Imperia Mobiana

[Brushwaterkhan]

Well I guess I'll stay and see how things go
And since Our orders are being automated it's tome for a little bed time story
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Stahl's office.
"well, this is predicament" Stahl said with a`bit of annoyance in his voice. Stahl was proud that the chaos emerald was found nut as advance as the Helghast were they have yet to perfect both Cloning technology and robotics. Stahl has tried numerous times to talk shadow about the secrets of the emerald and mobius but time after time again, shadow refused to talk. as useful as shadow was to him, he was a very defiant Little thing. What keeps him going,he thought, whats the single thing on his mind that keeps him from falling apart. So far to his knowledge the only known person to have had close contract with him was a man named Robotnik. Bad thing is that Robotnik is dead. but they do know that he has at least one family member still alive. just then a soldier bruted though his door wilding a photo. "sir, we found him" the soldier handed Stahl the photo

"this is the only living family member of the doctor's family" Stahl said with somewhat disgust. the Soldier nodded "yes sir, his name is Snivley Robotnik, the nephew of Ivo Robotnik and last known surviver of the Robotnik dynasty." As Stahl slowly accepted that this midget was the only way to achieve their goals he grabbed the photo and shoved it back in to the soldiers chest. "gather all our troops, tomorrow we'll hunt this man, hunt him and capture him alive." The soldier simply left with a sir and left. "if you won't tell me shadow, then maybe this lackey will'" Stahl said with a disgusting grin.
(@ Taniciusfox, since you didn't mention of Snivley, i figured i use I'm my sub plot, of course if you do have him dead or something else then tell me)

Why not? Roleplaying is the essence of any long-lived forum game.

Catstantine-Spagonian War

Cat raises 4 armies; Spagonia 7.

Catstantinople attacks first, attacking the death stack of 6 units Spagonia has on the border.

10 3
7 7(+1)
4 10

Horrible performance prompts the Emperor to halt an offensive and instead teleport a spare unit to the Spagonian capital.

8 7(+1)

2 armies lost.

With a 7 army lead, Spagonia takes the offensive.

4 armies are ordered to destroy 3.

7 3
9 6
7 10
9 2

1 lost but Cat loses 3 provinces!

5 spare armies are ordered to destroy 2 enemy armies.

5 1
9 5

Using Chaos Control, an army is teleported to an undefended province.

 

[Mathalamus]

*shakes head* catstantinople is making a bad name of Byzantium.

 

[Tani Coyote]

Long Live the Spagonian Empire?

 

[Mathalamus]

yeah, long live the spagonian empire. may they capture Catstantinople capital city without needing to starve it out over twenty years.

Good morning, Commander. Congratulations on your promotion. Welcome to your first day here.

I am General Felida, Consul of the State of Salta. As you are aware, we are trying to pacify the frontiers, which is why you are here. We have been negotiating with the local leaders on the terms of their admission to the Confederation, but there are bandits and extremist elements who are trying to sabotage the process. We've finally got a formal request from the Consul of Parana to intervene with our militias to help them put down the insurgents. We are sending you. Don't disappoint us.

 

[Brushwaterkhan]

Um comand and conquer reference any one?

 

[Tani Coyote]

Sorry everybody, I've been kind of ill so that's reduced my computer time(between bed and the computer really), but I hope not to reach the two week mark with this update.

Shinobi-Venomian War

Venom attacks first with 5 armies.

Shinobi builds up 2 armies, now having 14.

Venom tries to retake their capital; Shinobi get +4 to all rolls.

10 6
10 1
8 3

The remaining 2 armies attack a 4 army stack.

9 1
5 4

1-1.

The Shinobi occupying the capital move, and are followed by an assault on the last Venomian army.

7 6
5 2

The Venomian Army is obliterated SSJ2 Gohan vs. Perfect Cell style.

In total, Venom loses 6 provinces.

 

[Mathalamus]

thank god Venom doesn't have a capital. they are effectively gone now.

 

[Brushwaterkhan]

well, this could be intrasting

 

[Tani Coyote]

Only need to calculate Angel Island and the Dragon War now.

DK has 26 gold; Raiju 36; Yagyu 30.

DK raises 5 armies. Yagyu buy 4 armies and 1 Army tech. Raiju buy 1 Army tech and 3 armies.

The Dragon Kingdom goes first, but they opt to pass for a defensive. Too few armies.

The Raiju move next, surging across the border in huge numbers. They enjoy a +1 to all rolls.

2 attack 1.

8 8. 1 province has fallen.

In a daring raid, 4 Raiju forces attack 4 DK forces in the Dragonian capital.

4 4
6 8
7 10
4 10

Only 1 victory. This sets the Raiju back. 2 Raiju forces are ordered to attack a lone DK force.

6 6

great success! 2 provinces have fallen.

Another assault is ordered elsewhere.

5 3. With that, 4 provinces have fallen.

They stop there, now immensely more powerful, even if the raid on Monjing was reckless.

The Yagyu make their move, sporting 7 armies within attacking range. Only 1 army stands against them.

3 9
8 7

4 provinces are taken.

The Dragon Kingdom has 11 provinces to its enemies' 55. It's goose is as good as cooked.

Angel Island

Spoiler Basics :

You can sponsor any of the factions, each having their own benefits/downsides:

-The Brotherhood will use their powers to make your Chaos Emeralds more potent, so they have +1% chance of producing a Chaos Crystal for each territory they own. So right now, +8%. The Brotherhood will try to steal your ME shards if they reach 50% of the island's mass. You can't get them back short of conquering the Brotherhood. They also give all Master Shards a flat 10% chance of producing a Chaos Crystal.

-The Dark Legion will put 0.2 points towards your tech per turn based on how much land they own. If they reach 50% of the island, they will look outward, trying to steal the Master Emerald shards, and you can't get them back short of conquering the Legion.

-The Dingos are too stupid to have much use. However, they won't try and steal your emeralds either, and may assist you militarily if they triumph.

Every turn the factions will do war with eachother. You do not need to meddle in the Island's affairs if you don't want to. Every faction receives ten armies per turn, or less if they have fewer than ten territories. Your sponsorship will give them extra armies; you can intervene directly on their behalf or just fund them(5 gold per army).

---

Completely separate from sponsorship is hunting for goods like gold, gems, etc. which the Island is full of. It costs 1 gold a try to find riches, with a 10% chance of success; success yields either 1-20 gold or 1-5 Chaos Crystals. To make this fair, anybody with a navy can access Angel Island even if they couldn't reach it otherwise. Your success is upped to 25% if you are sponsoring a faction as their forces will assist you(and of course if you request their help), but you will have to split the booty and thus get the greater half.

---

Emerald Readers: To use a complete Master Emerald, you must recruit either a Legionaire from the Dark Legion or from Albion(the island in the landlocked sea next to Link's nation). You MUST have access to the island to use these.

---

If the Master Emerald is returned to Angel Island, it will rise into the sky and become inaccessible until the Modern Age; everything will also be reset politically. Your vessels, if in the area, will be teleported back home.

Aid:

Dark Legion - Got aid from Tails in 4 PC; +5 from New England in 5 PC(current turn)
Brotherhood - Aid from Adabat in 4 PC; +5 from Mexico in 5 PC(current turn)
Dingos - Screwed over as usual.

The Dark Legion has 17 provinces, and so hands out 3.4 TC in aid this turn to Tails and NE. Aid to Tails will terminate this turn.

The Brotherhood has 21 provinces, and so its bonus is they make every Master Shard act like a Chaos Emerald, with a 10% chance of producing a Chaos Crystal for EACH Shard. The exception is if you own an actual Chaos Emerald, in which case they just pump your chances up by 1% per province. So, right now, whoever owns Chaos Emeralds AND a Chaos Crystal gets +21% to their chances.

---

Straws are drawn, with smallest number going first. The order is the Brotherhood, then the Dingos, and then the Legion.

The Brotherhood no doubt dominates the Island, able to match Dingo and Legion forces on both borders and then some. The Brotherhood also has another issue - New England and Tails are in the border provinces, so if the Brotherhood attacks, these states will use their armies against the Brotherhood automatically.

The Brotherhood orders 4 armies to attack 4.

6 9
7 2
5 9
8 7

3 attack 3. Spectre doesn't care if he's attacking the Tails Empire.

4 2
4 6
9 3

The Legion front remains defensive for a moment, as Spectre orders an assault on the Dingos.

6 armies against 4!

8 9
6 5
2 7
7 7
5 10
10 10

Spectre suffers 2 draws and 3 defeats.

After that, Spectre orders an end to all attacks while reinforcements come from the rear.

The Dingos have gained some defensive strength from the Echidnaopolis Forces, but can't use them to attack. They know a threat when they see one and order units to attack the stacks on the border immediately!

4 3

6 attack 3 next.

5 3
3 9
7 5
4 1

3-1.

At last the Dingos reclaim a province.

Given Dingo folly, however, they continue to pursue hostilities with the Legion.

3 against one -

6 8
7 3

2 against one

4 7
3 8

4 armies go against 3 separate one-army provinces.

10 8
10 6
8 3

Smashing victory is smashing, as the Legion loses its capital. With one free army, the Dingos take a gamble and attack a stack of 3 units.

8 5

Victory!

The Dingos have helped undermine the Legion, their idiocy unable to comprehend exactly what the fall of the Legion will surely mean.

The Legion makes its move. Moritori Rex has to keep his own internal insurgency at bay, knowing he could be as easily overthrown as he did his great-grandson Rutan.

3 armies attack 1-army provinces the Dingos own.

4 1
7 10
2 7

Moritori orders 2 attacks of 2 armies against 3.

8 5
2 2
4 2
3 2

Knowing the Brotherhood will take a province from the Legion, Moritori makes sure to attacks 2 isolated provinces with the help of New England.

7 6
1 3

New England, logically, is given the role of survivor.

The Brotherhood captures 1 province without a battle.

Update

The Year is 6 PC.

The Dragon Kingdom is on the verge of the collapse despite Lightning Lynx's military defeats in places.

Likewise, Venom is on its last legs, with no armies to defend its tiny lands.

Numenor has by far the world's largest GNP, producing 62 billion dollars annually. Its closest competitor is its own trading partner, Shamar, at 57 billion; Numenor is 8.7% larger.

The world's largest gross economy by GDP is a tossup between Numenor, Glassurica and Shamar (49) in third place, Mazuri and Oceania in second (50), and first place is held by Adabat (51). Trading revenues, however, make the difference and this is why Numenor collects the most total GNP.

Events:

The Blue Emerald - owned by the Empire of Tails - has produced 2 Chaos Crystals.

The Green Emerald - owned by Spagonia - has produced 2 Chaos Crystals.

The Brotherhood, of course, beseeches all Chaos Emerald-owning states to support its domination of Angel Island as it can be power up the emeralds. It also asks all ME Shard owners to support it.

Revolts:

2 provinces have revolted against Canis Felis.

Notes:

The Brotherhood's benefits have been tweaked to make them competitive with the Legion.

 

[Double A]

GENTLEMEN

Númenor has the world's largest economy, and does not rely on cheap tricks or fancy crystals to create wealth. I offer 3.6 vault tech gold for the low, low price of 3 gold. Come, get on the King's good side, and make a little money while you're at it!

edit: Alternatively, the purple guys near me can trade that province with the army in it for all 3.6 of my vault tech gold. If they are not interested in the province to the north of that, I will pay them 4 gold for that when they take it. Nothing more to the east will be bought, though.

 

[Double A]

Trade offered to Adabat EDIT: Make that Tails
30 into Econ 6
20 into Military 4
1 army built at each purple spot
remaining gold: 2

Oligarchy adopted!
+10 income

Manorialism adopted!
+5% income

I got my eye on you, Narrow Constitutionalism and Unitary State.

Spoiler :

edit: instead of the northernmost and southernmost claims, I claim the two provinces to the north of my northmost claim (the ones between Shamar and pinkey)

Gold - claims
Red - future claims (please do not violate, because then my borders would look ugly)

 

[Tani Coyote]

You already have trade with Adabat.

 

[Mathalamus]

wow, i mis manage the economy the people are going to fire me.

any nations in range: i offer a trade agreement!

Recruit more armies, place them in undefended areas.
