large moat around the city, but seeing as how the capital city of Konigsberg is quite large and the concept of digging a proper moat harder than it would first seem the Prussian builders are beset by delays and nothing gets done.

However the people flock in droves to promises of a new life to the south, and it doesn’t take long before the small outpost grows into a thriving city with all the settlers and supplies being sent that way. Add <insert name of city here> (City) to your outposts/towns/cities tab and increase population growth to 3.5%.

>>50337

The Mediterrans rejoice as the new barracks in Aureumterra is complete, and all the delays have proven to be worth it as the building is great and expansive with intricate Mediterran architecture and sturdy construction. These barracks will be able to house and train many more men than normal, definitely a good thing in these troubled times. Gain the Mediterran Barracks (Aureumterra) building.

Though the blood orange farms in Mediterra are delayed and fail to produce anything the Mediterrans are able to develop an orchard in Tabulaterra to bring delicious oranges to all. Gain the Orange Farms (Tabulaterra) building, change Oranges to Oranges+ and change food production to 22,500.

The Mediterrans also succeed in planting a wheat farm in the more mountainous lands of Ferrumterra, and the golden fields will undoubtedly help with ensuring everyone is well-fed. Gain the Wheat Farm (Ferrumterra) building, change Wheat to Wheat+ and change food production to 23,250.

>Scouts report the sea monster growing more restless recently. It may be preparing to attack.

>Some scouts around the Mediterrans’ holdings on the isle of Crete notice that the peninsula to the north of Crete seems to have recently been inhabited, with the makings of a small harbor being made on the southeast tip of the peninsula. These people, belonging to the nation of Lakedaimon, have a strong warrior culture worshipping the war god Ares, and have a world-class training regimen along with highly disciplined troops. They also have a rigid caste system with Spartiates being the ruling class and natives of their capital city of Sparta, Periokoi being captured freedmen and Helots being captured slaves. What will the Mediterrans make of these new people?

Though not as much as the Tsar might like with all the effort that was put into looking for them the Tsar finds 200 eager young men to serve in the Rus’ian army and put down the rebel scum. Gain 200 troops.

The construction of the Kremlin also finally makes progress once more as the walls of the mighty building are erected, leaving only the roof and upper fortifications to be completed. Change Kremlin Foundation and Framework to Kremlin Foundation, Framework and Walls.

>>50340

Still the king asks for soldiers, but the soldiers do not show up. The king has to wonder why his people are so lazy and uncommitted to the defense of their homeland…maybe if he keeps insisting they will come…or maybe he could try something a bit more drastic.

Despite the king’s failings with getting people to join the military he is greeted with pleasant news about fortifications research..the people have discovered new bricklaying techniques that result in much harder to topple structures which will help for not only making walls and forts but other buildings as well. Change Masonry I to Masonry II.

The Konians decide to venture south following rumors of another people living down there and find the reclusive and mysterious civilization of the Transylvanians. The land of Transylvania is a land dominated by fortresses and walled cities and the people are well-trained indeed in the arts of war. Human sacrifices of criminals, the insane and the ill to their dark lord Chernabog, a dark and macabre god of death and rebirth, are common in these mountainous and glum lands and the people seem a bit…off-putting, as though they’re…different than the average human, though the explorers can’t place their fingers on what that difference might be. Despite all this the Transylvanians under the administration of Count Vladislav II appear to have adopted a policy of staunch isolationism, to the point where the Konian explorers are given a short tour out of courtesy and then promptly bid farewell and asked to leave. No doubt a strange civilization but what will the Konians make of this?

>>50343

Being close to the Void Wastes the people of Amiculum Bellum know to stay away from them as nothing but death lies in the near endless black expanses and so the people of Amiculum Bellum venture westwards, claiming many new provinces as their own, with even a spot to build a new city if the people of Amiculum Bellum so wish. Gain 4 territories.

The people beseech Venars but aren’t sure of what, and fighting quickly breaks out over what to ask of their god. In the end nothing happens but the endless bickering has eroded stability amongst the priest classes as the people remain unsure of what to ask. Lose 1 happiness.

>>50344

The Moors build a great temple indeed to their deity Ashiakle, making a fine building made out of fine stone and wood and even placing a golden statue adorned with beautiful Moorish sapphires in the center of the temple to act as its focal point. Surely Ashiakle will be pleased with this, and the people now have a place to worship and seek guidance as well. Gain the Temple of Ashiakle (Al-Tarima) building, gain 1 favor and gain 1 happiness.

The shipbuilders receive their orders and before long 20 fine Moorish quadriremes are produced and are ready for action. Gain 20 ships and 1 favor.

The trainers hit a mental block when trying to invent new training methods, unable to improve much upon the tried and true methods that they’ve already come up with. Perhaps this mental block will resolve itself later and new inspiration will come at that time.

However the Moors are able to build their quadriremes a bit better, building much sturdier and faster versions of their great quadriremes built to withstand the rigors of war. With these the Moorish navy will be much more prepared for anything that comes at it. Change Shipbuilding IV to Shipbuilding V (War Quadriremes) and change ship strength to +12 to combat rolls for every 5 ships. Also gain 1 favor.

>>50375

Alas the progress into reforming the legal code doesn’t go quite so well as Alexios reads it and finds it full of loopholes, and thus orders the lawmakers to rewrite them so they are more concise and just. However this will likely take some more time..

At the behest of Basileus Alexios the Elysians expand their lands westward into mountainous but likely resource-rich lands waiting to be exploited and dug up for the prizes which lie beneath the earth. Gain 5 territories.

Seeing a good spot to make a future city the Elysians decide to establish the beginnings of an outpost in the small coastal region to the south of Alexiopolis. Though small for now the outpost bears great promise if properly invested in and may one day become a great center of trade for the Elysians. Add <insert name of outpost here> (Outpost) to your outposts/towns/cities tab and change population growth to 3%.

Friedrich and the Elsasser experiement with the new material and seek to refine it beyond its crude initial form, and succeed in inventing a more pure version of the stuff. Though it is time consuming and they can’t produce much for anything more than weapons, armor and the like they nonetheless have come up with a slightly more purified version of the stuff. Change Steelworking I to Steelworking II, change crude steel to steel and change troop strength to +21 to combat rolls for every 100 troops.

At the behest of Samson 200 more brave souls join the Elsasser military, eager to get their hands on the new steel weapons and use them to defend their mighty homeland.

Emboldened by the discovery of the wonder metal steel Julius and his most trusted colleagues begin working on the biggest project yet - more than just mere dormitories and houses, Julius envisions an entire city deep under the Earth in the protected realm of Mantus, safe from the dangers of the outside world. Once this great undertaking is complete all of Elsass, minus the farmland, will be completely under the mountain encased in serene earth and darkness. The plans are made and foundations laid and soon Julius’s vision will be a reality. Gain the Elsass Undercity Plans building (this is a great building in progress).

SKRAEL AND FRANCISIA VS. THE DEEP STALKER

SKRAEL AND FRANCISIA ROLL: 80 + 465 + 143 = 688

DEEP STALKER ROLL: 74 + 140 x 1.5 = 321

Unfortunately the Skraeli gambit to lure the beast to attack Aiseirigh falls flat as the beast becomes enraged at the sight of the ships and viciously lashes out at them. Fortunately the sheer number of the amassed fleet is enough to neuter the beast and kill it before it could cause much harm but the plan of the Skraeli has still failed.

>>50311

>>50318

SKRAEL LAND FORCES VS. AISEIRIGH

AISEIRIGH ROLL: 57 + 306 = 363

SKRAEL ROLL: 21 + 44 + 5 = 70

Unfortunately as a result the Skraeli navy is distracted as they dodge the sea monster’s blasts and strike it down leaving the land troops on their own to make a bitter last stand against the main forces of the Aiseirigh army, which vastly outnumber the meager troops of the Skraeli. The resulting battle is a bloodbath, with the Skraeli army being utterly destroyed in the conflict. The navy arrives too late to rescue the Skraeli soldiers and it seems the Skraeli have been repelled from Aiseirigh, at least for now.

Skrael loses all troops.

Aiseirigh loses no troops.

SKRAEL FORCES REMAINING: 0 troops, 155 ships

FRANCISIAN FORCES REMAINING: 55 ships

AISEIRIGH FORCES REMAINING: 1703 troops

GOTLAND VS. LIETUVA

GOTLAND ROLL: 66 + 189 + 15 + 47 = 317

LIETUVA ROLL: 15 + 77 x 1.17 = 107

With the help of Magni along with fresh reinforcements and a trio of battering rams the Gotland invaders are finally able to break the gates of Vilnius down and before long the city has fallen despite the city’s defenders having put up a hard battle with what little defenses they could scrounge up. The city of Vilnius and the lands of Lietuva now lie in Gotland’s control, but unfortunately the Lietuvans, rather than letting the enemy enjoy the spoils of THEIR labor, have burned down much of the town leaving little of what once remained aside from a few captured survivors and some loot and treasures that they didn’t end up running away with. In addition Magni has been growing discontent, he longs for a real battle, not one against defenseless weaklings.

As Lietuva has lost their last remaining settlement they have unfortunately been removed from the game. RIP.

Though the bandits make a last stand surrounded by cowardly traps they are no match for the speed and skill of the Qarthakian bullriders who along with additional reinforcements quickly overwhelm the last of the desert bandits. Gain 500 freed slaves (should you wish to accept them) and gain the territory the bandits were occupying. Lose 77 troops.

COGOTAS VS GORGOTHAN REBELS

COGOTAS ROLL: 11 + 102 x 1.1 = 124

GORGOTHAN REBELS ROLL: 3 + 130 = 133

Seeing the attacking Gorgothan force the Cogotans decide to meet the attacking army with their own in battle rather than wait for them to come to the city. Though the Gorgothans’ forces had been weakened somewhat by the food contamination the Gorgothans still field a sizable force, their Mauri mercenaries and converted Cogotan troops reinforcing them. The battle is a long and bitter stalemate though it appears that the sheer number of the Gorgothans appear to be turning the tide slightly in their favor. Still, however, the battle rages. Lose 148 troops and roll another 1d100 next turn (free action, you’re defending)

The Francisian settlers soon receive visitors– a group of armed young men, led by a muscular man of fifty years, his scars accented by vibrant purple paints, his beard and hair both made prickly and stiff by beeswax.

In a stiff and thickly accented tongue, the man demands an immediate audience with whoever is heading the expansion efforts.

>Nation name:

Amiculum Bellum

>Color:

Dark Gold

>Fluff:

Originating from a land of cold grassy plains are the people of Amiculum Bellum. Their ancestors were once the men and women of two rival cultures, the vastly war-like Bellumites and deeply spiritual Amiculians. Both groups were perpetually in conflict, neither showing mercy to one another as they constantly waged war. The quality yet limited resources of their land, coupled with the high birth rate of twins, meant was as much for population control as it was for idealogical reasons and resources. It wasnt until generations later that the two groups managed to negotiate and, through extensive trade and agreements, come to put aside their differences and unite as one. As part of their agreement, one identical child from each set of twins is given over to the opposite group, to create peace and harmony between them equally. The two groups are now symbiotic, the Bellumites holding control over the military and related means like resource management, while the Amiculians wield power over things such as art, culture, and more. The nation is therefore led by two symbiotic kings, the Lord of War and the Maestro of Culture, who must perpetually act together if they wish to maintain and advance the nation.

In terms of culture the people of Bellum Somnium deeply value the aspects of their cultural identity, emphasizing a life of equal parts discipline and self expression. Bellumite equipment is often decorated and personalized within key limitations, while Amiculian food and drink is often created in relation to certain concepts and ideals. This complex pattern of thought is integrated into all aspects of life, seemingly byzantine to outsiders as they act upon their beliefs and legends in every aspect of their lives.

The Amiculum Bellum military is made up of men organized into units known as "Aegis". These Aegis are made up of men wielding a staff weapon of short length known as a Salis(one head is a mace and the other a spear/blade tip)and a dagger for . Each Aegis is categorized and named after a metal or significant cultural concept(1st Iron Aegis, 12th Gelded Aegis, 119th Aegis of Iron Will, 289th Grand Master Aegis). These Aegis are meant to be full military formations, and each drills extensively for the various assigned duties it will engage in(frontline, skirmishers, guard duty).

With no-official hierarchy of the military, the most experienced soldier that the rest generally follow is sent, followed by well armed sentries for protection. These men are not particularly large but their lean muscle is still apparent under their modest garments. They are all well groomed and their hair trimmed neatly. They hold themselves tall and proud and, despite their best efforts to be polite, you can't help but notice them looking down their nose at the Aiseirigh. Wherever they go, it smells faintly of wild flowers

"You, our enemy, have called this meeting. We, as respectful and cultured men, have accepted. We hope you realise there is no pride in attacking your foe during talks. We have occupied the south of this, the Skrael-Franc Island due to our ongoing alliance with the Skraeli. What have you to say to us that you would call this meeting?"

>>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 against 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. A city that stood against 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 Qarthakian envoy's Galley pulls into the Harbor. The sailors once the ship has been rigged, very clearly stare at the massive fleet of Triremes the Mediterrans have. A cold seed of dread settles into every man's gut. This utterly massive fleet, one that outstrips the Qarthakian navy in every way, was prepared to fight, and that boded poorly for them.

Still they came under the Mediterrans white flag of peace, hoisted high above, with the Qarthakian's flag, a golden bull backed by a golden sun on a pink field, under it. Their envoy, a Son of the Councilor of Green, Walks off his ship with his honor guard, clad in armor with cotton cloth underneath, pink and gold with hints of green delineating they are here under official Qarthakinan business and what part of the nation he belonged too.

From a small gathering of tents grew into a small city on the seven hills, and out from it came a people hungry for more, like wolves in their hunger.

Attack the Francisians.

2. The Aiseirigh expand south, aiming to close the gap between themselves and their newfound foes. +[Surveying II]

>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.

1. The settlers sent to Skrael-Franc Island have been tasked with a single job. Build a city and build it well. And so they settle Fort du Lile, right on the coast, under the watchful eye of our great lady of the deep.

2. Our iron is strong but perhaps there is stronger. Some forge workers speak of alchemical magic that fuses fuel with our iron to create what they call steel. We must produce this as if it were our only metal (develop steel)

3. The troops we have called are worthy but they alone will not suffice. Bring more able bodied men to the front line (recruit soldiers)

4. Send a team of scouts in land and on ships around this isle. Are there any creatures or civilizations to be wary of?

A man in simple clothes little different from those of the sailors walking around the docks greets you while his equally plain dressed guards walk close behind them. Despite the poor fashion and lack of armor it is clear this man is used to commanding respect and reverence while the men guarding him have a cold and deadly look to them that only the most hardened of veterans have. The city seems an almost living contradiction of itself no one wears fancy clothes or ornaments but the buildings are all made of fine marble and gold.

The man steps forward and speaks with with a regal tone, "I wish to welcome my brothers to the south the Qarthakian people I understand you are called. I am Scipio King of the Mediterrans and first of the living seablood. Please relax and enjoy our hospitality we have plenty of beer prepared your men may avail themselves of the taverns as they see fit. If you wish to follow me I will show you to your quarters in the palace. Please forgive me if anything is out of place there we rarely use it for anything other than court sessions and foreign dignitaries which we have unfortunately had very few of. I trust your travels have been peaceful and you didn't run into the kraken that has been plagueing us. Salacia willing our fleet will soon be ready to strike the final blow in this war that has been going on since my birth. You are the first party to arrive our roman neighbors should be arriving soon and then we can start our talks"
