EMPIRES: A Game of World Dominion Update6

Okay guys, I saw this on some other forums, so I want to do it here. To start, basically:

You all start in the tribal ages. Sticks and stones, ladies.

In order to progress, you need to do actions, outlined below.

TO JOIN, AND NEW PLAYERS CAN JOIN AT ANY TIME, POST THE FOLLOWING:

Quote :: Post:

Your country name

Where you want to be on the map

Ideology (Military, Economic, Expansive, Cultural. Picking one will give you a bonus to rolls )

Religion (feel free to make one up)

Government type (Communist, capitalist, republic, ect)

After that, I will mark you on the map (updating it) and post in the second post on this thread with the results of each "action" you take.

You can take up to three actions per update. actions can be ANYTHING. here's an example

Quote :: the grand empire of McGuffin tries to expand westward.

I will roll a D20 on my desk IRL, and add whatever modifiers you start with/have gained. Then adjust the map. Please only post once per update. or I will get angry and the dice gods will get angry.

Quote :: ON THE MAP

There are going to be several different things going on on the map at the same time. Lets point some out here.

COLORED BLOTCHES
these are the countries territories, you can tell what country by looking at the name inside the blotch.

CAPITALS
A countries capital will be marked on the map by a small flag.

TRADE ROUTES
Trade routes are noted by dotted RED lines on the map

PORTS
Port cities play an important role in the game. They allow you to form trade routes and have larger seafaring vessels.

SPECIAL EVENTS
you'll know when you see it.

FORTRESSES
Defensive positions. Armies need to take these out if they want to secure a front without the threat of attack from behind.

ON ACTIONS [READ]

PLEASE READ.

Actions can be ANYTHING YOU WANT THEM TO BE. but remember that because you say something doesn't mean it works. VAGUE IS USUALLY BETTER. for instance, Expand north, is better than, Expand north about 10 miles. I judge the average roll you need to get based on what you ask. If you ask for something specific, I judge that you need SPECIFICALLY THAT THING. And the roll will be harder. If something flat out fails, "you try to ____ but don't seem to grasp the concept" that means you're doing it wrong.

Subject: Re: EMPIRES: A Game of World Dominion Wed Feb 23, 2011 6:13 pm

THIS THREAD IS WHERE I WILL POST THE CURRENT UPDATES. PLEASE WAIT UNTIL I POST AN UPDATE BEFORE POSTING A NEW REPLY WITH NEW ACTIONS.

DO NOT EDIT YOUR POSTS AFTER I'VE MADE AN UPDATE. OTHERWISE IT WILL LOOK RETARDED, YOU WILL LOOK RETARDED.

Spoiler:

Update 1

Quote :: And the earth was without form and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. But the gods saw that this world was good, and they said "Let there be." and so it was.

Update 2

Quote :: And on the earth there be. The beings called "Man" sprung from the earth. They were thoughtless, and the gods said, "Let them be" And they were.

All the tribes of man fall upon the earth, Each with their hands and clothed in the raw skins of animals. Rocks for throwing and houses of branches. Begin your actions.

Update 3

Quote :: Tiberia

The Tiberians try to push north, but only manage to push a little ways into the harsh wilderness.

After much work, your people develop full fledged farms, Moving you from a simple hunting and gathering society, to a stationary one. You reckon you should be able to produce enough food in a season to have more than your people can eat.

You send some men to explore south, But they only come back with reports of vast woodlands. Nothing you're not used to

You gather your people and talk about founding a more stable "town" a few seem to catch on to the idea, and move their lean to's and bough built structures around your hut, forming a kind of gathering area.

You hold a grand recruitment day, constructing a bonfire and talking of conquest, but only about two people show up to join the ranks, and are dismissed because two does not make an army. They murmur of the dark things in the forests at night.

Quote :: Ramonia

your settlers walk to the south, they manage to take a bit of land and form a new settlement.

You try to plant farms on the hot soil, but your farmers don't seem to be able to make things grow, you do manage to grow a few weeds though!

Your men expand eastward at an amazing pace, encountering almost no dangers and bolstering what your people think of their leader!

Quote :: BANLANDS

you send out pioneers in all directions, and they meet almost no trouble in their journies, setting up new pockets of civilization

You talk of uniting the spread out houses of the tribe into a more fortified "town" but they give you strange looks, A few do move their houses closer though.

You try your hardest to move from a hunting to a growing people, but as hard as you try, nothing seems to take root. Maybe it's not the season...

Quote :: MOTHER RUSSIA

You expand towards the east, just managing to touch the sea, but reports from the new town say that the journey killed half your settlers

You try to expand the land people are able to work, but it ends with people squabbling.

Your people start yelling at birds, as others stare at them with confused faces, the birds seem to think getting yelled at is some kind of positive attention. People clap and cheer, Your town is soon filled with swooping birds and people who yell at them... A few start even making little statues ( A NEW RELIGION IS FORMING )

You don't seem to find a new tribe, only trees. your traders talk to them, but the birds say trees are not to be trusted.

You offer imaginary cattle to the trees, they seem to accept them, but the birds just squak at your foolishness.

Update 4

Quote :: TIBERIA

Your picketers head home.

your greatest minds pool a bunch of huts together and decide to call it a "Library." they write down everything they manage to brainstorm up and put the scrolls in bins.

Your builders seem to be onto something, they make bigger frames for tents and make large huts. many people can live in each hut.

Explorers are sent in all directions, none come back with any signs of other civilization, Are you alone in this world? One however, does bring back a particularly sexy frog.

After a lot of thought, your inventors realize that it's safer to strike things from a distance, instead of a club. They get branches and sharpen them, or tie pointy rocks to the end. creating SPEARS

Quote :: Banland

your people try to expand, and manage to do so, but the populous of your burgeoning tribe start to feel neglected. There won't be enough food to go around if expansion continues at this rate.

your brains of the tribe manage to figure out some basic tools. this should make farming a lot easier!

After a lot of coaxing, all of the tents and huts of your tribe start to congeal around yours. Forming a large city of huts.

Quote :: Mother Russia

your people manage to build some shanty rafts, and use them to fish. You don't quite know how to build anything sturdy enough to warrant a port. your people start shifting away from hunting and becoming a fishing nation.

You manage to make some farmland outside the capitol to grow hardy wheats. With the fish you should have more than you can eat this winter.

You yell at the birds to find people, but they seem wholly uninterested with your requests. More and more people seem to be gathering around the people yelling at the birds, and you swear you see more bird shaped idols appearing on the roofs of huts.

You tempt people to leave their isolated houses and move to the capital, it doesn't seem to gain much support though.

Quote :: From the earth a new leader emerges, uniting the tribes in the dense rainforest world. They call themselves Belarivia. Will his empire grow and flourish? Only time will tell.

Quote :: Ramonia

You bring together your people, and spin your tales of a government for the people, by the people, and of the people. Many cheer and gather around you as you tell of a new type of rule. Morale in your capital greatly increases and people flock to your cities.

You expand to the west, only running into a few dangerous cacti along the way.

With a miraculous success, you manage to cultivate the land and grow hardy desert crops.

You tell your people to put a town on the water to the east. and they do, forming a small coastal town. several people take up fishing.

Your thinkers put their heads together, and figure out a brilliant way to defend the town, they gather nearby cactus and bury them in the sand, The needles are almost invisible and slick with a poison.

Update 5

Quote :: Tiberia

Tiberia expands greatly in all directions, Seeking to claim as much land as possible.

The minds of your nation start to preach of your gods, but most people dismiss this to nothing more than normal self worship.

You sit down with your best minds, And realize that by felling trees and stacking them, you can make sturdy walls and houses. YOU DEVELOP PALISADES AND CABINS

Your national leader takes a fresh spear and tries to kill the closest person to him, the individual kicks the warboss, and breaks his spear. People start to question your leadership (Moral Decrease)

You try to convince your populous that sex is about more than just reproduction, that it's about pleasure and desire. Most people in the settlement agree with you, and same sex couples become common, As well as dens of carnal desire. YOUR CIVILIZATION NOW HAS ITS FIRST BUSINESS. THE OLDEST PROFESSION.

Since private business ownership has developed in your town, the people need something to buy and sell goods with. They adopt a new currency, wooden coins called "Bits"

Quote :: Ramonia

You make tools and other things out of wood and sandstone.

Your capital swells with people, but you are running out of materials to build houses with.

You venture out, and find a large deposit of hard clay at the bottom of a wide oasis.

Your boarders expand south

At the very center of town, you gather your builders and construct a large shrine. Atop a low but wide stepped hill made from the clay you just found, you gather branches and tie them in the shape of a large raven, it's wings extended skyward. Large crowds regularly go to worship, and praise the new idol to their god.

Quote :: From the earth, a new leader emerges, uniting the surrounding tribes of man, and declaring themselves slaaneshi. A people centered around pleasure and excess.

Quote :: Sara

Your people fiddle around with flint, wondering of it's uses, and eventually decide to put it on the end of long sticks, creating very sharp, if fragile, spears.

Quote :: Mother Russia

Your people realize that large birds often circle over game. And use it to their advantage.

You push a man into the water and crucify him on a raft. Many of the new bird religion cheer and watch from the shores

Your people try to figure out a way to trade, and adopt a form of currency called "Beads" small shiny rocks from the coast that are stained with a berry.

You create a large square in the center of your town, birds swarm overhead and roost on houses.

You use your new building materials to construct a large house on the biggest hill of the settlement, claiming it as your own.

Your hunters spread across the island, but the game is starting to run out.

You search for a livestock to live off of, and surprisingly find one. Walrus. You put them in pens and the blubbery lazy creatures produce plentiful, if fatty, meat.

you gather twenty men from around your village, blind in their devotion and unmatched in their strength. They're armed with spears.

You gather the smartest of your clan and tell them to devise some kind of new wonder, They set to work and after several long days of toil in shaded houses, produce to you a bone idol, "With this all our seasons of fishing will be bountiful!"

Quote :: Tiberia

your picketers all gather, and reckon that expanding along the coast is the safest way to expand.

The holymen bicker over a name to long to have time to take a census.

You try to find better ways to hunt, and your hunters devise a cloak made from grasses, if they lay down they're very well hidden!

Update 7

Quote :: Tiberia

You seek great fame in the southern wylds of the land, and take your two mightiest warriors deep into the alpine forests, A large crowd of spectators watches you leave, fearing the stories of the dark woods told around your capital, You and your posse move through the thick and ancient forests that have sustained your people and kept them in fear for all recorded time. You spend days treading through the perpetual twilight the canopy above provides, spears held ready for any threat there may be. Soon you approach a stone alter beset a massive pine in your path; making your skin crawl as you approach to see the dark and twisted offerings to some foul and misanthropic god. You do the first thing that comes to your mind, and destroy the alter, kicking it over and stomping the offerings into the soft forest earth. Your cohorts shout, not in warning but in glee, as they point to the likeness of a beautiful and naked woman peering about a tree. She speaks in a lulling wyld tone, and black lines of paint streak across her face in a tribal pattern, "What big strong men come to dethrone the god Shadara~" she coos, your men go over to brag, recounting their heroic deeds and triumph over nature's cruelty, but without warning, the woman emerges, a feminine figure upon a black and twisted body, Eight legs of a spider and a large abdomen under her near milk white torso. With a swing of her bladed arm, she bisects your follower in two, a charmed smile still on his face as his severed upper sections fall to the ground. Your second guard takes up his spear with difficulty, as you, great leader of men, rush to his aid, no feminine visage is enough to corrupt your will. The spider woman shrieks at the two of you, a bladed arm cutting deep through your remaining followers leg, sending him falling to the ground with a scream of pain. Your grasp is firm and your spear is sharp, and you thrust straight at the beasts twisted heart, but are denied your victory by a sweeping claw, knocking your blade away. you steady yourself as the spider laughs, "Why not just become a thrall of my mistress? Good lady Shadara takes good care of all her servants~" She says it in her cooing en-rapturous voice. You growl in anguish, the words searing your mortal mind like a hot knife, but through the haze of false promise, the word of your god fills you. You let out a mighty yell that reverberates through the shadowed woods and sends leaves flying away from you with the force, the spider creature stunned for a moment. Seeing your opportunity, you grip your spear and thrust straight for her gasping mouth, letting out of ferocious roar, "GREAT LORK ABOVE, GUIDE MY SPEAR!" the haft of your long spear shudders as the tip is forced out through the back of the creatures head, blood and bone spattering out from the blow. In the creatures dying breath, she swings a bladed claw, carving a deep wound through your clothes and chest, Your task done, the beast slain, the mighty presence of your god leaves you, but the feeling of that thunderous roar remains. You pull your spear up, the beasts severed head still impaled on it, and help your comrade back to the capital. Your people let out a wave of cheers as you return, and after the account of your tale, and the nodding confirmation by your surviving guard, bolster the moral of your people. if they had doubt in your capabilities before, There is none now.

Quote :: Ramonia

You quickly tame the camels, making slow but desert ready mounts, some people do complain of the smell though...

Your people think of a way to attack from a distance, and realize that throwing isn't nearly enough. you make a sort of bow, the arrows pointed with several poisoned cactus needles.

The boy hitting the rocks shows exceptional skill, and others soon try to hit rocks flying at them, soon a small gathering forms, and people celebrate their new sport. eventually they make up new rules of things to do AFTER you hit the rock, and they decide to name it, Baseball.

Quote :: The Slaaneshi Empire

You send men southward and gain a fair bit of land

Your engenseers get to work, clearing the land and laying halved trees to form a wooden road! It expands north to south to all your outlying towns, domestic trading flourishes!

you manage to find several large herds of buffalo, but can only afford enough land to keep ten or so. soon your herders abandon the idea, and just hunt them instead.

Quote :: Macketonia

You move to the north and fish, the fishermen bring in more than enough food to sate your hungry people!

You pick the biggest and tuskiest walrus and ordain him "Bubba." On the proving grounds, he quickly impales several sick people of your empire on his long tusks, the square below the steps of your palace run red with blood, his beige tusks stained crimson. A fine beast of war he will be.

You send out your guard and burn all edible plants, your people grumble and whisper of the insanity of their leader.

Quote :: Kanata

You assemble twenty five brave warriors and arm them, sending them south to slay the thread to your lands, they approach an open field with a long burned scar in the landscape, and soon see the comings of a large winged beast on the horizon, like a lizard with wings and a spiked tail, it descends upon your men, roaring hot fire pouring from it's mouth, half are burned to death with the first pass, and the moral of your men falter, several run screaming to be torn in two in the creatures massive jaws. the remainder of your squad circle around the captain, and hold their weapons high, as the dragon makes another pass, he swings upwards, the spear sliding through it's scales and through it's chest, with a guttural roar and another burst of fire into the air, it slams into the ground, defeated.

You manage to capture and tame several large horses.

You pack clay around your huts, making them less drafty and keeping the heat of a fire in better.

A new nation comes into being, but the land they requested does not exist! They are doomed to the black abyss, to know neither life or death. (Being a shithead means I ignore you. congrats. )

Quote :: Aloria

Your people have a strong connection with nature, large trees and parks dot your capital, as well as around it's borders. It slowly becomes tradition to pray under trees, if not necessarily to them, and once every year to hang slips of paper with a wish in the branches of the tree in the square of town, a mighty oak who's face knows not the wear of time.

You expand north a ways.

Quote :: Sara

Your people form the basics of a written language, a scrawling and ornate text that is best suited to the hand of a scholar rather than the common folk. a sloppier common dialect emerges soon after, though.

You develop more farms, growing grapes in the rich soil.

You look into some of the strange shiny rocks in the mountains towards the center of your land, you soon figure out that with some effort, you can put them into fire and extract a silvery black substance, Your seers cheer at the discovery of "Ferris"

Quote :: Banland

You develop a type of currency, exchanging secrets for goods and services, The most wise and open-eyed soon rise to the top of the social hierarchy

You dig down into the earth and try to find something, anything, after weeks of nothing but more dirt, you strike a strange glowing idol of blue and grey stone. Several people in the capital look upon it with wonder as it is brought back, The idol is in the shape of a large predator cat.

You tell your seers to write down all of their ideas on rolls of animal skins, soon large stocks of scrolls fill a house in your capital, you call it a "Chronicasium"

Quote :: Belariva

Your people try to make a new weapon, you take wood and carve it into a sharp shape, pointing the tip, they don't last long but they hurt like hell! YOU INVENT WOODEN SWORDS

You enslave the poorer members of your population, selling them to do manual labor and other acts of depravity. Several people in your empire dissagree with this, but you make them slaves too.

You move eastward a bit.

A new nation is formed in the lush river delta of the middle lands! they call themselves Smurfopia, and worship the great green in this world. For among the green-water visage lie, the long and lonesome sands stretch far away.

Quote :: Mother Russia

You start to expand south, the teams led by the bird speakers and Prophets of the Wing, you gather quite a bit of land!

You erect statues to the bird god all around your capital and in all outlying settlements, the populous applauds your wisdom and piety!

you proclaim the death penalty for all who would try to cheat their way to better standing, most people accept this as just.

Banland, also known as Upside Down land.

Australia

Expansive

The inhabitants of Banland tend to believe in the concept of persuasion and influence. It is thought that a very long, long time ago, there was in fact a God, a being of such immense influence that he died the moment he decided to use it. The basic philosophy of persuasion and influence is that the more something influences something else, the faster it dies. This explains why most rocks exist, and why trees live for such a unnecessarily long time. All living things happen to only have a certain amount of influence, derived from the infinite influence from someone who bothered to live a long time ago, and it is believed that once you exert all your influence and die, you will live as all the things you had influenced. Despite this being an incredibly strange and complicated religion, most people have a very good grasp on it, and all try to explore and influence as much as they can to prepare themselves for their afterlives.

The High Priests of probability once again consult the stars, suggesting more courses of action.

1: Continue expansion, so that all may feel our influence and become a part of us.

2: Attempt to construct better tools, the dark forces of improbability are working against us, we have not anything to aid us in our planting quests.

3: Try and reinforce the idea of a nerve center, we must collect our influence in one place so we may direct it easily.

Our picketeers and pioneers use their new inspiration to try and expand more, chartering less of the land all the whilst.
Our Librarians are eager to form a club. They look at the religious ideals of the country, and start talking about them to see if they were more efficient than a burden.
Our builders want to update the city with the new techniques, asking for new people to come together to form a larger sort of tribal settlement.
