Man, I feel like I just played the Illiad. Total playing time for this set was just under two hours and I only played eight turns. "But we're at peace," you might scream at me. "Yes," I would reply, "for my inherited turn, we were at peace." Thirty-eight screenies later, I write this report, utterly drained of any desire to do so. Never fear, oh RNGod-fearing minions. I will do my duty nonetheless.
And that's where we'll begin. Duty. Up, I step, to worship at the feet of His Holiness, RNGod. First some prayer. "Tell me, Oh Great One, what would You have of Your humble servant?" Then speaketh The Lord. "There shall come a time when the coffers of His minions shall overflow. And it shall be good."
Translation: Increase (1d6)x100 gold
Thus continueth The Lord. "Ten and ninety sheckles. Abundance, for seven fat cows come up from the river."
And it shall be good. "Very well," I respond. "It shall be as You command, oh Great RNGod, of Whose words I am not worthy." For the record, here's where I started.
Thus (annoyingly) continueth The Lord. "And don't forget that other one."
And there arose much confusion amongst the minions. "Tell me, oh Great One, I beg of Thee. What is this 'other one' of which my thoughtless intellect cannot comprehend?"
There then arose a great calamity, as heaven opened up, and his wisdom rained forth. "GET SOMETHING FOR FREE, *******!"
Oh yeah. Shouldn't be too hard. Just have to swing low, right?
Okay, swing a little lower...
Dang gummit! Who's a guy gotta blow to get something for free around here? Okay, we've exhausted our "friends" time to flex a little muscle.
All RIGHT!!! Sweet, sweet victory. And still on my inherited turn. Slam dunk. RNGod loves his minions! Woo Hoo! And just to prove I'm not a total prick, I'll reciprocate.
Okay, business done, time to roll up some more beautiful random goodness.
18 Add (1d6)+10 xp to a single unit
Add 14 XP to a single unit. Time to complete a tribal objective is given by (1d6)x5 + 20
30 turns to give someone an extra 14 XP. Blech. And at the starting line...
We have 278 turns left in the game. So, by 248 turns left (whatever the hell year that is), we need...
...that guy to have 53 XP.
Stage is set. Let's get rocking.
