Ok, here's the summary!
210 BC - In the year 210 BC, a new Shogunate rose to power - the Kojiro Shogunate. Their plan is to expand the military and border. A general review of the infrastructure reveals that Nagoya is still to be connected, and Kagoshima now remains stagnant at size 1. The only way to make The Great Library is in the Middle Ages with the Monotheism-->Theology-->Education techs, but this route is a far longshot
190 BC -
Rinkon-san made contact with us, and offered contact with the French, but at a cost of 46 gold, more than we could afford; our diplomat was forced to decline the offer after several failed negotiation attempts. This ronin of a leader drives a hard bargain. I fear he's pushing his luck with us.
Our diplomat then contacted the Zulus and acquired contact with the Russians for 22 gold, and maps.
GOOD NEWS!!
Our diplomat has successfully acquired map making (The Great Lighthouse!) and mathematics from the Russians in exchange for World Maps!! Maybe these Russians are a potential friend... A fine ceremony is planned for this diplomat.
On inspection of the eastern border, a mysterious red border has appeared! Fortunately, not on our continent. My advisors tell me that it is the Babylonians. In other news, according to the Histogram gallop poll, we are now 2nd for total score (by one point)!
Our other elite warrior has spotted a barb hut to the south of Kagoshima! He will have to wait another turn to attack, though.
170 BC -
Edo has produced settlers, which are on their way south, to the furs. The barb camp has been found, and 25 gold was gained! Some micromanagement was also done to speed up production and save gold.
150 BC -
Nothing of major importance
130 BC -
More barb activity to the north. Mighty strong one, too! Elite warrior will rest the next turn. Cracked the whip on Sekigahara for the granary (they're growing in 2 turns anyway). Next is The Great Lighthouse!
110 BC -
Sekigahara started The Great Lighthouse! The Elite northern warrior is resting. General unit movement.
90 BC -
Settler is now in place.
70 BC -
Izumo has been founded. Another settler is headed to the west of Tokyo. Whipped Nagoya into building a temple. (What a ruthless age, huh?
)
50 BC -
General unit movement.
30 BC -
General unit movement and micromanagement.
10 BC -
Northern elite warrior is healed, and spotted the barb camp!
10 AD -
Northern elite warrior has bashed his way through the barb camp, and spots a barb galley!
Uh oh, Persian ship spotted off our coast! Yikes! Atleast one regular is on board! There may be a settler... Ship contacted, and we gained Code of Laws for 3 gold and a World Map (What a bargain!). Let's hope it doesn't decide to land).
30 AD -
Nagasaki founded. Corruption is vast in Izumo. Nara is stagnant.
50 AD -
The Babs are building the colossus! Ours will be done in 4 turns!
70 AD -
Northern elite warrior finds another barb coming from the south! Warrior wins as usual.
90 AD -
The Zulus have established an embassy with us! A massive barb uprising has also been spotted near Satsuma!!
110 AD -
Northern Elite Warrior fends off 2 barbs, but sadly succumbs to the third. He shall be avenged! On a brighter note, the colossus will be completed in the next turn!
130 AD -
Other warrior spots 5 barb horsemen north of Satsuma! One barb spotted south of Osaka. Osaka also completed the Colossus! However, the Russians have started their Lighthouse!
BAD NEWS!
Persian city spotted in the Tundra to the south of Nara and Izumo! Things are heating up! (no pun intended)
150 AD -
Spearman from Satsuma fends off 5 barb horsemen and becomes elite!!! HUGE barb uprising below Osaka! Osaka whips out a Spearman for the next turn.
170 AD -
More barbs at the gates of Osaka! An additional spearman is created to back the original one up!
190 AD -
Osaka spearman valiantly fends off a slew of barb horsemen and becomes elite! Barbs destroy the road improvement where they were standing. Another warrior to the north fends off the last of the barb hoard!
