Okay, we are back. I have some hours to kill, so lets play.
Last time, Destiny Landing had been raided by unknowns, however thanks to great defence we won and slaughtered them. They will not come back for a while.
We know that there somewhere is a tribe of Dvaris and some Svejas, but not more. We discovered leather armor last.

Build a paved road to them
As the desire for knowing about the rest of the world increased, the need for a exploration corps was clearly known. As such the tribal council gathered the greatest of the bloodriders and established the Ex-corps. 35 men and women given the mandate to explore and find out about the world around them. Stationed in the two outposts their only mission was to map the world. However, there would still be opportunities for the Council to make a greater effort.
As a indirect result the militia that protected Ferris was incorporated into the sword man corps. Efficiently disbanding them.

Criminalization, prison, public executions
>>44956904
And court of law
Your theological council looked upon the person caught by a swordman. They saw him cut the throat of man half his age. The penalty was severe. It was death. The convicted man shouted out to hear all over the halls when he was sentenced.
"By what right do you condem me to my fate, what makes my fate worse when people of similar action does not recive the same?"
The question burned into the minds of the council. There needed to be control of the city. Justice was needed. So they sat down, and wrote down the laws of their civilization. A code of laws that will guarantee justice and equality for all. They called it "Magna Tarta"
To promote this they built another hall next to the great hall of their forefathers. The hall of justice. From here the only person that could kill another person was sentenced. And as such a new day was born. A day of justice.

Oh hey, send our boats to land behind the fortress and capture it if possible
Realising the danger, you builders erect a wall around Ferris. From the knowledge of building walls they make it big enough and with palisades that can hold longbow shooters. Their lack of more detailed knowledge though makes the gatepost unstable, it will not withstand anymore than a couple of rounds with a ram. However, the odds are much better now than before.
You as the commander of Ferris know that the Svejas will reach Ferris before DL. You take a look at your forces. 105 swordsoldiers, 40 bloodriders, 35 archers and 10 patrolmen.

You decide to improve your defences even more. The walls getting supported by a stronger foundament, making them more solid and the gates are supported by metal bars, making it much more difficult for the opposing force to break them down. You train your soldiers in the logistical works being besieged, making the defense much more efficient.
As you look at their last drill, you smile carefully before you hear a scream from the towerguard. "They are here."
You run up on the wall and look at green hills to the north. You see the Svejas preparing. They are suprised seeing the wall, but look determined for war. The first stage of the battle is to take place.

The Svejas starts their siege moving their army closer to the walls, they believe that they are out of reach from your archers, but they forget that you have longbows. You plow down trough their ranks, and you kill a lot before the Svejas manage to arrange a defense against your arrows. At last they use their shields to move towards to your wall, but they still receive casualties.
When they finally reach the walls, their luck gets a break. Turns out they have some kind of special bows themselves. They call them crossbows and they actually manage to to kill some of your archers on the wall.
You take a look at the result as the Svejas prepare to take over the walls.
Svejas have lost atleast 300 men dead or broken rank. a slaughter that have demoralized them. You have lost 24 of your archers, replacing them with your swordsoldiers that are not so effective, giving you only +2 now in defence.

As the battles goes on you still see no sign of the reinforcement. However the bloodlust amongst your defenders is satisfying. Your swordmen cuts through the Svejas like butter. One by one they fall and only once in a while they get a swing at you. Your soldiers removes the ladders efficiently, increasing their casualties.
At last they retreat to organize themselves. You survived for another day. But the Svejas will not give up.
1430 Svejas - 155 defenders
As you manage to reorganize your defences, you hear the Svejas. They attack again. With time to reorganize their negative moral has been eliminated. You prepare for another attack.

This time Svejas are much more aggressive. Your arrows does little damage, and they are up on the wall easily. They cut your swordsmen down and you realise that you need to fall back. But as you see hope disapears, you hear the sound of someone arriving. In the distance you see your army finally approaching.
The Svejas are confused and the moral falls as they prepare to meet your army on the open field. They retreat from the wall and prepare to fight. However, your archers give them a headache, and decreasing their movement. Your defenders can not join the fight.
Your army consists of your professional soldiers and volunteers that have gotten basic training.

Your bowmen at Ferris gave some minor casualties to the Svejas. However, they could not anticipate the force your Bloodriders envoke. Riding with a feriosity that has never been seen before they cut to the Svejas rank and mops them up. The casualties are immense and they break rank. The battle is over.
Your swordmen capture over 150 of the Svejas while the rest runs back to the pass. When the smoke clears the fields run red with their blood. It will be a long time before they bother you again..
Its impossible to tell, but you calculate that only 300-400 of the Svejas survived. You lost 7 bloodriders and 12 soldiers.

Also, asking to research government for the next turn with the Commander in mind. His victory was preordained by the skies, and by the grace of god he will return and lead as a King, with the council as his advisers. The social pressure leaves the council little choice.
>>44957542
Interrogate, learn everything, from the name of their king to what they make their bread out of. After that they are to become slaves (read indentured servants) for a year, in service to the city as a whole under the power of the council. After this they will be released and helped to return to their homeland, assuming we have not conquered it by then in which case they become free men in our territory.
>>44957567
no, a council in our current fashion is supported by the people, an additional point we have no gods to grant him victory but we do have ancestors to assist us.
>>44957585
It's time to form a Monarchy, rebel scum.
A multitude of rulers is not a good thing. Let there be one ruler, one king.
>>44957601
Except we have no need for a monarchy, we have no problems with corruption or with slow reactions to threats (as demonstrated by this war), we have no divine right to rule as we have no gods and further more you present no reason to change to a monarchy.
>>44957627
Except one ruler is also shit, I am pushing for something like the merchant families of Venice or for a direct representation democracy or we could go with any other number of approaches but not monarchy
As the spoils of victory is getting clear, we find the crossbow in battlefield, we adopt it as a defence weapon.
The battle of Ferris becomes our national epos and the bloodriders are now seen as our forefathers spirit embodied. One of the riders especially is seen as blessed, and gets an epifany that he is destined to lead our people.
Along with the rest of the bloodriders he march back into Destiny Landing and proclaims himself as the forefathers choosen one to lead. The theological council, without any military support, has no option to accept this proclamation. The bloodrider is then coronated as king and the bloodriders as his personal army.
Your civ is now a monarchy
The king decide to put the Svejas to work at the mines as slave labour. However, since our culture have never had any experience with slavery and the slaves are trained soldiers this turns out to be ineffiecient. You lose half of them in riots or escaping.

I must refute the move to a monarchy, there was no formal vote, no poll, merely a discussion that resulted in change for no reason.
Further more the council would have at least held common support among the people and most of the armed forces, it seems unrealistic that NONE of the armed forces supported their own government.
>>44957684
Monarchy is not a evolution of our government, it is a terrible thing to trade a council for a single person whom is perceived as perfect and infallible and therefore unquestionable. We have lowered the quality of our government by this motion and i hope you will see reason
>>44957718
My words are backed by nuclear weapons and I must agree with Leonard Nimoy. With a council there is no clear authority among their squabbling and personal prestige. Someone must stand at the top. The king is surrounded by his advisers, he is chosen by our all knowing ancestors, and has the loyalty of the army. He led us to a flawless victory.
Event!
The announcement of creating a Monarchy is not well received everywhere. As the king inspect his bloodriders, he hears commotion from the great temple he has changed into a kings palace. Some swordsoldiers have rebelled against the king and is now entering the palass. The King sees the council marching along with around 150 soldiers into the halls.
"You have unlawful seized this country, step down!" says one of the councilmembers. The bloodriders react at the same moment. A confrontation is unavoidable.
150 swordmen + 100 bloodriders (without horses)

Indeed, the fools attempt a coup against the lawful king, chosen by the highest authority there is; the ancestors. What's the point of walls if the enemy is already among us, tearing us down? Anarchy will prevail if they're not put down.
>>44957854
I don't follow, the councils roll's last digit is higher than the kings and therefore they win is how I am following it.
Council roll is 8
Kings roll is 0+1 or just 1

Regardless, OP please move to /tg/ rolls. This isn't /pol/ and the board can be very, very slow.
dice+1d100 in options field. First number decides the amount of dices, last number decides the max possible number on the dice. That's usually the mechanism for quest threads here.

That king is not lawful, he is insane, he won a battle and decided that he must be the best representative of the ancestors whom I might add CHOOSE THE COUNCIL TO RULE.
>>44957797
>>44957800
7-1
Too late the king realizes that the council members have smugled archers into the hall through the roof. Bolts from crossbows flies through the air, killing of the bloodriders. The king himself recieves three bolts in the chest. However as the last action ever done, he throws his knife against the council-members. It hits one of them in the middle of the eye, killing him instantly. The only casualty for the council. When the bolts stops all the bloodriders and the kings lies dead.
For the civ this is now known as the "red coronation." The council immidiately disband the bloodriders. With the dispution finally resolved, the country now looks forward to rebuild.

Your wisest men starts to go together to learn about the mysteries of the nature. They find some logical conclusion, and with that they invent mathematics.
The council uses this to make population count and finds out that there are more people in our civilization than previously believed.
Some people that were training to be bloodriders find that their cavalry skills are not able to be used longer. The council then decides to establish the Longriders. A new group of soldiers on horses, however they lack the culture and tradition of the predessor, making them less efficient in battle.

The former. If I was angry I'd be attacking you personally as a poster. It's a game m8. Personally I don't see how Monarchies aren't a natural form of early evolution. Although it's not represented here there would have been clear squabbling in a council. Even in a council there's one that rules over it. The Monarchy quote "Let there be one ruler" is from the civ games, and it's quite accurate I believe.
From there you can evolve to all-powerful guilds, and democracy in time. Don't see how it can come at this stage as we're not there yet.
>>44957949
Mysticism. The belief in the supernatural and attributing it to physical objects (such as amulets or Monoliths or other stone statues). If ancestral worship already counts then move to Polytheism.
>>44957949
It's gonna be funny when we move to space age and we still have 70 svejas slaves.
So in order to avoid a second revolt of that sort, i am going to suggest two things.
First, all civilians will be trained to fight to some degree in order to free up the professional troops from defensive duties, combined with strong walls and good defences we will hold against anything while no having to worry another armed coup.
Secondly we will keep the armed forces small during times of peace, most of the armed forces will be made of reservists (Not to be confused with civilian militia).
This is not to say that these concept can't and won't change in future but this is how a council would react to nearly being destroyed.
>>44957994
>keep army small during peace time
>sudden and unforeseen enemy army appears
>now have to spend multiple turns retraining the army and hope we don't wipe before they finish
>>44957966
Simple, we have the council change from religious to economic like the merchant-rulers of Venice, from that we then eventually alter it to a democracy thanks to a popular family giving the people a representative (or a group of them), from their we slowly have the merchant families fall out of power until all that is left is the council.
>>44957994
That would fuck us up too much against hostile foreign threats. Anarchy can come from the people just as much, and thanks for giving them arms.
>He goes the people weapons
>He thinks they won't use it
>>44958027
If you read my other point I advised a strong defence via creation of a civil militia and use of reservists to bulk out the army while keeping a small active force. This would all be backed up with strong walls and up-scaled siege crossbows mounted on the aforementioned walls.
>>44958028
So... Feudalism?
What I find funny is that it's a bloodrider that got thinking he was the chosen one of the ancestors and not the commander of the guard defending Ferris.
In any case we should promote that fucker. Get him a seat on the council so that the army get a say in the ruling of the nation.
We need to make the day we've won that battle an important day "army/victory day" or something.
>>44958040
Our purpose as a council of the ancestors is to keep our people happy and safe, to advance our people and hopefully never need to send them into a second civil or otherwise war.
>>44958028
But the era you're talking about is Renaissance for that to happen. Before Venice became that, it was Rome, and was ruled by a monarch as well.
One of the blacksmith is experimenting with some iron ore when he discovers that a special process has made it more hard and better. He calls this steel. Soon the rest of civilization starts expermenting, creating some strong weapons like steel sword and steel armor. Your forces are now even better and by the look the weapons and armor from Sveja, maybe the most advanced also.

No, feudalism is different, it is the belief that those whom rule, rule because of the divine, it is also backed by a caste of priests with most of the civilisation being serfs whom are basically slaves with more freedom but are still property of their local lord.
These merchants rule as they have a vested interest in our country being powerful and also because they are the only ones outside of a religious or militaristic role whom early civs would even let rule.

Indeed, which is why monarchy is as natural evolution of government as developing metalworking between stone tools and artillery. The area of Venice was ruled by village elders, then by a monarch, and eventually indeed by merchants and other things you had in mind. There's a certain gap that needs to be filled.
>>44958129

>>44958126
But how to the ancestors watch over us? How do they exist without our bodies? How are we here in the first place? Who created all that is before us? How do these crops grow, what controls these animals? Perhaps we have a benefactor. A creator, who sheperds us and our ancestors as we do sheep.And if you don't believe in them too I will behead you, infidel

The battle of Ferris and the increase of epic poems have developed your culture. Your people believes that they are destined to go towards history together. Your theological council feels that there need a common nominator in your daily life.
From now on it is on our cultural identity that one day we will go back to our homeland and conquer the Empire.
A simple farmer with the name Keer gets a vision that our forefathers is lead by a deity named "The One", an almighty good. He is guided by five gods and five godesses.
The council expands the temple with statues of these deities. Our civilization is more connected now and thoughts of national identity is born, but for now not explored.
Religious houses around our area of influence is build, called forehouses. It is now believed that every man and women is to work towards the goal of reclaiming whats ours.

The need for better housing is apparent. Destiny Landing is crowded. The council decides to make the city better. The inner part of the old walls is restructured and build as a goverment quarter. Infront of the Temple there is now a public square while a new palace for the council is build. It can bee seen from long outside the city. In the house quarters it is now built a sewer system. You do not know enough about city building to install it every house, but public restrooms is now connected to the sewers. In the same way you have now build pipes from the Lifelake. Population goes up.
The Longrides have also experimented with armor for their horses, creating horse-armor, making them more resilient to damage.

Can we send a delegation to talk and make peace with the Svejas?
You decide to know more about the Svejas. You try to interrogate the slaves from the battle a while back.
You promise freedom to the first one to talk, and soon enough one young man step forward. You guide him away from the others and sit down with him. He tells about the country of the Svejas and their capitol Shaitholm on the coast. He never been there but is from a small city south from there.
He tells about a country based on nomadic culture but has lately settled down and started on nationbuilding. The king of Svejas ordered recapture of Ferris. Not because it was important but because it was disrespectful. Sveja people kill to regain their honor if nessecary. When asked about military capasity, the Sveja says that you most likely are technology advanced with regards to them, but that they have at least four times as more people.

You decide to look into ways to improve Husbandry. From before you had sheep farmers and cow pastures. Now you also have pigs. The animals that you seen from the north. You discover Bacon and that makes everyone happy.
You also breed horses, they are now bigger and stronger, and with the armor on them they look frightful. You get constant -1 on opponents morale when your longriders fight.

Seconding this.
Realising the waste of the barter system the council decides to replace it with a currency system based on the copper and small amount of silver coming from the Ferris mines. This makes productive effective and food production goes up.
However, people are starting to leave DL and starting building their own houses around the area. Right now the area under our civilization is disorientated and that can be a problem in the future.

>>44959635
Expand by the ocean to the west. Cement our front and finally use those merchant ships
You decide it is time to expand your civ. You build a road to your eastern outpost. The ruins also provide good coverage and with a little home makeover the first people are ready to move in. You name this settlement New Hope. You scouts also manage to travel north and see that a desert starts at he other side of the mountains.
Soon you catch the attention of some caravan people coming from the east. They call themselves the Afrias. Their country is far east, but they have noticed your civilization, and would gladly start trading with you. Soon New hope becomes a trading hub for the eastern market.

The wise ones understand that it is possible to make more comfortable homes. People rich in coins starts building new houses with more than one floor. Soon, it is more difficult to see the sky, but more people lives better. With this also comes better heating and something else....windows. Although it has been used in mosaic, windows are now able for everyone. Life seems more enjoyable now.

You decide its time to improve your navy. You notice that your sailors still have good maritime culture. However the attackforce from the boats is a weakpoints. One of researcher comes with a liquid bought from the Afrians. They call it liquid fire.
You discover that it actually burns on the water. This is perfect for your boats. After some testing and failing (and lots of aloe vera) your boats are now equipped with liquid flame.
You build three of these boats.

Research Siege weapons
RANDOM EVENT!
The towerguard at Ferris see a convoy approaching. It consists of only a handful riders. Thet are Svejas. They stand outside the city and wants to talk to the leader.
The Sveja says he is here to ask to get his men back from the mines. What is your action?
>>44960250
Invite him and his men for a feast as a gesture of good will, and then release his men.
Send back the Svejans, and try to plant some spys by dressing up some of our more cunning as slaves
>>44960250
send back the svejans

>>44960317
You decide to oblige to the Svejas wish. You invite them in and arrange a feast. At the feast the Sveja chief complains about the beverage and tells about a drink that makes lifes better. You learn the secret of beer.
As you next day starts the release of the svejas, you decide to dress up some of your people as slaves. However, being in the same mines for a very long time they all know each other and only looks strange on you.
Thanks to the stupidity of this, they do not actually draws the conclusion that you tried to put spies among them.
As the slaves prepare to leave, one of them runs out of the convoy and stabs one of your officers, and a slaveguard, in the throat. After subduing the slave your soldiers surround the convoy.
Apparently the Sevjas did not believe that you used them as slaves, just as POW. Letting them go might escalate a conflict later, but keeping them will definately escalate a conflict, but give you time. What will you do?
invite their leader back for another beer to straighten things out, meanwhile, send a scouting party to estimate the size and strength of their civ
>>44960445
Excuse me? They were earning their keep. They expected to be fed and sit on their asses all day? Let the fuckers go.
>>44960445
let them go
>>44960484
>>44960504
You decide to let them go. However when the leader learns about the truth he swears vengeance and spits on the ground. You have one last chance to stop them.
>>44960585
Well, that's not how one accepts a gesture of good will. I'm in favor of killing them, but only if another supports.
if he is swearing vengeance.... let him go, and put some scouts on their travelling party. meanwhile train more cavalry and prepare to mobilise for war
>>44960585
Should we have killed them and put their heads on spike and display them near your fortress for you to see?
You attacked us, both at Ferris and when we sent a scouting party. Both time we would have been happy to discuss from a position of equals. Do you expect that the third time will be the charm?
>>44960658
>>44960659
need a tie breaker
>>44960659

Is he an actual leader, or just a commander of some men they sent on this mission?
any more bright ideas?
>>44960708
He is the leader of the convoy, thats all we known..
>>44960585
"We did not know that you held slavery in such a bad light, for this we apologise, but please don't fight us even more we don't want to have to kill yet more of your people when we can yet gain more from trade. An additional point, the slaving of your people was to last a single year before their release back to your people. A period of indentured work to help make up for lives we lost."
(I do remember us inslaving them but was there not a clause in the post mentioning it about freeing them after a year???)
>>44960682
this
>>44960682
I guess we could muster our force near the pass to show them we mean business in case they try anything funny.
Send explorers to search the southern mountain range in case there is a way through the mountain the Ferrisian don't know about. If there is build a Fortress of our own.
And build up the army.
>>44960728
nope
>>44960708
Probably associated by blood with the ruler, or at least in a position of trust as a captain.

You try to reason with them instead of just letting them go, but they are insulted by what they perceive is demeaning attitude and the leader draws his sword.

Yes, it was the king that enslaved them, but he was killed immidately before anyhting of this could be enforced.

It was stupid of them. Knowing that crossbow was aimed at them at all point. They fall down without anyone of your soldiers even lifting their sword. The convoy leader falls to their death, but his aid manage to put up his knife and carve the eye of the commander of Ferris, making the latter one blind on one eye. This also the only casualty.
The commander curse himself and in his mind he wonders if he could do anything different. The slaves tried to attack you, not forgetting the alllegiance. However the one that actually helped you tell about them looked in horror. He could never go back as he would be killed right away at home. He stares with open eyes on the dead leader.
He turn around the corps and sees the medallion on the dead convoy-leader.
"Oh no."
"What is it?" says the commander.
"He has the amulet of the lion around him. That makes him immune to the law amongst Svejas. They give this only to the nearest family to the emperor. They will come for us, everyone of them will come trough the gate and with only one goal, to eliminate us."

TIME TO BUILD A GREAT WALL, AND MOUNT ARCHERS ALL ALONG IT, AND CROSSBOWS, AND ALSO SIEGE CROSSBOWS.
We will then dig pits in front of it filled with spikes, tunnels that we can collapse after using to assault them from behind along with their supply chain, we will also need to give all our citizens a spear or some shit just to be on the safe side.
>>44961132
Or, just conquer their fortress and make them waste their men on its walls. I doubt they'd expect an attack coming from behind the fortress so send a good portion of the army by sea to attack from Svenja teritory.
Make armor of their style and gain entrance that way, could be done from the Ferris side of the mountain as well
>>44961242
But i want walls, i want us to be the people who have forts the size of cities, i want us to attack by aggressively building defences
>>44961342
>Yo dawg, I heard yo liked walls...
>>44961400
I was there for the design of that place, i never added anything to it though as i look at that i find no way to improve it
>>44961400
>..so we put walls on your walls...
The brown lines in the middle are each a terassed wall, one higher than the previous. The 1st one was 10 metre high or something.
