Rise From Medieval Kingdoms III, Thread Two

[thomas.berubeg]

not pressing you or anything, but how far along is the update?

 

[choxorn]

I'll get it done this weekend.

 

[D'Artagnan59]

I'll get it done this weekend.

Just do it now.

 

[Leeksoup]

Just do it now.

Easier said than done, my friend. Do you have uninterrupted four-hour chunks of time laying around? You can't do the update in stages, you know- I tried a few times and I got so freaking confused as to what I had done and what I hadn't it turned out to be faster to just wait for a large block of time to get everything done at once.

 

[D'Artagnan59]

Now meaning once you have the time now, not directly now. I mean, if you were doing homework, that'd be stupid to say "do it now, now".

 

[Terrance888]

Hey guys, my forum game is going well and will be updated again! Join the Mayhem!

 

[D'Artagnan59]

Heh. Every time he procrastinates, it snowballs into more procrastination, which leads to a 2-week-long update.

And then there's just the workload outside of the internet.

For the first time in God knows how long

(strange looks)

Sorry, I meant Allah knows how long, the world was at peace.

Wait, no, nevermind, someone else had started a war.

But, as to how the world had managed to come to peace.

Russia, now satisfied with having taken all of the land once belonging to Crimea, no longer cared about getting any more from the Ottomans. So, they made peace with them. The overjoyed Ottoman army promptly marched to Mecca and Jiddah, taking them over easily. The Arabian penninsula was now theirs. They didn't get all of Arabia's land, though- the Ethiopians got to the island of Socotra first. Hence, the Ottoman Wars are over.

(Yeah, I know, that's a lot of land, but it's f***ing desert. Hardly valuable. )

The Aztecs and Maroc decided, "screw this, I don't want to fight a war against someone on the other side of the planet", and so made peace. Maroc is noticablely less interested in colonies, as they have sold their one on Iceland to Reykjavik.

And speaking of Reykjavik, this was why the world was not totally at peace. England had invaded them. With a massive army pushing forward, it was a simple task to capture Bolungavik, Olafsvik, Keflavik, Borgarnes, Vik, and the capital city of Reykjavik. Reykjavik's capital has moved to Djupivogur, and they seem to be doomed.

Nearby, on Greenland, Japan sent some colonists. Their directions seem to have been unclear though, and they have ended up on the Northwest corner, near no resources. They are not very happy about this.

Cuba has once again been the site of many battles. Gibraltar returned and recaptured Guantanamo, and re-instated their colony. The Maya pushed east and captured Ciboney.

Farther to the north, Louisiana sent huge armies at their barbaric neighbors, conquering two of the 5 Indian nations. The other 3 are alarmed by this, and also curious as to why England ignores them.

The Mings invaded the Phillipines. There, they fought a battle against the Fillipino that resulted in a stalemate, with no victory for either one. The naval battles off the coasts of the islands are largely responsible for this.

They were luckier, however, in the north. They have taken vast swaths of land from their Mongolian and Manchurian neighbors.

In Indonesia, Japan suffered an epic fail vs. Borneo, and have lost control of most of the island. They just didn't have enough troops, even against barbarians. Meanwhile, Vietnam and Burma have added a few more islands to their collection of Indonesian islands, nearly getting to New Guinea.

Farther south, in Australia, Japan had more luck, and more troops. Hence, they now have a swath of land in Eastern Australia.

Blah Blah, stuff happened, Blah Blah, Caliph wraps things up.

New Tech:

Anatomy: Religious leaders have decided cutting open dead people isn't taboo, heresy, witchcraft, or any other way of saying "thing that should not be done". More knowledge of the human body is now known, and better medicine can be made. Not being sick makes your people happy, so +5% to Stability. Cost: 110 TP
