Nation name: The Bounteous Atriarchy of Iso'esh
Capital name: Palatius
Prefered Colour: Orange
Race: Azure elves, the one true original elven race (citation needed) characterised by their luminous blue eyes and hypersocial behaviour. Commonly seen forming pointlessly intricate social constructs, the Azure Elves as a race are shameless extroverts who all pledge alliegience to the Crown Atriarch who has the unenviable job of having to deal with his or her subjects until inevitably dying of stress. Biologically speaking the azure are shorter than the human average, thin and long lived, the usual.
Starting actions (15)
1-4: Two gold mines, two gemstone mines.
The first Azure elves to settle this land stumbled across unbelievable riches and then all collectively decided to never leave, settling in the rivered valley where their capital one day arose. This blind luck paved the way for future generations of haughtiness to come.
5-7: Market, Carpenter, Woodcutter
As the elves expanded ever outwards they assembled the bare basics for sustainable living, means to produce their needs and a place to trade them.
8-10: Farms
The Azure are not picky eaters, eating meat and vegetables with equal fervor.
11: Expand once
Running out of space, they eventually had to expand beyond their riverstead capital and into the open of the island
12-13: Universities. Places of both innovation and education, there is no more a chaotic hub of interaction than the byzantine labyrinth of an elven university.
14: Temple: A formally religious institution praising the elven Creator God, but in effect serves more as a nexus of social activity where the nobles rub shoulders with the priestesses to oil the gears of court intrigue
15: Cultural monument
The azure elves love splashing around in water, their great bathhouses encourage and support this function. There is little else to discuss.

Key for the map:
Squares identify mines, lines connect to adjacent resources. R is Religion building, C is Cultural building
Circles are all farms
Triangles are universities
Scales are a market
X is the capital city
Axe icon is a woodcutters
Badly drawn spiky box icon is carpenters

Nation name: Convocation of Tempestuous Scions
Capital name: Wellspring
Preferred Colour: Grey
Race (Was said that the Delphrels were originally two races. One of the air and one of the water, but the life leyline allowed the merge of both. Robbing them of their distinct traits, but connected them more deeply to the magic of the land. Humanoid and possesses smooth rubbery skin and downy feather like hair. Their features are somewhat malleable depending on what school of magic they practice. +25% magic)
Starting actions (4 wind ley line, 4 water leyline, 4 life ley line, 1 copper mine, 1 tin mine, 1 gem mine)
Starting position (hill next to lake)

Considering themselves both the people of both air and sea the Delphrels practice a strange form of storm magic (Which is in itself a hybrid of water+air) due to the connection of the life leyline. Their magic is wild and seems to possess almost a will of its own while it still manifests. This can be further exacerbated by drawing upon their own life or the life of those they can access to further empower the living storm. It is an unsubtle magic only suited for immediate grand gestures, but perhaps there are secrets to be unlocked for the future.

Their government is comprised of magepriests who study the mysteries of the storm and gather together to further refine dogma and theory. Their ultimate goal being to drench the lands in a perpetual torrent of life that will see the world and by proxy themselves grow stronger.

Nation name: The Aurigan Republic

Capital name: Hofkiinkofingram (translates into Home in the Clouds)
Preferred Colour: Gold

Race: The Auriga are a race of long-lived (the oldest record is 1000 years) warm-blooded reptiles. female Aurigan carries an egg and incubates the egg internally until a month before it hatches when a female will "give birth". eggs are often stored together as clutches of 10-25 and will spend their first 10 years of life living in the nursery with their clutch mates. The Auriga are different from most races in the fact that they will drastically change their body plan as they age and develop through three stages. during the first stage (1-50 years) the Auriga is small (around crotch height) and has a preference for quadrupedalism (although they still can still walk on two legs). During the second stage (51-300) the Aurigan is entirely bipedal and they are larger and wider than the typical human. during the third stage, the Auriga becomes more draconic and develops a scaley membrane (not dissimilar to bat wings) for flight. they also have two fingers as they fuse together into 3. A third stage Aurigan also grows vastly in size usually being between 10-15 feet tall.

Nation name: Clans of Guknilo
Capital name: Konolo
Preffered Colour: Jade turquoise
Race: Guknil (Golems)
The Guknil are a race of on average 12 foot tall Golems. They can be made of almost any solid material from stone to even living wood. However most are made of Clay or Brick as it is easy to repair. They are animated by their unusual life force.

Extra Lore:
The Guknil subsist off of a specific kind of fruit called "Tishi" which grows from the Tishi plant, which itself grows best in hot and dry climates to warmer temperate ones. This plant is very time consuming to cultivate compared to its subsistance output, as that fruit is some of the only capable of refreshing the energy of a Guknil's body. Due to this Guknil employ herds of specially bred "Hiknil" (horses, donkeys or oxen) who till their fields. Guknil also refer to non-golems as "Hiknil", believing themselves to be a higher form of life compared to them. This is the cultural zietgiest of Guknilo.
Their reproduction is one in which one Guknil preforms a ritual everyday for several years. This ritual imbues an inanimate body with a part of the parent's life force. Creating a new Guknil. Child Guknil hold immense respect and loyalty for their ancesters, who can go back many generations due to how Guknil are essentially immortal. Only rich Guknil can live an incredible ammount of time, for the older a Guknil gets the more costly Tishi it requires.

Nation name: Li Ulodrac Min Arlet Adlan (The Principality of Arlet Adlan)

10-11 Fishing/farms
12 Copper mine

15 Lumberyard
Starting position (marking it on the map directly would be best): The central area.

Extra lore: The Kanomaki are a race of people that claim to have been created by the goddess of the sea and death, Kantoraci, and blessed by their spouse Sawu, god of Beauty and Life. They resemble the Makinegovi, a great and terrible shark like creature in the depths of the sea, and man. While not as large as the former, they are quite large compared to other mortal races, and capable of breathing on land or in water. They have a humanoid form that allows them to utilize tools, yet they still are far from slow in the water, with legs and tail made for working as one when under the waves for speed. Further, they have an excellent sense of smell in water and to a lesser extent above it. Yet all this came at a cost, for with all their strength they require far more food than any other, and their diet consists of meat, and only meat. Also of note is there is a sort of a caste system. All Kanomaki are Nivoa at birth and remain such for the rest of their lives unless they do a particular ritual. One that is reserved for their leaders and their heroes. This ritual, called Lagavina, is common knowledge to all of them, but it requires the heart of a Makinegovi. A jaw of a Konlat-Argus (More commonly known as a False whale). A horn from a Lantiargus (Large narwhal like creature with two horns). Bone from a Malivan-Argus (sadistic creature the size of an orca covered in armored bonelike plates). The tentacle of a Mindovic (Think Kracken). And the eyes of a Varac (Think Roc). This ritual is one that takes place over a year, at specific points of time, and the end results in the Nivoa becoming a Vinarila. Twice the size of a Nivoa, twice their strength, twice their beauty and twice their appetite. Yet most importantly the Vinarila are also capable of something the other's were not. For while every Nivoa could theoretically do the Lagavina ritual, provided they were capable of getting the ingredients and passing the trials that were intrinsically a part of it, the Vinarila were the only ones capable of actually using any other kind of magic, something they were quite strong in. Most who do become Vinarila find themselves becoming an adept Kotiva-Zantic, or Cycles Breaker. Capable of utilizing magic tied to their creator goddess and her spouse, breaking the cycle of life and death.

I also have life magic marked down. If that's too broad would Alchemy be a suitable choice for a magic type? Alchemy is probably more on target for what I'm looking for anyway, so I'll switch both of my leylines to Alchemy. Do leylines link automatically or do I need to spend an action on it?

Hello, while usually joining the discord would not be mandatory to participate in the game there is sadly a banned player who openly stated he will join this game even though I banned him solely to mess with me and another player he dislikes.

Therefor it would be really good if you could join the discord.

Nation name: Immelreich
Capital name: Wolkenburg
Preffered colour: White
Race: Ziegenvolk (man: Ziegenmann, woman: Ziegenfrau). 10% Diplo bonus. Short and broad people with soft and warm hair, tending toward paler colours, black hair is seen as an omen. They are well adapted to the cold highlands and treacherous mountains, thanks to their hair and low centre of mass. Ziegenmänner grow goatlike horns as they mature, though fighting with these horns is mostly a ceremonial practice, as hands are so much more efficient. Ziegenfrauen don't grow horns, as that would be weird, but they tend to have very soft hair, and it is an ancient tradition for them to shear most of their hair when they get a child, from which they create their baby's first set of clothes. Some Ziegenfrauen instead just shear a little bit each month, getting enough hair for the clothes without looking too shaven. The Ziegenvolk are known for their opera-like song, which is said to have caused an army of a thousand raiders to flee when fifty Ziegenvolk sang in unison so strongly that it deafened any raider that entered their valley.

Starting actions (15):
1: Expansion. Immelreich was founded by the confederation of a vast array of lands, from rich mountains to fertile valleys.
2: Copper. The mountains of Immelreich are rich in copper, which enables the rapid expansion of the Ziegenvolk.
3-5: The 3 copper mines of Wolkenburg. The capital of Immelreich is Wolkenburg, thanks to it's vast mineral riches, giving it a lot of power.
6: Eastern Highlands Forge. Smelts copper into tools for the farmers and weapons for the Immelreich soldiers.

Generally you know your neighbours, but obviously on’t know people on the other end of the world. Next update thursday post your actions by wednesday. The update is a bit dry, but it is turn 0 so not much storydriven has happened.

>>5432274
The Principality of Haakan has risen it is a huge nation. It is somewhat overstretched governing it’s barren territory from a few grand cities. It’s a nation with a big population and decent food production. The nation only is really lacking on the diplomatic and magic front.

>>5432296 Volotilia Regnum
Those of the Volotilia Regnum are grand mages and good soldiers, though possibly too far detached from earthly matter having their gaze always pointing to the sky. The nation is a great dyiplomatic power and decently wealthy, but severely lacking in food and population.

>>5432336
Being the largest nation of the Great Northern isle the Lashyr have been looking forward to an isolated and peacule existence yet many powers seek to encroach on what is rightfully theirs driven on by the magical wealth of the island.

The Leshyr are a wealthy people with an abundance of food, yet underdeveloped industrially. Lacking ways to untilise their abundant mineral and wood stockpiles.

>>5432351
The Azure elves feel more like men of gold, breeding as fast as the lesser races and swimming in gems and gold. The world’s wealthiest nation by far and one of the largest by population one would be amiss thinking of them as weak due to their small size.

The elves are not lacking in anything, but land.

>>5432360
The Tempestous scions are children of the living storm, mages through and trough. Their singleminded pursuit of magic has made them the world’s most powerful mages by far, but has left them lacking in every other regard. Their population, presence, food and production are close to nonexistent. The lack of food likely is the most pressing problem.

>>5432466
A nation set in the deep swamp set around plant magic. While currently primitive their mindset is unusually progressive with their funding of research. They are not lacking in minerals and could do harvesting some of the expensive tropical wood around them or getting some production to process the bog iron they harvest… though the technology to process bog iron is still far from there. Boying bronze from their neighbours might be the only thing that can be done if tools or weapons are urgently needed.

The frogmen sprouted from the lilies filled with curiosity. Curiosity about the world and it’s secrets turning in their pursuits towards magic and science with singleminded dedication other racesm ight consider insane. Yet who knows if this is not the wisest path?

As of now the Children of the Lily are most lacking in food and diplomatic weight.

>>5432508 The Sea people’s
Their core land being a barren rock has not helped the sea people become a great economic power in any way. Their food, their land and their women have certainly made them the best sailors in the world.

The sea people are only really lacking in diplomatic presence, but as of now their military power also does not live up to their ambitions.

>>5432513 Aurigan Republic
On the isle which spews flames is the home of the ancient dragons and their children. Yet this holy land has been infringed on by foreigners, while on the other hand it has grown crowded in it’s own right making the dragons turn their eqyes towards the east.

The Augirians are great mages and decently wealthy. Food is not a problem, but also not present in great quantities. The diplomatic weight and population of the nation are slightly lacking.

>>5432545 Clans of Guknilo
The Guknilo while abbandoned by their creators certainly are still a work of art. Even left alone they built one of the most powerful nations around. Wealthy in minerals, in money, in their lifegiving fruit and powerful militarily.

All the great golems lack in is presence on the diplomatic stage and smithies to process their minerals wealth with into something useful.

The sharks boast the potential for the most powerful navy of the world, even though currently weed production is lacking to meet demand. Having tamed the magic of harnessing the dead the sharks possibly descended from another world have no never fear a lack of troops.

The shark people took a risky approach colonising the shores of 3 different islands making the center of their nation the sea. We’ll see if this risky approach pays off. Currently all they lack is diplomatic presence.

>>5432964 The Many
The hivemind rises greedily hoarding it’s mycomancy. Yet it is a kind being wishing to invite other’s into itself. The hivemind possesses lots of food and decent amounts of presence and magic. It lacks in wortly things such as wealth, resources and production.

>>5432968 Immelreich
Ouf ot the depths of the volcanic mountains the sheeple arose. Wandering from the barren mountains to the steady meadows the population exploded with food flowing in. With a solid economy and more deposits of magic nearby the sheep of the deep have a bright future ahead as long as they do not neglect their diplomacy.

The sheeple are lacking in dplomatic presence and scholarly pursuits.


>>5432974 Fey
The fey are not lacking in anything, true masters of none. They rule over a grand feral yet empty land. Even if they are somewhat boxed in by other nations on all sides, large swaths of already possessed land don’t necessitate much expansion.

>>5433058 The Yukalagh
The orkish exiles (exiled by who) chose to forge a new path not one of the sword and brute, but one of magic and the sail. The Orks only lack in production and presence being okay in all other disciplines. Being located next to large swatch of empty land they carry much potential to grow massive from humble beginnings.

1. Taxation. The lifeblood of the Principality, the duty of the commoner and the only way to get things done within Hakkani lands. Our fields are bountiful, and therein lies the primary source of funding across the lands. The largest issue in this is our as-of-yet unstreamlined approach to tax collection and distribution. If we are to make sure that all pay their share and aren't over/undercharged, an effective bureaucracy must be paramount for documentation and archiving such details.
(Establish central bureaucracy for tax harvesting purposes)

2. While not naturally blessed with an arcane layline within the borders of the Principality, we do know of one. A single point where the arcane energies of the dead congregate. If we are to put such a dread thing to any good use, then it must be within our means to do so. We have a bountiful population after all, and there would be any number of those within the cities willing to take some sponsorship to go settle the region. Any one with magical aptitude is also an immediate include for the expedition. After this, though, it is likely the Principality will not expand again for some time...

Things had gone satisfactory for the Kanomaki. While things were still early in the principality's history, there was plenty in the way of prosperity ongoing. Plenty of food from both land and sea was provided, lumber provided plenty, and metals from the earth were rich and extracted extensively. Yet, even so things needed to be improved. The Vinarila Ulodi and Ulodin and other nobility needed yet more to improve their budding civilization. While some thought of utilizing their given right to amass a tireless workforce, there was other things that could be done to improve workforce. Significantly more than merely raising the dead. And this was simply that of tools. Tools allowed everything to be more effective. Building, weapon making, tool making itself, farming, mining. Everything. All that was needed was for the resources to be properly utilized. However, there was one other thing that would be focused on. That of cloth. While clothing was oft made of more water proof materials, hemp was a useful crop for bulk cloth that was actually capable of catching wind and providing for ships the ability to be powered not only by oar and current, but by wind. And while some lesser people might claim ships will never do what simply swimming is capable of, those are fools. For much like the wagon can easily transport goods on land, the ship can transport far more in bulk in the natural home of the Kanomaki. Something especially important for certain goods which are best left dry, or which would do poorly in the depths.

>Action One. Create a forge next to the capital

>Action Two. Create a hemp plantation for cloth. (Ideally by one of the rivers in the north.

Looking for a new place to plant a home, explorers from the Island capitol sail to the Southwest coasts to claim and settle. If the explorers come across the Leyline they are to settle to the left of it, otherwise they are to settle on the river.

With a land purchase agreed upon, the northern lands of the Herin Desh peninsula are secured.

The northern lands are henceforth to be named the Atriarchy of Jubil’esh, ruled by a subordinate princess elected from among the wealthy landowners responsible for organising the transaction.

(3 wealth and 2 diplo paid to certify the agreement)

Action 1 and 2: Cities

The city of Grandis is established at the river, a rivertide settlement that marks the regional capital of northern Herin Desh.

In a surprising turn from their usual warlike ways, a envoy has arrived aboard a ship, a warship, but flying a flag of peace, whatever that closest word in the Sherdens language is. they offer a Non Aggression pact, and infer that they are more than open to any further diplomatic offers from the dragon kin. they also showed a distinct interest in resource goods over silver and gold

Action1:

In a surprise to no one, the Lilalkin have forgotten to feed themselves. Mushroom stalks were drawn, and the unlucky frog folk found themselves in the incredibly important and completely thankless job of cultivating food for the rest of their people, taking advantage of fertile land along the river along with floating pods in the ocean that transform the Concord's waste into swarms of large maggots, a staple source of protein.

In a more pleasant turn of events for the Lilalkin involved the College of Biomantic Studies has had a dramatic breakthrough. Utilizing no small amount of magic and seed bones dug from the earth biomancers have brought ancient species back from the grave. Massive birds, terrifying lizards, and sea monsters alike have been brought to life, carefully sculpted with biomancy and mind magic to be gentle and protective...of their amphibian creators at least.

Woe unto you, King Undrun! Woe unto the scattered tribes of Leshyr! Our land is rich, yet the people are ignorant; hording what they cut and dig for their own ill-use rather then bartering elsewhere and serving the common good. The shamans cry at the winds like the howling of their beast-packs, prowling at the borders; but what answers do they have for the common-folk to hear? It is ever the burden of the noble man to steer the flock in these times, to espy those with talent to raise above the pack. And thus we will do, to bring this land the glories that man should reap.

>Action 1: Build a Forge
Copper, this substance from the ground, is strange and sometimes green. And yet flame can shape this stone in intensity and through impact. With ore and fire and patience we can forge tools more useful then those of bare stone.

>Action 2: Build a Carpenter.
Wood! Our lands are thick with forest unending, a tide of trees from which to carve and cut. Let us make a profession of those who best cut and scrape timber into shape, and grow them into masters of these crafts through years of trial and toil.

(If carpenters get adjacency to woodcutters, perhaps place it south of the fort so it'll get that + protection?)

Not all souls that pass through our lands will do so with the intent to become Many. Be their stays temporary or permanent, we will need places they can stay. We will develop a new spell, one with which we can grow sturdy structures out of mycelial flesh. This way we can house visitors, or residents, any perhaps even create infrastructure for other needs.(We grow buildings)

>Create spell: Replicate Mind.
Death has few weaknesses, but one of it's greatest ones is redundancy. By replicating the mind we can better preserve those in our care.

All hail Kaiser Diederich Kupferohr von Wolkenburg, the mighty and the wise.
The election of the new Kaiser had majority support among the elector princes, his prowess in battle and in governance made him a common sense choice, only opposed by those he had bested in battle. Thus his authority is strong, right out gate, and our future sure to be bright. The first thing he did in power, was to have a feast and festival, with fine swine and sweet mead, with all the lords invited. A first step for any new Kaiser is to get to know his subjects, as it is through them he will get things done.

Action 1: Build Temple in the valley northeast of Wolkenburg.
Kaiser Diederich gets word of heresy in the lowlands, the breadbasket of our mighty Immelreich, but the Kaiser isn't angry, he expected this. Long has Immelreich been without a proper church, instead relying on more and more distant local shrines, of course heresy happens when you leave the people to govern themselves. And so Diederich commissions the building of a grand church in the northern lowlands, which will inspire the Ziegenvolk to worship the correct gods and keep them away from degeneracy.

Action 2: Colony in the forests to the north.
While the Kaiser pushes out heresy from the north, a wave of migration happens, up further north, into the forests. Not all of these are heretics, many are simply looking for new lands to settle in, as the population in the north is getting high. The heretics themselves aren't bad people, they just differ in faith and are too stubborn to simply convert. These people settle the forests, with plenty of trees for houses and animals to eat, they will make their living here, building up the lands like their ancestors did when building up the northern lowlands.

1. Expand in the red tiles. It was a tumultuous council session that year. With so many nations near their borders and dealings quickly made it became apparent that they needed to secure themselves so that any neighbors do not overreach. The mountain pass was immediately made the focus as it can form the literal backbone of the nation. Its borders the most obvious and natural distinguishing mark. To the southwest they expanded to meet the golems and ensure limits on any potential encroachment. Avoiding the steppe as it was considered currently too unpleasantly dry and bare. This attitude was similarly held in the north, but multiple stormchasers were able to confirm the existence of a new leypoint near their planned expansion! Even with inferior land the scions made it a point to try to incorporate this leyline into their plans and further their already prodigious might.

2. orange is a farm with adjacencies which are also all river adjacent. While the scions quickly came to an agreement with the Jubilee regarding food it would be foolish to rely entirely on imports for their population. Fortunately they have determined an ideal place to grow their crops. Currently their main crop is rice, but perhaps in the future with the hybrid magic of biomancy and plant they can make a dazzling variety of super crops.

The Atriarchy, being notorious elves, favour their bow above other weapons, having been skilled in their production since time immemorial.

The Volonauts were cast down from paradise eons ago, scorned by their god Inanis, for he was jealous of their perfection. Exiled to the mortal world, the Volonauts were no longer everlasting, limited by the mortality of man. Unable to make their way back to the heavens, they have resigned themselves to create their own paradise on the plane of mortals.

>Action 1: Expansion (North East, along the coastline)
The chunks of floating earth which we will build our own paradise upon all seem to be located a relatively short distance off of the coast. Without knowing how these formations came to be, the best assumption to find more is to assume all of these floating havens follow this trend.

>Action 2: Farm
Along the coastline is fertile land, created by the rivers flowing down the mountain ranges. If the collective intends to colonize the islands, an excess of food is a necessity.

The cast down are coming to therms with their earthly existence Setting up a grand farming complex producing 5,5 food in the fertile river valley and turning it’s eye to the north seeing how much political and economic power could be gained from controlling the only entrance to the <name it something> sea.

The lands to the north are inhabited by fey-humans. Many disjointed tribes, mostly content with a lazy existance as their fey blood makes the bountiful forrests provide food for them. One could worry that the land containing the relatives of a neighbouring nation could spur said nation on to lay claims to the land. The hard choice needs to be made whether we exterminate those pesky natives and pretend they never were there or go the path of assimilation. Your expansion will be 19 tiles when it completes 2 more turns until completion.

Having sensed magic as of yet unclaimed driven by the noble pursuit of knowledge or who knows maybe lust for power? The children of the stom follow the wind north and as if guided by it they meet cousins long lost. The origin of their species had been prophesied to be in the living storm yet those living around the great blackness had dried greuish skin and their elders were more ancient than any of yours. Their ways were primitive as they were lead by ancient shamans clad in skulls.
The colonists having interacted with the natives had learned that one of the major tribes in the east had been engaged in war against a tribe of humans. You can choose to aid them or to ignore the ancient tribal feuds and instead assimilate the locals into your own power structure. You will colonise 12 tiles.
A grand farm is built to feed the nation producing 9 food in form of swamp rice from the swamp, bananas from the jungle and olives from the hills.

>>5437217
North of Wolkenburg a grand temple rised. In the wet plains it overlooks a river bestleed between the mountains it could easily be overlooked if it was not made with that in mind. As it’s roof is adorned with mirrors made from polished, copper, tin, silver and bronze producing an unmissable glow to those above and illuminating the mountains above it to those looking from the coast. (would be nice if you said what your gods are rather than leaving it at ‘correct gods’)
Pushing relentlessly northwards in the mountains the colonists find men of stone. Their bodies fashined like statues to resemble that of squat men. They seem to possess a great aptitude for mining and an aggressive demonour. Further in the forrest you find more of them living there many broken appart, shrunken or withered. Deprived of stone they consume these exiles have turned out shriveled and are maybe not starving, but withering as they cannot repair their bodies. Up to you if you wish to assimilate or exterminate these beings.

The Lay dot is being truly exploited to it's fullest as fungal magic begins to blossom and the many’s tendrils expand

>>5436986
A great fertility spell is created increasing food yields and population growth by 25%. May bountiful fertility befall the slime race as they do their nasty slime things.

A plantation for so called pink-ginseg root is created. An interesting plant which is said to greatly boost vitality, stamina and awaken the urge to reproduce in those consuming it. it has, but one flaw. It is extremely bitter and foul-smelling, making all but the most desperate wish to consume it. (as all plantation produce you need to process it with production to get the effect. So you’d have to build a Forge/Carpenter and assign ‘Aphorodisiac’ as the good being produced and then you will produce 1 aphrodisiac per Pink Ginseng and production you can then choose how many you want to produce or sell or something)

Pink Giseng can only be farmed in plains. Your plantation produces 11,5 Pink Ginseng currently.

>>5436714
The Leshyr have begun the forgin of metal and the crafting of wood. A forge and carpenter are built within the dense forests of the nation. You have 4 production now so feel free to produce. (ask me if you;re unsure how production works most players seem to not get it)

Finaly a farm is built freeing up the free time of the Frogfolk somewhat as no longer all day needs to be spent spitting out their tongue to scoop up the mushroom spores filling the air.
And with their bellies full and free time guaranteed many of the clumsy creatures waddle their way out of the water.

Some go digging in the fossil mine, others bring wh
at they found to the Biomancer mages and lastly the mages have a hayday with what was brought.

Spell: Ancient Flyer - -5 magic, -1 fossil - An ancient flying creature is revived using biomancy and taed using mind magic. The Pterosaur once more takes to the skies. An impressive 7 meter tall beast it first needs to enter a gallop on all fours before it takes flight. once in the air though it can stay up there for however long it wishes and even dive underwater for short periods.

+4 armies, +40% military power

> You get a technology

>>5436645
possibly inspired by their neighbours the Sea people’s set up a university to further their military tactics and shipbuilding capabilities, another woodcutter is built to up production.

With that you pump out 10 ships consuming 2 production and 2 wood and reaching the maximum your ports can handle and using up all your wood. Clearly more conquests or tythes are necessary.

> You get a technology

>>5436624
The Elves being a thrifty sort purchase the land of off the Feymen for a price which for all intents and purposes is a literal scam… but if they agreed to do it their fault. (3 wealth transferred to fey, 3 pop transferred from fey to you 2 diplo tied up in the deal)

A tiny price to pay for territorial integrity. Rapidly centers of administration are set up in the new land making it a semi-autonomous region rather than a subject. The elves now rule over the local Feymen from grand cities…. making many think that life might just be even easier under these new rulers.

As primitive bows and arrows made only of wood are produced the elves enhance their military somehwat. Gaining a +20% military power boost afterall a sharpened stick while better than nothing is a weapon even savages would have access to. (-2 production and -2 wood)

In bad news due to extensive farming a piece of plain has turned into barren shrubland, luckily the food supply of the nation is still safe, even with the new Feyman arrivals.

>>5436354
Exploring south west your nation finds a subject of the old orcs. goblins, living in a state unbecoming of them. In freedom doing whatever their feral brians desired of them. Their colours varied, from grey to green to blue. As goblins tend to be they teeter on the border between sapient or not. Will we exterminate them as pests or have a small return to the old days taking them as subjects?

Having seen these filthy creatures few respectable mages wish to enter that land. It’s filthy and reminiscent of a painful past, some of course make the sacrifice for the sake of a new font of magic. Will we let this continue as is or will drastic measures need to be taken?
(you can make the colony a penal-colony to counteract the low colonial enthusiasm malice you rolled)

Your expansion will as stands for now include 7 tiles.

>>5436285
The Sarmatian settlers make their way north into unexplored maiden land. The wilderness is lush and untouched by any civilised or half civilised race. This makes exploration harder, but also ensures all those living in the new land will be those coming from your own. This gives some of the higher ups an idea, let’s say the land to private prospectors this is sure to encourage settlment! (settle land normally or sell it to prospectors)

The discovery of this new land is met with much enthusiasm and a colonial rush from your population follows. the untamed nature and potential for great wealth makes the afventorous youth eager to go.

You colonise 11 tiles.

A woodcutter is set up chopping down 5 tropical wood and some normal wood from the swamp. Certainly a great aide to your economy.

Forge and Hemp plantation are created. hemp is certainly a resource with many potential uses, recreational, industrial, medical.

You currently produce 5 hemp, it can only be grown in moderate forests.

>>5435968
A forge is created giving 3 production. The dragonfolk of your nation are enthusiastic to colonize far away land. Takin inspiration from the Sea people they set out on a voyage to far away land to colonize and find a new home.

They have wandered far from home yet to their surprise they find kin. other Drakobolds line their land. Their scales are tick and rocky and unlike them they can roll up in balls as juveniles. Their wings also seem small and atrophied unfit for flying, yet undoubtedly they are your kin.

>>5435799
Going to the south the golems encounter more of their kin. Living in the wild among spirit fruit meadows. They seem to be the sons of an ancestor as of yet unknown to you at war with another tribe of your race due to an ancestral grudge between the two clans. Would it be better to try to grab both clans trough diplomacy or to help one exterminate the other to gain a trusted ally?

>>5435706
A policy to make taxation more efficent is implemented. All wealth income shall rise by 10% at the cost of 2 wealth, to sustain such an administration. Cities being centers of tax collection also shall no longer cost wealth to sustain.

In the expansion southward the Haakans follow the unfamiliar allure of magic. though it stinks of decay and death it is nonetheless intriguing. The locals of the local area look like humans covered in fish skin and feathers for hair, which have shriveled up like raisins away from water. they are lead by necromancy practicing shamans and wage war against human tribes located further to the east.

With the land purchase complete the Atriarchy bursts into yet another bout of celebration, throwing lavish parties and overly complex get-togethers at every opportunity they get.

The elves even include their new Fey human associates, who are forcefully included in the revelry while being given rather swift trial by fire crash courses in elven etiquette.

The current reigning Atriarch resigns in disgrace after allegedly accidentally brushing the ear of a political rival while hugging her goodbye during the after-council celebratory roast (during an incorrect moon-phase), marking the sixth largest scandal this month.

He is replaced by Atriarch Danndada, sure to lead the elven people into a glorious future with her radical policies of putting funding into everything.

Of note is the fact that some farmland has been so severely over farmed that nothing grows there anymore.

It is generally ignored and swept under the proverbial rug before more important news, like Atriarch Danndada wearing a boring looking dress during her ascension ceremony and embarrassing everyone by falling for almost all of the customary ascension booby traps.

Action 1: Farm
(Farm on the left of the peninsula, university on the right)
With some tiles being overfarmed, a new farm is set up in a fresh location on the plains where no other farms tap from, drinking directly from the river to fill the hungry bellies of the worlds greatest race.

Action 2: A site near Reveris is picked out as a prime location for a new university to be set up.

Elves, when causing a general ruckus, starting immodest fashion trends or bullying each-other for the way they look are deeply fascinated by the world around them.

Those with patience and keen minds are fond of studying the practice of alchemy, the eldest of the elven sciences which has never really amounted to all that much. Nevertheless, with a new university being ordered by their beloved Atriarch the elves flock to assemble a new centre of learning and wisdom.

North most owned island will be converted into a weigh station and Port town as well as the northern most holding point for the Sea peoples Fleet, becoming Northern Command under the purview of Perekles Rotakles the Diplomatic Admiral of the Sea Peoples

Action 2: Building a wood cutting zone
Green island south of the dragon islands, needed to upgrade their wood production a grove has been sectioned off for cutting.

Lore Continued
As the Diplomatics with the northern dragons had gone on a fruitful agreement had been made, a handfull of ships would be used to guard their trade ships, and a rather skilled wind mage from the Dragons would be assigned to the newly formed Northern fleet preparing to start regular patrols and the newest "Raiding season"

Much drinking and feasting was had as the aurigans welcomed their flightless kin (who they call Golzqah) to the fold and one of their own was appointed to the council. The festivities would not last forever for their was much work to do. Explorers were sent out looking for more lost kin or untapped resources.

Their were many dangers within the new world and the aurigans refused to be under equipped and the newly constructed forges would happily meet the demand for bronze. The republics armies would not be under supplied.

With a new source of magic the mages were excited to learn but much of what was learned was mixed and time lost as multiple mages retread already discovered ground. To solve this issue the council of elders ordered a construction of a place of learning so discoveries could be shared and the magics codified.

The northern plains are now free of the heresy of 'Mother' Erdenfrau, instead Mother Wolkanfrau is cemented as the mother of the Zeigenvolk. The heretical cult of Erdenfrau believes that a goddess of earth and growth is who mothered us, and their logic is our soft features, especially our hair, and that we cannot be the product of a hard and harsh mother. The correct belief is that Mother Wolkanfrau, the goddess of mountain and volcanoes is our mother, giving us the fire in our hearts and made our men strong. The divide is also somewhat gendered, as Erdenfrau is hornless like our women, while Mother Wulkanfrau is horned, like our men. There's even a niche cult that says Mother Wulkanfrau is mother and father both, thus men and women are merely her splitting our duties, as mortals are limited compared to gods. Sister Erdenfrau continues to be a goddess of growth, as long as she knows her place as Mother Wolkanfrau's daughter, being merely a sister to the Zeigenvolk.

Action 1: Build Farm in the Eastern Highlands.
The exodus of the northern plain heretics created a housing vacuum, attracting Zeigenvolk from the mountains with low housing prices, among them were intrepid farmers who see the Eastern Highlands as an ideal place to farm around, as well as do some herding on. The influx of people also shifts the demographics even further toward the correct belief of Mother Wolkanfrau, with plenty of new farm shrines firmly stating it's dedicated to Sister Erdenfrau, not 'Mother' Erdenfrau.

Action 2: Save the exiled stonemen, or Steinvolk, and indoctrinate them into the cult of Mother Erdenfrau.
The heretics in the north, when coming across the stonemen, finds them perfect proof of their belief. Their very existence challenges the cult of Mother Wolkanfrau, as these are far more akin to her than the Zeigenvolk are, even if they lack horns. The heretics will thus save them, bring them what stone they need for sustenance, and then indoctrinate them into their cult, perhaps even getting them to remodel themselves with horns to match their belief that these stonemen, these Steinvolk, are the sons of Mother Wolkanfrau, a horned goddess. And thus the Zeigenvolk must be sons of Mother Erdenfrau.

Colony. The convocation had little desire to directly go to war after so many of their number had been conscripted by the living storm. Still their eastern kin can prove to be of use. Convincing the necromantic elders to stay and connect their leypoint to our own we strengthen not only our own, but their magic power. Through these elders and our own priests we offer to bolster the eastern tribe's war efforts by investing some of the necromantic leyline power to their own tribe and give some of our newfound food surplus to increase their own numbers. With the leypoint and shipments of food under our control we can be reassured that their strength will be on our terms at least until the opposing humans are driven out. Then we can see if they will need to be humbled by who are the true masters of magic.

1/2. Build two farms. One has 5 marsh river adjacencies, 1 hill river, and 1 hill. Other has 2 marsh river, 4 jungle river, 1 marsh, and 2 plains outside borders. Agricultural efforts continue as people once again begin filling out the wild lands they call home. Their diet expands to include chocolate, sugar cane, plantains, okra, peppers, tomatoes, and even wheat!

Deans Wigrim and Thwip watched the scout soar off across the ocean with a touch of worry. The lighthouse, still fresh enough to be mostly clear of fungal growth, pulsed with bioluminescence light at its peak.

Dean Wigrim frowned, an expressed made all the more severe with his large face splitting mouth. "Do you think he'll be alright?"

"Our neighbors do seem to be a bit warlike...hopefully the gifts from the new farms will help."

Wigrim nodded. The new drink they had come up, absinthe was it?, was certainly entertaining. Still, he couldn't help but feel he had sent the young frog kin into a hornet's nest. Hopefully their neighbor's promises to the north would hold weight.

Lore: the witch doctors of sarmatia
within the fringes of marshlands and jungles surrounding sarmatia exist a group of strange indviduals obsessed with pursuing the knowledge of plants and nothing else. they spent majority of their lifespan locked up inside of their garden huts studying and experimenting with different plants that exist in the marshland of sarmatia. once in a blue moon the witch doctors will temporarily leave their huts to visit the various tribal settlements of sarmatia to procure supplies in exchange for their service as expert botanist/plant magician and returning back for their garden hut after they were done with their job. nobody can predict when they will come and go and how to deal with the witch doctors and their antisocial behaviour. but despite their eccentricity the witch doctors are respected and honored by the sarmatian for their role of providing both medicine and poison necessary for the sarmatian tribes to survive in the marshland.

>colony decision : sell the lands to prospector (witch doctors)
for many years the witch doctors refusal to participate in sarmatian society and politics have caused frequent headaches to the tribal elder. the witch doctors saw politics and social interaction as a mere waste of time that distracts them from pursuing the knowledge of plants despite their skills being needed for sarmatian society. after finding the lush untouched jungle wilderness in the north. the tribal council decided to instead of settling it normally they would sell it to the witch doctors as a ploy to lure them out of their antisocial garden huts by luring them with potential new exotic plants for their experiment.

>tech decision: herbology
the knowledge of processing plant into consumables with different effect depending on the plants used as material.

2.wealth policies: botanical garden (universities act as farms at the cost of 1/2(?) wealth per building each turn)
with the influx of witch doctors coming into sarmatian society the surrounding universities are now equipped with botanical garden for their use in research and snacking.

>Action 1: Build a Market (M)
The first arrangement with the town of Kovalin, and through that south-coast town trade with the Principality of Arlet Adlan, means that a market will be required to play host to their visiting traders. And so it is commanded that a district of land immediately to the north of the city of Lesh will be set aside for this purpose.

>Action 2: Build a University (U)
It is clear however that the immediate surrounds of Lesh are now too crowded for an institution to thrive - and anyway, unlearning freemen, pompous nobility and the vaguely feral shamans all provide too much of a headache. Many learned men of Lesh strike out for their own place of theorising and philosophy.

>Carpentry Production:
For this age, the carpenters will craft bows for the free men of Leshyr; so that they might hunt the game of the common woods and practice themselves in skills that might be needed should danger threaten our land.
>Forge Production:
For this age, the forges will use our metal to make tools for our people, allowing them better performance of mundane and daily chores.

With production of hemp properly underway and a good flow of lumber, it was only natural that production of proper ships would go underway with a good deal of effectiveness. For the time being, there would be a focus on expanding both farmland and the are which lakon, or hunters could operate. The term applying to both those who went after animals on land and in the sea with no differentiation between a fisher or hunter existing in their tongue. Still, the plan for the Ulodrac was simple. Work on improving the most basic of infrastructure while diplomacy was underway. After, work on other things for glory, wealth and prosperity would be undertaken. Along with the means to gain such things through force. Their target likely not their immediate neighbors, but further away...But such was in the future. Far off from now...

>Production Policy. Construct ships of oar and sail alongside bronze tools and weapons.

>Action One & Two. Construct farms.

1. Expand north to the rest of forest titles and jungle title around the lake there
2. Establish a Guild of independent researchers called Free Organization of Mind Packers, or F.O.M.P.
3. Build a Military Academy at the capital (get started on organizing our military might)
4. Create a Ministry of Economics to standardize the kingdom currency, keep track of taxes and so on

>Technology:
The Linothorax. A form of armor comprised of Linen and Bronze; minimally with the fittings, more substantially featuring integrated scalemail. This would provide the levy with a cheap, simple (though time consuming) to produce piece of armor which while light proves very effective against all sorts of blades and blunt weapons.

Actions:

1. Linen plantation along the river in the tile above the capital.

2. Prospect for usable minerals and materials. With any luck we'll find gemstones, precious metals for coinage and jewelry, or anything else...

>>5439091
Colonial Response:
Exterminate the Guknil descended tribe (unless they are both not related to us in which case support one over the other), allying the other and putting them under the influence of Rakno. The fact they are not related to the Guknilors means they will be less respected by mainline clans and therefore more loyal to Rakno.
Action 1:
Agriculture north of Rakno explodes, as the fertility of the forests due to the nearby rivers is uncovered.
Action 2:
In a diplomatic action between them the Chief of Konolo and the Chief of Kiyolo raise the coinage nessesary to construct a great monument to Guknil the greatest ancestor. A pyramid which is inscribed with the faces of his sons, forming a family tree going down to the modern generation. A replica of his body upon the top, each of its four sides being dedicated to one of his son's. It is built upon his gravesite built when his spirit left him some time ago. It now serves as a newfound point of golemic pilgrimage as ancestor worship continues to develop.

>Action 1: Build a Woodcutter in the Jungle
The Orcs live in a coastal nation and cannot hope to continue expanding by relying on their magic alone. A woodcutting operation is to begin to support the creation of a Navy.

>Action 2: Create Tidal Spell (Water)
Hoping to defend their coastal nation and keep their new colony in line, the finest mages of the two schools aim to create a spell which draws upon the power of the tides, granting it greater power based on its proximity to the ocean.

>Extra 1: Create Penal Colony
Even the most barbaric among the Yulakgh could be considered an intellectual among the filth-covered goblins and blueskins. The colony is to become penal in the hopes that the experience would serve to civilize the natives and teach the wrongdoers what life is like without civility.

>Extra 2: Connecting the Ley-dots
The Pure Leydot is to be combined with the Lightning Leydot to create enhanced Lightning Magic.

-The Lily folk to our east are as understanding as we have hoped, and excitedly we look to the future now that it looks a little less lonely. In preparation for those who will come to visit our land, either to commune with their preserved loved ones or scholarly minds, we will grow hospitality structures for them to use during their stay.

-Though we have only met one other nation so far, we are optimistic that reasonable minds are abundant in this world. We must grow in order to ensure that we have sufficient space to house them all. Expand to the North.

A city is built to make place for the potential new arrivals from the south or other nations. Would be good to name it.

Colonising further north you faind that patches of dispersed mycelium have already grown in the loans. Not big enough to develop sentience, but once they are merged into the larger whole their experiences will be a valuable addition. The enthusiasm to spread fuerther is large among the many, while worry for land is never a concern for them more land means more potential friends, more potential memories and experiences to share.

Do you wish to turn the enthusiasm in the future into a further land grab or into an increased preparation of the land for settlement which is already claimed?

As such a grand expansion follows as spores fill the air and the mycelium networks begin conencting colonising a whole 38 tiles to the north

A problem has arisen though, the city that has been established has turned out a miserable slums rather than a welcoming metropolis. (you have a wealth deficit, you need at least some money to keep the city afloat)

>>5441032
> extra 2
yeah, no. Conecting ley dots is an action, infusing a magic into a pure ley dot is an action. Both can only be done to fully colonized land not mid-colonisation as you don’t control the area fully yet.

Woodcutter is constructed in the jungles allowing you to harvest 4 tropical wood, which for now will help fill the coffers of the state while later it’ll become the basis for our grand fleet.

The tidal wave spell is created. It is a 5 magic spell which outright boosts the naval power of the Yulakgh by 5, ensuring their crash into the enemy with the wave and the enemy is stopped by the wave. While now an extremely powerful spell, making the orkish navy one of the world’s mightiest it is bound to become less relevant as technology advances and navies grow larger. Some of the rowdier orcs have joined local goblin tribes stirring up trouble which will extend the colonisation time of the area by 1 turn. (2 more turns until complete)

Filing the colony with prisoners allowed to expand it as some less than willing settlers flood the area. Them being prisoners they are of course somewhat rowdy. The land is left barren as no infrastructure is established (4 out of 40 on infrastructure roll)

On a good note though teams of explorers managed to find an expansive cave system nearby.

>>5441739
>>5440686
A farm is constructed in an isolated plains area. While the area for the farm might look odd it produces 10 food in form of the odd golem fruit. While in the north a grand pyramid is constructed. Looking weirdly out of place in a plains.

Your nation’s great wealth helps urbanize the newly colonized area putting down 4 random buildings, but if you wish to centralize/urbanize the area you may replace 2 random buildings with a city instead. Moving around the buildings is also ok.

>>5439167
Farm and University are constructed.

>>5439477
University is built.

A further expansion follows trying to usurp the bestiomancy dots. The expanssion is met with low enthusiasm. People are unsure they should expand the colony rather than finish it and the land they are entering seems to be inhabited by weird semi-sentient fungus. They feel at all times observed, yet the fungal blobs seem unwilling or unable to communicate.

Even with colonialism low you manage to expand your colony by 20 tiles, delaying the time it will finish at though by 1 turn. You do notice though that further south the fungal colonies are more organized and even humanoids communicating with them. This land is being settled by another.

>>5439537
An impressive farm is constructed producing 13 food alone, your nation has a great abundance of food. Certainly a strong foundation to lay for the future.

The stonemen in the south are swayed and a church to the Earthmother is constructed locally. The large amount of wealth from your nation also allowed for the funding of the construction of many buildings. You may choose to get a city instead discarding 2 of the buildings. Colonisation will conclude next turn.

>>5439652
You don’t get adjecencies to land you don’t control.

As two farms are built your faming output and food diversity both greatly increase. Your population now has a healthy growth rate one to certainly let them soon catch up wuith their neighbours.

>>5440395
The Linothroax is invented. An interesting combination of Linen and copper it is sure to shield your soldiers well while retaining good mobility. One problem with is is that it’s a rather expensive product… so some corners might need cutting for the lower class soldiers. Oh well, not like their lives matter.

The Linen plantation is built and produces a comfortable 9 linen, more than we could ever hope to process with out meagre industry.

A decently sized veing of sulphur is found near the capital region of our country, while the reast of the majority of the country seems to me one giant iron-vein. Luckily in the east of off the coast deposits of Jade had been found. (1 land tile and rest in water adjacent to land)

Your production of tools helps to increase… well production by 20%, not aworthwhile exchange now, but it is certain to pay off later while the production of simple bronze weapons allowed to the equipment of a single army with good quality bronze spears. (with pop of ~14 that’ll be 1/14th of a 200% bonus so a 14% bonus)

>>5439652
>>5440395
(Colonial news important for both)

The haakan colonists are hard at work having constructed grand monuments to their home nation already. This might be disconzerting to the Scions who preffered to avoid direct controntation letting the tribal conflict fizzle out. Their display of weakness combined with the display of strength from the humans has lead the locals to consider what is more valued, kinship or strength? As a piece of bad news though a depleted mine was found near the main colonial nexus meaning the ore veins in the area had been exhausted what a waste of a good mountain.

On the side of the Scions side they are pulling the locals to their side with promises of of the construction of a smithy in the mountains and the construction of a carpenter in the south in hopes of stimulating the local industry. Considering the growing cultural influence and military dominance of the Haakan’s it might be the wiser choice for the Scions to abandon these plans and put down a city instead. (you can switch 2 buildings for city instead)

Lastly a choice for both colonizers.
1. Do you wish to limit our expanssion just to the contested area hoping to gain a greater controll there?
2. Do you wish to keep the whole potential expansion area?
3. Do you wish to abandon the contested area and instead safely colonize outside of it?

The colonisation contest will conclude in 2 turns. You may construct buildings inside the area in hop of swaying the locals or spend 1 action to extend the period in which the area is being colonized. (1 action 1 extra turn of contest)

>>5439365
(placed woodcutter differently so you get 2 wood not 1…)

Considering you gave me no city name I placed a port if you wish it switched to a city I can switch it. Please make clear if you wanna build a prot or city.

Your new improved ships are created they cost significantly more 6 production 4 wood, 2 copper and 1 tin getting you 12 boats, but they are beauties to behold few a nation in this would could contest your navy. Yet this power is built on a fragle back as your nation’s population is still very low and land limited.

>>5439774
While you have enough presence for the deal the Sea people don’t a research agreement has to be both-sided so he also needs 4 presence first.

Farm and Monument built.

Glassworking is improved, being a technology that further boosts technology… umm 20% bost to the tech rolls.

> You get a new tech

>>5439879
The colonisation goes well thanks to high enthusiasm and decent wealth of your nation you get 3 potential free buildings in the colony on top of a free silver mine the proespectors found. Having struck silver the private prospectors drove a further drive of colonists expanding the colony.

High colonial enthusiasm, empty land and the prospectors finding silver (valuable resource i nexpansion area) ended theexpansion one turn early. You have no authonomy in the new territory.

One could say your nation is doing well even if food is getting a little bit tight.

The first lay-line is created a truly grand achievement for the sentient races. Among the magical races your’s is a pioneer among pioneers. Now spells need to follow.
(please create a school of magic for your silly plant-gravity combination)

Lastly the branch of herbology is created giving you +20% extra woodcutter and plantation output

>>5439958
University and Market are built and production is assigned. Making good use of all your resources cut somewhat into the prosperity of the traders, but the market certainly made up for it.

With tools your production is increased and with bows your army will be feared like no other.

>>5440120
Two farms are constructed and good quality, but technologically primitive sailing ships are constructed. You could get 5 more ships if you had the wood, and there was not enough wood for tools.

Using the tropical wood for ships also reduced your nation’s wealth.

>>5440194 (Fey or for beni/blu)
As you expand north you encounter natives of your race, though you notice they are in some sort of tribal feud with an ancient enemy. There is a set of ruins in the land and the uman locals claim it is a grand city of their deadly enemy. In spite of this ghostly presence the colonists seem enthusiastic afterall if their kin already lives there the forst must be friendly to them.

As such theexpanssion goes well… too well. Goin far beyond the initially intended border area umans flooded the savannah’s to the north. Not liek that’s a worry… the excess can just be sold afterall.

The elven money is put to good use establishing FOMP and organisation which shall help with research granting a 20% boost to tech rolls. Ministry of economics has similar effect granting +20% to taxes.

Military University near the capital is built.

> You get a new tech

>>5440203
The apothecary and university are built. The slimes known for their hornyness needed just that drugs which make them even hornier.

>>5441467
Woodcutter and carpenter are built, your nation now has a wood supply secured and a decent production. About the time to start producing something.

Your nation’s great wealth helped promote the construction of magnifficent structures in the new potential colony. It’s no heaven, but it’s getting there.

Your explorer’s have found something concerning though. A great demonic beast, possibly a bear or lion mutated by the lightning magic. The beast seems to be slumbering near the ley dot. It is a dangerous animal which is siphoning the magic greedily content to stay still until it’s magic absorbing rituals stay undisturbed. It is a problem that needs dealing with.

With the university established, a town soon begins to grow up at the site of the nearby spring. Chor will provided habitation and governance for the scholars of the university, and anyone else drawn to the western edge of the Kingdom.

>Action 2: Expansion to the West
With a new city establishing close by, the lands beyond are deemed suitable for arrivals to move on into. Colonists under the guidance of new-landed Thanes move on in to begin setting up on the verdant grasslands, whilst Freemen move into the woods to care their own new homesteads; with the Shamen particularly excited about something they say lies in the southern woods...

>Carpentry Production
The carpenters put their whole support behind the expansion effort, carving timbers for those setting up homesteads and building the new city.

hearing about the lack of enthusiasm in the colony the council would need something to reinvigorate them. It was decided that they needed to be reminded who the gods chosen people were and how it was our destiny to rule the skies and earth. A grand temple was built to the Sun Dragon Faadaglok and in a further display of power the two leylines where finally connected creating Inferno magic.

With the colonization seemingly going quite well for the Principality, the Grand Prince has decided that it would be best to consolidate what possessions we already have instead of pushing onwards. Our initial goals have been met, and it would not seem wise to overstep our bounds; especially with the hideous things to the south attempting to establish a foothold. While they seem magically adept...that's about all that can be seen.

Actions:

1. Jade! Such a beautiful material, and so close to a city as well! Surely this must be the priority above all others.

2. Our current industry is...lagging behind. That much is perfectly clear. As such, it would be wise to expand our forges to maximize our productivity. The army needs to be equipped, the workers need tools, and of course the nobility needs their trinkets.

Production:

Linothorax! Bronze scaled for the men-at-arms and other wealthy levy, plain for the commoners.

> New Technology: Concrete, for better roads, universities, monuments, and testing bunkers.

Dean Weyse, of the University of the Unknown, watched unblinking as the three pteradons circled overhead, bleeding off elevation and speed as they came down. They had just finished a long trip over the ocean, scouting hundreds of miles worth of far off terrain on the back of the frankly terrifying beasts Dean Wigrin had helped bring back from ancient history. Weyse permitted himself a short shudder, he had seen the size of the teeth on some of those bones, and he wasn’t looking forward to the aquatic species that were planned for the future. Asking ‘should we’ was nearly sacrilege, but still, the less species that could swallow him whole the better.

Back to the moment. The three scouts finally landed, several waiting lilalkin waiting nearby to rush in with food, water and care for their mounts, while the three scouts themselves dismounted, stretching bodies to their full length after hours in the air. Their lead dismissed the other two, then approached the dean.

“Captain Lohop, it’s good to see you’re back in one piece. How was the trip?”

Lohop stripped off layers of furry clothes. “Cold mostly. You would not believe how cold it gets that high, I don’t know how the birds handle it.”

Weyse smiled. “Perhaps we’ll set up a meteorology department on the far shores. Does it look suitable for colonization?” The two began their slow descent from the landing platform built on top of one of the giant mushrooms of the fungal peninsula.

Lohop nodded. “It’s beautiful sir. Rolling plans, vast woodlands, geysers of healing magic rolling off the ground, a ravine bigger than a city glittering with gemstones. It has to be seen to be believed, and we barely left the coastline.”

“Locals?”

“No idea. We didn’t see any but...”

“We don’t know what we don’t know.” Weyse quoted the motto of the university with a wry smile.

“Exactly sir.” Lohop pulled off his goggles, blinking in the bright light. “Had them on so long I forgot about them. It’ll be a long trip for anyone who goes over, we’ll need to build a port, a proper university, perhaps even a second city.”

“We’ll be counting on you to guide them. The university of material science is already packing up their things, there’s apparently only so much you can do with fungus.”

Lohop laughed. “I can imagine. Let me get a good night's sleep and I’ll be ready to fly.”

Colonial Response: Keep the whole expansion area. Replace the mine and forge with a city on the blue tile.

1/2. Build two forts on the orange marked tiles. Lines show where they protect. These two forts will ensure that the mountains and leypoint will be uncontestably ours while they still stand. Our newfound city of Somberpass will also be protected while it reorganizes the local tribes around us. Such a strong gesture will correct any notion of weakness and make it clear that we act on our own terms. That they were too weak to handle their conflict even when an offer of power was made to prop them up only to be rejected means that only through direct administration and guidance will our kin be made strong.

Immelreich's forges produce primarily bronze tools, with our plentiful tin and copper, there is no shortage of bronze for our forges. Our warriors are well equipped, bronze armour is a common sight, with fully fledged warriors clad head-to-toe. There's also silver trinkets often being used as a common currency, for whenever there is no direct barter of two goods. Finally, there's all the farms produce, there's plenty of food variety, but a favourite is grain. Bread is a common food among all Zeigenvolk, but what all men love from grain, is beer. Every town has a drinking hall, where fresh caskets of beer are served, with all sorts of flavour variations used to keep it all fresh. No day is complete without beer.

Action 1: Build city of Waldengard in the newly colonised area.
As the northern colony solidifies, migrants move over, including nobles. They settle in the town of Waldengard, causing a lot of locals from the colony to migrate over there, as nobles are wealthy customers. The nobles quickly setup administration, making laws and a guard force to enforce them. As Waldengard grows, so does the crime, as nobles are wealthy targets. Thus the final step to becoming a city is made, an internal wall, separating the wealthy upper districts from the expansive lower districts. Any criminal from the lower district has to pass through the inner gates, and plebs don't get in without permission, so crime only really happens in the lower districts.

Action 2: Build university northwest of Wolkenburg.
The news of the men of stone shakes the Wolkenburg court, their stony visage is much more a fit for kin of Mother Wolkanfrau. We can't let the Erdenfrau heretics prove themselves to our people, or we might see a reformation. We have a lid on the situation for now, restricting the flow of information and only allowing the gospel of Mother Wulkanfrau be spoken aloud, heretics are to be lashed. However, this will only work for so long, until the locals start talking. We already have a great church, they have already heard our gospel, but they disagree with it. They have a counter argument, one we must disprove. Thus Kaiser Diederich Kupferohr von Wolkenburg commissions a great university to be built, where our greatest minds will gather, to find definite proof that we are sons of Mother Wulkanfrau, not Sister Erdenfrau.

With plenty of food now provided, and trade with the north secured, there was something that needed to be done soon. And that simply was production of metals of various kind. While some bronze was available, more would be valuable as an extremely lucrative commodity to sell on the market, given the Ulodrac was blessed with having lands of both tin and copper rather than merely just one or the other. Still work would be done to ensure that there was more in the earth that could be extracted, be it beneath the lands surface or the coasts around it. After all, unlike any other people they knew, the Kanomaki could very easily get access to metal deposits that other peoples had no chance of accessing. Or at least would take extreme work and risk in their case. Other than this, in the forest filled north, further lumber mills would be made so as to provide the growing navy and merchant marine of the Ulodrac, and to ideally free up more lumber for other uses. Regardless the Ulodrac was going to secure it's production, and after was likely to enact some plans and do more civil works. Grand ones. Along with some profitable actions some might dislike that will be used to fund those works...

>Action One. Prospecting

>Action Two. Create a lumber mill in the north.

>Policy, keep building ships.

Incase expose to the goblins is not enough of a reminder, the Orcs must be reminded of the finer stock they come from through their art. An intellectual sort, the monument is not of any specific person, but rather it exists as a monument to Orcish mathematics, using complex geometry and medieval engineering.

>create hybrid magic: mutation/evolution magic
From the plant leylines, the magician of sarmatia grasped the concept of "growth". and from the gravity leylines, they grasped the concept of "force". and from combining the understanding of the two concept together the swamp mages figured out a way to forcefully trigger the process of "growth" within all things in existence. but the new magic while powerful is not without drawback, with its unpredictable nature it is impossible for the mages to control the desired outcome. while sometimes the mutation gives beneficial result, often times it result in nothing happening or even worse it causes negative impact to the caster.

>action 1: create spell - Mutate
the one and only spell of the mutation/evolution magic. the mages injected the power of mutation into any target whether it is himself, the environment or a casted spell/ritual of magic from another pathway with varying outcomes dependign on the luck of the caster.

>Lore Point: The land of the Volonauts, though known as a Celestial Kingdom or Empire, is very much so the opposite. Unlike the other civilizations of the world, there is not clear leader, or even group of leaders. The general apathy and otherworldly spirit of the Volonauts allows them to function in a stateless society (though it has unavoidable capitalist elements).

>Action 1: Land Pioneering (Prospecting)
The realm's most talented and skilled artists soar across the vistas of the mountain valleys and grand forests to depict to their kin the beauty that they may still find solace in upon the plane of mortals. Those with good eyes may even find some useful resources within...

>Action 2: Construct a Forge
The piles of unrefined and semi-refined gold and silver are beginning to flood the streets, some have taken it upon themselves to teach themselves and others how to purify the ores and craft beautiful ornaments, with Volonauts now commonly sporting fashionable wristbands and necklaces of silver and gold.

These people will need to have their singular needs met while they live they here, yet the concept of market and currency is not something we fully understand, or even need. As so we will open our spaces for the merchants of the world to setup their stores and offer their wares to those who live among us.

-Life proliferates, and with it so do we. Our reach is emboldened, our spores scattered, and our once small realm is poised to grow far larger after recent fortunes.

Preparing for a major push forward the Leshyr set up the city of Chor. An expansion of the university town which already sprung up as an area it will be perfect for coordinating the relentless push west.

(I don’t see anything about the trade deal in thread and you don’t have a market or port anyway, so I’ll make the tools copper rather than bronze)

With the production of copper weapons for the army and navy to use the soldiers feel like they can actually fight. Lastly wood is used to prepare colonial supplies for the upcoming settlers. Carts to transport goods and planks to build settlements with. This is sure to help with the colonisation effort even if it ate up our last bits of production and aviable resources.

As you expand into the forrest you find that it is natively inhabited by humans. Proving once and for all that they are the the true natives of this land. These humans though differ slightly as their tribes universally keep another race enslaved one they dubbed the Housefairy. Housefairies are half meter tall humanoids with large floppy ears, catlike faces and elephant-like legs. They frankly seem like very ill suited to be a slave race.

Your settlers having recieved much support and high enthusiams will claim 24 tiles.


> A high drive
Your colonists seem to be exceedingly driven smelling powerful magic just across the border they wish to keep on pushing, but will need additional supplies. For 3 wealth (permanent payment) you can have the colonists push into an additional 2d6 tiles or choose not too.

>>5441778
A temple is built to express the great religiosity of your people. What’s their religion actually?

Lay line is created, what’s the magic type you create?

I swear I mentioned before when you tried to do this. You don’t have wood, you can’t make tools until you do… well luckily for you your colonists cooperating with the draconic locals managed to set up a woodcutter. Though at the current level of authonomy in the territory an independent citystate will likely form. (low, diplo, very high distance from any city, low colonial enthusiasm coupled with 2nd natives not of your race)

You have the choice of letting the citystate manifest and be friendsly to you or cutting the colony in half and creating a 10 tile-vassal and a citystate hostile to you.

>>5441828
Yeah it’ll have to be on the double-grid island. No two buildings in one tile.

Cartago rises in the north as a certer of administration for the widely dispersed cities of the sea people. It will serve as a good outpost for future colonisation. it is imperative that naval dominance is secured as, as the city stands now it would be an easy target for woodbe invaders.

Monument is placed next to city producing 3 presence, bit more and that coveted university deal can be completed… an expensive investment, but one sure to pay dividends.

All of your production is already assigned to pumping out ships.

>>5441835
A forge is built an so is a coastal jade mine. jade from the ground and from shallow water is harvested on mass letting you accumulate 6 worth of the precious stone close to tripling your previously unimpressive economy.

The coveted linothorax is finally produced. Using two production you are able to supply 2 of your units with mastercrafted armor giving a 400%*2/pop combat bonus at the cost of 4 linen, 2 copper and 1 tin.

the Linothorax truly is a great product, but the industry ever-hungers.

>>5442119
Two forts are built, a city named Somberpass is formed.

>>5441835
>>5442119
With both parties choosing to keep both expansion zones the large colonial investments and creation of a city put the Tempestous Somberpassns at an advantage. The locals coalesce in Somberpass creating a joint culture for the region.

As things look now the overlapping expansion area will form a citystate which will be a Tempesrous Somberpassn vassal, while the uncontested Somberpassn expansion will be annexed as a semiautonomous region.

For the Haalkans their uncontested expansion area will also become a vassal. Both vassals will not be very loyal as due to a joint cultural heritage they would seek to become one state. The expansion will conclude next turn things can be still shifted by trying to placate locals with buildings etc.

>>5441906
In the north you faind barren unihaited land while in the south you find a land inhabited by Dark Elves, once noble healers now they use their healing magic to endlessly heal victims as they torture them they are talented diplomats and soldiers, but not very fast breeders. The choice needs to be made if to exterminate or assimilate these beings or maybe use them to aid the other colony?

The expansion into the virgin land in the north is one surprisingly the one the frog people are not too enthusiastic about. Being a very social species there just is something scarry about a land without any prior inhabitants. Not a problem without solution though possibly we could ask the drow from the southern colony to aid us in the expansion?

The northern colony for now will received 15 tiles (-4 to insta colonize 2 islands) while the southern one 22 (-1 to insta colonize flying island).

Additionally a small never previously inhabited cave system is discovered in the northern expansion zone. it even has some homely fungus growing in it!

*I already rolled expansion related stuff so you changing actions would be way to bothersome. If you build the city where you wanted next turn I’ll count it for colony-authonomy purposes as if you had built it this turn (it actually makes no difference itj ust needs to be there the turn colonisation finishes anyway)

> you get a tech (well duh)

>>5442102
Could have at least put in some fluff text.

Anyway. The great cauldron of slime finally overpills, the population of the slimes has been relentlessly growing until it’s borders could no longer contain them. The slimes pour out into the wild only to discover… there’s human enslaving some small long eared species everywhere. Guess those two are just what’s native to this island. Where did the wobble come from then?

The colony finishes and the formerly dying men of stoen in the forests are now thriving as worshippers of the Earth goddess. The mountain rockmen on the other hand saw you helping the exiles as an insult, they still become a part of your nation albeit they stand with the Volcano cult tooth and nail to the point that the Volcano cult has begun moving their infrastructure to the land of the stone men knowing they are safe there from government crack downs… and even if disloyal the raw quantities of gold they possess more than make up for it.

In other news the Sheeple guilds finally put some emphasis on education constructing the nations first institution dedicated to learning and development of new technologies

Your capital region seems to be home to a small deposit of tin. Your overseas region seems to be split between 2 ore veins two have been identified as gems and coal with the gems deposit likely extending up north across the border.

A lumbermill is constructed supplying you with a comfortable 6 wood. With extra wood you slightly increase your naval force limit having a grand flotilla of technologically primitive ships numbering 20. There is 1 production left and some wood which you could use with the metals to make tools or weapons.

Trough masterful diplomatic meddling the Orcs managed to secure the pure lay dots without the southern golemsi interfering. With that the colony is finished and the land is truly theirs… well the exclave become a vassal nation as the tribes comprised of Prisoner orc and goblin manage to secure their authonomy.

Still access to the Lay dot is secured and that’s all that matters. The capital of the new state is established within the grand cave for defensiveness, Feel free to name your subject and the City.

The monument in your vassal is created increasing your opinion of you. (if they like you enough you can start integrating them once enough time has passed

Expandiong deeper into the mountains you encounter something you’d rather have not. An anethma to your being and insult to your existence. It’s pig-headed orcs. Their tusks are pronounced and faces piglike. It is in many ways an insult that they are the same kin as you… but that does open possibilities.

We should choose now if we wish to:
A) exterminate them
B) attempt integration
C) Eugenics experiments - you are a subrace of ours, (+25 mil power -20 to tech rolls) possibly we could create a new type of orc combining the traits of both.

>>5443131
Mutation magic is a marble the pure ‘force’ behind growth, change and evolution. The raw concept in it’s purest form taken beyond conventional thinking. Mutation magic allows for the induced mutation of all things be it spells, objects, living beings or already dead beings… this versitility is only matched by it’s unpredictability. The result is always random thus this type of magic is way more beneficial as an offensive tool to disrupt the enemy rather than a genuine tool of creation.

> >action 1: create spell - Mutate - the one and only spell of the mutation/evolution magic. the mages injected the power of mutation into any target whether it is himself, the environment or a casted spell/ritual of magic from another pathway with varying outcomes dependign on the luck of the caster.

No. This is the entire school of mutation. You have to create spells one by one. Mutate inanimate object, mutate life, mutate undead, mutate spell etc.

I’ll make this one mutate life for now. And it does one thing, if you want a spell that causes people to get cancer in this school of magic you need to actually make an ‘induce cancer’ spell.

Mutate life - A spell that allows you to randomly mutatet all living beings, +80% military power nations at war with you have their population growth halted for the duration of the war.

(obviously additional fluff effects exist for like trying to mutate wildlife or showing off in character)

Farming subsidies are given increasing farm output by 50%.

> Authonomy in the north
You have a large swath of land in the north without a city to govern it unless you build a city next turn you will have a 1d2 chance per turn to gain a level of authonomy there.

>>5444033
The Lion’s den is avoided. As stated it will not be dangerous unless disturbed, but leaving it be blocks one farm adjacency and access to the lightning ley dot. It’s not time to worry anyway, rather it is time to celebrate as the expansion was a success with the strait secured.

The new influx of food and land lead to a population explosion among out kin. Maybe it is time to turn to colonising the lands in the sky at whom we still merely stare longingly?

Looking for resources we find that near the entirety of our nation is a a giant coal deposit, with a portion of the northern mountain laying at the edge of an obsydian deposit, to exploit it efficiently we’d need to expand inland though. lastly the newly colonised land in the north sprouts a tin deposit.

Using wood to make primitive arrows helped us slightly strengthen our military, on the other hand using silver and gold to make impressive jewelry allowed for a +100% boost to diplomacy at the cost of those material leaving circulation and the wealth that came with it.

>>5444224
The fort is constructed and scouting out resources you find that the mountains are largely a massive salt deposit with a silver deposit in the east. The plains… oh what a waste hide beneath them a large Jade deposit.

>>5444721
Not sure what you want to do if to train soldiers (policy) or build an university so university is built. helping to increase tech growth. Aproppo tech, you still need to assign your’s from last turn.

Soldiers are sent into the forbidden city. penetrating deep into it they find it to have been a human structure pre-uman-human. It seems when the fey first arrived graciously filling uman bodies with suitable souls some humans still kept theirs and waged a long war against our kin, but loss would eventually come.

Exploring the ruins further a set of a few swords is found, but only one intact. The swords are wrapped tightly in what appears to be rose thorns. The knights dub these baldes ‘Briar swords’ due to their pinkish hue. Playing around with them one soldier swings the blade above another’s head, said soldier then collapses with panic, his fey soul has been trapped in the uman body.

Your scholars suspect that elves might come from fey whose souls have been trapped in uman bodies. The local umans are merely shackled by fear of an enemy long gone.

You gain the briar sword artiffact. It’s capable of cutting souls, you can research how to make them which will provide a large bonus when fighting umans, necromancers and healing magic users and a smaller bonus when fighting bestiomancers, mind magic and biomancy users.

On an unrelated note likely with some bizarre forest-creation plan in mind your colonists have built an aqueduct form the swamp into the savannah. it looks neat in the very least.

>>5444769
Market is built to exchange goods with the unassimilated it shall be like a lure for a fish, though the fish once caught is given a nice aquarium rather than being eaten.

> Action refunded
You have a spell which lets you terraform stuff 1 magic per tile without action investment, but you can only use it once you actually control the land. Once the colony is under your control you can just declare you terraform it so feel free to do 3 actions next turn.

Already excited to see giant mushrooms sprout among them the locals eagerly set up a carpenter. Their mycelium tendrils waving in the air they can’t wait to turn their cousins(?) into planks of wood (?).

Action 1: Volcanic Forge

The forge of Skyclad Anvil is assembled after a surprising number of breakthroughs regarding the use of naturally occurring magma to heat metals. A gigantic assembly, the work performed at such an intimidating site is sweltering, the fumes sometimes making one’s head spin, the trek up is treacherous and unsafe rendering the elves who live there isolated for many parts of the year, but the results speak for themselves.

Raw ore enters the site as immaculately crafted metalworks exit, a dream only made possibly by the elves natural genius.

Action 2: Expand

It is time for all of Herin Desh to be ruled by elves. While our first expansion was purchased, this next one must be performed under our own power.

Go forth colonists, propagate endlessly and fill the land.

Production: Produce jewellery using gemstones and gold, now that we have a forge capable of making metal goods.

The latest craze for the ultra rich is jewellery as clothing, and rather little else. Is there any more complete a sign of status than to be bejeweled from head to toe? The wealthiest of the azure appear like gods descending upon the world, even if everyone else thinks this is vain even by elven standards.

> Create Magic Policy (Mind): Chainspeak, a powerful spell that allows telepathic communication over vast distances by using chains of spellcasters typically known as Chain Speakers.
Originally created to aid in communication between universities, Chainspeaker cafes have become a common sight where Lilalkin gather to exchange information with distant friends, family and colleagues, allowing cultural concepts and ideas to shoot from one end of the nation to another overnight.

>Technology: Water Wheels.
Transforming the flow of a river into mechanical power has enabled the Lilalkin to enhance industries and farms located near rivers.

A city meant to spur on great leaps of exploration.

The Lilalkin find torture distasteful, but they have to admire the creativity in some of the methods. The University of Annihilation is promised as an outlet to funnel the dark elve’s darker tendencies.

Dremin took a deep breath and ran her hands across the dream stalk staff, resisting the urge to nibble on it. A small vial of dream stalk extract sat in front of her, a powerful if brief enhancement to her magic. A simple hourglass whiled away the minutes. Soon they would perform the field test, the big ocean crossing test. What good was going to new lands if you couldn’t exchange information? This would make or break everything.

No pressure.

Dean Thwip poked his head into the room. “Is there anything I can get you?”

Dremin shook her head. “It’ll either work, or we’ll improve it until it does.” She gripped her staff tightly, watching the hourglass. It was synced, as well as they could be, to three others, forming a chain across their nation, then over the ocean to the new colonies.

“The mind is the greatest tool.” Dean Thwip quoted to her.

She nodded. “It’s time sir.” She drank the extract, span the hourglass over and held her staff at arms length. The mental constructs that formed the spell rolled through her mind, rigid shapes and strange concepts described with an esoteric vocabulary and grammar that served to direct the power of magic in her mind. There was no room for doubt.

The magic enveloped her as her mind expanded, rushing over the dim lights of her people, rushing out until it touched another great mind like her own. Her mind reshaped, transformed into what she called a chain, but was more like a long psychic stalk, connected to the other mind, which was connected to another mind...

A secondary spell interacted with her mind and the dean appeared in her mind.

“Everything is going well sir.”

“Good work Dremind.” She grimaced at her name but then smiled as her fellow mind mage appeared in her mind as well. The dean nodded. “Shin. How are the colonies?”

Shin grinned broadly from the other side of the ocean. “Amazing sir.”

With the discovery of further tin deposits, a mine is swiftly sunk into the earth to take advantage of it. If not for the sake of producing more bronze, then the sake of trading the materials to make the vital alloy abroad at great profit, or just the bronze alone. Ideally, future prospecting and perhaps future lands would contain more vital metals, but this would be expanded upon later. For now though, work would swiftly be put to use making tools and weapons. However, in order to better increase production, a more distant group of smiths pooled their resources to create a small village on one of the islands between the three sections of the Ulodrac. And, there, they traded their skills and services in exchange for weapons and tools. Both of which were vital, especially given the sudden and surprising arrival of strange beasts on the boarders that mimicked humanoid form, yet clearly were not human. The gems, while a wonderful find, would be seen to it to be discussed with the people of Leshyr. Especially given the veins location. Good relations with a few would be best for business after all. Especially given the plans of some ambitious captains...

Lore

There had been a massive whirlwind of diplomacy in the past few days and weeks, reports of the contact with the Ulodi/din, the report the republic to the north, and even the curious meeting with the Frogmen of the concord had all come and gone, and from it much was learned, more so was gained.

From the Concord alone great things were hopefully to be had. a wolf ship of academy youths escorted by the two lieutenant ships of Captain Phykos would arrive off the coast of the capital of the Concord, the studen ship would unload meeting the concord on the shore hopefully to open arms, the same wolf ship that they would have arrived on would have had its mast removed alongside its boarding corvus, leaving only a flat top boarding deck, as a proof of concept for the wing program.

the closeness with the Republic to the north would become perhaps one of the closest in the Archons opinion, hell his daughter had been sent to study alongside their wind mages. and the Northern fleet had been placed where it had due to its closeness, the patrol triangle going from the Northern Naval Port to the farms and woodcutters to the south of the republic and to Cartago and back. keeping Vera close to home and allowing the navigator time to return home if needed.
Production: all production of ships would be halted. switching production to Spears and Etruscan shields

Action: Military Wealth Action- Sea and Land Drills
-The archon and the Admiral council have come to the decision that perhaps it is not the quantity of ships, but the quality of them and their crew, drills would proceed all though the northern triangle and off the coast of the concord capital.

-(Denoted by Orange) the trials in the south with the concord would include testing of the Pteradon flyers acquired from the Concord. aboard the 'Ulysses' only being able to field three of the leather winged creatures on its flat top deck, several trials to get the creatures airborne would result in the development of a launching strategy of rowing into the wind and having the creatures take a minor running start to create lift.

-In the Northern Triangle Fleet, wargames between the ships would be conducted, maneuver drills and standardization's would be undergone. as well as sea to land actions using the lands south of the republic as a staging ground for land training, focusing on the development of minor formations and marching.

Action. Presence building. A Lighthouse to rival that of all the lands would be built, a solace to all whom enter the waters and shall be guided around the whirlpools for safer passage. (Denoted by a golden star)

1. Build a monument in the orange province. The locals were impressed with mundane works of the humans of the north, but high on the mountains will sit our own monuments far grander in stature. To symbolize our mastery of life we will take coral from the sea and have it grow on land. Its twisted spirals forming the appearance of a tree while we carefully take a small part of the great vortex that resides deep beneath wellspring. Binding it to the coral tree and have it act as a living focus on the living storm. An excellent place to resolve disputes through combat just like back at home.

2. Build a temple in the red province. To establish orthodoxy amongst the locals a grand temple is built near the city and more importantly the leypoint. Here our priests will take advantage of the symbolic nature of the necromantic leypoint and teach about the living storm and how it is composed of all our ancestors. It shall also ensure that all prospective mages will be trained by our own priests. Centralizing control over the leypoint.

Well duh there aren't any cute slime girls like us outside our Queendom, if there were they would've joined us already!

1. Enslaving other races is bad! Everyone on the planet should just become a big happy family. We need to send missionary Slime Girls to enlighten these humans and long-ears about the proper way to treat each other: eat, f*ck, and be merry!

2. To diversify our palette from the usual farm-grown crops, we learn to fish.

Religion: I'll tell you what they believe. You have the mother star/space dragon mother creator goddess Monahdokun who was the only thing in existence. She wanted to see her surroundings so she made the sun, her firstborn Faadaglok. Through his light, she saw her empty surroundings and hated the void and the blandness. she then created the world (a flat featureless blob) as a decoration when she noticed she could only see half of it at a time so she created the moon to reflect her sons light, Krahvulonkun the secondborn daughter.

Monahdokun realized that she didn't really like the ball being so featureless when Krahvulonkun suggested that she and her brother would decorate the world while their mother went on to beautify the rest of the universe which she went to do telling them she would be back to see their work when she was done hers (turning the gems from her body into the stars). while shaping the world the pair would have 3 clutches of offspring. The oldest are the six elemental gods (all of the gods are dragons). the middle clutch was the 4 gods of life. the last clutch of 5 would later be known as the gods of magic. together all seventeen of them had a hand in shaping the world.

their work done Krahvulonkun asked her husband to wake her when their mother arrived. eventually, the gods created the dragons to be their servants but for whatever reason, it didn't work out how they wanted (it's why I wanted to know what dragons are like in your world) so the gods basically recycled all of the good to make the Aurigans.

Inferno Magic: The Aurigans had discovered how to feed the fire with the use of wind magic. they could force a large amount of wind into the flame at once resulting in a large explosion. They also learned by feeding it more slowly and carefully it could be used to both increases the heat and more easily control the flame. another nice bonus is that an Inferno can be sustained on nothing but magic after it has burned all of the surrounding fuel.

>Action 1: build a farm
>Action 2: build a carpenters workshop

I guess I have to wait until next turn to make tools so I can start my production of arms and armour.

(I have a market... it's next to Lesh! The Kanomaki town I'm trading with is on the island, and I thought the sharkfolk could cross the sea without ships as their special? Could be wrong on that, though.)
Action 1: A Temple for Chor
With the new city of Chor filling up, the shamans order the raising of a new temple on the land around the city to bring the wards and wisdom of the great forest spirit to the masses.

>Action 2: Beast Masters (Magic Policy) - 10 Magic, 1 wealth
The Shamen of Leshyr have long sought and listened to the whispers of the wilds; finding meaning in the movements of the seasons and the beasts and the plants and insects; all flowing to the rhythms of the great spirit. Seeking understanding from beyond for themselves, they draw upon the powers of the Beast-magic node to develop means to bind and control even the fiercest of wild animals and bring them to the side of humanity. The quill-ridged Grash-Hogs, the shade-skulking Doleopard, the howling Fnawolves; let these and more be bound into the control of the shamanic order. Let them no longer prey upon the people of Leshyr, and instead act in our service. The Shamen who seek to serve their deity spirit through this service will rove the land, searching far and wide to seek and bind these fierce animals; striving to understand the power held inside these animal forms and prove their mastery in the service of the great spirit - therefore, a small stipend will also be established to grant the Shamanic order funding for the essentials of their spirit-blessed works.

>Carpentry Production: Staves of Office
Using Wood and Gems, The carpenters will craft a staff for each of our Shamen; to be a symbol of their office and a conduit for their Beastomancy powers.

>Forge Production: More tools
When taming new land, plenty of tools are needed - so the forges will keep crafting tools to support our colonists in their efforts.

>Event - A High Drive
The lands our colonists hope to claim are huge already; setting them further afield when the lands we are reaching for are yet unsecured seems the height of folly itself; especially when this unsecured magical vein seems to lie close enough to the coast that our treaties with the Kanomaki might be imperilled were we to grab for them. Let us fully secure our current new frontiers before pushing further.

(Unless of course those dice could help us secure the land FASTER, in which case we'd accept them for that purpose.)

>Diplomacy: Human Natives
The people in the further reaches of this island might be different to us; and yet as the forest is a continuous whole, so are they our brothers and sisters. Let us arrange marriages between the sons and daughters of our peoples, let them see the tools we use and the spirits we keep; let them know that we have much that should unite us. King Undrun and his guards set out into the reaches of the colony to talk to the local chieftains, win them around, and secure their service for Leshyr.

The tide shifts once more in the religious disagreement, with a large amount of Steinvolk opposing the heretical Erdenfrau cult, instead acknowledging that we are indeed sons of Mother Wulkanfrau. Furthermore, the higher Steinvolk become prosperous thanks to the gold mine and goldsmiths in their lands, some are even named Güldenvolk for it. These prosperous Güldenvolk penetrate deeper into Zeigenvolk society, getting many friends in high places. When the Steinvolk then come to claim we are sons of Erdenfrau, the Güldenvolk can be there in force to immediately expose that the Steinvolk are criminals and liars, and so they are not to be trusted, they simply want to sow dissent. It doesn't solve the issue that we appear too soft to be made of mountain, but it certainly pumps the brakes on the Erdenfrau influence.

Action 1: Colonise southwards, seize the Earth Node, enter the Two-Mother Heresy.
As Wolkenburg bussies itself with the Erdenfrau heretics, a third faction moves southwards, into untamed lands. The crossfire in the religious debate often throw shade at this third group, the Two-Mothers Heretics. The Two-Mothers Cult believe we are sons of both Wolkanfrau and Erdenfrau, but can't really come up with their own arguments, copying those of others, and they don't even agree with each other, with sub-heresies that believe Wolkanfrau is our father, not mother, due to her horns. Either way, these heretics find Immelreich becoming rather hostile to them and move southwards to settle fresh lands, also they have come to believe there are answers there, which will give them a strong argument for their faith, so they can stand their ground in a debate.

Action 2: Cultural/magic tech development, Wolkankraft, the lore connecting volcanoes, fire, smithing and passion.
In our search for proof that we are the sons of Wolkanfrau, not Erdenfrau, our scholars have ventured into the volcanic hills south of Wolkenburg, and with some of the Güldenvolk helping us, they can get closer to magma than we can. Through rigorous study and meditation we investigate the connection between volcanoes, fire, smithing and passion. We will prove our kinship with Wolkanfrau by showing the fire of our hearts. In fact, it is us Zeigenvolk who have the biggest smithing industry, an industry of metal and flame, not the men of stone.

>Lore 1: The Orcs of Yulakgh all heil from the island of Dabub. Having been cast out by Orcish society following their discovery of and fascination with the Leylines, the Sovereignty spent years inbreeding. Although still noteably orcish, this produced a variation in their skin color and more importantly in their minds. The orcs can be thought of like the diaspora in this sense, having grown distant from the culture and attitude of their origins.

> Action 1: Connect the Pure Leyline to the Leyline of Lightning
True power is at our fingertips; The leylines are to be connected so that we may harness the full power of Lightning.

> Action 2: Create Spell - Thunderbolt
Harnessing their newfound mastery over Lightning, the scholars develop a spell to become abread and butter staple - A straight beam of crackling blue plasma to tear through compact groups and fry heavily armored opponents.

>Extra 1: Naming the city
The underground city is to be called Svinja

>Extra 2: Eugenics Experiment
Although initially disgusted by the to discover this absurd malformation of their kind, scientists quickly take notice of physical capabilities of these creatures and the variations in exactly how piglike they appear. Instead of oppressing them as outright inferior, the academy instead selects a few hundred of the brightest and strongest to begin a process of controlled breeding.

Action 1:
>Place woodcutter (pic related)
The growth of the Guknilors causes demand for refined wood. Previously wood had been sourced locally, causing much waste and low quality. Now wagons of logs are hauled around Guknilo, all the chiefs securing deals to obtain this wood.

Action 2:
>Place Silver Mine
Golems love shiny things... its a shame some of that silver is under a pesky little upstart...

Refunded Actions:
Action 3:
>Centralize Southern Golem Colony
The Ougkilo Golems have become split between the influence of Rakno and more independently minded golems among them. Due to their greater wealth and power Rakno exerts its control over the region through force, using their allies among them to create a new system. Wherin the Ougkilo Golems of the region become "adopted" into the family tree of Rakno. With new adopted sons being considered full members of the Rakno heirarchy.
Action 4:
>Colonize westwards
This causes a migration of Ougkilo Golems west, seeking independence from the Guknilor. They settle mainly around the great mountain now named "Ougkil" after their forefather. Upon this mountain they wish to settle a new city which shall also bear the name of their forefather.
Other Golems also migrate west north of the great mountain. Guknilo golems properly.

Action 3 Rework:
>Make new colony norf
The oppressive clan structures causes many golems to migrate in the north west. They colonize from the very northernmost plains of the western section and along the gulf. For the northern regions are wetter and thus less hospitable to the temperate-dry loving golems.As well the more southern plains are rife with the eye of Oklolo and Rakno alongside Ougkilo golems.
Thus these "Aaknilors" set up disperate farming communities. Free.

Action 4:
>Make new farm
The Rivers of Rakno have proven an incredibly fertile region. More farms pop up exploiting it.

(I haven't interacted with the policy side up until now, time to fix that. Also wealth policies have their action cost removed, and tech is a free action, so...)

Action 3 (since tech was a free action): Build Woodcutter in northern forest.
The wood from the northern forests is proving quite popular down south. The forests aren't as ideal for farming as the plains east of Wolkenburg, on account of the trees. But these trees are a product in and of themselves, able to be turned into tool and weapon handles, getting more use of the Wolkenburg bronze.

Production Policy: Bronze Tools x4 (4 Production, 4 Copper + 2 Tin + 4 Wood).
The Zeigenvolk have a long and proud tradition of making bronze tools. There are so many tools on the market some are even purely ceremonial, being made entirely of bronze. The recent addition of wood from the north gives our tools solid grips, shaped to give us more leverage than straight poles, letting us work them vigorously and even if we break the grips we have plenty of spares.

Production Policy: Bronze Polearms x2 (2 Production, 2 Copper + 1 Tin + 2 Wood).
The Zeigenvolk are short, as much as it pains to admit, we are lesser fighters than humans in hand-to-hand. However, we are not animals or savages, we have tools, we have spears, long ones at that. With our strong bodies we can wield long polearms that make our spear walls a force to be reckoned with. To approach a Zeigenvolk spearwall, is to approach doom itself.

Wealth Policy: Farming Guilds (5 Wealth, Boost Food).
Farming is an investment, and one that doesn't always pay off. Weather and vermin can harm crops, accidents and predators can harm livestock, floods and even theft can leave you starting over. In comes the farming guilds. They provide much needed security for the farmers, sponsoring their planting and even helping recruit the labour for the planting and harvests, which take a lot of manpower to do in an unindustrialised society. In return they ensure a lot less harvests are lost and thus they will reap all the more reward on successful harvests. This leads to a lot of food on the market.

The jubilee have granted access to their universities and granted patronage to the scions giving 2 presence presumably I will be getting at least 2 presence from my buildings so I will have one university and potentially two if I get the full 6. They also agreed to give away the land behind the red line. In return I am giving 3 food and will soon begin the process of connecting my leypoints to their own.

1. University
2. Lumber mill
(in own land)

1. Survey the lands. Need to find resources
2. Expand into the underground in the name of the King.

The Grand-Prince sits on his throne, unimpressed. The Noble which brought up the idea of settling the lands to the south for the Leyline has proven to be completely and utterly useless; as it seems that there won't be any likelihood the font of the arcane will be going to them. If he wants to claim the land so badly, he can go manage it himself.

Still, this leads to an opportunity. Magic may be a far off dream, but it is far from the end-all be-all. The training of a mage is a time consuming process, but technology? Technology tends to stick around even after the creator has passed. Those to the south may gorge themselves on as much magic as they wish; the Principality shall take another route...

>Lore Point:

Of all the beasts of burden used by the common peasantry; Cow, Oxen, Horse, none are more emblematic of the people than the Great Weevil. Titanic insects the size of a transport-cart, the Great Weevil are mercifully docile creatures and able to shoulder a great deal of weight. As a result, they are considered prized plow-beasts and cart pullers; though this popularity is restricted to the commoners. The bugs are not exactly prone to bring Knights into battle, nor have the aesthetic qualities that Horses do for the nobility.

>>5445391
From above a grand peak the monument to the ancestral storm lies. Crafted from driftwood, gems and coral which miraculously grew on land in the ever-drenched eye of the storm it is formed to represent a tree twisted by storm or maybe a tree merging with a storm. Soon the gazes of the locals Delphin or human like turn away from the bronze statue of a human and their ceaseless gase turns towards the statue of the Storm tree.

Secondly a temple is built one to spread the faith of the father storm an obvious contradiction with the local faith of the death tempest, such an enforcement of religious orthodoxy has lead to grumbling among the local populace, but it’s obvious the humans would treat them no better as such they deal with it.

>>5447448 (Haalkan)
A university and woodcutter are built, the woodcutter producing an impressive 4 wood.

>>5445391
>>5447448 (Haalkan)
With the Haalkan having for all intents and purposes forfeited in the colonial battle, the locals side with the scions. The Core area of the colony becomes a vassal of the tempestous scions even ceeding eastern portions of their purported territory in exchange for ocntineud access to the ley dot and as a clear sign that the temopestous Faith is not welcome in their lands. For the cession of eastern land South Somberpass pushes slightly westward.

The other territory occupied by the Scions becomes a fully integrated part of the nation. The neglected Haalkan colony on the other hand becomes known as Northern Somberpass and also becomes a citystate. The two citystates being one people wish to be reunited, currently due to it’s poverty North Somberpass would wish to become part of South Somberpass rather than the other way around. The capital of North somberpass will be Scio.

>>5446242
The eugenics experiment: at the cost of let’s say ‘matchmaking’ between the porcs and the yulagkh we can assimilate their racial traits. at a rate of +5% of racial mil power bonus at a cost of no pop growth to a maximum of 25%.

You may stop at any time.

The ley dots are connected and the pure lay line infected with lightning transforms into another source ofl lightning magic. producing an extra 20 magic. On top of what both had as output. Lightning is streangthened.

Thunderbolt - cost 10 magic - a simple attack spell utilizing lightning magic to shock your opponents - +200% combat power, increased effectiveness against foes with metal armor.

The new settlers getting along with the locals due to the state mandated crossbreeding quickly set up basic infrastructure. The foundations of a Fort, market and monument are laid, though you can still redirect their enthusiasm to instead building a city.

Lastly while exploring the area they find a depleted mine. The area becoming devoid of natural resources is likely what caused these orks to devolve to their primitive state.

Misisonaries are sent into the lands of the Leshyr attempting to preach your religion to them and to encourage breeding and… crossbreeding among them. While the reception isn’t very warm some turn to the ways of the slime in time.

Colonial Mission - 2 wealth - decreases authonomy and helps integrate natives somewhat

Umm… both action refunded as a wealth policy does not take an action and the fishing thing is a tech which is solely gotten trough technologies.

Both powers seem to be pushing their faith onto the locals, the leshyr being the kin to the humans are more successful with that. The settlers and colonists even laying the foundations to a leshyr church with other Leshyr innovations also comming in such as a port, aqueduct nad forge being prepared.

(Leshyr may switch 2 random buildings with a city in newly colonized landi instead)

The slimes on the other hand start the construction of a grand monument to sway the locals to their ways and considering they are preaching freedom at least the slaves are listening.

In the centerpoint between the 3 leydots a set of ruins is found ripe to explore. As the situations looks now the vast majority of the colonists is leaning towards the leshyr due to their higher prestige, displayed wealth and racial kinship.

Slime options
1. Ferment slave revolt
2. Migration wave - try to send so many slimes you overwhelm the locals (will cause drop in your pop)
3. let things lay out

Options for both
1. Explore the ruins
2. Leave the ruins be

options for both
1. Block off ruin exploration from other party
2. let the other party explore as well

Carpenter’s workshop and farm are built helping feed the draconic race. The dragons can’t help but notice thoug that their homeland is not the best fit for agricultural cultivation… maybe importing food is the way to go?

Inferno magic is a powerful improvement to the wilding of fire. Feeding the flame can create both giant fires or help conzentrate it into a bright white flame easily able tocut trough metal and stone.

Say if you do something with the artiffact from last turn.

Via prospecting you find obsydian, in the vulcanic mountains of the east, sulphur in the south and tin in the east. Large swaths of tin being in the colonized area.

Expanding eastwards into the deep dark underground and lands around it your settlers are happy to go in spite of the dangerous circumstances, gving you an innitial foothold of 24 tiles. They say they could possibly push on further is funded with 3 wealth… which is not something your nation at present could afford, but maybe another sponsor could be found.

The expansion mostly spils into the neighbouring hills as going deeper and deeper into the hills it turns out the natives are bit more organized than you’d usually expect. At first you notice a bat-human here and there shrieking to map their surroundings upon closer inspection you realise they have blindfolds on and ornately decorated clothes which would require a level of civilisation present. It is hard to tell anything in the oppressive darkness.

As you colonists make their way inward they are attacked and a solid half of them is dragged off into the darkness. The bat people while civilised seem warlike and you can’t speak their tongues.

Fortify the area - build 2 forts underground for a 1 action
Interrogate the captives - attempt to interrogate the captives to learn their language (no action)
Revenge - attempt to pay back blood with blood send your army underground to conquer the savages
> Colonisation finishes
The newly colonized area contains no cities to govern it. Unless you build 2 cities (one in semi autonomous region savannah and 1 in the main colony) the colonies will start gaining authonomy with a 1d3 roll as a chance to increase authonomy. If a region goes independent this way it’ll become a vassal.

Fully owned land may be sold off, but if you wish to sell off a semi-autnomous region diplo them first to convince them to agree as they have a level of self-governance.

As instructed a new woodcutter is built upping your woodcutter output to 14. In the south the expansion goes well the land is inhabited by fey-folk of a race you did not meet yet. Going further south the expansion is stopped at a border of an angel-like folk, they are the upper caste of society… literally flying around in the sky while the fey-folk live like they did before on the ground.

Your colonists nonetheless are somewhat enthusiastic setting out to colonize 31 tiles. One of the positive surprises found during the colonisation is the discovery of an enormous cave system not daring to enter the underground caves as of now.

Wolkankraft - A mixture of magic and play on smithing. It is sure to produce beter metals-smuthied goods. - you may assign 2 magic to each metal-containing production-policy to reduce it's production cost by 25% and to increase the effectiveness of whatever is being produced considerably. The magic cost applies per good produced so if you increase the output policy you need to increase the magic supplied.

Bronze Tools x4 (4 Production, 4 Copper + 2 Tin + 4 Wood) - +80% production

Production Policy: Bronze Polearms x2 (2 Production, 2 Copper + 1 Tin + 2 Wood) - 2x200% combat power

Farming Guilds (5 Wealth, Boost Food) - 50% farm production


>>5446580
A new farm pops up both from your colony finally getting done and another getting built, but as rakno itself is being exploited by farms and mines at an exceeding rate it runs the risk of the land deteriorating and becoming a wasteland. (1d6 per turn)

The silver mine is placed (btw there is no slider across the border this was just the rough location of the silver vein, shitty location for a mine)

Colonising westward you once more encounter one of your kin more golems great. Where’d all these come from? These golems seem to be the servants or slaves of a great beast that resides in the region known as the rock licker, it demands from them sacrifice in form of salt.

Many of your golems hearing news of such beast are terrified putting colonial enthusiasm at an all time low… but with your population as high as it is and the golems needing to still live somewhere 25 tiles will still be colonised a number which could be increased by making the colony a penal colony.

>>5446185
Nah semi-aquatic just lets him live in shoreline provinces not in open sea. He still needs a market on the island or you need a port.

A temple is set up helping spread your religion and spread prestige and trough marriages with the locals further your religion is pread in the region. It seems your neighbour to the north had a similar idea sending missionaries into the human lands spreading a faith whose purpose is the end of marriage and slavery replaced by coexistance and constant sexual arrousal.

The new spell is set up, can’t mix wealth and magic policies so it’ll takej ust 10 magic.

Beast Mastery - 10 magic - each best master from young is taught to commune with monsters making a former foe to powerful ally +100% army size (leavies and standing forces)

You have 0,16 production you need to set up more forges and carpenters first, possibly a wealth policy to up production too could help.

The Dark Elves graciously accept helping you settle more land at the cost of them gaining more themselves. The colonies are merged and the Dark elves help expand the northern colony by pushing into the plains.

The northern colony and southern colony recieve one building each, an inopportune woodcutter and a port.

New City and a new spell are created.

Chainspeak - 5 magic - allows for long distance communication allowing for more effective city governance (city admin range raised to 6), more effective dissemination of our culture (presence +30%) and better coordinatio nwhen at war and between units (+30% mil power)

Sir that forge is not next to a volcano… guess you could use your tech if you get one to make aqueducts also transport laval from volcanos.

Anyway forge is built and expansion of the elven race begins. As the 47th moon of the 31st calendar of the yellow-green sun dawns the mayor of the smallest town raises his glass of wine and gives his wife the voice. And she says it is time to expand and claim what rightfully belongs to the Azure Elves.

To your surprise as you expand you find large golem-like beings inhabiting the land. They eat mostly fruit and are rather blunt. Certainly further removed from out kind than the umans, but if they have a brain inside that rock skull they can learn etiquette.

We need to decide if we want to remove or assimilate these ruffians.

In spire of this elven spirits are high, for the stars have convened there is nothing to fear and colonial enthusiasm is high and 25 tiles shall be settled.

> You get a tech!

Issyn and a farm are built

Reminder that I bought the jubilee land last turn even if I dont immediately get their autonomous land.


1/2: Spend 10 magic to create a 200% agriculture spell. Surprisingly the greatest of magical innovations have not come from the priests who were busy pacifying the north or making deals in the south, but the farmers back at home. Having focused on practical matters they desired to not only optimize what they could produce, but to create new wonders to show off their skill in their craft. Using biomancy they have altered extensively the crops that they produce to make impossible hybrids; even taking some traits of animals and making them breed true within the plants.

Wealth Policy: Spend 5 wealth to create a 50% agriculture policy. With the growing popularity of Magically Altered Organisms or MAOs. Great festivals and competitions are held and sponsored both locally and nationally. A place where individuals can share their knowledge and gain prestige as well as promulgate new varieties amongst their peers. The winner and crowd favorite of the first national competition was an ambitious farmer turned rancher who managed to transfer his special swamp mushrooms to a living water buffalo which had them grow on its flesh and could be regularly harvested. It was even said that its milk tasted like delicious mushroom soup!

>Colonial Dilemmas:
>Swap Aqueduct + Port for City?
Looking over the plans of the natives, a Leshyran noble makes mention that this land has rather a number of rivers already, perhaps it might be easier to build this new city on the banks of the river rather then build an aqueduct to an inland site? If this is the course they choose, he suggests the name 'Grig' for the city-site.


>Explore the Ruins
>Invite both the Native Humans and the Slimes to explore with us as a single group.
Whatever our differences in ideas where the borders might fall, this temple is of obvious import to our island and all upon it.


>Action 1: Build a new farm (F)
The Humans of the west seem to be leaning toward favouring Lesh over Jigglejig - whilst not yet a certainty, it is a relief that our forest brothers appear to be drawing toward favouring their human kin over gelatinous enticement. Still, if we wish to draw them closer to us we must prove that we are able to provide for them if they do. A new farm is to be established close to Chor in preparation for feeding more mouths in the future.

With all current timber production being snapped up for use in our industries, it is necessary to begin laying the groundwork for harvesting more to build more future industry upon.

>Tech: Waterwheels
The roaring, flowing power of a river is indeed an impressive expression of pure natural force. With the driving power of a stream or river to power the motion, what else might our industry accomplish? Let it help us grind our grain, lathe our wood, pump the bellows of our forges! How fortunate it is that so much of our industry is already sited upon riverside locales...

>Wealth Policy: Taxation Officials - 2 Wealth
A tithe should be a simple thing, but life is rarely simple. Some freemen pay greater sums to their Earls in exchange for exemptions, and some earls have specific income flows through which they have sheltered their lord's share. Now it is time to keep more comprehensive record of who owns and owes what, and which rent falls due.

>Wealth Policy: Messengers: - 2 Wealth
Currently an informal duty of various hirelings and junior nobles, it is decided to formalise a small messenger service to carry official word and pronouncements between the King and his Earls, between the rulers of cities and keepers of far-flung smallholdings.

>Diplomacy:
With the local humans of the forest drawing closer to the people of Leshyr, King Undrun prepares another round of diplomatic visits to the natives of the colony; and the ennobling of those chieftains and leaders who take to the service of the Kingdom of Leshyr.

>Standing force
Deploy our standing force to Chor 'in accompaniment of the king', and ready ourselves to respond if needed. If the slimes try a 'migration wave' or a 'slave revolt' to push our cousins from their lands, we will be ready to deploy into the colony region and stand alongside our brothers of the forest.

With things progressing solidly, and the clear...problems that existed, further work would be done for the military. Mainly in this instance by the Vinarila. This would be focused on Koshic Elod, False Undead. Also referred to as Kos, or Husks. They are simple undead that follow orders of Vinarila and any designated Nivoa. Although a failsafe in the form of a simple chain of command exists incase of the death of whoever is ordering them, be it from natural causes or unnatural ones, so someone can still order them if the one they were mainly meant to follow is killed. Failing that, they will simply follow their last orders until completion, destruction, or they are able to find one who follows this chain or simply embeds their control over them. Though it is important that a specific command is imbedded for these Kos, that being to never attack a Kanomaki. They aren't meant to be guards, just meat shields to overrun an enemy with raw numbers and by ignoring things that most would like spears due to their inherent durability due to the lack of care for wounds. Damage to them is acceptable after all, and their job is to break spear walls and simply cause a distraction that allows the living Kanomaki to flank or do other things to cause major problems to their enemies. Regardless, the Kos are not intelligent, they simply are given a task, and they do it provided they are able to. Militarizing them is quite easy though as all one needs to do is simply hand them a club or other basic weapon and tell them to hit things that they are ordered to attack, and stay in a vaguely cohesive formation. Though plans to have them assist with simple tasks like pulling carts and moving things in mines or assisting in the planting season of farmland is planned for the future. Other than this, further work is done prospecting. The tin found was grand, now all that was needed is more copper for real industrialization and militarization to happen.

Other than this, the Caorda system is formed. A simple policy of formalizing the existing structure that some militia's in the north near Kovalin had into the military proper. the Caorda is simply a soldier with sufficient skill and arms to be a considerable threat to an enemy. They often are better equipped and are better trained due to longer military service than that of other soldiers, and it is a rank given to those who prove themselves in battle or in training fields, along with the wealthy able to afford better equipment. Often, they are either put in charge of a small unit of 25 to 50 soldiers, or are put into specialized units of soldiers. For the time being, they often are the highest rank that a Nivoa can achieve without attempting to become a Vinarila. And while not elites like the Vinarila, they are still formidable officers and soldiers better than the rank and file.

Religion: Lady of the marshes
The sarmatians worship Raimirea, the lady of the swamp. a vengeful, petty and narcistic goddess who is said to have wrecked havoc in ages past because of jealousy towards her more beautiful divine sisters who received the love of all members of their family. Raimirea caused endless death and destruction in her wake before being slain and excuted by heroes sent by the divines. it is said that her corpses tainted the land with so much poison that the dense lush jungle turned into the rotten marshlands of sarmatia. the sarmatians claims to have descended from the Raimirea and believes that she is lying dormant deep in the middle of the sarmatian swamp, biding her time to plot revenge and wreak havoc upon the god and goddess once again.

tech: dendrosculpting (magic woodcrafting)
using plant magic the woodcrafters of sarmatia have found a way to carve and strenthen woods with their mana. the result is that they are able to create a stronger, more efficient and magically dense wood creations. with a side effect of making their creation more beautiful and intricate.

(tl;dr its a giant flying tree fortress/shrine thing)

A grand series of celebrations erupt as the Atriarchy of Orchar’esh begins establishing itself in the southlands.

The discovery of golemic creatures is met with some amount of surprise, but the nascent Atriarch resolves to integrate and uplift them into elven society.

Meanwhile the Atriarchy of Jubil’esh joins fully integrated into the wider nation, getting the elves one step closer to a fully unified Herin Desh.

Technology: Better naval vessels

Action 1: Expand, numbers in order of priority

Filling in the spaces between Atriarchies, an expansive effort is undertaken to also settle elves outside of Herin Desh and beyond to the shade of a great flying island.

Action 2: Port

A grand port is established nearby Grandis to aid in the construction of large ships.

Note, activate a university sharing policy with the Fey this turn as soon as they obtain the required presence, pre agreed.

>Action 1 & 2 - Create Monuments
Fate has been smiling upon the Yulakgh. While our power grows, our empire remains relatively peaceful and content. We've expanded two cities and we have established new frontiers. In order to ensure continued prosperity, heightened assimilation, and promote centralization. Currently the penal colony is too rowdy to allow a golemic presence. To enable this deal, a large portion of resource are dedicated to supporting the culture in this region in particular.

>Money Policy - Culture (5x)
It would not be enough to simply create statues and expect the people to understand. To unite the blueskins, the pigfaced, and the proud Yulaghians, a great number of resource are to be dedicated to the establishment of a unified culture to be carried forward.

>Money Policy - Agriculture (5x)
With this increase population, the supply of food must grow too. In conjunction with the cultural movement, local farmers are granted additional resources and rights to promote the development of new farmland.

> Build a Plantation on the Sky Island
> Magic Policy: Use biomancy to create giant docile spiders that produce spider silk.
> Establish University Sharing with the Sea People

Dean Wigrin held the sheet of silky material in his hands, then pulled them away. The material billowed slightly, but remained suspended in air.

"Fascinating. You said you planted flax...and got this?"

The farmer nodded. "It's made for an interesting harvest. Had a strong wind hit the other day, scattered the stalks from here to the Center. Material is decent strength, but I can carry a field's worth of harvest on my back. Strangest thing."

The dean nodded absently. "Whatever magic is holding up these islands must seep into the plants as well. Fascinating."

Slavery is bad, okay? (Unless it's part of a kinky roleplay.) The Slime Girls who migrated help to foster some coexistence between the different races which aren't really all that different if you think about it. You know?
Woblobble leaders exchange preliminary letters of negotiation regarding the rightful rule of the contested region between Woblobble and the Leshyr. Leaders of the Leshyr argue that they ought to be entitled to most of the region; they reasoned the Leshyr have more cultural heritage in common with the natives, the Leshyr have already invested their resources into building up some of the infrastructure there, and the Slime nation is also laying undisputed claim to many other resources on the continent other than the disputed region. Leaders of Woblobble argue that the disputed region should be split fairly and evenly, based on the proximity to existing, undisputed borders. Negotiations are ongoing; They have not yet come to an accord, as both parties are keen to establish dominion over the ley dots known to exist there, and each sees the others idea of a "fair division" of the land as biased towards the other party.
Meanwhile, slimegirl, Leshyr, and native explorers cooperate to jointly explore the ruins. Jolly cooperation; praise Jiyva!

The people of Immelreich enjoy a food boom, much more so than with the creation of the fifth farming district, it is the largest food surplus the Zeigenvolk have ever seen. Some complain about how fat the Zeigenvolk are becoming, but this is just a temporary thing, until our population grows to match the surplus.

Action 1: Integrate the Feymen and indoctrinate them into the Cult of Two Mothers.
The Cult of Two Mothers see the Feymen as their Steinvolk. Just as the Steinvolk are without a doubt sons of Wolkanfrau but not Erdenfrau, the Feymen are sons of Erdenfrau but not Wolkanfrau. For the Feymen lack the spark of passion and innovation of Wolkanfrau, as evidenced by their primitive technology, using sticks and stones instead of bronze. Thus they are integrated and indoctrinated, but treated as if they are idiots, because they lack the spark of Wolkanfrau, perhaps is they pray enough Wolkanfrau can lend an ember, but until then, the Zeigenvolk, sons of Erdenfrau and Wolkanfrau both, are the superior sons.

Action 2: Prospect Güldenvolk Mountains.
Our forges burn white-hot with industry, gobbling up metals at a voracious pace, we need more metals to feed them, much more metal. The Güldenvolk will be rich if we find what we want, and even if we don't, their gold already makes them have many members ascend to noble rank.

Production Policy: Modify Bronze Tools x4 order to Enchanted Bronze Tools x4 (3 Production + 8 Magic, 3 Copper + 1.5 Tin + 3 Wood).
Modify Bronze Polearms x2 order to Enchanted Bronze Spears x2 (1.5 Production + 4 Magic, 1.5 Copper + 0.75 Tin + 1.5 Wood).
Add Enchanted Bronze Armour x2 (1.5 Production + 4 Magic, 1.5 Copper + 0.75 Tin + 1.5 Hemp).
Total cost: 6 Production, 16 Magic, 6 Copper, 3 Tin, 4.5 Wood, 1.5 Hemp.
While investigating Wolkankraft we have discovered it's resonance in our bronzework, bestowing it with energy. This revolutionizes our smithing, and all the forges immediately shift over to using Wolkankraft, eager to see the effects of it. The forges also end up with surplus material, which they use to create bronze armour, such that the Wolkenburg army will stand supreme, clad in Wolkankraft Bronze.

Production Policy: Enchanted Coinage (Reichskrone/Reichskroner) x6 (4.5 Production + 12 Magic, 4 Gold + 4 Silver + 4 Copper).
When Kaiser Diederich Kupferohr von Wolkenburg, the mighty and wise hears of the wonders of Wolkankraft, he gets a bright idea. We have long had mineral riches, but we have yet to turn it into proper capital, money. Indeed, with Wolkankraft infused into every coin, it'll weaken the Erdenfrau cult, as each coin bears testament to our Wolkanfrau heritage.

Wealth Policy: Volcano Guilds (5 Wealth, Boost Magic).
With the discovery of Wolkankraft, there is a surge of people seeking to exploit it. In response, Volcano Guilds emerge, snatching up Volcanologists to harness the Wolkankraft, and earn the guilds themselves a hefty paycheck, taxing all the Volcanologists in their employ.

Another year passes, another lack of any sort of progress. There is not much that genuinely bothers the Grand Prince; but this...this is one of them.

>Action 1: Expansion into Floating Islands
Waves of winged angels take flight towards their new homes, the islands of the skies.

>Action 2: New Spell - Gravity Acceleration
Experienced sport archers and hunters have found great success increasing the accuracy and viable distance of their arrows by using gravity manipulation to accelerate it at speeds greater than currently achievable by mere bow alone.

>Action 3: Construct Coal Mine
The wealthy and avaricious among the volonauts have found much use for coal in heating their bathhouses and it's utility in the smelting of gold and silver.

>Action 4: Construct a Monument
Along the coastline another great artist with too much time (and perhaps wine) on her hands displays an grand rendition of her late husband, towering above the nearby trees, constructed of finely crafted wood with inlaid gold and silver patterns, it strikes awe into those who see it, and inspires a series of smaller copycat artists and some slightly more original paintings from others. In time it may decay, but for the time being it stands as a testament to the talent and love that bleed through the souls of the volonauts.

>Production
No changes.

Lore: The people of the republic looked upon the floating islands with awe obviously a gift from the goddess Venbonorok. They had to be secured for the Aurigans anything less would be blaspheme.

While on the Homefront both a fleet and a port was was being built for trade and to protect the republic both home and abroad. The Republic remembered their obligations to the sea people and would not be found wanting.

>Create learning center
-We shall sprout forth a center of wisdom, so that the enquiring and curious minds of the world's nations may travel here and ask of us what we know. And in turn, perhaps those same curious minds, will return to us when their time is nigh, in order to preserve their own knows within our embrace.

>Link the Mycelial and Beast lay dots. + spend 6 magic to transform the plains leading to it into mushroom tiles
-It feels primal, primitive... bestial. It rings in the earth like a growling animal, this newly discovered lay dot in our northern lands. We are curious, we wonder what benefits it can bring to us. We send out our husks carrying more of our culture to assimilate the land along the land and to extend our vast mycelial body even further until we reach this strange place. Once upon it, we caress it with our fungal blanket, through which we may tap in and explore this strange place. Curiously, we ponder what will fruits it will bare for us days to come.

>Political investment.
- We have forgotten ever since we came into our new forms, to some extent, what our passed lives were like. It is true, here we have little of the wants or needs we used to have when we were once individuals. But now as we, the many, look upon our neighbours and their... "state craft" we realize that though we live in harmony, we have yet to organize as such. We hold that none are more important than another, but we are a crowded mind, with many voices sharing different ideas, some even conflicting. Thus we have decided, that on topics of great interest, we will have a consensus of minds, where the many may collectivize into separate ideas, and those who represent the most of us will direct our combines will. In this way the Many will remain undivided as One.

>>5451135
(third action was just fluff, posting an actual third action)
>Prospect the land
Looking upon our neighbors we also see that they are drawing wealth from the earth and reworking it into fine goods to ease the lives of their people. It has lead many of us to wonder what we could achieve through similar exploitation. Prospect our lands to find what wealth they hold for our benefit.

>After finding the strange artifact, researchers begged the king to let them study it for at least a little while. The king thinks it's a dusty old thing and threw at them.
>"Do what you wish with it."
>With glee, the researchers commissioned some construction workers to build them a museum.
Actions
1. New land means showing off your power! The king orders a city called Under Drake to be built.
2. A city needs protection from these "natives" as well. The king also orders two forts to be built! (one in semi autonomous region savannah and 1 in the main colony)
(Free action) 3. While their tongue is obviously uncultured and primitive, learning a new one is always good. Interrogate and integrate the captives at once.

Nation name: Akkaria
Capital name: Akkitaria
Preffered Colour: Brown
Race: Akkitarians
-Description, Piles of shifting sand and hardened rocks in the shape of humanoid figures. They don't necessarily eat.. It's more or less an absorbtion of moist sand to replace the dry sand that they lose on a day to day basis. The Akkitarians are all also innately in tune with the geomancy node on their sacred mount Akkar. This magical harmony allows them to mold sand, stone, and sandstone to minorly to their will. With this power they've build their greatest wonders to even small things they use on a daily basis. This isn't without it's limits though. As they use the ley dot's waning power, less and less is available to form new Akkitarians each year.
-Traits, +10% food, +10% production, -25% pops
-Portrait, pic related

Starting actions
1,2: Aqueduct x2, Many Akkitarians believe that long long ago the great mountain of Akkar was a part of a much larger mountain range that reached across the entire desert they call home. They also believe that the river that flows from Akkar was once mighty with many more tributaries than it currently has. As a result they've set up many hills and sane dunes to try and attempt to terraform and channel the river back to its once mighty state.
3: Forge x1, At the top of Akkar many Akkitarians work as geomancers and artisans that make goods for their nation.
4: Mine x1, To the south of the Akkar Forge there lies a gem mine that employs even more Akkitarians, who've struck gems deep beneath the surface.
5,6: Farm x2, Surrounding Akkaria are rivers that allow the people to collect and repurpose water. Though Akkarians don't use food in the traditional sense, they still require moisture much like any other species requires food.
7,8,9,10: Establishment of Geomancy Ley Dot. Its location is deep within the great Akkar mountain. The magic from this Ley Dot is the life blood of each and every Akkitarian that exist. They all have minor geomancy powers as a result.
11,12: Founding of the 2 following cities Akkara and Akkitaria
13,14,15: University x3, To know ones self and the sands that surround them is the greatest Akkitarian persuit. Many universities have propped up around the cities in Akkaria as a result to study not only geomancy, but also geomagnetism, and geometry.
16,17,18 Temple x3, Each Akkitarian temple is atop a great sand dune which the Akkitarians believe were once the peaks of great mountains in the ancient mountain range they base their religion off of.

> Exploration
Both the Slime and human explorers descend deep into the ruins. The whole place seems to increasingly look like a great battle took place here. Corpses of dragonics litter the area… well skeletons.

As your exploration parties descend deeper and deeper you begin to hear singing… and deeper… and deeper… the cave opens up it’s not large enough a cave system to inabit, but once a grand city seems to have stood here, but most of the cave had collapsed. The singing echoes making you feel drowsy. Plucking up your ears the explorers descend deeper until they find the singing it’s humanoids… hard to tell the exact race due to how shriveled up they are. Either way they are undead with covered up eyes and cemented over ears. They have beads in their hands they continuously move as if in trance like prayer there is 120 of them, but there clearly were at least 300 before as you see many of the singing stations crushed by debris or empty. At the center of the singing formation sleeps a dragon, but not like the ones you’d know now. It’s a being which would be big enough to build a grand fortress on top of. The presence it exudes is downright terrifying

> The Grig Massacre
Despite the conflicting claims of the two neighbours their relations have been going well, but the slimes chose to take a decisive move to switch the colonisation effort in their favour. Reshape the local population of the island, not trough genocide, but mass migration. The local human tribes did not take the mass migration well knowing they would loose their traditions and they they frankly could no support a population this large with their hunter gatherer lifestyle if they wanted. Realistically they were helpless to resist, but their more civilised cousins chose to stand and fight in their stead.
Beastmasters with sword and bow in hand stood to stop the slime migration, the slimes started to be attacked in places they attempted to settle forcing them to stand their ground or run in the ensuing chaos most tried fleeing, but the few which fought strengthened the lesh in their resolve to fight. In the end the migration was stopped and even reversed as in the ensuing battles… or hunts or whatever you would call them 70% of of the propeorted colonists would be killed costing the Queendom 14 pops. The scarred remaining 6 colonist pops fled back to their home nation.

>>5448541
In the north as you expand you find that the desert is already inhabited by amazons. Descendants of the overly-eager explorers which had settled the steppe before looking for resources.

Seeing as those amazons seem to have degraded culturally the settlers fear the same making the colonial enthusiasm very low. As such the expansion size is low letting you gain 8 tiles.

Maybe the expansion can be bolstered by making it a prison colony… or by lies.
1 Don’t do anything
2 Make a prison colony
3 Lie about having found resources to encourage the locals to push on in hope of finding resources liek their ancestors did

A woodcutter is built cutting large swaths of tropical wood to support your economy.

The Manifestation is created it’s a building that functions as a fort, which can also transport, up to 6 armieswhile moving via flight at speeds equivalent to an army. When using it in war you can choose for it to remain in flight where it provides an offensive bonus from the air or to ‘plant it’ where it will distort the battlefield with gravity magic and destroy nearby infrastructure when planted.

Due to it’s size and power adiditonally to 8 tropical wood, and 10 magic it will consume 4 food ans 2 production. Each manifestation of Ramiera is a marble to behold which will bring fear to the enemies of Sarmatia. (adds 10 military power and also provides the mentioned battlefield effects)

You do need to up your production by at least 0,8 r the Manifestation will begin to degrade.

>>5448609
Across the sea you encounter another golem-like civilisation, but whereas the first ones were made of bulky stone these are empty sets of armor filled seemingly with pure magic. They forge their young akin to how they are thus their racial stats can be affected by metals given to them.

The armors are weak to lightning and fear it greatly, but are said to grand great vitality to their friends.

with high enthusiasm at meeting new friends and the elven desire to put themselves inside them colonial enthusiasm is high. To your surprise however you fin the natives are embroiled in war with wild tribes of Azure Elves… if we’d let them call that themselves. As such they are unsuually apprehensive to you and your kind. Who knows maybe helping them in the war could make them trust you or maybe it’s better to replace them with your own kin.
The port is built… but ports don’t build ships they give them a place to dock…

Anyway 20 basic ships are built. And via bribing the oracles to tell the farmers to work more the food production of the great elven nation is increased.
>>5448751
Monuments built and the colony is at last integrated. Food output is heightened via monterey policy.

Jade while somewhat useful for combat is a decorative element, as such the combat bonus is not as large as with bronze. the harness of jade lends itself perfectly for tearing down walls even made of lesser stone and against armored opponents.

>>5450356
The action is not really valid because that would be a wealth policy and you already spent 5 wealth this turn. So I’ll convert it into building a temple next to the colonisation side as that’ll help preach religion to the locals.

The Güdelvok mountain is all gold. (in fact the gold deposit stretched into your land, but you ‘destroyed’ some of it with starting silver&copper mines).

Otherwise in the hill region of your nation near the volcanoes there is large swaths of obsydian while in the far south and area of new expansion there is much silver.

Meanwhile in the colonies luckily or not the locals have started constructing the future buildings you may trade 2 random buildings for a city.

Effect of the minting policy

You gain a lump sum of 40 wealth, additionally you unlock the 'Standardised currency" diplomatic policy with other players - your coins baing made with magic are effectively unfalsifiable making them perfect for trade. You may enter in agreements with other natins where they will use your currency for 1 presence each. Every nation in the monetary union will recieve +60% wealth (+20% for each member of the union., -50% wealth from silver, copper and tin mines, you will recieve the remaining 50% if they posess such mines.

> You get a tech!

>>5450482
Forge and university are built.

You lack the copper and tin to make more tools. As such instead you decide to pay your workers more to raise production output.

+50% production from wealth policy - 5 wealth
(hope that’s ok I can reverse it if you don’t like it)

> you get a tech!
> you are slightly lacking in food, if food is not provided next turn famine will begin

>>5450537
Your people are happy to return to the skies making the colonial enthusiasm high.

With that you manage to set your sights on all the flying islands nearby. (expansion speed on flying islands is halved, but you rolled a 26/30 and high enthusiasm as such you manage to claim all islands and a bit of land)

Coal Mine and Monument are built.

Your newly colonised land is far away from any cities, unless you build a city there next turn it’ll start gaining authonomy.
>>5451034
With average colonial enthusiasm and an awful colonisation roll you barely manage to claim the 3 flying islands… should be 2 flying islands and 1 normal tile, but whatever.

As they float in the sky there is obviously no natives.

A port is built laying the foundations to your nation’s future navy. Your vassal happily and greedily takes the money, if you wait for a bit they are sure to invest it unwisely and you can decrease their authonomy by threatening to take away the golden carrot they’ve been given.

>>5451135
>>5451139
In the plains there is copper in the hills there is tin, the rest of your nation has mostly iron within.

You have transformed plains into mushrooms may the plains folk for 1000 years curse your kin.

The ley dots are linked please create a new shool school of magic by hybridising beastiomancy and mycomancy.

University is created. Though we are not of this world we still need to learn about it.

>>5451154
Under Drake is built, 1 fort per action. I’ll build one in the svannah then first, it even manages to govern most of your main colony, but it is lacking luckily the northern part of the main colony did not gain any authonomy yet.
Learning the tongue of the natives is not easy. It contains many squeely sounds too high for a fey to hear. Only by holding a big tube to their mouth can one hear those and only with a whistle can an uman replicate them.

Slowly you learn that they need blood for the blood sacrifice and your kind looks weak so they went for it. They seem to treat being captured as something expected and normal.

In your colonies the colonists have begun constructing a temple, fort, port and aqueduct you may switch two random buildings for a city instead a wise choice considering your current administrative troubles.

You get a tech!
> Akkadia
(new nation)
You rolled a tech, and you also get 1 bonus tech for missed turn, congrats 2 techs!

Action 1: Expansion
Action 2: Expansion
We will be trying to claim both of the islands demarcated in the picture above


Tech Lore.

it was a feverish night for the master shipwright of the Sherden, sleeplessly he tossed and turned as a storm pelted the island as it oft did. his mind replaying the events that took his leg and his arm, what landed him as a master shipwright. a northern expedition gone awry. tossed upon the deep blue waters. unable to find purchase through the waves, oars useless in the massive jaws of the open water. how the ship was lifted from the water and dashed upon the waves itself, broken in twain and again in fourths, when he awoke, a new design came to his mind, not unlike the sleek wolf ships that prowled the coasts and surrounding seas. no this would be... more..

as his mind clarified the image he put charcoal to paper, laying down a strong spine. taken from only the strongest storm aged wood, this would create the bones of the new found monster. a thick, deep keel would keep it from capsizing even in the hardest storms. her ribs would be re enforced with Bronze bracings. allowing for give and take but only so much as to not split her.

unlike her Wolf ship cousins the new beasts would not have their hulls coated with copper, instead as the planks were laid along the bones of the ship, black pitch would be laid over them, sealing the ship tight, as it hardened into an deep black it would hold harder than simple wood, though not as strong as bronze. she would withstand any cursed storm

she would bear twin masts, unlike her sister ships hers were thick and tall, taken from the same breed of wood as the keel. mated solidly with it through all the decks she would spanning over the top deck

her three decks would service nearly 500 men. 100 crew including the Admiral and her officers and 400 deadly warriors

when the construction of the first one was completed her Nocturn hull was christened by the archon himself the white main sails were dyed a deep crimsons red her additional studding sails were a deep blue, with a White Eye upon each one. making an almost arachnid appearance.

the name of the new "Spider Ship" would be declared first by the archon "SNS Fury" her admiral would be newly Admiral Phykos formerly of the southern fleet.

New Tech:
deep sea "Clipper"/"Frigate" twin sailed warfare and trade/expidition ships with capability of long voyages, less metal intensive than the standard warship as they use sail power. they would be armed with a marine compliment.

Production: aside from the single tech ship, no production, stockpile
Wealth : grow trade with the Concord of the Lilly and the Dragonfolk to the north, trade for wood and linen or silk (for sails) as well as for other things. use SNS Fury.

Tooto was trying, he really was. But for curiosity’s sake could the teacher vary her voice a little!?

“Now it’s important to note that while every class of magic has their own quirks, biomancy tends to shift organically, mind magic is highly susceptible to cross interference from your emotions, healing magic rapidly becomes entangled with the life force of its target, and...”

Tooto’s eyes drifted downward.

“Likewise note the arrangement of the standard arcana circle, which while an inferior choice for most purposes, has the benefits such as...”

The door to the classroom slammed open, and Tooto jerked awake to find a dark elf stalking across the classroom, finger to her lips, eyes wide alongside a manic grin. The classroom froze as she stalked across the room carved into the giant mushroom stalk, then slowly pulled open the window. Her tongue slid across her lips, eyes targeting toward the ceiling.

“Ah! Got you!” She screamed and snapped her arm out the window. Moments later a spider the size of her head was pulled back into the classroom. Nearby desks scraped away involuntarily from the eight flailing legs. “Little escapee! Come back to the ranch so you can get bigger!” She giggled and practically skipped out of the classroom.

Tooto shuddered. Why had they built the spider ranch next to the universities!?

>Reactions: Dragon Ruins
The sight of the sleeping dragon, the undead chanters... it sends chills down the spines of all the humans in the expedition. Are these shrivelled beings some forgotten ancestors, or strangers who came to our island from afar. And the dragon, great beast of myth and legend even among a nation of beast-keepers. Why does it slumber, how long for? And what might happen if someday it awakes?

Not a thing to hope to find soon, the expedition-leader decides. He raises his hand and motions to signal a quick and quiet retreat from this chamber of a lost age.

>Action 1: Grigstand Fortress (F)
Treachery! The actions of the slimes in their attacks upon our peaceful Grigyr cousins have put a lie to their claims of wishing coexistence. It is fortunate for the foresight of our bold King Undrun, who had kept our armies stationed close enough to intervene and turn the tide against wave after wave of the wobblies. Long will the defiance of Grig be remembered in our annuls! But one defiance is not enough to secure a future. King Undrun offers his support and that of the nation to Grig and to the local population, commanding the raising of a Fortress that will stand as a guard between Grig and the slimelands, and a reassurance to the native people of the enduring presence of Leshyr and our brotherhood.

>Action 2: Land Survey
The lands of Lesh are wide; but that which we know is in most part but the surface of our land. And yet from the depths we pull copper and gems... what else lurks below our soil and forest? Our surveyors intend to find out which other bounties below remain for us.

Production Policies: Shields
The new-cut timbers are presented to our carpenters, that they might be transformed with bark and hide into shields for our ranks; to defend the bodies of our men and to press back against those that wish our people and cousins harm.

Wealth Policies:
Military Support - 5 Wealth:
With the recent incursion of the slimes into our colonies, this is not a time that we can allow ourselves to lie lax. Policies are put in place to strengthen the recruiting and training procedures of our standing armies, to ensure that quality remains high and that reinforcements might be rapidly rotated into the ranks.

Military Action: Secure the Colony
The Defiance of Grig has proven that we cannot afford to leave our settlers fates to the hearts of others, and that our cousins in the deep woods must receive the protection of our people against further incursion from the slimes that wish to drive them from their homes. Half our forces will remain encamped close to Grig while the city defences are constructed; the other half are to be stationed along the riverbank north of the city, along the colony borders to prevent any further crossings or malevolent influence. Messengers from our established service will be stationed at each post so that each might send warning to the others should the slimes seek conflict.

>Tech 1, Dune Dwellers, +10% food from desert tiles.
Since the dawn of Akkaria, the harsh desert has been their home. One of the many ways they've come to adapt to their inhospitable environment is by developing new ways to extract moisture from the sands and river banks.
>Tech 2, Advanced Earth Manipulation, Doubles mine output in mountain terrain.
Deep beneath the sands of Akkaria and within the southern hills and mountains, plentiful amounts of gemstones are extracted, refined, and experimented with. This, along with the recent discovery of magic focusing abilities of the gems have spurred for advancements in the extraction of said gems.

Actions 1 and 2: Mines

The elves take a breather from their rapid expansions and just invest time in exploiting their iron and sulphur veins.

Wealth policy (5 wealth): Aledorri Knight-Rangers

Handpicked from the firstborn sons and daughters of elite families, members of the Aledorri compete in games of battle and are the first line of defence against any possible threat to the Atriarchy using blade or bow to protect and serve the crown.

Honouring codes of Chivalry that are surprisingly simply by elven standards, they fulfil a deep seated ancestral need for elven nobles to send dashing knights off to complete quests.

Naval action:

Assign five of my ships to exploring the nearby seas and coasts for resources

Expansion event:

The war between the (not) azure elves and animate suits of armour seems like a really big hassle that we don’t want to get directly involved in, but supporting the golems in protecting themselves is just fine.

Iron from our new mines is shipped over to our newly acquired metal friends, they may be able to put the obstinate metal to some use.

1. Build a logging camp with 6 jungle river on orange circle. Near the mouth of the river and the water leyline rain pours constantly fueling the growth of the jungle. Seeking to exploit this the Scions build a lumbercamp to exploit this perpetual growth.

2. Build a dock on an island with the red circle. Desiring to control the entrance of the river that goes through the center of their heartland. The scions build a dock that would see them control both trade and prevent invaders from crossing the river barrier.

Wealth: Spend 5 wealth on improving popgrowth. A major upset had occurred in the Meeting Hall. The most powerful mages colluded with one another to push an agenda that would officially increase stratification in their society. As a people all of them believe that the strongest mages are the ones most worthy of respect, however this was a much more informal form of soft power that did not come with any inherent privileges. Now such recognition is to be officially rewarded with those recognized as weakest being made servants to those who are strongest. Creating proper mage dynasties whose growth is ensured by their servants and the servants and their families themselves being protected by the most powerful allowing both groups to flourish.

>>5451516

While much in the way of riches and one so far useless metal discovered, further would be prospected in the south by the border while soldiers prepared themselves given news from the north and the lack of a response from the creatures that were south of the capital and north. Naturally, the prospecting likely would be late to aid the inevitable war, but it would be vital for the future and other plans. With regards to martial matters, plans already drawn up to secure the southern border and then ship the soldiers near the capital up to Kovalin and beyond to assist in the conflict that was believed likely to happen with a number of various methods of assisting the Lesh in their fight if possible including a method simply called Li Sivalant Sartium. The Ravager Strategy...

In less martial news, a belief that the people of the Ulodrac were stagnant and content with current methods of mining, smithing, and other similar things lead to some investment into education in the hopes the more wealthy in the capital could provide greater ideas as to what to potentially do to improve the situation, along with to better record and preserve those solutions and improvements to society, industry and military affairs. Ideally, this would pay off in time... Lastly, a portion of the navy unused for the war effort would set sail to explore, while the rest would be considered Lakon Valish, Hunter Vessels. Their efforts being to capture fish for food.

>Action One. Further Prospecting.

>Action Two. University near Pelogra.

>Naval Policy: Exploration x2, Fishing x5. Remaining on blockade/transport duty for the likely war.

Fix for the naval policy, 2 exploration, 3 fishing.

action 1: built a shrine of raimirea in the swamp area in the middle
action 2: expansion into the south using boats and manifestation to transport settler
in the largest swamp area of sarmatia a shrine dedicated to raimeria is built. the focal point of the shrine is a giant carved wooden statue depicting her final moment of the execution with both arms and legs mutilated, eyes gouged and her head pierced by arrows. the amazon perform their worship by offering any kind of beautiful trinkets whether it is a flower they found in the marshes or an intricate wooden dolls and placing it near the statue.

meanwhilea new wave of migration is organized to settle the lands in the south. using the manifestation to transport settlers through the ocean with the intention of scaring/aweing the native population into submission to sarmatian rule.


colony decision: Lie about having found resources to encourage the locals to push on in hope of finding resources liek their ancestors did

slave cooperative: invest 5 wealth into pop growth
males are considered status symbol and precious commodity as only a few of them exist in sarmatia (gender ratio of average sarmatian settlement is 9 female to 1 male). as of right now, only higher ranked sarmatian noble and mages can afford personal male slave. a new initiative is made to make male breeding slaves more accessible to the average amazon by creating a and fudning cooperative that manage male slaves in order to make their price cheaper and easier to manage.

Action 1:
>Found Ougkilo (city)
With the head of the salt beast as their prize the outlander Ougkilor create their city. The city is then organized as a council republic. With the heads of the city's major clans brokering alliances. This is inspired by the yulakh way. With even the local Aarkilo also having some influence in the city... though the Aarkolo mostly stick to the rural regions.

Action 2:
>build farm

Wealth policy: invest 5 more wealth into military power (not much more shall be invested from here...)

(fluff)
In a bid of friendship with the local Aarkolo the Ougkilor help complete a monument for them. Of their father Aark. It features lesser inscriptions detailing how the Ougkilor helped free the Aarkolo from the chains of the salt licker.

The plantation in the west is run by Guknilor with Aarkilor workers. They produce a recently invented luxury: "Tishi Wine". By fermenting Tishi fruit this wine is produced, proving quite popular as most are used to eating plain old tishi.

Colony Action: Cancel Military base and Fort, instead make City of Löwenburg in plains next to cave entrance.
Action 1: Build Fort at cave entrance, it's proximity to Löwenburg giving the city proper walls.
As the southern colony develops, nobles move in, siphoning resources away from other projects in the area, making the city of Löwenburg. However, the eerie caves to the west does worry the nobles as well, with the chittering heard from it every night. So the nobles commission the building of a fort at this cave entrance as well as city walls for Löwenburg. The walls should also help in case any of the nearby volcanoes have a lava spill in their direction.

Action 2: Make university southeast of Waldgard.
The nobles of Waldgard hear good things from the Wolkenburg university, how they discovered the Wolkankraft that is put into every Reichskrone, as well as all their equipment. They want in on this, and so use plenty of the Reichskroner they have recently acquired to fund the building of a university of their own. Furthermore the Erdenfrau cult is hurt by the display of Wolkankraft, and hopes to gain some proof of their own faith.

Tech: Reichsverwaltung, administration of the empire, for the purpose of increasing the effectiveness of wealth policies.
The Wolkenbärte of the Wolkenburg university have debated long and hard, stroking their cloud-white beards, about how best the state would be run. The Kaiser is good, but his means of influencing the nation are weak, it needs to be strengthened, but how. One faction suggests just empowering the administrators, but this is decried for making their power challenge the Kaiser himself, but without a proper alternative it holds dominance, as it does empower the state to make use of the wealth. But then one of the lesser Wolkenbart suggests just hiring more administrators, thus dilluting their power while strengthening the Reich. He fumbles the elaboration but the next day the Wolkenbärte debate the details, hashing out how many new offices are needed and new methods of recordkeeping, before presenting the plan to the Kaiser, who approves it.

Production Policy: Cancel 2x Enchanted Bronze Armour (freeing up 1,5 Prod + 4 Mag, 1.5 Copper + 1 Tin + 3 Hemp).
Produce 2x Enchanted Bronze Pickaxes (1.5 Prod + 4 Mag, 1.5 Copper + 0.75 (+0.25 from rounding) Tin + 1.5 Wood).
The mines have been neglected, but the warriors can go without armour until the bronze supply has been increased.

Wealth Policy: Integrate and indoctrinate the Feymen.
These savages share their heritage to Erdenfrau, thus they will be integrated and taught about her, but lacking the heritage to Wolkanfrau they are less intelligent and thus cannot be trusted to do intellectual tasks. This is evidenced by their lack of metalworking, they are best used for dumb labour, as they will also lack the passion we have.

Reminder: Markets in the wrong place, please fix.

Diplomacy / Policy: Civilians living in the shared region do what they can to drum up support against the murderous Leshyr.

Tech - Horde tactics - you gain a bonus in battle when outnumbering an enemy.

Production Policy: Until further notice, use of the apothecary for aphrodisiac production is halted. Instead, all production will be used for generic luxuries to directly transform production into wealth.

Wealth Policy (5 Wealth ==> Military) - Upon hearing of the slaughter of her people, the Queen finances and officially establishes the Woblobble Self Defense Force (WSDF), the first organized military of Woblobble. Based around conscription, this organized fighting force teaches a simple but unique fighting style based around the ability that slime girls to control the shape of their bodies.

Spell - Bodyshaping, War I - (5 Magic ==> Military + Military Racial Bonus)
Woblobble Biomancers learn how to enhance the slime girl body for peak physical performance and fighting prowess. Step one toward super soldiers.

Spell - Enfeeble (5 Magic ==> Military)
This magic saps the target's strength, making them as weak as a small child. It is temporary, but easy to cast, and effective at disarming those who are reliant on brute strength.

Diplomacy:
The newly formed WSDF, comprised of one hundred percent of the able bodied levies of Woblobble, marches on and occupies the city of Grig, to hold the soldiers responsible for their murder of approximately 2,800,000 innocent civilian slime girls. The soldiers who participated in the genocide will be punished for their war crimes. Regardless of race, anyone willing to support us will be welcome. Furthermore, any elves or anyone else who pledge their citizenship to Woblobble will be a free and equal citizen - there is no slavery in Woblobble.
