Marians: Sons of Mars

The update shall come soon, but first, a question to all players: Which religion should come next: Shintoism or Sunni Islam?
 
Islam... For the rollplay opertunitys alone! :P if I get it I may start a holy war with Taoism
 
Keep in mind Shintoism can be established anywhere, but Islam can only be established in an area in contact with Catholicism or Judaism... :p
 
Make that Shintoism then! :)

Succession

Qin Dynasty's ruler has died. 44/56 for Na-Na-Nine and Korea. Korea inherits, Na-Na-Nine contests the inheritance. A new succession war has started in the East.

Astrakhan's ruler has also died. Novgorod, as a result of this, has inherited the throne, and furthermore, has also inherited the Persian throne by merit of its Astrakhani position!

Taoism

Deseret - 5; being considered the true Holy Land by some believers, Taoism has naturally found some converts in Deseret's vast domains.

Aztecs - They converted last turn. 22 provinces now have a 27% chance of revolt. All those that don't have a 10% chance of conversion(+50% for being pagan). 10 revolts occur. 11 provinces convert to Taoism.

Canada -
New England - 1
Caribbean - 7; the Caribbean's pro-pacifist policies have attracted many moderate Taoists there.
Amazon -
Antilles - 1
Colombia -
Maracaibo - 7

Gain - 32 provinces

Islam

Islam has been founded by a prophet in Iberia. The Imperador of España, intrigued, accepts this new faith! Islam will be a dark shade of green on the religious map.

Islam believes their prophet to be the last of all prophets sent by a single monotheistic God, the same God believed in by Christians and Jews. They acknowledge all the other prophets, but consider their religious as the purest and truest to God's will. Islam, with its base holy books and many religious scholars, has opinions on everything from daily manners to governance as much as it does proper worship. Islam acknowledges Christians and Jews as people of the book(following the same God but with some corruption of belief), and as such, tends to give them benefits over other non-believers.

Iberia comes first. Madrid converts instantly, but the remaining provinces all have a 32% RR. That's 46 provinces. 20 provinces are Hindu, 6 Buddhist, and 20 pagan. 9 Hindu provinces revolt. 3 Buddhist provinces revolt. 5 pagan provinces revolt. A whopping total of 17 revolts! Yikes. :cry:

2 Hindu provinces convert. 7 pagan provinces convert as well. That's a net gain of 10 provinces so far.

Islam can now spread to Carthage, Morocco, Mali, Nubia, Germany, Austria, and Albion. Poland and Serbia too.

Carthage -
Morocco -
Mali - 1
Nubia -
Germany -
Austria - 1
Albion - 2
Poland - 1
Serbia - 1

Total Gain - 16 provinces.

---

Now that France has converted to Hinduism, there's a 20% chance of revolt in all provinces. Those that don't revolt have a 10% chance of joining Hinduism. 8 provinces can revolt. 3 revolt. The remaining 5 do not convert. At the very least, France can now use a religious CB.

----

Announcement:

Battle rolls are now made within the range of 1 to 29.

Damnit, did it again. Bloody incomes are incorrect.

Iberia - 86.6
Nubia - 67
Deseret - 36
Rome - 35.
Germany - 73
Caribbean - 52
Amazon - 86
Canada - 45
 
Albion has no new expansions, but asks Norway for a Right of Passage.

We invest money into Civics.
 
Thats much better! I didnt think I was that far behind :) Iberia is going to be a powerhouse soon.

Please put 68 income into civics (Civ 8 completed and 2 gold into civ 9), and the rest into the treasury (20 gold).

Claims: The remaining territories in northern SA (should be 5).

I offer the Antilles, Colombia, and Maracaibo vassalage, and inform them that accepting will earn them gifts of land and money, my protection, and trade agreements, but declining will give me good reason to absorb them (and give their territory to those who do accept the protection of the Amazon.

Oh, don't you dare. Antilles is already a vassal of MINE.

38 into Army, build another Navy off Hispanola, move the existing one back to where it started, and put whatever's left into Diplo.

EDIT: How many National Powers can I have right now? I just checked and I think it's 2 - so when exactly am I allowed to choose them?

Norway accepts.

Colombia and Maracaibo politely decline. The Antilles, meanwhile, assure Amazon that they are not afraid of the rainforest-dwellers, given that they have the friendship and protection of the great Caribbean Empire.

You can have 1 for every 5 Civics levels you have, provided you have the separate prerequisites.

East Rome puts 6 gold into Civics, rest into Military, and converts to the religion that is blue on the religious map (Judaism?)

Correct!
 
Iberia claims 2 provinces in Africa.

Rebellions and their Responses

East Rome converts to Judaism. 10 provinces are Hindu and thus have a 24% chance of rebellion. 3 provinces revolt. The remaining 7 have a 10% chance of conversion. 1 converts to Judaism.
