It Begins. REMEMBER TO POST YOUR MONEY WHEN YOU ROLL OR I FUCK YOU.

The Kingdom of Cascadia opens its borders to all nations. We are not a isolated state and wish to expand our friendships with all. That being said we will not look at any military or economic aggression against our nation or our allies idly. We will also not stand by as the world around us is plundered and pillaged unnecessarily. We are a nation of law and order, not of savages and barbarians.

So, who will stand with Cascadia openly? We wish to find trading partners soon to create an economy that will benefit all involved!

The Kingdom of Cascadia believes its first duty is to protect the law that binds nature and with it create order and unity in the entire nation. To do this the Kingdom does a number of things:

Moneys: 100
Income: 10/turn

1. Begin promoting fishing in what is named "Cascadia Lake" off of Portland to invigorate local markets.
2. Set up a Trade Route with Atlur to build up our economy!
3. Raise an Army to defend Cascadia and the nature around it!
4. Promote our agriculture with the focus on creating a self-sustain supply of wheats and soy within Cascadia!

Monies: 100 (+10 every turn)

3. Recruit a regiment of soldiers.
4. Attempt to improve the infrastructure of the kingdom, so the common man may benefit.

Consul Atlur sits in his office, deciding the goals of the Republic in the coming months. First and foremost on the mind of Atlurarria's people must be that principle which the nation was founded on, trade. Great fleets of ships will be needed.

Next on the agenda must be the city's defenses! A regiment of soldiers is direly needed to protect the walls.

Then of course the people are important, and they must live comfortable, happy lives to be the most productive they can be, for the good of the Republic.

Consul Atlur sends these decrees to the senate for approval, who after due consideration stamp it with the seal of approval and send it out to every corner of the Kingdom, though at the moment that's not a great feat.

On the steps of the Royal Stronghold in Geneva, a lowly squire read out the Kings decree for the nation. Work was to be done, lest the nation slip behind.

"Let it be decreed by the King of Switzerland, King Henri Guisan IV the following:

Firstly that our Navy is inadequate. New ship designs are to be drafted immediately, with an emphasis being made on smaller and faster ships that can be made more easily, and outmaneuver enemy vessels.

Secondly, continuing with the modernization of the Navy, that troops be trained in inter-ship combat, and are to be kept aboard all Swiss naval vessels. Swiss Marine Defense Troops are to be trained and taught in the following:
Combat with an emphasis in the usage of the crossbow in ranged combat, taught to have a keen eye for the leaders of the enemy vessel, and pick them off.
Close combat utilizing the saber, they should make an attempt to break out of close combat as quickly as possible and retreat to a better ranged fighting position. Close combat is, ideally only to be used when boarding an enemy vessel after most resistance has been dispatched.
The are also to be taught in general sailing abilities so that they do not become useless when combat is not occurring.

Thirdly, that an improvement to the arquebus be made. By adding a trigger mechanism, we should be able to imboost reliability of the weapon, ensuring that each shot actually gets fired as well as improving the safety of the user. Such weapons are for now, experimental, and we should best stick to the crossbow for general ranged combat troops.

Fourthly and finally that a new crossbow be developed for frontline troops. It should be fed through a hopper from the top, to produce a higher rate of fire than common crossbows of the day.

Would Freeholdings or Mercanto be interested in setting up trade routes between our great nations?

I could see it as only being beneficial to all of us, to have such a strong trade league in the southeastern portion of this continent. No one would be able to question our status as the wealthiest nations of the world, and we could exert absolute control over the seas and trade in them!

>>17183963

I would happily trade with you, my people desire foreign goods and building relations between our nations is important to national security

How about us, Belka? Your neighbors would be happy to trade in goods for our people to the enrichment of all.

Etheria:
The land is rich in woodland and fish. Your people eat well and there is plenty of wood to burn.

The national day was a rather esteemed celebration within the Federation, perhaps below the celebration of Winter's Veil at the Solstice of the season, but still overall significant. Ceremonial Guardsmen were marching in the streets as the bright faces of Belkans young and old came to see the processions. Great displays celebrating the culture of the nation could be seen all around the Federation's territories, but the center of celebrations were located in Directus.

Fireworks and cheer followed the primary parade route of the Palace Guard, Cabinet, and Chancellors. It was most certainly a good day to live.

The consul deems the needs of the Republic to still primarily be concerned with trade, however after discovering the lack of money making it difficult to recruit a proper fleet. At least with the trade routes it will bump up the income enough that it will be able to support a navy. Even if it would have a growth of zero.

A close second on the priorities list is to find something to, well, trade. Valuable minerals would make trade much more lucrative as, hopefully, it would attract more trade partners. Not to mention if it was something useful, the Republic could always hold back some to keep for itself and improve it's own lot in life.

Then of course it is probably good that every man dedicate some time to exercises of the mind. It is so taxing to measure out gunpowder into a pistol and tamp in the ball and all the rest of it. How nice would it be if it was all contained in a simple cartridge one could load and fire? Everything would be infinitely easier.

Action 3: It is my desire to see my subjects grow wise and productive, and accordingly I am commanding that a great library in Carpath be built, housing books from all across the continent, that any Carpathian may read and better himself with.
Action 4: I look upon our fields, and I see a system that could be bettered. They lie fallow for part of the year, untouched because the soil needs time to regenerate. I ask our eldest farmers and our most intelligent to think up a system that is less wasteful of time, for while the Rock, Sea and Sun are timeless and ever-present, our own lifespans are short, as but the blink of an eye on this land.

''My fellow Azguardians the time for us to move forward has come! Our country, our home, the thing we love so much has stood unrealized for far too long. Too long has its treasures and resources sat unused and ill attended! Well today that misdeed comes to an end! On this day I declare that we shall rise as one nation and develop this humble nation into one of greatness for our people. We will mine the earth and use its riches for our economy and defense both in application and research! We shall build fleets of wood and steel and explore and colonize the new world! And as for those people that we may find, if they be friends then we shall welcome them to the table of brotherhood so that we may all share in the achievements of man, but if they be foes who threaten our very way of life and existence then we shall crush them, only so that our people will continue to flourish in a world of peace not hatred. So that is why I ask of you now my fellow countrymen,
Rise!
Rise and bring glory to our land so that all of this world's people can enjoy the fruits of man's labor and live free and happy as all men should!

''We are off!'' said the captain as the ship pulled up its anchor and hoisted its sails for the unknown east.

The crowd cheered as their newly constructed fleet sailed off into the horizon.

Cascadia! I would invite you to trade with Carpath, our merchants are always looking for new things to please the populace and enrich themselves!

Name: Almatár Khmatate
Location center of the map, preferably near a lake or water source. (aquifer)
City name: Asshukh
Government: Monarchy, ruled by the Khmat who must sacrifice himself to the Sun God Arágh after 30 years of rule, allowing his successor to take the throne.

Desired color: Gold or tan
Additional fluff: Asshukh was founded by a group of sun-worshippers in the 1400s, the Khmatate system was developed after it was noted that the king would get decrepit and unfit to rule past the age of 50 or so, and so the system kept the monarchy fresh and sane. Meanwhile the King lives in incredible Luxury in the Palace at Asshukh, the Mulugh án Shakhna

The Kingdom of Cascadian welcome Carpathians in their nation to create a great and powerful economic force!

Excellent! We'll see to it that our own caravans are sent out and yours have plenty to trade for and feel welcomed.

Off in the distance ships bearing a tan flag slowly approach onto the coast and quickly make anchor among a crowd of curious, but defensive people.

Quickly however, this defensiveness fades as the men aboard the ships debark carrying goods, gifts, and good will.

They are welcomed graciously and their proposals and stories are listened to with great interest.

After days of negotiations and trade, they load back into their ships returning back to their homeland bearing goods and news of their successful trade envoy to the land of Azguard.

MErcanto:
The training is near to paying off.
Several famous smiths get into town and begine setting up shop, this will make tehcnolgy upgrades slightly esier.

Nations name: The Ironborn Domains
Location of First City and its name: New Pyke, anywhere with water.
Government: Monarchy--Euron Greyjoy leads the Iron fleet.
Desired color: Gray, black, with yellow highlights.
Addition fluff: Euron Greyjoy lead the ironborn in a huge exodus from their old homeland, in a search for adventure, wealth and to rebuild a lost cause. They've landed in..whatever land this is, and now they look to expand.

Nations name: Metroskya


Location of First City and its name: Veedeehnkay; Somewhere


Government: Republic; run by an elected council from each of the Burrows.


Desired color: Dark Yellow


Addition fluff: A nation of people most comfortable underground, avoiding the light of the sun if at all possible. They see the sun as a spiteful, angry God as their homelands are plagued by drought. When they are not scorched under the blazing sun of their home, they live in underground cities- meticulously constructed- they thrive in darkness and enclosed spaces. By candlelight, they read and go about their daily chores. With a newly found form of bioluminescent fungi, the people of Metroskya are experiencing an expansion in all areas of life. They send robed farmers up to the surface to tend whatever crops they can grow, and many gardens are kept by the denizens of the underground. Teams of men are sent out by night to patrol and keep guard at many checkpoints and towers built on the surface. The surface itself holds no particular fear, rather it is only the blazing Sun that keeps them inside the earth. From a lack of large, open spaces to enjoy and grow in, the Metroskya breeds many scientists and thinkers rather than warriors and travelers. A nation of engineers and scientists lay just below the surface.

Reports of the bravest of Metroskyan denizens, the Hunters who scout the surface, have shown that there may be others who dwell on the surface. Reports to be analyzed and meticulously combed over, indeed.

Some begin to fear for the future, as these reports may force the Metroskya out of hiding and into the light of the hated sun and it's inhospitable landscape. But above all, progress. Perhaps meeting these new nations will allow the denizens of the underground to advance?

Location: Preferably in the middle of the map somewhere.

Technically it's run by religious factions who are supposed to form a voting quorum to decide most issues, but given recent panic due to the rise of strong states in the area and territorial ambitions rising in the state, a the government has been reformed and power has largely been handed to a dictator preaching world spanning ambitions.

A ten man council of nobility and priests decide the fate of a nation in crumbling castles more than likely older than the nation they now serve. The people, while still superstitious in their beliefs are otherwise rather festive liking nothing more than to celebrate the feast of the most obscure Gods and spirits, as long as it means a break from their otherwise toilsome work as seagoing merchants, fishermen, or tradesman in the city of Merovingia.

3 and 4. Research cartridges for muskets and pistols.

With the discovery of the most valuable Iron, and coal too. With these materials low grade steel can be produced, either that or high quality Iron. Maybe they'll find some coke while they mine out the Coal? Anything was possible for the Republic, at this point.

The discovery of truly fine lumber should increase their ship's durability and quality. Alturarria will truly have the greatest navy in the land! If steel is produced, they could even plate the bottoms of ships to make them more durable against cannon fire.

It is also once again undertaken that the minds of Alturarria come together to find some way to manufacture a cheap and easy to use cartridge for firearms.

In a rare public appearance, the King of Switzerland himself appears before the people of Geneva.

"People of Switzerland! I call, and you answer. While you may be different, separated by age, gender, canton, class and creed, you must not forget that bond which brings you all together. You must not forget that you are Swiss. The Swiss people have an ambition that most others lack. I know. I can see it in your eyes. Truly, a King could ask for no finer subjects. I would sooner die than lead another people.

However, I fear for this continent. Men such as we do not belong in an area of such potential turmoil, and it is for this reason that I believe we must set sail. I have made arrangements for our fleet to leave in an expedition for uncharted lands. Our crafts are laiden down with supplies and we do not expect to soon see their return. Salute the brave men going to do what we have not the courage to, as our survival truly rests in their hands."

My countrymen, men and women, Changes of Government have occurred frequently in history, and in the history of our people. It is certain, however, that never was a change of Government attended with such far-reaching results as that eight years ago. At that time the situation of the People was desperate. We were called upon to take over the leadership of the nation at a moment when it did not seem to develop towards a great rise. We were given power in circumstances of the greatest conceivable pressure, the pressure of the knowledge that, by itself, everything was lost, and that, in the eyes of the noblest minds, this represented a last attempt, while in the eyes of evil-wishers it should condemn us to final failure. Unless the Nation could be saved, by a miracle, the situation was bound to end in disaster. On account of its form of government then, this State could certainly not be the cause of the war waged by the democracies against the country as it was then. New Faustia, considered as a political factor in the world, was much more of a cause, for after centuries of disruption and ensuing weakness, the tribes and states had at last combined into a new State which naturally introduced a new element into the so-called Balance of Power, an element which was regarded as an alien body by others

Even more potent, perhaps was dislike of the People as an economic factor. After we had tried for centuries to remedy our economic distress by letting people gradually starve or forcing them to emigrate, the increasing consolidation of the, political power of the State gave rise to a development of economic power. We began to export commodities rather than men, thereby securing the necessary markets in the world, a process, natural and just from our point of view, but others regarded it as encroachment into their most sacred domains. We then stand upon the precipice of war. We stand at the precipice of a Holy War. But know this my countryman: we shall not falter, we cannot falter. Never Again! Never again will we be forced from our homelands! Never again will we pay tribute to foreign powers! Never again will we be forced to watch as our women are defiled and our treasuries plundered! We enter a new era, a thousand year era in which our children shall inherit the world and all it's spoils!

On the piers of Merovingia's pier the city's priests gave blessings to the fisherman as they go prepared to make their voyages out into the blue. Soon these sailors would return, along with the merchants burdened with oddities of far away, to fill the stalls of the city market. As per usual a man in simple soldier's dress watched casually from his perch atop one of the wooden beams supporting the piers. He made notes and ink sketches of this and that as the fishermen went about their business. It all seemed to be of ships in the docks and strange little mechanisms supposedly to tell direction by. He would as always, flip the small pad (Marked #3 on its front cover) closed and empty the small ink bottle he had brought into the ocean. What he was doing the fishermen never knew, if they ever noticed him in the first place, but surely he had some business watching them as he did. But then again he was from the Directorate by that uniform, and every answer you got from that lot was as good as spoiled meat to you. So, back to work it was, and the soldier eventually headed off his own way with the rising sun. The next day routine would repeat itself.

One last attempt. The fleet will be headed East.

rolled 6, 1, 11, 9 = 27

>>17185815

1) continue research into who our ancestors sacrificed themselves to
2) send our fleet back to midland for next turns invasion!
3) Construct a network of bobsled trade routes after all ice is slippery eh maker?
4) research into better armour for troops

The south shall rise again!

rolled 15, 13, 19, 11 = 58

The invaders have been beaten back! Now we must prepare for the next attack.
1. Recruit an army.
2-4. Begin creating defensive fortifications around the city. We shall create walls of stone and trenches of earth. We shall create killing zones and strongpoints. Above all, we shall defeat them.

rolled 13, 5, 16, 10 = 44

Total Income: +13
Gilders: 223

We have become quite learned as a people! Very good, very prestigious! However it is with a heavy heart that I must decree the necessity that our learnings be devoted to matters of war. Violence has erupted in the south of the continent, and should it spread I will not let my people be defenseless! Develop a system of walls around Carpath such that the people may retreat, should we be attacked!

We must also forge stronger iron and steel, our smithies have yet to turn out satisfactorily strong stuff! Continue the development of improved forging!

While I will not mobilize an army in peacetime, I would be an idiot to not guide our thinkers toward improving our battle doctrine. They are to devise a treatise on tactics based on modern military thinking for the perusal of our generals and nobility!

That all in mind, we need to remember who we fight for. We must improve our production of trade goods. Build a factory to this end!

rolled 8, 15, 2, 7 = 32

1-4 survey for precious gems/gold,silver,platinum

>trusting belka

I lurk a lot of these threads. allying her has only ever worked out for like, 1 person per game, and even then I'm pretty sure she intended to backstab them if the game went long enough.

>>17185815

Our military men are shaping up to be a force to be reckoned with. This is good news for Beldain, as the war in the south expands.

Funds: 199 (+6) = 205

1. Reorganize our army into a marine corps well-suited for amphibious operations.
2. Work some more on improving our industry. Better production means a better Dominion.
3. Expansion of lumber harvesting continues. Zug zug!
4. Build a temple to the Ocean in Aldur. The Ocean has given much to us. Perhaps we should give the people a place to give thanks and prayers to the Ocean.

>>17185937

Almost worked out for me in EB3, except I fucked up my endgame.

>>17185937

That's just hurtful.

And for the record there are two players that I held in high enough regard to not betray.

rolled 13, 16, 5, 9 = 43

"This does not auger well. There is no precedent, no proper ceremony way of keeping to the guidance the divines set out for us in the days before we even knew the sea."

"It may well fall under any prayer for those who find themselves lost Fourth Director. Only, its rather intentional in this particular instance. Prayers and ceremonies the merchants use sailing to ports they know somewhat better could also ease the fears of many, and pay our dues."

"And what of the feared monsters and wrathful sirens calling men to their deaths in the blue Third Director? I can pray for their protection but we do not know what is beyond those waters."

"Then we will find out, I already have a willing crew."

"Gods help you."

1-3 Outfit an expedition into the eastern blue looking for fishing grounds and what may well be assumed to be mythic lands beyond.
4 Search the inland for tribes or land suitable for settlement to the west.

Celebrations will be had next session. If I can still name them before you go I'll go with something simple. How does Oured Islands sound?

Leading nation of the World:

Size: N/A

Military Strength: Marcanto

Naval Dominance: Faustia

Financial Power: Belka

Technology: Belka

Overall: Belka

>>17186193

As expected~!

>>17186193

Looks like I'm gunning to be this game's Britain/Russia hybrid if I can up my size next time.

Also, let's RP some more eh ladies and gents?

>>17186170
The Oured islands are the first foothold of man outside their god given lands.

>>17186203
Agreed. Now that we've had a war things should get better.

>>17186199
Fuck off.

>>17186219

Prrrrroblem, Neighbor~?

will there eventually be openings for more countries?

>>17186233
No problem. Just Rush Hour.

rolled 13, 16, 9, 5 = 43

>>17186273

I have a feeling a slot may open up *Grin*

I may be more or less off for the night but I would at least like to offer an open port for trade if anyone would so love to open relations come next session. Otherwise, look forward to seeing my ships sail into the deepest waters the Gods and weather will allow until we reach the edge.

>>17186286
>>17186273
in the theme of exploration, perhaps some alien foreign power of the new world?

THE NEXT GAME IS TO BE HAD TODAY, MONDAY THE 12TH AT 8 PM EST!

>>17186285

...

Is this some sort of sick foreign humor?

>>17186273
Yes. I could handle a few more.

Meanwhile, in New Faustia...

The High Lord sits sipping wine at the opera. The wine is a white wine, as His box is quiet as all of his guests are intent upon the performance on stage: a rendition of the flight of the Kurumi people from their homeland is being put on by a director with a completely new take on the whole business. A man comes up outside of the booth and after a few words with the chief of security slips him a note. He promptly slips into the booth and hands it wordlessly to the High Lord. The man quickly scans the paper, then nods wordlessly.

"If it must be done, do it quickly."

A nod, and the High Lord turns back to his opera as though he hadn't just ordered the opposition to his government slandered or strong-armed into exile.

>>17186335
would a country of robots be possible like zero-two given the setting? anything but necessary, but still interesting.

>>17186380

You're gonna need to wait for me to fuck up and cause a cybernetic revolt before that's likely possible.

Out of curiosity, and since I think the question is relevant to everyone, is social technology such as military organization and training easier than, harder than, or only as difficult as tech advancement?

Also I presume things don't have to go the same way tech wise they did historically, but that route is favored with some quirks?

>Out of curiosity, and since I think the question is relevant to everyone, is social technology such as military organization and training easier than, harder than, or only as difficult as tech advancement?

Military related tech is generally easier.

>Also I presume things don't have to go the same way tech wise they did historically, but that route is favored with some quirks?

Exactly

Mandalore was not a patient man.

They had been out hunting mythosaurs for three weeks time; and they had yet to even catch a whiff of the beasts! He lay down among the veshok trees and thought about his people back home in Keldabe, waiting for their leader to return triumphant; the head of a slain beast in tow.

He sat up and sighed.

Maybe tomorrow would be the day....

>>17186501

Then prepare for a Battle Harem of young adult and teenaged Janissaries wearing plate armor! Mwuhahahahahaha! Complete with anime references.

>>17186532

Swine.
