JalNES II: Quicker and Easier

oh, what's that mean?

From the linked-to post:

Societal Entropy. Societies grow, change, live, and die. You are encouraged to take the precautionary measure of inventing alternative fates for your societies such as fracturing into disparate but similar groups. Controlled self-destruction on your end is likely to be less of a shock than the alternative, and will force you to think in a more realistic fashion.
 
sorry, can't send orders until 4:00 afternoon.

Also: So we are encouraged to splinter up our empires into different but similar states? Interesting.
 
Orders sent, soon as I could sorry. Today the tractor ran out of battery power just after we had finished loading 200 odd idiot sheep that piss and poo everywhere...everywhere!
 
I currently have a grand total of 2 orders. Come on, guys. This is pathetic.
 
Ha, thats how awesome I am. I really struggled to get them, yet I still beat most.

bonus? please? :mischief:

Perhaps. Note that the other nation to get orders in so far was Hyksos, so it probably won't help you much...
 
OOC: I thought orders were due in a few hours!

EDIT: I mean, I just got off work and all... >_<
 
The new Hadir.

General Shadin stood in front of the crowd of followers. Originally a slave, Shadin had helped to lead the slave revolt years before. He had in his hands a papyrus scroll, from which was written the new laws of the day.

"On this day," his voice boomed out over the crowd, and everyone stopped making noise, so they could hear their new leader's speech, "Hadir will finally be a true, free city. As well as across the new Hyksos empire, all men shall be free!" cheers erupted from the crowd, and the general stood, smiling, waiting for the wave to die down. Once the people had quieted, he cleared his throat and began again. "Any man born of Hadirian or Hyksos lineage shall be free. This includes any slaves that are of Hadirian or Hyksos lines already." Again, more cheering. General Shadin had the might of the majority of the people on his side, but he knew the old citizens and aristocrats would be a thorn in his side for years to come.

Already his men had started ransacking the old upper class districts and homes. Money was taken, gold, jewelry, any thing of worth was, by direct order of General Shadin, confiscated, for the good of the Empire, of course. With over 70% of the population on his side, the old snotty aristocrats had no chance to fight back. Instead, they were forced to face their new lives in bitter hatred and anger. Farms and lands were granted to ex-slaves and freedmen, who now employed those who used to work for them. The whole social structure of the old Hadir Unicus Empire had been turned upside down. Everyone was affected by it, that is, except the priests of Unicus. Even General Shadin couldn't convince the people to overthrow the corrupt, greedy, evil demons that ran their faith. But now with everything turned on its head, at least the higher up in Unicus had no more wish to run the nation. They let that fall upon the shoulders of General Shadin and the others across the empire. Unicus was content on sitting back, scaring the people into paying tribute, and enjoying the new found freedoms of not having to manage an entire civilization.

Though he was sure the nation would unite over time, the General knew it would not happen in his lifetime, or even that of his children's. Only time would tell how long it would take to make Hyksos the greatest nation the world had ever seen.
 
People should keep sending orders, because I only have 5 at the moment.
 
Gah - went somewhere unexpectedly today and didn't get back online in time. I guess that's okay, because all I really needed to do was plan an epic death, which jal seems to do pretty well on his own anyway (:D), and then drop out for an update or two, 'cause the next week is starting to look pretty hectic. Sorry about that.

If you have time, feel free to send me something, because with the amount of material I have at the moment I'm not even starting the update tonight.
 
Banned by mom: use notes:

Zhou Collasped to barbarian Wei Invasion. Generals and such took over towns of the coutryside and establish Zhouish culture and small empires. It is an age of literature and war. Of Epics and defeats. Eventually Wei established a Zhouish kingdomg hugging the Yellow Rivver. Guo is overrun then will assimilate a nation called Shi before comming back (yeah, toying with you). New Zhou appears : g2g! Bye!

New Zhou appears south and expands against a weakening Wei. The 2 centuries end with a barbarian power losing the bronze and jade mines. New Zhou more powerful than before, and aabout 3 or 4 other powers from the collapse.

(yeah, I am screwing myself but hey! Fun is fun!)
 
@jal, I'm very sorry. This is the first order deadline I missed ever! :( I'm not having a good night. If the window is still open, I can send orders in about 18 hours time when I next get online. For once I'm glad that some others have not sent orders :o
 
Deadline postponed until 9 PM EST tomorrow. You have <20 hours. Please don't make me extend the deadline again.
 
Epic-length societal entropy orders duly sent, template for desired next nation also sent. Thanks for the extension, jal.
 
Okay, I have orders from everyone except Littleboots (who I've given up on), Vertinari, and Dreadnought. So, while I work on the Middle East and India, they should feel free to send orders.
 
I just realized that I greatly neglected social entropy...ahh well. :sad:
