    Old Thread>>>> http://suptg.thisisnotatrueending.com/archive/6796202/

    You are Captain Roarke: A charismatic retired British Officer, you have led men all around the world, most famously in British India. You do this not for personal gain but for the sense of adventure. You are famously bad with managing supplies, but your men love you and will fight for you until the end.

    Combat Skill (How well your character personally does in combat situations): Medium
    Supply Requisition (How often you get reinforcements and supplies): Medium
    Charisma (How much your men like you): Extremely High
    Economic Management (How well you can manage your settlement’s economy): Low

    Industrial Mandate-(more weird tech and worker support, heavy tax)

    10 RP remains, you have 140 workers, 95 rifles, 20 mercenaries, 50 experts available. 5 rifles got captured at the end of the colony phase. Your colony work is progressing well with the following in place:

    1st ring- vehicle depot, fortified main barracks, fortified main hq,4 watchtowers, mortar pit, gatling trucks in vehicle depot, mine, heavy fortified trenches.

    2nd ring- additional barracks, 2 farms, 1 well, 1 brick sawmill, trade depot, wood trenches,

    3rd ring- new barracks, armory with foundry, light trenches

    Additional Resources and info: Winston led 20 med away to track the French Mining Company troops, he will return in 2 days. you have 2 crates of dynamite available and the super important road is 70 % done. ORDERS?

    Your men form up in ranks in the trenches and open fire, destroying hundreds of the natives, but they just keep on coming. The gatlings are clattering away, destroying a fairly large chunk. dynamite bombs have been rigged for the gliders as an emergency option, and the mortar is pounding away.

    Until they arrive, completion and defense of the road should be highest order of business. Spke heads along the road to warn off the death tribals.

    The raid shall proceed, a pre-dawn attack, methinks. But do we let Winston lead it? Or have him guard the fort and we lead personally? I'm inclinded to the latter.
    the goal for the raid is to kill, burn, and capture workers. if possible we want to totally raze the village and leave nothing behind.

    thats what I'm talking about anon! You reinforce the third line of defenses, and send out scouts. You currently have 15 RP. Would you like to pay 5 RP for a special surprise with the royal convoy (which arrives in 4 days)? ORDERS?

    The convoys sent by your employer are guarded by steam tanks, that's why they are so slow. The royal convoys have royal grenadier guards. Do you pay for the bonus for the royal convoy? ORDERS?
    >> Anonymous 11/21/09(Sat)18:46 No.6807367
    yes ay the bonus

    Aye on the royal surprise!
    Interrogation results, please? Also, if these tribals know anything useful about this city, I'd like to know it as well.
    Prepare an Expeditionary Force consisting of:
    Mercenaries(20, yes?)
    Platoon of 25 hand picked men
    Antitank rifles
    Gatling trucks.
    Are the gliders manned? if so, we should be using them to scout the city's rough layout while we wait for the convoy, I'm assuming the death tribals are in the jungle and wont be easily spotted from the air.

    we need to make sure the Crown knows there's a French steam tank in the area. Hint dtrongly we would like one as well. Level the playing field, what what?
    If we did actually get grenadiers they should join our Expeditionary Force as well. Then leave for the City.

    You dont know the language of the natives, but they keep pointing north and trying to run west. Stupid natives. Anyways, you might want to wait for the royal shipment +bonus (10 RP remaining) before you set out on an expedition. any ORDERS for the settlement?

    We need to give some thoguht to getting lumber operations going, chaps, or expanding existing ones. We're surrounded by excellent teak, mahogany, who knows?
    Also, is there enough dynamie to get our mine running? If not, requisition it with priority for next shipment. That's hard coin for the coffers.

    You use the wonderful brick sawmill that your predecessor anon built to trade with the convoy. They give you an anti tank rifle, a crate of dynamite (you now have enough to reactivate the mine, confirm y/n?) 10 royal grenadiers, and also your bonus is 10 native refugees who know the land and are super farmers and alright scouts. They also know the language. ORDERS?

    Add Genadiers to expeditionary force, give Winston a field promotion and leave him in command of the camp in our absence, with orders to use our dynamite and get that mine open. Keys to a viable colony are an open trade route and something to trade.
    Native friends? Awesome! Take 2 with us to translate and let the others start with some farming.
    Ourselves, Grenadiers, AT Rifles, and the gatling trucks should make a good away force and leave a sufficient garrison. Arrange an emergency flare signal if possible so we can know if the base is attacked , then set out to the City.

    Okay, you lead the convoy to go into the city. You bring 2 natives, yourself, Godfried the scribe, 20 Rifles, 10 mercs, 10 royal grens, a gatling truck, and the AT rifle. CRISIS mode until you return, as you cant manage the settlement while you are gone.

    You approach the entrance to the downward city, built into what seems like a giant whole in the earth. There are serpent symbols in green on the walls (painted recently) and Death tribe symbols that your natives tell you are warnings. Do you proceed inwards? the truck cant come and will stay outside with 5 rifles.

    The city seems abandoned, but your natives are on edge. The death tribe markings have disappeared, its all snakes now. REMINDER: you left the gatling at the entrance. You reach a giant stone hall that ends in a giant staircase downwards into darkness. ORDERS?

    OP, this is personal opinion, but you reply too often, not leaving enough time for orders to be posted.

    This leads to you posting in response to orders that people don't even know have been issued, and by the time they post their suggestions, they're already behind, which means you base the decisions on one or two posts, which just keeps the cycle going.
