MinionNESs I: A New Beginning

other notable cities. For examlpe, the modern U.S.A. would have Washington DC as a big square, and then L.A., Chicago, NYC, and a whole horde of others as small squares.

Currently, they include Alexandria, Neopollis (Naples), and Manchester.
 
From Danubian Celts to Gaullic Celts:
I would like to merge our two nations in one common cause. After all, we are all Celts. So what do you say, two similar peoples under one government.

Just as the earlier urbanization occured in the Celtian capital, the eastern expansion is in need of a central city. Also the growing country is in need of a road system to accommodate trading. Story telling has elevated to the point where a man named Author invented a standardized writing system. It is used in a cultural sense in literature and in an economical sense to keep track of trading. The one problem is, the language of the Celts is not yet standardized. So the systems do not spread far past capital. Another happening in Celtia is in the scientific community. Wise-men have began to ponder uses of metal. One idea is to make a large plate that can shield attacks by enemies. They can be used in tandem with the axes and spears used currently.

ORDERS:
Expand in all directions but more towards the east.
Build the city of Saarbrucken at the location of western army.
Send eastern army north to investigate rumors of nation to the north.
Celebrate in all of Celtia for victory over eastern menace.
Begin researching swords and shields.
 
OOC: Finally i have some spare time to create a story for this NES.

The people of the Seminole tribe were a peaceful people, wanting only the best things in life and shunning destruction and war. Even the religion of the Seminoles was based around peace and prosperity (will describe later). The Seminoles were not foolish however, and they realized that they would need a military to protect themselves from aggression. The Seminole way of peace was attractive to surronding tribes which soon began to want to join the Seminole nation.

DIPLOMACY

To: Surronding Tribes
From: Seminole Tribe

We are glad you wish to join, and we think we should create a fair and just Tribal Confederacy to unite all the tribes of the world in peace. Each tribe would send its own representative to the Confederate Conciel and will decide what is best for the tribes.

ECONOMIC ORDERS

Accept entry of other tribes into the nation, and change the name of the nation to Tribal Confederacy.
Grow Culture

MILITARY ORDERS

Send the army north to inform other tribes of the peacefulness of the Tribal Confederacy. They are not to attack any local tribes but ask them to join peacably.
 
more OOC: Perhaps you should either slow down the passage of time or increase amount of land in expansion. It seems to be going quite slowly.
 
ooc: exactly how far can these canoes go not accross the pacific right
 
The state of Jerusalem was finally established. Judea was created with the first king Soloman and his advisors it would flourish from being a small farming town to a metropolish merchant palace, being the forefront of the Great Lake, or nicknamed by the Egyptians as the Meditteranean. Soloman soon directed the army to continue it's march south through the deserts where a suspected nation flourished among a never-ending stream of water.

ORDERS
Send the army southwest along the coast, through the Sinai. Be sure to bring plenty of water, and leave water depots along the way to use on the way back.
Recruit a new army that will travel north and conquer the city of Tripoli on the way.
 
Egypt

Saladin was happy with the expansion, army, and economy as all were doing quite well in all aspects.But rumors were groing of many tribes all around the Egyptians.This caused some concern for Saladin. While he did not know wheather they would peaceful or other wise it would be better to be safe about it. He would then increase the army and continue the rapid expansion.


Orders

increase army (put it by alexandria)
in north expand east and west along the medditteranean coast
expand south along the nile building small towns along the way
also in the south expand east and west , use camels and bring many supplys for this
 
I expand slowly because in history empires didn't expand that fast, but if you guys want, I can expand a lot faster. It's up to you.

JTK, isnt Tripoli in Northern Africa :confused:

And human-slaughter, that's why I'd really like it if you picked another nation, like the Inca or Aztecs or something. Hawaii is too damn small. Although yes, I guess I'll let those boats be able to cross the Paciffic. However, if you establish colonies, communication between them and honolulu will be hard.

Edit: Whoah! Death, we were born on the exact same day in the exact same year!
 
Peace had been made between the Etruscans and the Romans and the Etruscans were as every bit a Roman as your average inhabitant of the capital. Trade was flourishing and the Empire was splendid. All that was need was knowledge of the land to the north...

ORDERS:
Upgrade economy through more trade with Etruscans and during expansion.
Keep expanding north/south with an army each direction

OOC: You both are young'ns. ;) Well actually, I'm only two months older....
 
"Thrace, Corinth, Lydia, arrgh Im about to driven insane!!" said a very frustrated Emperor Justinian. " Tell the Thracians to back off! They have no business bossing us around. And, continue to cautiously approach Greece"

"Anything else Emperor?"

"Yes. Expand with armies down into Anatolia." Justinian tapped his fingers on the throne.


To: Thrace
From: Byzantium

We will put our armies wherever we please. We will sign your NAP.

To: Lydia
From: Byzantium

Obviously your people are smart, strong warriors. We have the economics in place, while you have the military. Why cant we join rather than fight a useless war in which noone will win. Afterall, we're all Anatolians.

Orders
- build army in Anatolia, more to the south
- expand with the army into the Southern Mountains (rich in copper) that are not under Lydian control
- expand cautiously into Greece with the nearby army
 
Arabia
Muhammed continued to lead his forces north, expanding the borders of the nation, but he also decided to build temples, the first basic religious sites of islam were being built, these brought more happines to the people and the culture increased across the land of arabia, rumors of people on the north began, and curious explorers went on north.
---Salt.
As the arabs moved, they discovered a strange mineral in high quantities, salt, this mineral was much more presious than gold itself! it was used to preserve meat, a very imporant thing in the ancient world.

Orders:
increase culture
expand north as in map
 
England

"Yes Sir, what does your heigness need??"

I told my Military officer and granted him fine coffee for his magnificant victories.

"Thank you Sire, your compliment means alot to me"

I told him that more troops are going to be needed and I wanted a recruit to begin today.

"He hurried out of the room after understanding what I said"

Our nation of two states will grow and become more as people enter our territory. We see sea all around us and want to travel on them, the only way to do so is to build ships, yes, ships, though to colonize with those ships, we need more men. This is what we are to do, get more men.
 
BTW, arent I supposed to have TWO armies on the field???? If so, which I should, this is my expansion map.

Orders:
Do expansion as above
increase army in Honolulu
 
About expansion...why is everyone complaining when Minion does slow expansion, but when Jason does the same, no one complains? Jason has a reason and it is valid reason, and I'm sure Minion has the same one or a close run. Besides, it's fun to have parts of the map unfilled because it allows for a great colonization competition later on.
 
EXACTLY! (and trust me, naervod, I got lots of complaints during the early stages of stjnes5)

SLOW EXPANSION! or should we say REALISTIC EXPANSION!

That is the number one reason i joined this game is because its more like stJNES5, which is an attempt to be realistic in expansion!

YES TO REALISTIC EXPANSION! :).

Jason
 
i dont mind the speed it goes per turn, but at least could you slow the turns down to 50 years?
