RB30 - Open SG - Irrational Isabella

Umm....what personality did you roll? I have no idea based on your report

Yeah, I had no diplomacy initiated except Peter asking for the world map, so I didn't have much to go on.

As Kodii mentioned, it's in the spoiler.

Isabella got out of her palatial sized bed and thought that she would change the Empire, the mighty Spanish Empire, quite a lot today. in fact, she was feeling different about all of those military civics: i mean, who really needs a canon with 8 experience straight off the bat. Well me, she thought. But i already have lots of lovely experienced canons and those men on horses with guns. i already have lots of them. So it is time for a change, a big change:

Before:

Finances have improved:

Isabella didn't care much about railroads, but she really enjoyed the new weapon, which just happened to have been given to her on her birthday party. 8th Wonder was forced to be evacuated due to Isabella unnatural love of heavy duty mini guns. later she was very proud of her antics and therefore enacted the mini gun militarisation law: mini guns were to be confined to military personnel only, not to save her citizens from her manic rampages, but so that millions of Aztecs and Indians could be slaughtered. bwahahaha!!!

Spoiler :
we/i/us/them have issues. sorry for the lack of pix. there's all sorts of units all over to activate and go on the warpath. The economy needs work. I may have drafted a bit much. 13 turns. 2*5 = theocrat, change religion

The blinding, searing pain was gone! No throbbing, no shooting pains! LACKEYS, REWARD THE ROYAL PHYSICIAN!

Hearing the voice of his mistress, the foreign minister slithered into the room. "Milady, I have the most disturbing news."

":cool: Have a :beer: dear friend. Celebrate the departure of the cephalagia."

"Milady, Asoka's emissary has brought word of a Great Scientist in his lands. Carl Friedrich Gauss"

":cool: Hire Herr Gauss immedjutly. Have another :beer:"

"Er, milady, he will is not willing. Your, er, 'reputation' doth proceed you."

"WHAT REPUTATION? DO I GO ABOUT SPREADING VILE RUMORS ABOUT THE SIZE OF THE VARIOUS MEMBERS? Dammit, I must think. Get me another :beer:"

"As you wish, madame."

A vein throbbed accross her forhead. A twinge of pain shot between Bella's eyes. Seeing her expression, the lackey prepared to die and prostrated himself. "LACKEY, IS IT A GOOD DAY TO DIE?"

"Please most merciful ruler..."

"WHY ARE WE LETTING OLD 'FEATHERS ON THE HEAD' CAPAC DICTATE OUR RELIGION?"

"Pleeeez madame, spare me..."

"SHUT UP! We/I/Them must think. Get We/I/Us another :beer:" The pain was returning. It was building. It reached a crescendo. "WE WILL NOT BE RELIGIOUS LACKEYS OF CAPAC!" "Alert the priests. We will be Hindu."

Bella paused to breathe and to sample the spring hops. "But first I hear the sound of a new band. Bring the minstrel before me/us/them."

"By your leave, majesty."

"JUST DO IT, YOU TOAD!"

The band appeared. They sang:

"i am still living with your ghost
lonely and dreaming of the west coast
i dont want to be your down time
i dont want to be your stupid game
with my big black boots and an old suitcase
i do belive ill find myself a new place
i dont want to be tha bad guy
i dont want to do your sleepwalk dance anymore
i just want to see some palm trees
i will try to shake away this disease"

they were singing just for Bella. Indeed it seemed as if they had been divinely inspired to sing her song.

"we can live beside the ocean
linger far behind
swim out past the breaker
watch the world die"

"we can live beside the ocean
linger far behind
swim out past the breaker
watch the world die "

yes, the little voices inside our/mine/her little head were reaching a consensus thanks to the minstrels.

They cut straight to the source of her pain:
"i am still dreaming of your face
hungry and hollow from the pain you took away
i dont want to be your good time
i dont want to be your fallback crutch anymore
walk right up you brand new day
your same horizon in my own wearedway
i dont want to be tha bad guy
i dont want to do your sleepwalk dance anymore
i just want to feel some downside
i just want to find some place to be alone"

"TAKE THAT MR. FEATHER HEAD CAPAC", she screamed in delight. "YOU TOO, YOU OVERLY ORGANIZED ASOKA!"

The band played on:
"we can live beside the ocean
linger far behind
swim out past the breaker
watch the world die"

"THE WAY IS CLEAR!"

"Madame?"

"IDIOT!"

Frozen with fear, the band played on:
"oh!
yeah, watch the world die
yeah, yeah watch the world die
wooah, yeah, watch the world die"

"YES. YES. YES. THAT IS IT. WATCH THE WORLD DIE! LACKEY SUMMON THE MESSANGERS. SEND FORTH THEM FORTH."

"At once, Madame."

"AND BRING ME ANOTHER :beer:."

"At once, madame."

"Find out if Feather Head will kill Sal and Monty for the secrets of collectivism and biology. He has been a most pliable fool thus far."

"Madame, he agrees."

"Good. Let us/me/them watch the world die."

"See if Lizzy agrees to the same deal. Her boobs were always bigger than her brains."

"She agrees, milady."

"GOOD. Get me another :beer: WE'VE GOT 2 INFANTRY? WHAT'S UP WITH THAT? LACKEY, START CONSCRIPTING THE PEEPS. "

"WHO SCATTERED MY CAVS? "

Her head starting to spin from the :beer:, Bella calmed down a bit, ordered that the slaves be freed and the people be let free to vote on various unimportant issues.

An emissary appeared. "That hat is so yesterday. Go away you annoying troll. Before you do, compensate us for the affront to our eyes."

The hapless lackey returned, slithering into the throne room. "Milady, a great scientist is birthed."

"TWIT. GO BREED MORE OF THEM. DO WE/I/US HAVE TO DO ALL THE THINKING?"

"WHY CAN'T I BUILD THINGS QUICKLY. GO MAKE THOSE SPECIALISTS MAKE REAL THINGS INSTEAD OF WHATEVER IT IS THEY DO!"

"I... WISH... TO... SOAR... ABOVE MY COMPETITION. MAKE IT SO."

"Milady."

"WHAT?"

"Feather Head needs help with Sal."

"MAKE IT SO. BRING ME ANOTHER :beer: "

"Milady.

"WHAT NOW?"

"Lizzy needs help with Sal."

"DIDN'T WE ALREADY COVER THIS? KILL HIM FOR HIS UGLY HAT!"

"Milady?"

"Your life hangs by a thread, lackey."

"Milady, our machines can take to the skies."

"I CAN FLY."

The wise, sensitive, self-disciplined and fair Isabella, queen of Spain and (soon to be) ruler of the world had a night plagued with nightmares.

When she finally awoke, she had strange feeling in her head. It was quite hard to pinpoint, but it sort of felt like her rulership had covered almost 6000 years in a very short timespan.

Aside from these peculiar thoughts, she was in a very good mood.
She knew exactly what cure Spain needed to continue it's journey towards global domination.

And as always, what was good for Spain was indeed good for Isabella.

The last years had been to focused on Military buildup, Religious squabbels and government changes.

To lay the foundation for future expansions, Spain needed to construct buildings instead of military. Especially buildings that improved Spains financial position.

With the recent discovery of flight, Isabella decided that airports should be constructed as soon as possible, in every city of Spain.


http://forums.civfanatics.com/uploads/105539/RB30_2.JPG

Some of the most recent "acquisitions" to the Spanish empire needed guidance into the magnificent Spanish culture though. To deal with this, theatres were acquired, which immediately were occupied by entertainment specialists.

A most peculiar thing happened during Isabellas first year of this mandate period. The mysterious Inian Asoka asked for right of passage through Spain. Isabella of course, refuted this request.

Due to the last years intensive drafting of military conscripts, quite a few of Spains cities were in a slight state of civil unrest. Isabella did not want to slow down on the scientific output to build culture to deal with this problem. Instead, she ordered her state architects to construct temples and colosseums in the most troubled cities.

In 1831 AD, the Spanish scientists discovered how to tame and use the powers of electricity.


http://forums.civfanatics.com/uploads/105539/RB30_4.JPG

An emissary brought news that Huayna Capac had executed some disturbing changes to his government. Isabella was not exactly pleased by the idea that the everlasting friend, Huyana, would eventually become her enemy.
Isabella thus decided that Spain would be better of, worshipping the same god as the Incans. Spain once again became Jewish and Huayna, once again, became friendly.

Despite Isabellas decision to focus on constructing buildings instead of soldiers, the Spanish army continued it's campaigns against the cowardly Aztects and Arabians. Tenochtitlan became a spanish outpost in 1834 AD and in 1837, the last Aztec city, Xochicalco, was put to the torch.


http://forums.civfanatics.com/uploads/105539/RB30_6.JPG

The elimination of Azteca was quickly followed by the eradication of Arabia. In 1838, the last Arabian stronghold, Khurasan, received the same treatment as Xochicalco.

These two actions had a very positive impact on the general well being of the Spanish citizens and almost all traces of native unrest was removed.

In 1840, The great engineer John Roebling, was born in Kyoto. Isabella used his powers to finalize the construction of the Pentagon.


http://forums.civfanatics.com/uploads/105539/RB30_7.JPG

The very same year, Spains scientists discovered the secret of Industrialism.


With the thought of Pentagon enhanced tanks, roaming the countryside, Isabella, the wise, sensitive, self-disciplined and fair queen of Spain and (soon to be) ruler of the world fell asleep, once again.
