Triassic Park - A Realism Invictus tale

Oh look it's a Civ'ed story. That's been a while, huh?
This will be played using Realism Invictus' Triassic Earth scenario, which *looks* like it has a pangaea going on, so yay.
It's going to be from the perspective of the Austronesians, under the leadership of Sultan Agung!
Our traits are (two good and one bad)
Legislator
-50% civic upkeep cost
+1 hammer on city plots
+50% construction speed of a unit of which I have no idea what it does
+50% construction speed for courthouse, mayor's office, ministry of justice
Protective, which also gives urban logistics +2, whatever that means (I've never played RI before, I'm in for a treat, huh?)
Isolationist
-25% foreign trade route income
-25% construction speed of harbors and MORE!

our unique units are the Outrigger, a galley unlocked at fishing, and the Prajurit Wirobojo, a rifleman national unit (we only get 6) which has pinch and works well in Jungles.

Our unique buildings are the Vedic temple, a replacement for the pagan temple, which does the pagan temple's culture bonus and also a small science one, and a fishery, which is the fishing dock times 2 (so a food boost)

We also have a unique fishing boat which looks amazing.

We're playing on warlord, with realistic speed.

This is going to be mildly comedic and not a serious history book omg pulitzer prize to the man now AAR.

Our story begins on a small island peninsula thing somewhere in the world...

Yay Cived took my advice to make a story! Subbed!

Consider me officially subbed.

Subbed! An AAR finally.

Looks like Greek managed to convince you huh?

subbed

Hoagied (get it, hoagie, like a sub sandwich, sub )

Heroed (get it, hero, like a sub sandwich, sub )

In a part of Pennsylvania they're called heroes

I will keep an eye on this

Before we start this journey, a quick look at our UUs, UBs, and UIs from a non-me perspective. Distinctive units are more or less reskins with some bonuses. UUs are genuinely only buildable by you.

We found Jakarta in place, because this really isn't going to get any better, and start work on a Sunda Warrior, which you might guess is the Austronesian Warrior.

We start work on metal lore for them mines and also I shall now sob uncontrollably as it turns out I settled a snake.

The situation in Jakarta improves the moment we at least find some copper. It improves so much the cultural reach of the city expands, making millions of fish speak Javanese.

Toolmaking is discovered! This tech is important because it leads to pretty much any form of forest removal in the universe through woodworking, which is needed because everything is forested here.

Huzzah! We're not powerful! That's a good thing right? I mean there's nobody else on these islands... In the background, you can see the outrigger that's getting us out of this place being built.

Woodmaking is discovered, so we can hook up the copper now. It also gives us a militia, which is an improvement over the old sunda warriors. Now all we need is cash.

We hit actual land oh my god finally

Wolves attack our scouts! We win.

...


I decide to name the areas, from top to bottom "crescent moon", "small island", "large island". the starting island is not worthy of its name.

White stuff!

It shall be known as "cold place"

We are now 4% done with the game, and as such, a nice time to stop for now. Here's Jakarta, home of all that is wrong with island starts.

White stuff!

It doesn't sounds good. At all.

Nice job so far!

That gif was terrifying

Goddammit CivBojan, now the old guard will return with more brightly colored avians than ever before.

That's why I've subbed the hell out of this.

Modern Fanatics consider this phrase the start of Parrot War 2.
