The "Hopefully 4chan wont crash" Edition
Guys I know you continued to post after 4chan launched but I had to go to bed. I saw someone offered to GM in my absence but I'm not going to count any of that.
This has been my first ever thread and really the first time I've ever posted more then once or twice in a handful of threads, though I've lurked for a very long time I have learned a lot about how I want to run the game.
So Here are the New Updated Rules:
1. Game Change: Switching each turn to a season, I think this is going to make things a lot better.
2. I will launch each season with a random event based on tables I have.
3. For you to take a valid turn you must link the new season random event and use the following format.
"Research"
"I want to research this type of technology"
(include a 1d20 roll if you wish to research)
"Build"
"I WIsh to build this random thing"
(No role required but you must have appropriate material)
"Trade"
"These are the trades I agreed upon last season"
(You can make as many as you want but they do not take effect untill you list them in your action the following turn"
"Citizen/people"
"I want to explore this/attack tha/ Build ships"
(This is how you use your population, Note exploring territory does not make it yours untill you sieve it with troops.)

Research:
...What if instead of Cotton we used readily available WHALE LEATHER.
Yeah! First we need to research better Whale Leathering.
Build: Winter is coming. So we'll need food storage for the meat
Hunt: Whales!
>>44108819
If this does not pick up, the next time I will be picking this up is Monday at 11am EST(eastern standard time)
>>44108860
So google says whale leather is real, and congratulations, You have basic whale leather. It will require further research to build your hot air vehicles.
Okay you build root cellars in the tundra to store the whale meat.
You collect more oil, blubber and meat. Also now some leather
>>44108944
Sweet.
Now to wait on the others

WINTER HAS COME
Strong winds creep out of the north and strongle life from the lands,
Piracy stops for the season.
All water North of 5 on the y axis freeze solid,
The Crab and Walrus dissapear from the coast,
It Snows Heavily down to 12 on the x axis
[10, 11, 12, 13] Raging storms go for weeks, this is monsoon season.

>>44109359
Research: What a better time to research hot air balloons more properly than when it is freezing cold
Build:
Root Cellar Expansion: Ice House - This is the perfect time. We can store blocks of ice in our root cellars throughout the year giving our food even more preservation ability!
Hunt: Time to drill some holes to go ice fishing during the winter.
>>44109439
Damn, your people turn out to be a hardy winter folk! Possibly related to those of Northern Soul,
Even with a negative from the weather you roll so well I will say you make improvements to your balloons, not so much in piloting them for the weather is to severe, You improve their design as well as make them moderately weather proof. You Now have a good Design!
Yes good idea for your building, though your nation is moderatly cold all year round, you along with 1 and the north shore of 3 suffer from "late spring" where you still have snow in spring, at least partially.
You continue to bring in food , Hmm I love how you put your leather and blubber etc. at an amount of 1, it made me come up with a whole resource system to make this a mutch more formal game, like you produce a single unit of each thing for each source you have then then consume them. hmmmmmm
Rolled 12 (1d20)
>>44109274
We the Baroxy Commonwealth welcome the winter as the cycle of death in every year. We will research medicine as the plagues have ravaged our populace. To help ease the drought issue we will build channels down fron the mountain lakes to fuel our farms and thirst needs. Lastly we will launch probing attacks into Ground to test their defenses.
>>44109689
Hmm, your people learn thinks like basic triage, which will help "some" in the battlefield, as with that roll you learn a basic form of it, You can dig the trenches this turn but you'll have to study that a bit more to get full use of.
Who are you attacking?
>>44109788
Geomund it just autocorrecteed.
>>44109689
>>44109788
Oops this is your gm speaking
Hey GM. Ill be on shortly, Ill update my stats and actions for this turn. Looking forward to it
Rolled 16 (1d20)
>>44109819
This is a roll to determine there defense,
1-15, No men are lost
16-19, Geomund Loses some troupes, so do you
20, Your poor attacks loose you 400 men,
You learn near your old iron mines they have constructed a fort, this gives them a +3 deffense in battles, the land in the south is controlled by hostile nomads, you can not attack them on that front without dealing with them, unless you wish to fight two enemies at once.

>>44109439
Venicia, my neighbour to the south. Might I interest you in an allegiance? I am sure we could both benefit greatly and there is some that say our people are kin of old. We should be allies.
>>44110187
11 and 2, as well as some islands, remain unclaimed
>>44110226
Ah, Greenland, my oldest ally. Would you care for some aid in fortifying your position? I can send a cadre of architects double quick, if you wish them
>>44110075
>Build: Highways connecting my cities
>Research: Ballistae (Roll attached)
>Action: Scout the land route to the coast nearest Yumatsu
Okay, to construct the road requires you to dig through 10 feet of snow, you start the highway but will take till the end of spring,
>>44110154
>>Rolled 4 (1d20)
Hmm, your people struggle to get the hang of siege equipment.
Okay, an initial scouting, you bump into explorers from Lenqus, who are actually led by your cartographers, You learn there are coral reefs with 100s of species of fish, as well as several species of sea snail who can be turned into pigment and dye, purple, red and blue
>>44110154
Nope, 11 is open and im thinking for people whod like to play hard mode but plots are taken can become my npc factions,
Currently:
Pirates
Hostile desert nomads
cannibal islanders( currently being held temporarily)
and Arctic Eskimos/vikings
Rolled 8 (1d20)
>>44110226
Roll.
>>44110268
Excellent. Can I claim a corridor to that reef now, or do I need to wait until next season? I seem to recall in the last thread military movements were held seperately but I dont want to presume
>>44110262
If your expert architects could build walls while under attack, you would truly be masters of your craft.
>>44110226
>>clockwork enhanced boats
Action:
>>Defend my position on cannibal's Northern Island
Build:
>>Clockwork tanks
Okay I will say you can have 5 of your prototype tank, but you'll need to research them to make them better in combat, and improve mechanical crossbow mount,
You entrench your holding On North Pearl Island
>>44110336
Hmm, your leading scholars believe that clockwork boats will be the future, but as of yet can not crack the enigma
>>44110343
Last time they were but this time they are now part of your citizen move,
>>44110343
>>44110226
>>44109359
Did I explain the rules okay??
>>44110401
Are you still accepting new players?
>>44110401
I think I've got a grip on it all, aye. I'll try to keep to them but apologies in advance if I make some mistakes. Looking forward to next season.
>>44110375
Ah, the battle yet rages. Hmm. How much weight can your clockwork mechanisms move? I may have an idea...
>>44108819
Oh shit, we're back!
>>44110187
>>44110440
Please see my answer to you here
>>44110268
>>44110459
Greetings, comrade. Good to see you back. I trust all is well?I might be a bit sporadic for a while lads. Need to feed the dogs and such
>>44110455
My metal monsters can move with the power of many men! They are quite slow, though, and do require a powerful man to turn the keys.
>>44110505
Well then, perhaps if you built some dedicated just to moving, say next season, I could have my architects build some smaller fortifications which you could then wheel into place? Gods willing, of course.
Rolled 14 (1d20)
>>44110487
Of course, my friend.
>>44109274
Okay, so this season
I want to research ways to use our wheat
I want to start building a wall on our East border
I want to send people to start settling the southern coast of [2] so we can harvest its resources in the coming year
>>44110549
Sounds magical. It is a deal!
>>44110459
Okay heres a new map because in photoshop I accidently doubled your fort layer without noticing
>>44110455
>>44110505
Hmm the near constant winding and current difficulty mean they can only carry two men, their armor and weapons and ammo for the crossbow
>>44110268
On my phone only looked for ones linked to my post.
Sure I'm up for using 11. At work, so bit of a delay. But getting out soon.
>>44110573
Ah, a pity then. Perhaps in the future comrade.
>>44110557
Okay, your people learn to make all sorts of breads and cakes
That is a massive building process, it will require Large slabs of stone, if you can acquire the material it will take two seasons to build, this can count as one of them.
Okay in spring Ill post an updated map.
As well as give >>44110598
a nation
>>44110701
OP, does the map conform to the norms? Is left east or west?
>>44110557
I hear you will need a lot of stone for this building project of yours, comrade. If you are willing to, say, leave us a corridor to the south coast, I could have stone and architects sent to aid your project.
>>44110701
Excellent. We shall be the greatest culinary force in the world. As for the wall, I don't think there's a way for me to get that stone as of now. Could I erect a temporary wall out of wood for the time being until I could acquire stone?
Rolled 1 (1d20)
SPRING IS UPON US
Okay, Everything below 5 on the y axis thaws, the crazy monsoons are here, and gentle warm life bringing rains fall on the whole map,
The Event roll will be revealed AFTER your actions are taken, it is a secret roll!!
>>44110769
Forgot the map like a fucktard
>>44110756
>>44110766
Ah, my Northern brothers, you would be so willing? Then we would happily oblige. We will leave a thoroughfare at the southernmost point of the wall.
>>44110796
I would happily offer such, if you would be so gracious as to leave a corridor to the south open. Say, if you could not settle 1,10?
>>44110824
I only ask as it will take us time to claim the remainder of the hills first but the trade route would be of great value. Im sure you understand.
>>44108819
On shit, I'm at work! Keep my people alive and well until I finish. Good job OP
>>44110796
Wair you said east, so you ment a wall between you and 4 correct?
>>44110756
Yes,
>>44110756
>>44110766
Also dont forget to confirm your trade in your action, its away to help me keep track of all the moving parts,
Yes
>>44110769
Further advance my clockwork tanks is my research.
BUILD WALL is my build.
Advance on the savages is my action.
I made a deal with Northern Soul in winter for him to send architects to help with the WALL. He didn't ask for anything in return, but I'll send his architects home on a new ship, with the savages pearls and skulls.
Rolled 19 (1d20)
>>44110824
Ah, that's what you mean. I understand. If you wish to settle the westernmost coast, then feel free.
>>44110769
This season, we research how to use the coral and various other things we procure from our new coastline.
We continue construction on the wall
I have traded with Northern Soul for stone to construct it
And I train more archers, now with access to crossbows. I intend to eliminate the pirates for good this summer
>>44110861
As soon as the trade is confirmed or denied, I will make my action
Rolled 16 (1d20)
>>44110878
Here's the roll.
Rolled 3 (1d20)
>>44110900
Then we have a compact. I will have the stone shipped immediately.
>>44110878
Your generosity is appreciated good sir. Thank you.
And now for my turn:
Research: Ballistae (roll attached)
Build: A fortress at 2,19 (Assuming road building doesn't take this up)
Action: I want to claim the remaining hills to my west.
Trades:
I have an agreement with Lenqus for access to the sea at 10,1
I am receiving Skulls and Pearls from Greenland
I am owed a shipment from Albatross.
Rolled 20 (1d20)
The Battle of North Pearl island continues
(also roll for your research)
On a roll of 1 You take the island and massacre the enemy force using your new prototype tanks
On a roll of 2-12 The Island is seized, using basic skrimish tactics, your crossbows mow them down, half the enemy force escapes on canoe
13-18 The Battle is a stalemate, as the superior numbers of the islanders hold you off,
19-20 The Pearl Islanders Push you back to the coast and eat your dead, you lose 200 soldiers and 2 tanks
>>44111051
Well thats a grim turn of events.
Perhaps blockading them is a wiser option comrade? You would risk less and you could develop your forces until you are sure of annihilating them. And if I can develop a navy, I will assist you further.
>>44111051
>>44111016
That is terrible luck however you erect Solid fortifications on the beaches, and your remaining 3 tanks are now completely battle ready, they are simple in form, yet fearsome.
>>44111051
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
FUCKING CANNIBAL SAVAGES
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
>>44111125
A sad day. We will hold a day of remembrance in their honour.
>>44111179
Drink to the dead's honor with cups made from cannibal skulls.
Are there any spots available?
Also what technology/magic level is this?
>>44111204
We shall offer libations in their honour and mourn as we know how. I shall assemble our finest story tellers, that they may learn the tale and speak of it ever after. But the story is not yet finished comrade. We must give it a good ending. Be wise, for the pen is in your hands.
>>44111216
At this point GM would probably let you take 7 if you wanted, that guy was only here for like an hour two days ago before he dropped off
>>44111216
No magic, low tech starting. Some of us have developed advanced tech though.
>>44110900
Your wall is complete!
>>Rolled 19 (1d20)
You learn to make jewelry from the coral, discover turtles, and know that the species of snails can be crushed to make dyes of purple, red and blue.
Your archer corp swells by 1000 soldiers
You now have a military of
6000 infantry (one of the largest)
1500 archers
30 ships (with their own crews)
>>44111025
Hmm no, your continued faliure at siege engines eat up a good portion of your traded for lumber
What does albatross owe you?
Congradulations you now have a mighty source of iron!
Taking that land reveals More walrus breeding ground, as well as you discover Coal, burried deep under peat and tar fields
>>44111216
Okay Open are

If you want a hard mode you can play as,
NPC factions
Cannibal savages
Pirates,
Arctic Eskimos
Hostile Desert Nomads
>>44111306
I'll take 7
Am I starting fresh or with the previous players stats?
>>44111306
Yumatsu was playing yesterday, he probably just hasn't seen the new thread. Give him a shot.
Also, can I tame the penguins I have?
>>44111278
Luckily I have no other need for lumber as yet. And Albatross owes me a shipment of goods from [11] as per our agreement.
So did the roads take up my build action for this turn? Or is there some other reason the fort was not constructed?
>>44111125
Did you see this?
>>44111108
>>44111332
Youll start fresh, roll a d10 for me please, also you'll need a name and a tripcode I forgot to put that in the rules
Ill post your stats in summer

>>44111340

Id also like to take this chance to ask my allies if they would send some delegates. It would behoove us to have a place where we can easily communicate, would ye not agree?

Guess I'll take Advanced metallurgy and metalworking if I can combine those, if not just start me of with metallurgy.
>>44111539

>A supply of tobacco
>>44111539
Well once I get a nation, I'll be happy to see about a potential for trade and allies.
>>44111539
Between us, the university at Paldor should serve that purpose well enough, should it not? It is roughly central between our capitals.
>>44111677
I suppose that is a fair point. You are my nearest ally after all.
However, sending messages to Zucaea and Greenland takes quite a while and I should like to be able to breed my birds rather than just using them for message carriers.
>>44111660
I would be glad to trade with you, my good sir. As for an allegiance, I have yet to hear back from one person to whom I offered. Once I have a response, we can discuss it then perhaps?

Excellent. Yet more pearls, I am honoured. Not sure what to do with the skulls as yet. There is perhaps a bit much for drinking cups, and few of them were slain by our arms anyway so we could not claim them for such. Perhaps when the war is over a monument can be made. We shall see.
>>44111750
We the Baroxy Commonwealth shall start to research the best way to use our new canal system. We will also build a new mine to plunder the jewels of the earth. Finally the Claws shall once again try to kill those pesky tribals

I am allied with Greenland, Zucaea and Lenqus and at war with no one
I remain open for allegiances, though spaces are filling fast, and am still seeking technology/knowledge, and horses. I can trade in ivory, which is a useful decorating material and it makes good arrowheads, mead, iron and gold or even exchange the service of architects or cartographers for aid.
My settlements are as follows:
Capital (Herrenshfestning): (1, 18) Holds 7,000 people as well as the Hall and the Embassy
Gold Mining City (Gullfjellet): (1, 17) Near the capital so not as big but still holds 3.5k
Trade Port (Buklander): (2, 13) 3.5k permanent but the population swells and falls with trade.
Misc. City (Stormidtveis): (8, 1) Holds 3.5k and acts as a local trade hub
Iron Mining City (Svarthoyde): (6, 5) Holds about 2k, a stereotypical mining city
Beyond that, the remaining 3.5k are in scattered villages.
Total Population: 23,000
Build: A fortress at 19, 2
Research: Ballistae (roll attached) (do these rolls aggregate or do I need a ''breakthrough'')
Action: Establish mines to exploit the further iron and coal deposits. They can be serviced by Svarthoyde.

THE BATTLE AGAINST THE NOMADS 3
Roll 1 will be for The Islands Roll 2 will be for the Nomads,
BUT FIRST A WORD FROM YOUR SPONSOR
Since everyone will see the battle I wanted to take this time to ask, would you guys be interested in a "Grand Kingdom General" Thread? to discuss your feels, make the game better, plan times and allow people who want to get in reserve their spots? Just a thought
Okay Battle 1,
By the way greenland your crit fail last time means you lost 300 troops
With "tanks" fortifications and clockwork crossbows you push forward
Roll of:
1-3 You sieze the whole island and slaughter this islands army
4-14 You sieze half the Island and destroy half the enemy force
15-19 Stalemate
20-You are thrown off the island and into the sea
Battle 2
1-5 You destroy the nomads and uncover their secret resource!
5-15 You use your superior iron weapons and armor and push the Nomads to the farthest south reaches of the map, dealing them a mighty blow and freeing you to attack geomund
16-18 Stalemate
19-20 The Nomads use their knowledge if the desert to vex you again, loos 500 more troops
I will quickly try and answer peoples turns

on a roll of 1 You Destroy the pirate scum and follow them to their capitol city, razing it to the ground
on a 2-12 You rid your coast of the pirates, finally allowing you to make full use of your hidden coves and discovering a new resource
13-16 Stalemate You lose 5 ships
17-19 You lose 20 Ships as the pirate lords deal you a savage blow
20 - Your folly brought you ruin, you lose 40 ships and the pirates claim a fortress of their own!
>>44113191
A resounding victory, comrade! Congratulations!
>>44113191
I'll send some crossbows to whoever will burn down the pirate's city.
>>44113226
>>44113226
Which city would this be, pray tell? Have you a grid reference? I believe my stocks of Yumatsu Fire could be of use...
>>44113262
I don't know where it is, you'll have to find it. I'll send you some crossbows if you promise to kill the pirates, though. It'll have to be your next action.
>>44113057
You Have succeeded at capturing boar and breeding domesticated pigs from them, however with that roll it was not enough to also get the truffles thistime around
>>44113153
Here ya go
Resources, your population is 6000, however every male is a warrior, so your military is 3000
You live on the island in the upper right/ North East of the map

You also have seals that live there year round for meat and blubber
You also possess long ships.

My allies, I am sorry to hear this.
Research: I wish to see what I can use coal for. I know it burns but what value has it. Can I combine it with iron in some way (roll attached)
Building: I begin to construct a naval force, aiming for 100 ships, equipped with my finest ballistae and guarded by my infantry.
Action: I want to deploy some vessels in search of these pirates, see if I can locate their base.
Because I rolled a 20 and ment to make that its own this pic related is how you start this turn, you lost 100 Soldiers, 100 archers and 5 ships
>>44113610
Wait they took over a city?
>>44113483
Okay, Ill allow it but follow the format everyone else is using, consult the rules also for help/ask other players,
On the island directly south your explorers discover Coal.
>>44113515
Is that what you want, okay I'll tell you a secret. If you mix coal/carbon with iron you get....STEEL
>>44113653
A fort, far less valuable then a city as its merely a defense bonus not a population/recourse center
>>44113708
Ah, I see. Still surprising. A sneak attack I presume?
My turn seems much more pertinent now. Greenland, will you deliver those crossbows that I might smite these cunts from the face of the map as soon as possible?
>>44113445
I study my tanks further, making them stronger.
I hold my position on the North Island and send a fleet to the unsuspecting South Island.
I build a fort on whatever land I have on the North Island, as well as one on the South Island if I get a foothold there.
I send crossbows to Northern Soul and Lenqus.
>>44113653
My friends, we've recently discovered a method of making stronger metal using iron and coal. We have no source of coal of our own, so we'd like to set up a trade.
>>44113754
Excellent. Thank you, comrade. I shall distribute them to my militia and sailors.
>>44113759
We were actually in the process of researching uses for coal. If you would trade us it, I will happily supply you with coal. Thusly armed, you may retake your fort and I can work to drive the cunts from the world.
>>44113544
AH Since your neighbor to the south just got steel as a bonus, and you made a decent roll, yes. Steel is now a think, also you can burn it for fuel/heat.
Okay, You had already started on ships once and been gifted a fine example of a ship from GREENLAND yes, you can have a navy of 100
Base has now been revealed
>>44113754
Roll for tank related goodness,
You promised last time so its confirmed
>>44113753
You Have crossbows
>>44113754
Ill roll a battle for the Far South Pearl Island, if you win I'll put a base there.
I'm going to rule that untill you controll at least half the North island the conditions are to hostile however I will allow you to go German WW2 Trench on the beaches of the north island making your foothold on the island almost completely secure.
Guys how are you liking the new turn format? Comments/Suggestions?
>>44113445
>>44113684
The Rock that burns. The Stalagians has well-kept the secret of her swords, and her Iron. This truly is a blessing of the gods, and Jarl Kalag decrees that when the seasons turn once more, his people will seize this land to mine this treasure. but for now, winter looms ahead, and there is food to be gathered from seas and shores.

Excellent. I do so appreciate your generosity.
>>44113445
For my turn, I will research casting, taking molten steel into a mold to make precise parts more efficiently
To distract from the issue of pirates, we hold our harvest festival. It is a great affair, as our country is one of great bounty, and no one wants for food. We take this time to store a surplus for the winter.
As we do this, I also attempt to take back our southern fort.
>>44113968
If you could improve my ballistae as well, I will send you enough steel to arm your armies and gird your tanks.
And then I will arm my own forces and wage a just war on the pirate scum. Will you agree?
>>44114007
Yes.
>>44113984
You get 1 build, 1 research and 1 action.
>>44114002
May you strike as the fist of a God.

I am allied with Greenland, Zucaea and Lenqus and at war with no one
I remain open for allegiances, though spaces are filling fast, and am still seeking technology/knowledge, and horses. I can trade in ivory, which is a useful decorating material and it makes good arrowheads, mead, iron and gold or even exchange the service of architects or cartographers for aid.
My settlements are as follows:
Capital (Herrenshfestning): (1, 18) Holds 7,000 people as well as the Hall and the Embassy
Gold Mining City (Gullfjellet): (1, 17) Near the capital so not as big but still holds 3.5k
Trade Port (Buklander): (2, 13) 3.5k permanent but the population swells and falls with trade.
Misc. City (Stormidtveis): (8, 1) Holds 3.5k and acts as a local trade hub
Iron Mining City (Svarthoyde): (6, 5) Holds about 2k, a stereotypical mining city
Beyond that, the remaining 3.5k are in scattered villages.
Total Population: 23,000
Actions:
>Research Better Weapons
>Build 10 armoured ships, to be titled Dreadnoughts, equipped with Ballistae in abundance and Yumatsu Fire Launchers
>Arm 10% more of the Population.
>>44114731
You are a bit behind, aye. We will ship the gold and mead asap.
I will fit these cannons to my eastern fortress.

For this last turn, we research rails. If we can equip them on our highways, travel time could be cut to a quarter of what it is now.
We also start work on a highway from East to West, to complement its perpendicular. The highway will run from the southern base of our east wall, across the plains, through the forest, and along the coast, ending at the bit of coast that Northern Soul controls.
Lastly, send men to settle the last bit of land that remains unclaimed between us and Northern Soul.
>>44114710
Research: an advance in metallurgy; we have Iron and we have coal. If I got steel with the previous roll, I'll research steel versions of our superior swords; if not I'll just research for steel.
Build: A Harbour on the Coal Island, so our longboats may have better places to sit out winter storms.
Population: In the harshness of a northern a winter, any land where the seas and soil does not freeze seems near to paradise. Send Men south to (7, 36) to take this land free of Ice!

I want my people to prepare for winter by gathering firewood, coal setting aside suitable food etc.
>>44115006
And now I have a military fit for some island clearing and no pirates to use it on. *Sigh* Also, should I roll again or will you use >>44114977?
>>44115034
Sorry if you were excited to wage war my friend, but those pirates had been a thorn in my side for far too long.

So yeah OP I will be dropping out cause I'm just not feeling it, I surrender half my lands to the Commonwealth and half to hill and wood. I also destroy everything I have built so all they get is desert.
>>44115061
It is no trouble comrade. I am sorry I was not of greater aid. I shall send a large quantity of mead, that ye may celebrate yer great victory, and a pair of Tusks carved with runes lauding your military might and detailing your victory.
>>44115089
Alright I haven't built any ships yet, but I have a city on the coast so I think we can still trade, I'll let my citizens get wood next turn.
>>44115085
How long do truffles hold? And I will trade for hides, if you would offer those rather than leather. Better for insulation that way.

Damn, I was hoping you made that

Damn this is a fail, But I will give you a reroll
>>44115085
Your first try at architecture is unsuccessful,
Roads Built
Your scoute report the land North of you is rich in Polar bear, polar bear dung and the ruins of a lost culture.
>>44115324
Dammit. I guess Ill have to reroll. Btw, did something happen my highways or did you just forget them on this map?

No idea how long truffles hold, I guess thats our GMs call. But I'll trade hides for coal

Alright, OP, you said that I could take one turn.
For this season:
I want to research metalworking, to add to my knowledge which I already have of metalworking. Specifically, I want more skill in swordmaking.
I want to build another bit of highway, going up to my coast with Yumatsu.
For my action, I want to make swords with silver hilts.
I'm behind the game now, so please bear with me if I get confused.

>Anything I can renew as a resource
>>44116399
I'll give you steel if I can finally have some horses
>>44116342
Good enough!
Okay Ill change your road way, also if you post coordinates for your cities ill map them as well
Your beautiful silver decorated swords are only out matched by the commonwealth and the ice men of the far north
>>44116418
Mmmm. These horses are keeping my infrastructure competitive.
Also, are you making the steel or just buying it from somebody else, like Hill and Wood?
>>44116399
Ill offer some ballistae and some wheat, which you can grow, in exchange for horses and the knowledge to expand the herd.
>>44116483
I am making it, though I have no local source of coal, so I trade for it with my ally Northern Soul
FUCKS IT ONE MORE,
Now it is spring, the grounds thaw, the monsoons turn into gentle warm rain, and the bodies of pirates wash up from the briny depths.
No Random event, i'm just still around and want albatross and [4] to get another turn in, fucks the sleep thats what sick time is for right?

This is the last round. huh? Can you give us a time for the next session of the game?
Research - Shipbuilding and sailing
Build: I build a canal system, or at least begin to build one.

COngradulation, you have a limited rail system in place, currently only muscle powered carts and those pulled by bison are avalible to you, but thats the first step, This has become very steampunky
>>44116697
You currently have 7,400 soldiers, the max your population can handle.
You have developed excellet storage against the harsh winter and during the summer season can grow a hardy form of stunted weat in your rocky soil

Your scientists are the least helpful members of your society, you fail your research, I'll Roll for 3 battles on the same table,
Going in order, NORTH, CENTER, SOUTH

Guns. Must. Get. Guns.
Also build a military academy to properly drill officers. I'm establishing a proffessional military. Changes need to be made following the Goemund incident.
>>44110233
You might indeed!
Truly is it not wise that those who are in fact neighbors consider themselves friends, even allies?
Pray then, shall we not cement a friendship not merely in words but also action, and the benefit of good trade?
We have little to offer in return for such a friendship beyond our supply of whale products. But you would have our undying gratitude where we to receive some information on Cartography. We seek to become explorers and tradesmen.
>>44116859
I've been having terrible rolls. I give up for the day. See you on Monday.
>>44116859
>Still use spears and crossbows, no guns

Make sure to get some sleep after you wrap up this turn, OP
Rolled 20 (1d20)
I've had a change of heart; I'm willing to sell some of my domesticated horses - they'll be a renewable breeding population. I'm willing to trade, especially for training.
>>44116812
>>44116914
Indeed so, indeed so. I shall send a trade delegation to your lands at once, along with a number of my cartographers that they may teach your peoples.
Perhaps if you find anything of note, you will look favourably upon us?
>>44116952
>that nat. 20 research roll
>and we already have the compasses made

Congradulation, you have the first steel armor, a mixture of mail and plate,
The Island is taken easy, you lose one man to a bear mauling, the ruins are intriguing, they deserve further study.
>>44116812
Sure, canals can be dug, Ill put them in your map
Okay you discover great pirate island is now owned by lenqus
>>44116843
Yes but it wont take effect till you formalise it in round one of next game
>>44116859
Bad luck,
>>44116952

Thanks! Hope this helps somewhat.I'm from the /tg/ Nation Building community. We've been doing these sort of games for years, just that recently we've also begun to host games on (4+4)chan. So we have a few experience (and plenty of unexperienced) GM's in this sort of thing.

I will offer training in agriculture and Ballistae if you will offer a breeding stock and the knowledge to rear them
>>44116909
