stJNES10: Expand and Conquer

I got any answer from the Viking Tribe?
 
OOC: Btw, do we have to pay eco. levels for our wonders now?

IC:

Story:

"...the Transbosphorians [Slavs] worship many different gods: different tribes often worship only their own gods. For example, Trepoleans worship but two gods: Belobog, the God of Good, and Chernobog, the God of Evil: in their sacrificials and their prayars, they seek to appease both. However, they also believe in large multitudes of "lesser spirits": "domovyje", "vodyanyje", "leshyje", "ovinniki" and "polevyje", who inhabit all the Slavic lands and elements of landscape."
- From the writings of Remus of Troy "On Transbosphorians".

The smoke was rising. The znachar'i stopped chanting simultaneously. The deer was burned properly indeed. The smoke was rising, it was utterly black. Bakoslav could not cough, he was so overtaken by the divine presence here.

"Chernobog is appeased." - the chief znachar' declared ceremoniously. Bakoslav sighed in relief. He feared that Chernobog might not accept such petty sacrifice. But the Black God accepted it. A sudden fear grasped Bakoslav. Will Chernobog even listen to their pleas?

Still, they could only hope for his mercy. The recent epidemic was horrible, taking many lives. But the Tripolyane persisted. Perhaps now, the Black God would have mercy...

---

"And Bakoslav called forth many chieftains and advisors of the Land of the Three Fields [Tripolye]. With Acceptance of Both Gods, they all came to the grad of Poljansk.

And Bakoslav declared a great feast for them, and as they ate and drank, he walked silently amongst their ranks, studying the face of each one. He studied them and remembered them, and judged them secretly. They suspected Bakoslav's intentions, but knew that rising up against him would incurr the wrath of Both Gods. They feasted, and pretended not to know what was happening.

As Bakoslav passed by, he gestured for some of them to follow him. Resigned to their fates, they stood up and walked out. The wisest, the bravest and the most honorable amongst the Tripoljane of the time they were. They left the oak-wood giant terem where the feast was held, and stood outside of it, silent, along with Bakoslav and with his druzhina, armed with strongest bronze swords.

And Bakoslav did order the execution. The druzhinniki approached those whom he saw as his enemies. They surrounded them, who still were feasting inside the terem, them who were cowards, dishonorable, lying and arrogant, and slaughtered them on the very furs on which they were seated and were feasting, and so scared were the cowards that they dared not speak as they themselves were cut into pieces. Only ten of them, the ten greatest cowards and traiots whose names are to be forgotten forever, were spared from death that day.

On the next day, they were burned at the stakes of wet wood: so that their death is slow and not from the merciful fire, but from Chernobog's black smoke itself, and so that it teaches all others of Bakoslav, harsh yet just."

Orders:
- Change ruler title from "Vozhd" to "Knyaz".
- Change government type to "Knyazdom" (as said before, for solidarity's sake).
- Get 100 chariots (the idea of Russian chariots is not something I could let pass by...)
- Expand in all directions. It is a priority to establish a border and contact with Moskovia; after that, concentrate (note that simply CONCENTRATE: that means we still are expanding in others directions, but not as much) on southward expansion along the river (easier to bring the population further south) into the fertile land (to encourage more of our people to settle there then otherwise).
 
Javanese Orders

As the food supply is now growing so should the population of Java. Therefore the Javanese population will expand outwards continuing to mimmick that of the older settlements. So pretty much this will expand economy.

So I am expanding economy
Using the maps I have started to make to expand to the nearby islands of Bali and the Timorese chain, and Sumatra as well as occupy the rest of the Javanese island using the army.
Also I am to continue the wonder, can you tell me what it is going to do? Cheers.
 
To All those who missed the update: I said I was updating for the first five turns once a day on the first day. Also, update on Friday may be a little late, as I do have work.

now for some Q&A:

Q:who beit the nation with no land in the Atlantic ocean?
A: lol, its the copy of the capital I use to copy and paste when new nations are formed, ignore it.

Q: how come we didn't built a settlement...
ALSO: I never divided my forces... 800 troops were invading the barbarians of the east.
A: Not all your orders are done every time. And the barbarians were divided, not you.

Q: Hey you know I hate to gripe but I did ask for myself to expand to take the rest of the Javanese island.
A: It looks like I forgot to expand you at all. It will be shown on next udpate.

Q: I got any answer from the Viking Tribe?
A: Mixed answers, as they are all divided t hundreds of tribes.

Q: Btw, do we have to pay eco. levels for our wonders now?
A: Yup.

Satari

The Bactarians
They were wierd people. They lived south the the prosspering empire of Satari. Why they lived in those mountains and deserts? No one knew. The god-king Asur decided to open trade with them but the rich of the city did not liked it. They wanted war. Asur could not fight a war with such good people, he turned to other ways of communication. He said "You can conquer by army, but there are other ways to conquer".

The Great Route
As trade with the Bactarians begun so did the population. villages were formed on the road the trade took place in and Satari expanded into this roads. All was going well and trade brought prossperity to all.

to Bactria:
Both our sides say war, why should we choose that side? Let us create great reletions and marry my doughter to your son! and my son to your doughter and in this way change the foundations which our country prossper upon! We offer a union! If not, than lots of trade!

@jason, you forgot to begin the wonder..unless it was to extreme. And my story wasnt meant to be taken literally :lol:

-begin wonder, Wolfgang's Art of War (+2 increase in spearmen, +1 increase in chariots, +1 increase in archers)
-fortify remaining soldiers inside Austria incase of further attacks
 
ah for my wonder... kinda scrap the +economy... doesnt really make sense because it takes economy to get...

so its just +navy training/quality

Increase economy by making the irrigation trenches in Sicily cover a much larger area, therfore increasing the amount of crops harvested/grown and the quality of the crops.
Also set up mines for valuable minerals in the middle of southern italy.

Expand North into Italy. ( Keep old forts, but lower garrison, so new forts can be build further up the coast... build new forts to protect against attack.)
Attempt to Expand into Northern Africa. (build a main settlement, a main city as it would be called, which would be a walled city, with farmland all around. Protect with 100 spearmen and 30 archers.)


Make my leading scholars scribe a alphabet which is written in symbols that represent actions.
Try to form a rosetta stone of types with all foreign cultures that are met friendily.

Try to make closer contact with the people in the Spanish areas, the Southern France areas and tribes in north africa, trade resources for other resources, giving all nations a better standing in the world, and increasing economic power of all our nations.

200 spearmen expand the settlements on the mainland

1/4 navy and 100 archers explore up the east coast and build settlements and defenable positions at good harbours. Attempt to befriend any natives and trade with them.
 
Jason, I am extremely bogged down with this report due. Please dont penalize for the vague orders.

- Enemy divided, now go with full force in both directions.
-Settle Valentia and tell the people what I told you to tell them before encouraging them to build private ships and explore and claim new lands for us.
-Expand west along the river with 100 troops, send 100 north and north east of Madrid.
-Increase economy by settling new people in Valentia and taking advantage of the fishing areas.
 
The effects of wonders are decided by me when they are finished.

And azale, in the rules it says that you can only have structures as wonders.

I will begin update shortely.
