It's been a while since I've run a thread, so I'm a little rusty. First race to get three votes is chosen, unless things are a bit slow.

Planning to update fairly briskly, don't take too long to answer.

Trolls but only if they live under bridges if not halflings

Shouldn't skaven have a higher tech level, but no diplomacy? Or are we not going with Warhammer Fantasy skaven?

Either way, Skaven for life!

Going For Demons, Desert

Skaven.

Gay skaven.

What if we switched to Minotaurs from Trolls? Both are stronk.

if the conditional vote for trolls under bridges doesn't count then the conditional vote for gay skaven shouldn't count unless we establish right now that they are going to be flaming cocksuckers.
>>
>>25873037
I think you mean won. The guy said only if they live under bridges, and I can't see that working.

Im changing my votes to Insect as well. Seem much more fun.

We are Plaguemaster Bulger the Rotting! We plot beneath Marienburg, and will bring the whole propserous city down with a few well placed rats!

>>
>>25873234
Gronk the Great Devourer
>>
>>25873234
Trolls are generally sort of stupid so our leader would want something short and easy to remember. I imagine Troll language is pretty guttural, and since we're from the mountains I'll go with

Rok Thor
>>
>>25873307
Seconding. He eats enemies as it "grants him powers"
>>
>>25873280
Agreed.
>>
>>25873307
>>25873303
OP likes Big Papa, but I like Gronk. Why not have our actual name be Gronk the Devourer for anyone outside the tribe, and just have Big Papa as a title?
>>
>>25873332
And by the quotes I mean he just thinks it does because he's fairly dumb
>>
Big papa
>>
>>25873354
I like this, and it puts both at three votes.

Gronk, Great Devourer and Big Papa of the mountain Trolls.

If you guys want, come up with a name for the tribe. I'm going to write up the briefing.
>>
>>25873377
>>25873354
>>25873340
>>25873280
That's three for Big Papa, and one for Big Papa AND being known as Gronk the Devourer.
>>
>>25873395
I think we should go by both.
To our tribe members we are big papa, but all outsiders must call us gronk the devourer
>>
>>25873381
We are the Hungry Family. We are always eating. We will shove rocks and dirt in our faces if nothing else is at hand. When we do take time to prepare our food, its always a sentient being. Roasted dwarf, human stew, skaven kebabs, goblin mush, orc beef. We fucking love sentients
>>
>>25873424
Nah... too stereotypical.
>>
>>25873418
Nah. Anyone we're on good terms with, we're Big Papa. From our actual children and tribe, to friendly outsiders, traders, etcetera.

But annoy us and it's Gronk the Devourer time.
>>
>>25873443
Hmm I see big papa as being intelligent... for a troll... and getting all the hot troll women, after all he's not called "big" papa for nothing
>>
What size of Troll are we talking here? D&D 12-foot tall Trolls? 4-foot fit-under-bridge even without bridges? 60-foot tall Troll Hunter trolls?
>>
>>25873280
i support this. and stop recommending fancy elven names please.

did this die?

In the great mountains of Granake Th’ull live the mountain trolls. Possessing incredible regenerative abilities and sheer brute strength, trolls make devastating warriors. However, their physical talents are balanced out by their mental one. Or rather, lack of them. Most leaders are merely willing to spend their lives mating, eating and killing anyone stupid enough to wander north.
But the world is changing, and the trolls are changing with it. The trolls further south are starting to learn human speech, use tools and considering not killing every traveller who passes through their territory.
On the great southern peak, ‘Ead Smasha to the trolls, a troll named Gronk has torn control of his tribe from the previous leader. Since killing and eating the old leader, Gronk has grown bigger and stronger. Convinced this is because the old trolls strength has flowed into him, Gronk has sworn to eat every one of his enemies. Naming himself the ‘The Great Devourer’ and the new Big Papa, he is a troll with brains and ambition.

Choose one and name the tribe.
>A: Hunt (Mountain goats, Goblins and small hominids)

>>25873773
I believe that's actually two for "Cildren of The Mointain" and one for Children of the Mountain.
>>
>>25873789
Actually, Hunting has four votes. Specifically Goblins and small hominids.
>>
>>25873818
I assumed that was a typo. If I'm wrong, then I suppose we can have Cildren of the Mointain
>>
>>25873838
its the same name, typo or not.
if its gonna be made to fit the troll phonetics, then it should only be when trolls talk their own tribe name.
a deformed name in a narrating with correct spelling doesnt make much sense if you ask me.
>>
>>25873838
all bow down for bigg poppa!
yees, bow, down!

Gronk roared to his children that they should go out and bring him food. In the depths of winter, even the trolls feared to roam the mountain. The blizzards could get a troll so lost, they might fall far enough to kill even them. With the coming of spring, the trolls generally went to find food, but Gronk’s battle with the old leader had distracted them. As they knuckled away, Gronk screamed after them. “Bring me sum goblins! De’ze well tasty!”. In the old days, only the Big Papa was allowed to eat the succulent dish that was goblins. Gronk had never tasted it, but the smell of it haunted him to this day.
When the hunting trolls returned, they brought several goats and two dead goblins with them. More importantly, they had news. Further down ‘Ead Smasha, there was a goblin encampment. The Children’s late start to the season had caused the goblins to think the mountain was devoid of trolls.

Will Gronk share the goblins with the tribe, or choose to maintain tradition and keep it for himself?

Choose one as well.

The goblins brought back were dead, sorry for not making it clear.

Capturing goblins is possible.

In the interests of not Meta gaming, maybe you should try. Though it will probably kill them.

i try to never meta-game, sometimes i kill threads though...

the tribe are our children and a good papa must give his children toys.
we should tell them to try to be gentle though, don't wan them to come crying to us when their toys break

and when they break, big poppa will make a combined armor and lunchbox out of them
>>
>>25874138
>>25874125
"Hay you lot, stop playing with your food!"

We should do a large raid on the goblin camp, then capture as many as possible to create a captive slave/livestock population. And then play it off like starting late so the goblins got cocky was our idea to start with. We's dead clever.
>>
>>25874224
Big papa is dead clever it was his idea after all.
>>
Gronk decided to keep the best of both worlds, so to speak. Giving one goblin to the tribe, he devoured the other himself. The meat was less stringy than mountain goat and less rubbery than troll, but not the heavenly meat he had been expecting. But the tribe seemed fantastically grateful for the mouthful of goblin that each member received. Even more welcome, particularly to the young males, was the news that the there were more goblins nearby.
In the dead of night, Gronk lead the tribe down the slopes, telling them in no uncertain terms that they were to be as quiet as possible. Many of them could hardly suppress their blood lust, which exhibited itself in growling and smashing trees. Even Gronk bludgeoning a troll senseless couldn’t seem to calm them. Choosing to substitute stealth for speed, Gronk roared the charge. As they hurtled down the slope, swinging on the knuckles of their long arms, they saw many of the goblins running down the mountain. Some had gathered up weapons, mostly spears and cross bows. Gronk didn’t know what the cross bows were, until the troll next to him howled and clutched at his face. As the troll had been using his arms to propel himself, he tumbled over, taking several others with him. It was obvious to Gronk that stick throwers were dangerous, but letting goblins get away hurt his pride.

Chase the fleeing goblins and let the tribe fight the armed gobbos
Or
Attack the armed goblins and send some of the young trolls after the fleeing ones

(Hint; Only fire or acid will kill a troll, almost everything else can be regenerated from)

RAAAWWWRRLLL!

>>
>>25874318
Kill the fighting goblins, let the smaller, faster trolls run down the fleeing goblins.

Send the younguns to go have fun, then try to capture as many goblins as possible with the smartest of the lot left behind to help us.
>>
>>25874318
>Attack the armed goblins and send some of the young trolls after the fleeing ones

Most likely the fleeing goblins are woman and children, easy pickings
>>
>>25874318
Kill the armed goblins yourself, send the children after the fleeing ones, but tell them to take them alive.
>>
>>25874318
Attack the armed goblins and prioritise the nazty stick throwas and send some of the blood crazed younger trolls after the other goblins

With a bestial howl, Gronk charged the goblins. The noise sent a primal chill through all of them, causing several to drop their weapons and run. However, it shows all of the ones that stand firm who the leader is; it’s Gronk. Near the back of the group, there was a goblin that looked a little different to the others. He wore a red robe and his ears were ragged with piercings. On the right side of his face, some form of tattoo snaked was inked under his skin. Seeing the fearsome bull troll charging them down, he turned his back and muttered an incantation under his breath. A spark of flame appeared, and then guttered out. He cursed, and spoke the incantation again with the same effect, hearing the trolls roar again. They were mere metres away. As the trolls slammed into the goblin line, the tattooed one spoke once more. This time a ball of fire roared into life, and he span around to deploy it. Even as he did, Gronk rose up in front of him, mouth and fists dripping blood. As his bowels emptied themselves, the goblin thrust the artificial fire toward Gronk’s face, high above him. At the same time, Gronk’s fists swung down the judgment of god. The shattered the goblin’s bones and pulped his body, but not before the fire ball connected. Reeling back, the Big Papa screamed in agony. The arcane fire died as quickly as it had appeared, but his face was torn by the brief encounter with the fire. Tumbling backwards, Gronk passed from the realms of consciousness.
Some hours later, the Big Papa awoke. He lay in the cave, his face still searing with pain. He growled in pain, before noticing his surroundings. Quite apart from the abundance of food, there were several dozen live goblins in the corner. There were also several of the stick throwers, somewhat damaged, leaning against the cave wall. In front of him was the body of the fire goblin. With a terrible glee, Gronk devoured the corpse, savouring the meat and the pain in his face. This was the price of victory.

If you want to. I may start bringing in more troll characters quite soon, particularly if another troll tribe is found. When I do (And I will, sooner or later. New troll babies will arrive eventually), players who've been using names can vote to have a character named after them.

>>25875052
Yes but I don't think the goblins don't have the know how or the materials to make almost a bilista type weapon for us.

Best they make something simple but large, this'll make our combat potential larger by a large margin. I say we get humans to make stick throwers for us because they're bigger than goblins so they can easily make them
>>
>>25874938
Research troll weapons, and also take a look at what ever structures the goblins had, some sort of great hall would be nice...
and hold a feast with the dead goblins, and any of the live onesthat are sick + some extras males, we don't need many male ones to breed them

So, it seems we need to review this a little. Most people seem to think research is good, but think that well have troll crossbows in one turn. Some people want to explore, maybe to find more trolls or humies to build greater stick throwers. Others want to worship our great Big Papa!

Choose one of these three.

you could research it, but it will take a while and you will also need to spend some time to collect needed materials.

After some yelling and slapping, Gronk managed to get the ttibe to relate to him the events of the previous night. After he fell, the younger trolls had taken off after the fleeing goblins, slaughtering most and bringing back a few captives. The whole tribe had then gathered round their fallen chief, planning to devour him together. But, to the group’s shock, Gronk was still alived. Convinced he was blessed and had been chosen by ‘Ead smasha, they dragged him back to the cave and left the greatest share of the goblins to him. One of the younger bulls attempted to eat the fire goblin, and had been torn apart and eaten by the tribe. Where before there had been the devotion of underlings, the tribe now followed Gronk like disciples followed a messiah. Many days were spent roaring his name, from the cave mouth and from the top of the mountain. During his recovery, Gronk spent much time with the females.
The roaring made the Children of the mountain feel mightier than ever before, but also attracted Trolls from the mountain to the North. In troll cant, the mountain was named ‘God Eata’. In ancient times, humans had dragged their sacrifices to it’s peak and left them there. When this source of food dried up, the trolls of that mountain turned on the neighbouring tribes. Long years of bloodshed dissuaded them eventually, but they were still known as the most war mongering of the plans. One of them inflicted an injury on one of the Children’s young trolls, and ordered that Gronk come before their chief to be judged. It has been a long time since the last troll war, and their tribe is not much loved.

Choose two.
>A: Hunt (Mountain goats, Goblins and small hominids)

When his strength had been recovered, Gronk himself took to roaring of the mountain top himself. With his tribe’s support, he felt more powerful than ever before. However, even with all his power, he could not reproduce what the fire goblin had done. Gronk didn’t know goblin speak, but found that one of the goblins knew a little troll. He found it hard to believe what it told him, but listened none the less. The goblin spoke of great big camps of stone, like caves without roofs, which housed thousands of goblins, humans and other things Gronk had never heard of before. The little goblin, named Tak-Tak by Gronk, said there were even a few trolls. Most of them were captives, but a few wandered around free. Gronk could hardly imagine a troll living alongside goblins and not capturing or eating them. It was through Tak-Tak that Gronk ordered the goblins to begin manufacturing things for him. The material brought back from the camp was cut and remade into bags and over shoulder straps. The bags were troll sized, and sown with rope. They were strong enough to hold several of the rocks the Children favoured for throwing.
This took many days, days full of shouting and feasting by the trolls and hard work by the goblins. Gronk had also hinted to Tak-Tak that he wished for the goblins to reproduce, causing some disruption in the slaves. Tak-Tak asked Gronk if they could build a small enclosure for themselves inside the cave. Privacy was mostly alien to Gronk, but it seemed important to the goblins.
Many of the younger trolls spent a lot of time following Gronk around, listening to everything he said and watching whatever he did. At first it was annoying, but Gronk soon found their presence a reminder of his power.

>Cont.
>>
>>25876280
Choose whether the goblins are allowed a little privacy, or if this is asking too much. Building it costs no action, but will affect how the slaves see you.

Choose if Tak-Tak should be made chief of the goblins, and whether Gronk should learn the common tongue, or if Tak-Tak should learn more troll.

Choose two.
>A: Hunt/Gather (Mountain goats, Goblins and small hominids/ Wood, Stone)
>B: Worship (The Big Papa)
>C: Scout (N, E, S, W)
>D: Research, via goblin slaves (Troll weapons, Troll technology)
>E: Diplomacy (Specify what/where/how)
>F: War (Specify what/where/how)


>Children of the Mountain
>Big Papa: Gronk the Marked, Great Devourer, Ash eyes and Fire stopper.
>Population: 21 Trolls (3F, 18M)
>Slaves: 36 Goblins (12F, 24M)

D, troll weapons, some clubs and such, just jank out a couple of trees and de-root them.
>>
>>25876292
Yeah build the shed, it'll allow greater loyalty

Guys I think we should team up with the goblins. We don't eat them but we make them our brothers in arms against the other races. We can't always be on the front lines because its is Way WAY hard for us to breed so we fill that niche in by letting the goblins fight for the major battles. Besides they'll build some weapons and become our magic users.

Who thinks this is a good idea?
>>
>>25876376
food>friends
>>
>>25876376
>>25876341 here.
I agree, but i think they need to prove themselves. Eat the weak ones so the strong survive.
>>
>>25876292
How about a temporary privacy screen? Give it to the Goblins with a guard right outside for their breeding, and then remove it aftrrwards. That way, they like us a bit more, but can't scheme.

Tak-tak should be promoted, and Gronk should learn common.

(How much food do we have? if a little, then A.If not, research troll weapons.)

Also, Scout out somewhere. West, perhaps.
>>
>>25876376
I like this idea, but lets take some time, see if they are willing to do so

>>25876388
food is not to be played with, it becomes poison for us
>>25876404

>>25876405
Food is not such a bis issue for trolls, but I'll start noting it down.

>>25876405
The first person not to try and pick both on the language choice. People, you were supposed to choose which to focus on.
>>
>>25876429
>never breed our slaves stronger, they will rebel.
True, though we are trolls. If we eat enough, it will be population control.
>>
>>25876446
arrait then, gronk learn common
>>
>>25876341
Agree with everything apart from taking goblins, also big papa should impregnate our females.
And we need to get better weapons to take over the other tribe.
>>
>>25876459
This
>>25876405
Also this
>>
>>25876459
No, this is a bad ideam trolls are way more stupid than goblins. Tak-Tak can learn 3 languages faster than a troll can learn one
>>
Question for OP.
How long do our trolls/goblins generally live? Also, who becomes chief when Gronk dies?
>>
>>25876494
Agreed. Gronk would just be wasting his time. Tak-Tak can be an interpreter if needed anyway.
>>
>>25876494
valid point, but if we give the goblins our language, we give them an advantage, we can take our time learning it, im in no rush for talking with them
>>
>>25876519
Gronk will never die, kill the blasphemer!
>>
>>25876519
these questions will come more often if we give them our language
>>
>>25876469
Glad to see someone is still thinking aout the other tribe. They're thinking about you...

Also, I may as well mention, all three females are pregnant. The only problem is, it's going to take ages before they give birth. On the plus side, they give birth to trolls, which are near un-killable.

>>25876494
Then you are reliant on Tak-tak for talking to anyone other than trolls. Just saying.

>>25876519
Trolls live for a very long time. They're almost entirely immune from disease and terribly hard to kill. Goblins, on the other hand, live a scant thirty odd years and can die very easily. Infection and disease are big killers for them, much like humans. Trolls don't really feel wither.

>>25876582
Are you saying gronk can't already bash heads? because if you are we might have to arange a demonstration.
>>
>>25876582
It was the common tongue, not goblin speak, that was on offer. This is the language spoken in most major population hubs. It was explained by Tak-Tak that in the big tents with lots of thing in them, everyone speaks that tongue.
>>
>>25876612
Do it
>>
>>25876560

Obtain new Tak-Tak upon his likely quick death. Might as well extend the order to him teaching a younger Goblin trollish as well. The Chieftain of our Goblin slaves will always be the translator or something like that. If none is provided we eat them all.
>>
>>25876493
I still think this is the way to go
>>
So, there seems to be consensus that Tak-Tak be made chief of the slaves. I like this>>25876649 which allows for many Tak-Taks. On the other hand, learning a language takes time, so don't kill off the current Tak-Tak too soon.

The vote has sung towards allowing privacy for the goblins, just barely. This >>25876405 says they should be temporary, and only for breeding. Thoughts?

There's a quite a few people saying scout East or west, with others saying gather resources or worship. Decision?
>>
>>25876693
Yes big papa should learn to speak the common language
Also I think apart of the worship of big papa should be the belief that all trolls are his children.
>>
>>25876718
For breeding is fine i guess. Just make sure that they are actually doing the do.
Worship, always worship.
>>
>>25876718
Temporary, weave some branches into a screen, we can use it to cover cave entrance afterward to keep shit weather out. Please research some clubs, just from trees

>>25876718

also give the goblins a certain degree of privact, but make sure they don't sneak in anything to make weapons.

In 4X games there is always a trade off between early and late growth. Early growth happens by taking territory and stuff; late growth happens by research and population growth. We have a research penalty and abyssal population growth so we will have to conquer with our intrinsic combat bonuses before the other races get too powerful for us. In the late game we will probably need allies.

Other races, or other groups? Not all races are marshalled under on banner, or in one nation.

Clubs and diplomacy, we've already got a cult. (Which we should try to convert the other clan to, so our clan can get swole.)

The only other race with as bad population growth as us is demons, so both apply.

Inb4 we fail horribly at making wood clubs

With might clubs and friends, Big Papa can surely take all of the mountain! Maybe even the hills beyond.

How much do we know about the mountain? The lands around it?

We accidentally make laser guns

We don't make them

The goblins do

That we use as clubs. Shiny, sparkly, burning clubs.

We ogryns now?

The further north you go, the worse it gets. Cold even in the summer, the far north is deadly even to trolls. We don't know much about the east or west. Strange people come from the south, like the goblins and human travellers that come this way sometimes.

Directly north is a peak named 'God Eata' where another tribe lives (named in the update, incoming) and they have ordered that Gronk come and be judged.
>>
>>25877233
Gronk should go. once they see gronk they will kneel before him
>>
>>25877303
Should we take Tak-Tak?
I'm not so sure about leaving the leader of the goblins behind.
>>
>>25877364
Sure.
>>
When he told that there would be privacy screens erected for breeding, Tak-Tak sagged in relief. He was less thrilled when told that he would be teaching Gronk how to speak the common tongue, but wasn’t stupid enough to let it show. He was also both surprised and pleased when Gronk told him he was chief. Within ordinary goblin society, he had been a lowly scribe and translator. He had learned trollish as a pastime, not ever thinking it would come in useful. But now it had caused him to attain the dominant rank over all the goblins in the cave. Not bad for an ink fingered little weed.
It was when the young trolls were following him on a trip to the mountain top, that Gronk saw the one who had been injured. Though the wound had long since healed, it sparked Gronk’s memory. It struck him that he had been summoned by the ‘Rock Eatas’, the trolls who lived on the mountain north of here. Not only had he been summoned, but in a dominant way. They had called him there to be ‘judged’. The Eatas were known for war and violence, not wisdom. Gronk knew when someone was asserting their superiority, and he wouldn’t have it. Gronk was the chosen! Gronk was the marked! He would not submit. In his place, he sent Dargalf. While not very bright, Dargalf was big and strong. Not as strong as Gronk – of course – but strong enough to represent the tribe. With him, he sent a dozen goblins.
Gronk and the bull trolls were mightily pleased with their bags. It was like having an extra arm to carry the rocks in. Gronk had seen the goblin spears, and ordered Tak-Tak to havesome of them produced. When they arrived, they were a little disappointing. They were little more than tree trunks with sharpened ends. They didn’t split troll skin much better than troll claws. Tak-Tak, pressed against a wall and scared for his life, said he was sure they could be made better with some rock.

Dargulf and the goblins will be away until next turn. They cannot perform actions. To research clubs/spears, stone is required. Gathering is a separate action.

Gronk can now spend the turn learning the common tongue. Otherwise, he will join in on the actions chosen. This does not affect how many can be taken, but may yield bonuses or penalties for his presence. Learning common speak will also incur bonuses and penalties.

Choose two.
>A: Hunt/Gather (Mountain goats, Goblins and small hominids/ Wood, Stone)
>B: Worship (The Big Papa)
>C: Scout (N, E, S, W)
>D: Research, via goblin slaves (Troll weapons, Troll technology)
>E: Diplomacy (Specify what/where/how)
>F: War (Specify what/where/how)

>Children of the Mountain
>Big Papa: Gronk the Marked, Great Devourer, Ash eyes and Fire stopper.
>Population: 21 Trolls (3F, 18M)
>Slaves: 36 Goblins (12F, 24M)
>Troll Technology: Rock Bags, Primitive clubs
>Goblin Technology: Stick throwers, spears
>Resources: None
>Food: Average, plentiful if the slaves are also on the menu
>>
>>25877417
Gronk should learn.
Everyone else holds an orgy to worship gronk, only pregnant female trolls are allowed to participate in these, as only gronk is allowed to have children.
>>
>>25877417
A Gather goats, alive so we have some sustainable food source, if not for us then for the goblins.
A Gather stone

Have Gronk learn the lingo
>>
>>25877417
Scout south

>>25877417
A. Hunt goats
A. Gather wood for clubs
>>
>>25877417
Gather goats
Scout south
>>
>>25877417
Every troll ought to have a club bigger than a goblin! Have our slaves get to work on that. Research it!

Have a troll, someone we trust, like a favorite son, take a few goblins and go have a look to the south. No killing anything that talks, and stay off any roads they find, but follow them and look for towns. I want to know who lives in this southern place. Put that down as scouting
>>
>>25877417
Have Gronk learn, while the others gather stone and wood.

(Thanks for the fun thread, OP!)
>>
Looks like the main votes are hunting for goats, and scouting south.

We can have an orgy with the three female trolls without having to spend an action right? Gotta keep up our title as Papa
>>
This thread has already reached bump limit, btw.

I love it when you worship Big Papa
swing ya clubs through the air, if yous a true slaya
I love it when you worship Big Papa
to puny little humies thinkin' arrows go through me.

They are pregnent. But sure i guess
How many month/days/weeks is each turn OP
>>
>>25877582
Certainly, it'll be listed. But they're all pregnant already, so it won't help get more trolls.

>>25877592
What exactly is the bump limit? I though we still had some space.

>>25877535
I like the idea.

VOTE FOR THE NAME OF THE FAVOURED SON.
>>
>>25877624
Samantha.
>>
>>25877638
Not Blunkit? Your choice I suppose.
>>
>>25877624
Moruk the Cunnin'

Gordnadik
>>
>>25877624
300 posts is the bump limit on /tg/
>>
>>25877651
I thought it'd be a tad conceited to ask to be the favoured son.

...Plus, a troll named Samantha would be magical.
>>
>>25877706
Then we're a while past it. We still have time before this thread dies though.

>>25877681

Both pretty good, not sure about >>25877638

Need a majority ruling.

Go with Moruk then

Moruk da cunnin' it is then.

Seems as good as anything.

New thread?

Shouldn't we be setting up a new thread?

Just wait and see. Big update coming.

Over the following days, Gronk sent his tribe out to gather food and wood. The trolls scoured ‘Ead smasha for the stringy mountain goats that provided the Children with most of their food. Many were brought back and gathered in the far corner of the cave. Although terrified by the trolls, they were easily calmed by the goblins. They were penned in by the stacks of wood that littered the cave, all brought in from the mountain. It was soon discovered that, not only did they provide meat, the goats could be milked. No troll was able to do it, but the small, nimble goblins could. Using a cauldron brought with them from the wreckage of their camp, they gathered up and served Gronk the produce of several days milking. All trolls have an instinctive desire to eat and drink everything, knowing that there is little that their powerful stomachs cannot handle. So it was that Gronk chugged back the cauldron quite happily, and pronounced the liquid to his liking. The goblins were congratulated and told to produce more.
While the tribe searched the mountain, Gronk sat for long hours with Tak-Tak and a young bull troll named Moruk. Gronk had determined that Moruk would act as his second, as he had an ideal mixture of smarts and strength, though not enough of either to threaten Gronk. After some days of training, Gronk came to decision. He needed to know more of the world to the south. He told Moruk that he was to go south with five goblins and see what he could. He was also told not to eat anything that could talk, at least not until he’d heard what it had to say. With his smattering of common and cunning use of sign language, as well as the five goblin’s smattering of troll, they could communicate with some articulacy.

>Cont.
>>
>>25878338
It was three days after Moruk left that disaster struck. One of the trolls that had been out on gathering duty had not yet returned, which was not that unusual. Trolls sometimes took their time in returning, particularly if they fell a long way. The falls would rarely kill them, but it would take them some time to find their way back up. It had been assumed that this troll had chased a goat without looking where he was going and had taken a bit of a tumble.
The tribe, or what was left at the cave, was therefore surprised when the troll hurled himself into the cave mouth covered in blood. Deep wounds had been gouged into his sides, while his own claws showed signs of recent combat. When he recovered his breath enough to speak, he grunted and growled to Gronk that the Skull Eatas were coming. They had kill Dargulf and the goblins, and had caught him near the northern foot of the mountain. They had been about to kill him too, but he claimed his faith in Gronk had granted him the strength to escape their claws. He had run all the way back to the cave, giving his injuries no time to heal. They were less than a day behind him, with at least two dozen trolls. With Moruk away, Dargulf dead, and this one injured, things were not looking good. It was at this time all eyes turned to Gronk. This battle would either raise him, or destroy him. The same was true for the Children of the mountain.

And with that, I must leave you. It’s late where I am and I have work tomorrow. Tune in in about eighteen hours for the next thread, when Gronk’s fate, and the fate of the civilisation, will be decided.

>Children of the Mountain
>Big Papa: Gronk the Marked, Great Devourer, and Fire stopper.
>Population: 20 Trolls (3F, 17M)
>Slaves: 24 Goblins (6F, 18M)
>Troll Technology: Rock Bags, Primitive clubs
>Goblin Technology: Stick throwers, spears
>Resources: Wood, Goats (Goats produce meat and milk every turn)
>Food: Plentiful, abundant if the slaves are also on the menu
>>
>>25878359
Worship the mountain and begin to gather arms with the goblins by our side. Its gonna be a big battle tomorrow
>>
>>25878398
No we worship gronk
Worship gronk and feast in order to be strong for the coming battle tell the goblins we'll grant them some freedoms if they fight by our side.
If possible gronk should personally challenge the leader of out enemy to one on one combat, if he declines his tribe will see him for the weakling he is.
>>
>>25878359
I'll try to be back. Thanks a million, OP. Are there any specific mechanics needed to run these, or good improv? I could try a new thread.
>>
>>25878471
Or just* good improv
>>
>>25878359
Its been awesome mate, thanks! Hope to see you guys tomorrow, as I'm off aswell!
>>
>>25878471
Use the OP's picture, along with wit, common sence and a very creative mind. FYI there is no suchs thing as too many Civ threads
>>
>>25878471
>>25878487
Good to know, see you tomorrow. I try to do improv, with a little bit of mechanics. I made up the map, and we haven't had much combat. I'll work out how to run that later.

>>25878493
Great, see you then!
>>
>>25878523
I'll give it a go in just a few minutes, though I make no promises of quality.

>>25878537
Thanks! I'll begin in a few minutes.
>>
Before I leave, does anyone know how to archive a thread?
>>
>>25878568
See you there i guess.
>>
>>25878619
I haven't got a clue
Do you tweet when a new thread is up?
>>
>>25878657
If you mean post it here, then yes.
>>
>>25878729
Thread is now archived, so it can be accessed later. Hurrah!
>>
>>25878729
ah okay, I meant using twitter, some guys who regular GM have a twitter account for it
>>
>>25878749
Awesome!

>>25878568
How is it comming along?
>>
>>25878729
When are you gonna post it?

All the civ quests I've been in OP just stopped making them at the 1st or 2nd thread. I hope this lasts longer
>>
>>25878772
I said I would post the next thread in about 18 hours. Also, if you guys could vote on the thread here, that would help. It's very near the top. If it gets voted down, it'll be removed.

There is one way we can ensure victory against the Rock Eaters. We must use FIRE. But we shall not wield it, no. The goblins will hold the fire for us, and throw it at the rock eaters, and burn and hurt them before we smash them with some clubs! Everyone knows a troll can heal, but not when burnt by fire!

The only problem is making sure the goblins can't use fire to rebel
