ASNES: The best thing since peanut butter and Jelly

Jaques gets on the grapevine and lets people know that if Jaqueline DuBrow thinks he is sexy, she better start "coercing" other nation's generals to the Cause of Normandy.

As far as actual work, Jaques crawls the bar scene looking for a minister type person to serve as a sort of "aide" to Jaques

Alexander's Orders *secret*
Have Boostrap return to Normandy Castle and guard it

Send 1 economies to Boostrap for him to gain another 100 troops, he's to do that and summon the greatest doctors in Normandy to help heal him from his wounds.

Have Alexander spend 1 economy to recruit 100 troops, and Bank the other 1 economy. He is then to advance south with 600 men and attempt to bring that Bandit Lord to justice.
 
I hand over the book to Josef, take the weapons and distribute them among my men, and then head north with Trotsky to attack Ardvand.
 
Update tonight whether or not Norsey gets orders in.
 
OHH YEAH!!!Thanks ole chap!I'll do orders for him and Xen..I hope Xen's alright,I hear bad things about Florida after the havoc of that hurricane.

Maybe Xen got to meet Dubyuh :D

I'll quote him by saying "We've got some mobile homes coming in...We've got some food,and water coming in,the red cross is here...What I'm tellin is that we've got alot of aid coming in"

Maybe not a direct quote...But I deffinetly remember him saying "What I'm tellin",and that sent me rolling with laughter.I respect Bush because he's not a fake president.He stands up for the might of America,and isn't afraid to use his southern accent while doing it.

BUSH '04!

Events

Alexander leads his men into the bandit king's lair.The Bandit King charges through their ranks and almost gets to Alexander,but Alexander stood behind a trap,and the bandit king was quickly aprehended,and soon after the bandits fled.<Alexander lost:40 men>+Captured bandit king+

Elric wastes a gold coin!He splits a gold coin in half and sais "I want half a gold worth of ships".What he didn't expect is the people about to make the ship scratching their head and wondering what the hell they were going to do with half a gold.So he ended up throwing the gold coin away,and spending another gold in the construction of hims navy.

Jared and Leon go out against Ardvand,and almost suddenly Ardvand is pushed back.Jared rushed forth with his army,and found himself under ambush.The ambush wasn't led by Ardvand though,but bye an officer of his, "Castrild".Castrild seems to be in control of all of Ardvand's forces,and is ruthless in his ambush of Jared's forces,and if it weren't for Leon reinforcing Jared in the form of surrounding the surrounding enemy,Jared might have been routed.Ground is gained by King Josef's men,and Castrild's men are somewhere to their north.
<Jared lost:380 men><Leon lost:80 men><Castrild lost:340 men/200 spears>

Taa'u got over his illness and the trek to the most southern point of Itally is a success.And a mistress is impregnated.

Elric got rejected on his counter offer to Eruli

Excerpt from Prince Elric's personal journal

12th April 701 AD

'Something starnge has happened, I ordered my soldiers to march to the docks and order 1 or 2 gold worth of ships built - enough to carry 200 men, but as the orders were in writing, they didn't understand that 1/2 meant 1 or 2 instead of a half. This really shows the lack of education in my army.

It also appears that the palace servants have nicknamed my son w00t, I shall have to discourage this as his real name Irion al'Elric is much more dignified.

In any case, I have ordered Dus'Mordis to begin building a castle at her present location, this will give my realm greater security. Meanwhile I shall take some troops and sail to the isl of Sicilia in my attempt to expand my Princedom.

A warrior approached me, saying he would train me for 2 gold, I shall give him 1 now and 1 when the training is completed.'

Orders:

Dus'Mordis begins construction on a castle at her present location.

Elric accepts the travelling warrior's offer and asks whether he would like to become a General in Elric's army. If he accepts, send him with 200 men (100 swords, 100 spears) on the ships to Sicily where he is to land and set up camp. If he refuses, Elric is to sail to Sicily with the troops and be trained on the way. The castle is to be ruled by my Mistress as Guardian of the Prince and advised by my senior officers and the town council.

Rename my son!
 
I've never done one of these before but would like to try, if it's not to late I would like to join since it doesn't seem like its too deep into the game yet.

Bremen Castle

By mid-spring it was clear that the Kingdom of Bremen needs two things, a better army and a port. This resulted in JtW ordering JtH north-west in search of a possible harbour. Meanwhile back in the castle the two remaining Johanns decide their army required something new, something that would set them apart from their neighbors, horses.

It was decide that they would aquire over 200 for the army, on top of this the 200 troops that would use these horse would need more training.

Orders:

JtW :
  • Buys a set of horses with 4 gold and gives them to JtnsW
  • Gives 100 men and 100 swords to JtH
JtnsW :
  • Trains his 200 men to be the best in Europe
JtH :
  • Searches for new territory to the north-west using 100 men
 
Jaques finds interest in the local markets trading goods when he finds a hood that was "imported" from England. He finds such a garment rather stylish, and begins wearing it. Soon, other people in the fasion know are wearing similar copies and a select few are wearing authentic English hoods too. Noticing that people in France liked to feel more important than they are, Jaques issues a decree that all noblemen will own a hood to set themselves apart from the commoners.

At the same time, being a businessman, Jaques begins producing lower quality copies by employing starving peasant children, thereby improving the hunger and unemployment situation in Normandy.

Jaques then seels the copycat hoods at his various taverns as "England-ish" hoods, giving all the taverns an unneeded boost in class, with the exception of the Puking savage, which remains a tavern for hard-working no-frills type guys.

The new hoods have everyone wondering what Jaques NEXT clothing idea will be, only time (and profits) will tell.

Jaques orders for Need Ledick:

Take one gold, go as far south as our land extends, and begin another tavern. Make it friendly to the locals, not just Normandians, we need to establish a good rapport with them. If that means starting some more sinful enterprises along with it... well Madame DuBrow can give you some pointers on that...
 
Ovulator (lol...Nice name) are you going to swim to Alexandria?If not,spend a turn building ships first.But,don't take my word for it,I'm only the mod ;).
 
Roddy Orders
ooc - right now my "name" is "Roddy(Roddy)". Could you change that to "Lord Roddy(RoddyVR)", lol. thanks.

Lord Roddy (18politic, 18charm) - Hire 500 men. i'm not 100% sure of the cost here. i assume its 5 gold, but then shouldnt some attribute have an effect on this? got 18 of both politics and charm. anyway, if its affected by any attribute, then just spend less gold, but still get the 500 men.

Jerkov (18 politic) - Buy 280(100+180) Horses for 4 gold, Buy 280 Spears for 1 gold.
this makes my army consist of 250 Archres, 250 swordsmen, 250 spearmen, 250 Riders (unarmed for now, gotta learn to ride first)
Toshka (17Leader) - Train the army.
 
Hmm, from watching other people it didn't seem necesary for some reason. But duly noted.

But don't I need gold reserve to build galleys? Help me out with the exact rules here.

If I can I will pump all available resources into constructing galleys to start my navy and my eventual quest to Alexandria, if I have to wait for gold to stockpile first I will search for a officer on my home island of Crete as it seems to be the only free thing to do.
