You have 15 Military to build units.
You have 16 Tech Points to choose techs.
Not done with Resource map: 4 Main resource Types. Trade Resource. Economic Resource. Military Resource. Special Resource.

Fill this out.

Brownie Points. You can exchange 10 for 10 Gold, 5 Stabilization or 1 City (useful when you have large empires). They are mythical creatures that work for those that aided them. Adrian has 2 Brownie Points for Joining and for the Flag. Neverwonagam3 has 1 For Joining, 3 for Helping me to make the Pre-History. And 2 for making his stats without being told. I will give them out pretty freely. And you can save them. And I WILL give them freely. (as in giving orders very fast, making a resource map (10 Brownie points ) and writing stories.)

Query: By now, how much do the factions really know about what happened 500 years ago? What does each one claim happened?

 

[Terrance888]

Well, 500 years ago the last Shaman is Killed. Well, your Faction's home town is in the Shaman's Council. So, as one of the few Council men, the clan joined together to provide witnessess of Twins and that their leader is the younger one. The Northern Faction is basically the remants of a Dictatorship that assassinated the shaman and tried to control the nation. The southernmost is the Justification of the Pharoh of the Niles and he just claims the Shamanship to gain more power. (also, his clan left just after the assassination and the rise of the dictator ship.) The last one of factions is the leader of the Normad Chunherrans and they claim he is the desendent of the 1st shaman.


Basically. Northern One, Remants of the Chunherran Empire.
Southern One, Clan from Old Chunherra, Pharoh.
Eastern One, Normad Chunherrans, claims their leader is the first shaman's brother's dessendent.
Yours, Some true blood connection, lead the first rebellion against the Chunherran Empie, leads the Fendian Shamandom.

Really, you should write your history. You do whatever you want with it.

Legend of the First Shaman

Long ago, when the summers are cold and winters freezing. A young shaman was suddenly possessed by a great spirit. It said that if he killed all his brothers and all the leaders of other tribes the sun will come over the coldness of hate. So he fought. One of his baby brother is hidden by his mother away far to the east. While the others are killed one by one.

When they all are killed, the sun began to grow stronger. He was proclaimed Great Shaman of his tribes. When the possessing spirit left, he became a wise, yet undirect, rular. His secret brother lead the other Chunherran tribes of the desert.

Years past. And when the last line of him was killed. His brother's line stood up against the dictator.


(official story) Anyway, it isn't directy true. It is like the Chinese telling legends of the Shang before it is found true. Or Greek story tellers telling of the sack of troy. Of Scholars poring over books and trying to restart glory. All have their own tales of the past. And although the main Anatoganists are dead their clans grew their power and eventually fought again. I will give a map Tomarrow.

Ah, screw it. I'm in. I like the idea well enough. I'll take England (if it's untaken).

I'll give stats when my nation is given the thumbs up.

Here's the Teuton homeland with it's capital Teutoburg:

Orders will be sent very soon.

 

[Terrance888]

Everybody, Glad to see this is alive. No orders needed yet, update 1 is needed.
Look at the links for history. Will paste old cultures list.

I was going to, but I didn't want too much of an advantage in brownie points.

Update Friday. I need to make Resource Map. What should I include? I am thinking: Precious Metals, tin, copper, iron, gems, precious wood, coal, fur. Modern stuff in the future.

Updates will be like this. Each turn is 25 years. After 10 turns or til 750 A.C. (After Crisis, known as the start of the first dark age.) We will give awards. Woo!

Brownie Points Count
Neverwonagame3: 8
Arian: 5
Stuck in Pi: 1

Working on resource map. Suggestions welcome!

 

[Neverwonagame3]

Can I do a story without getting any brownie points?

 

[Terrance888]

If you want. Seriously. I give them VERY freely. Except you need a horde to use them.

Government Type-Republic
Tech Points: 16
Stability: 50(?)
Army: 7
Navy: 8
Projects: none
Technologies: Writing, Agriculture, Gold Smelting
Story: The Gern were used to war. Earlier cultures had controlled them until just recently. They had over thrown them with a large revolt. However, they had learned from the occupiers. Writing, agriculture, orginization. Even the form of government they had taken from them. The republic was able to easily assimilate nearby territories into its hold, and soon held all of Southern Brittania. Their future is unknown...

 

[Neverwonagame3]

Government of the Fendians
Traditionally, a Shaman had ruled through apponted Governors. Prior to collapse, these had beeen very autonomous entities, reforming the country with religious authority granted from the Shaman. As a distant figure to the people, he had more appeal.

As the Shamanate become smaller, this autonomy was reduced. The rise of agiculturalisation even caused rebellions in it's day, which only calmed generations later. An unprecedented thing happened- the Shaman actually deposed governors. This created instability for a while.

Meanwhile, the Shamanate itself had become hereditary. In the old days, this was merely a de facto fact of life (and in fact had not existed in early Shamanate times). The Fendians turned it into a de jure reality, copying their Southern "brethren" somewhat.

At the same time, the religious authority enjoyed by the Shaman was considerably reduced. After all, he did have rivals- this was publically admitted as a pretext for taking less time in managing the affairs of the realm. He was more like a King then an old Shaman now.

Is an update coming for this?

 

[Terrance888]

My Paint Program Broke.

I can still do an Update. But you will have to wait for the Map.

Do you want just the update? Then I can give it to you soon.

 

[Neverwonagame3]

Just the update will do for now (from my perspective).

 

[Terrance888]

Arian is working on a map for me. . Thanks, the last one is OK. But make them different colors. Also, that city to the north of you can be yours. To find a blank map, go to NESing forums and go the completed map. I am using Northern style world map.

I used the map from your first post. I'll add a city to the north. I'll also increase the size of the 'city-dots' and adjust their colors.
I'll make the capitals also recognizable.

Stucky = red
NWAG3 = purple
Arian = orange
France = blue

This map only has cities for England, France, Palestine and Germany as requested by Charles. Capitals have a white dot.
No resources or whatsoever.
