current 'nations'

tieflings are from the Supreme Empire of Dorova, which is basicly a huge empire with little colonial assets, but what assets it does have are strongly guarded.
Think the Russian empire. Its one of the strongest nations in the entire world, with the largest army but lacks a real navy.

Golbins are from the Most Serene Republic of Acra, a small but rich merchant republic with a fair amount of colonies in the south (which is like asia),
but not many in the new world (west of europa). Shes a major player over seas and commands powerful navies and has well trained line infantry, but lacks in numbers.

The kingdom of Narina is a combination of the Batavian Republic and any sort of germanic duchy. Its a significant player on the world stage and has
significant colonial assets in the new world, but lacks holdings in the far south (asia)

The fessians are related to the Varinians, and they come from many small kingdoms and principalities. They usually offer themselves up as mercenaries
to alot of nations. No fessian nation has colonial assets. Fessians are purely human.

>>10701294

i know, i was rather disapointed in that, considering it contained the great victory over the goblins. Anyway, feel free to start.

Whats our income of iron?

Lets either expand our current shipyard or build another shipyard in Danara

rolled 1 = 1

sage this shit.

map needs an oil slick.

>>10701404

Your income is around 1 per month, which is being used up to make iron breast plates, which you have around 50 of now.

Which i forgot to add before...

also, if you want to build any more ships, you'll need another dock.

How about we make a small clinic in Serenity to house the doctors and their possible patients in?

>>10701470

Wow, never noticed how similar it was.

>>10701497
Second this.

Then either build a second dock in serenity or upgrade the walls in Danara to stone walls.

We need some farms at Danara.
Scout the two villages on St. Loki's.

How much lumber is a new dock? If we have enough I want to put one in Danara. By the way we should rename Danara now that it's under out management.

I'd love a scouting on the Tiefling settlement. What are their numbers?

year 461 of our holy mother, February

While the Eversor continues on her way too Europa, work continues in the settlement. To expand our naval cabability, a second dockland was built in order for us to house more shipping, be it our own or foreign.

In the settlement itself, a clinic/barber shop has FINALLY been built for our doctors, who up until this point, had been using their own homes as clinics, which aren't exactly professional for our learned men.

Interesting news as well, this month. A scouting patrol found a small caravan under attack by Natives to the north. After rushing back to serenity, a rescue party was sent out to relieve the caravan consisting of the baron and fessian cavalry, which stopped the attack cold. We found out that the caravan was transporting Dorovan Royalty, Grand duchess Vera Feodorovna and what remained of her personal guard, and she asked to be given refuge in serenity, which we did not disagree too (results from last months random event roll)

+better health care
+dockland
+8 Winged hussars (Lance and two pistols)

>>10701635

those are your prospecting camps

>>10701681

How many scouts do you want to send, ill do a quick action.

>>10701646

what would you like to name it

>>10701785
Let's keep up the trend of naming them after spacecraft from popular culture and go with Normandy.

Train more scouts we only have 5 left. Lets use our rock production to upgrade the walls of Danara. Do we have streets in serenity?


Are our animal trainers working with the hippodiles?

>>10701844

You dont have 'streets' persay, as its not required for such a small settlement to have paved or cleared around for walking on. Most of the settlement is set up in street style.

>>10701844

Oh, and yes, they are. The fact they latched onto Baron Kaufmann has been a real help.

>>10701731
Send the 5 we have right now.
Train more.

I'm still up for more farms on Danara/Normandy.

>>10701875
When they are fully trained, immediately send one to our sovereign as a gift.

So, how is the Duke's quest for the widow going? Inquiring minds want to know.

>>10701896

"eiolkagrad" (lik-yeo-grad), tiefling settlement
pop:2200-2600 people
280-350 Marines, armed with muskets
40-70 winged hussars, armed with lance and pistol
4-10 cannon
900-1500 farm animals
Stone walls

>>10701921

no progress because shes a common folk?

What were the costs for building a war ship again?

>>10701935
Eww. Not liking that. Too much defence.

Anyway, let's do another upgrade on the dock. I wanna get a second ship going out towards Europa soon.

>>10701991
4 units of wood, wasn't it?

>>10702001
If it is that's pretty damn cheap, we're getting at least 3 per month from Normandy. I think we can afford to build one so that we can have it patrol our waters.

Year 461 of our holy mother, march

Dire news, the goblins have set up another colony. Albiet this colony has been set up on their side of the border, it its worrying none the less that they should set one up after we captured a previous one.

Almost as a compliment though, Danara, now named 'normandy' has had its wooden walls upgraded with stone, so if an assault were to come we are now better prepared than we were before.

Our scouts have trained up 5 more to join their ranks to replace the ones that we have lost over there years. Also, Grand duchess Vera Feodorovna has today requested permanent assylum from the Dorovan Empire.

Eversor has arrived in Europa, what shall it pick up?

>>10702027

thats just for a small, and it requires 30 sailors and 4 months to build.

also, forgot my hat.

>>10702063
100 units again?
First, I want a scout of this new colony.

>>10702096
100 units

'Lenorba', goblin colony
300-350 settlers
140-170 marines
30-40 dragoons
6-10 cannon

>>10702132
Yuck again. I'll let someone else pick units this time. I'll suggest some jewlers.

Also, what is that little red dot surrounded by the light tan ones along our river to the left?

>>10702132
Damn, it looks like they kicked it up a notch in defense for that one.

>>10702155
A few doctors/barbers too, let's build a clinic in Normandy.

>>10702198

id like exact numbers folks

>>10702155

thats the Dothclyde encampment.

GUNSMITHS

AND GUNS!!!

>>10702155
I'll second the jewelers, and request some more marines if we can them too, a horticulturist to help optimize crops if we can get one of those too.

aaah, fuck, I need to read the previous threads fast!

>>10702259

If you'd like, i can give you an update on whats happened so far.

also, what of asylum to the Tiefling Duchess?

>>10702302

any info on why she needs asylum?

>>10702218
I don't really want to go through and pick the 100 this time. I was going to wait for another poster, but I guess none will step up.
25 Royal Marines (25)
25 Winged Hussars (50)
3 Doctors/Barbers (53)
2 Jewlers (55)
5 Bellmakers ((for rifling/cannons)) (60)
3 Priests ((one of the holy mother, one of the Tiefling religion, one of any important religion I may be forgetting. (if not, another of the holy mother.))) (63)
2 tanners (65)
35 Veteran settlers (100)

>>10702316
>>10702252
Replace 5 of the settlers for Horticulturists.

>>10702316

Make it 30 veteran settlers and 5 gunsmiths... We need to be able to produce our own weapons.

>>10702329
25 Veterans, not 35 then. 5 horts, 5 gunsmiths.

Previous threads.

>>10702315

Grand duchess Vera Feodorovna Is a young member of the Dorovan royal family, being 43 years old (tieflings live to about 80 in this age, their royalty about 150). She is a well known supporter of tiefling rights in her empire, trying to bring her country out of the political dark age its in and more up to date with the more western nations. Expelled to the colonies to put a stop to this, she almost made the problem even worse by exploiting the emperors weak hold over his colonial assets. Her arrest was ordered in eiolkagrad By the emperor himself, although she was able to escape with some of her loyal guardsman from her dynasties personal guard.

>>10702302
Offer it tentatively, saying we'll have to confirm with our crown that such is acceptable. (While feeling out whether or not the local village will rebel against this slight.)

>>10702316

Winged hussars are a Ethnic Dorovan unit and cannot be recruited by any other nation than the Dorovan empire. In addition, you are only allowed 25 marines by the king to limit the power the colonies have.

>>10702390
EeeeeEh
Where is the thread where we captured the goblin settlement?
I can't find it.

>>10702407
Probably a bad idea seeing as now we might face both a goblin and tiefling invasion.

If we do offer her asylum then she has to keep a low profile for at least 3 years or we give her up to her own country on a silver platter.

>>10702390
Can we hide her or is it already known she's in our territory? If we can't then I'm sensing we'll take some political flak and possibly reduce our reputation with the local tieflings. Either way, keep her here, tell her she can even have a room in the Duke's fort.

>>10702429

That was in the thread that didn't get archived. Im sure zachary can update you as im a tad busy.

>>10702441
Why?
Thats bad, don't do that again.

Yeah, someone update on what happened that thread. How did we get the goblin settlement?

>>10702436

all the tieflings know is that she traveled south, and due to her support of the people, your teifling population isn't likely to give her up.

>>10702495
Right, well as long as we can keep her hidden she can stay. Primarily let her stay in the fort and if she wants to go outside she'll need to dress down and try to blend in with our other tieflings.

>>10702495

Perfect. We will give her asylum only if she will keep a low profile in our teifling courter for at least 2 years. This way if anything goes bad we can claim someone was hiding her without our knowledge. Also by doing this we will get more popular with our tieflings and maybe get a few immigrants.

Year 461 of our holy mother, april

The Grand duchess Vera Feodorovna and her royal guard have been given asylum inside serenity, within the dukes fort where she currently spends most of her time, but occasionally visits the tiefling quarter.

The Eversor has loaded up with the supplies and men while dropping off more durthweed and ale. The king is pleased with our progress and has donated to us another royal stallion.

Finally, another clinic has been built, this time in normandy

+boat load of settlers
+tieflings more loyal
+clinic

(note: Tieflings worship of the emperors doesn't have priests)

>>10702579

There are a few gunsmiths aboard right?

Not to be annoying or anything but this quest has way too much numbers.

>>10702495
If she agrees to keep a low profile while we house her in our royal estate, we agree to keep her.

And is it technically abusive for me to say, based on what may or may not be fluff that no one else knows about, she should probably not go near an altar...

>>10702610

yes, but all the hussars were replaced by normal settlers due to not changing it intime.

>>10702475
After scouting the Gobo mine on our territory, we found they were only giving up 1/3 of the stone they produced-not the 1/2 we asked for. We burned their feilds, rallied our troops, and distracted them with cannons. We send a hussar flank around back. Very few casualties. Some resistance in the mine for months, they barricaded in. We took it back.

>>10702620
That's how some fa/tg/uys like quests. Allows you to process information.

>>10702620

yes, i know, its a more complex quest, although down the road i plan for a time skip around 20 or so years when its a larger, more esstablished settlement so that the super micromanaging isn't required, but ill still keep some of the delicious numbers.

>>10702639

Whoa, that was harsh for just a bit of stone they were not delivering. I thought they were the ones who attacked us.

>>10702695
Nope, the thread decided that they should pay. It was quite hilarious.

Also, duck, can we get an expansion on that new shipyard? With more farms+irrigation at Normandy pl0x.

If there are some gunsmiths aboard then lets start building a small factory in serenity so when they arrive they can begin production.

Also lets set up some camps along then river to make sure the gobbo's don't try anything sneaky.

>>10702724
Also, how is the exploration at Loki's going?

Oh, and what about that red dot along the river to the left?

>>10702695

technically, yes. They broke an international treaty, refused to pay us our just deserves, and so in return they burnt the goblin fields, a fair trade. In return, they started attacking our hunters and scouts, and raided our western watchtower garrison, murdering all but 2 of the garrison before our reinforcements scared them off.

colonial politics are hardcore.

>>10702724
haha

most of the time /tg/ is quite reasonable and tries to go peaceful route.

>>10702743

told you, dothclyde camp

also, you'll find out next month, make sure to remind me if i forget.

What are our current projects?

Build Watchtowers along the roads going to the mining camp and Normandy.

>>10702796
Colonies are all about greed and there is never enough room to share.

Would it be possible to send an emissary to the teifling town to see if the local populous is happy with their lives? Might be nice if we can get a few tiefling immigrants..

year 461 of our holy mother, may

The eversor is still on her way home with the colonists, and if everything goes as planned she'll be home by the start of next month. A group of 40 Tiefling Hussars came this way today and stopped by serenity to question the duke as to whether or not the Grand Duchess had come this way, and to which he said no. After a quick investigation in the tiefling district, they went on their way southward bound.

Contruction has begun on a gunsmith in the western district of serenity, which when completed will be capable of producing 10 muskets a month. Along with this, irrigation was built in the Normandy fields, improving output.

+Farming output

>>10702861

Just a warning, the Dorovan empire is VERY protective about its population. While they can't do anything to prevent settlers from coming to you, trying to get settlers from them could result in worsened relations.

oh also, roll 2d20

>>10702897
Is it possible to improve our output in the iron mine?

>>10702796
Also what happened on Loki? IS THERE GOLD?

>>10702946

oh, yeah, there is gold. small amounts, but still gold. to improve output you need more miners, thats all really.

rolled 10, 5 = 15

What do people think of the watchtower idea?

>>10703005
I'm down for it.

Also, how many jobless do we have?

I would LOVE to stay and play but I need my sleep.

Also, suggestion to OP. Set up a proper schedule instead of randomly popping up. Converse with the players for the best time and day for maximum amount of players.

Oh, and don't forget to archive.

>>10703005
Its a good idea but we don't have the man power to make it happen just yet.

Lets focus on developing our iron and gold mines.

>>10703005

Ahahaha, you rolled a fucking awesome random event.

>>10703034
duck starts the campaigns at around 10~11 p.m. Eastern every day. ((That's what I've noticed.))

>>10701277
>36 Orc slaves

I am not too hot on having slaves of any kind

>>10703034

I usually pop up between 10am-12pm West australian standard time.
>>10703005

20 veteren settlers, plus what you've got coming.

rolled 14, 2 = 16

>>10703091
Plus what we've got coming on the ship?

Lets devote those 20 VS so we can have some gold income.

>>10703109
Blargh, reveal myself to be a newb by not clearing the e-mail line. Whoops.

>>10703087

everybody uses slaves, including the Kingdom of Varina, and the orc tribe you're allied with is at a constant state of war with the orc tribals you have as slaves, and offered to kill them for you if you returned them.

>>10703128

We all occasionally do it.

Whats the climate in serenity like? More of a tropical or continental?

Year 461 of our holy mother, May

The eversor has returned with the new settlers and marines, who have now been intergrated into our population with many finding jobs straight away.

The gun smith has been complete with our smiths being sent straight work, producing 10 muskets a month. As well as this, our jewelers have also found work by taking the little gold we get out of our mines and turning it into jewelery.

20 of the veteren settlers have been sent to St.Loki Isle, to work the Gold mines along with the Goblin POWs from the previous conflict. we get an income of 1 gold unit per year.

Most disturbing news, it seems that there is witchcraft about. One of our hunters discovered 3 young women in the forest slaughtering a lamb to an old, false diety, engorging themselves on its entrails beforing engaging in lewd activities. The town is in an uproar and fear is all around, demanding these women be burnt at the stake so the holy mother can judge them for their crimes.

+gold income
+10 muskets a month
+1 gold unit a year.

>>10703324
Kill the witches after getting multiple pictures of said lewd acts.

>>10703189

Think eastern seaboard, USA.

Do we have people on research?

It would be good to have them. We would advance much faster but at a cost, would have to make sure we have the surplus funds.

What does our priest say about the recent finding?

What do our gobbo, orc, and tiefling citizens think about witchcraft?

Start interrogating them, find out where they learned this foul witchery. I seriously doubt these three young girls taught themselves.

Can we have our scouts check on the Acran colony to make sure they aren't up to anything?

>>10703416
I think our esteemed guest, the Grand Duchess, may have some 'splainin to do...

>>10703416

The tieflings are even more furious than the Narinas, wanting to disembowl them. The Goblins are of the holy mother faith, and so too want to burn them.

The orcs think its just weird they'd do that when there are plenty of men about. Who should lead the investigation?
>>10703381
Blushed hard and said burn them

>>10703445

If she is the culprit then things just got serious.

Lets form a small party to investigate with a priest, a doctor, and maybe the duke...

>>10703523

>Doctor and the duke

sherlock holmes, is that you?

>>10703537

If so then the witches are done for :D

>>10703523
Duke needs to be the head of the investigation but I agree with having the Priest and a doctor on the tribunal. The Baron too probably.

>>10703565
you know what, investigation gets bonus for doctor/duke combo.

a two week investigation and interrogation of the suspects leads them to discover that there will be another ritual near the eastern river. The doctor and duke head down (the priest too busy praying to the holy mother for guidance) and lay await in some shrubbery. There they discover one of serenity's Fessian Doctors start a ritual using a Goblin child along with two other Varinian men. The doctor and Duke rush in to save the child before its thrown into the river, resulting in a sword fight killing the two men and the doctor diving into the river to save the child.

The Heretic is now being held in custody, and admits to everything. What shall we do with him, as well as the three women.

>>10703654
Interrogate. Take out any other cultist people.

>>10703654
Was he sacrificing a goblin AND two men, or were the two men participating in the sacrifice?

In the Fessian doctor's confession, does he name any other heretics?

>>10703654

Public trial and execution as well as burn anything heretical.

>>10703716

They were taking part. anyways, monthly update incoming.

Burn all heretics and hold a feast afterwards in celebration.

>>10703654
Also, rolling to see if I can get one shrubbery.

year 461 of our holy mother, june.

A public trial was held, and after the duke was able to convince the priesthood on the tribunal, the three girls were spared their lifes but must forever serve the holy mother faith as nuns until their deaths. The Heretic was not so lucky, however. He was sentenced to be hung, drawn and quartered and his pieces to be burried in all different parts of the land with his head being inturned in Fort. Loki.

The Acrans heard about the bravery the duke and doctor went through to save the goblin child, and offered a gift of friendship: A statue of the duke and doctor, which has been put infront of the dukes fort

+Acran relations
+Goblin loyalty

alright, what else do you folks want done this month?

How is our jewelry production going?
How big have our hippodiles gotten?

Lets upgrade out derthweed crops again since it is a hit back home. As well as start building a small warship.

rolled 15, 16 = 31

>>10703948
Let's upgrade that dock. Let's try and get a second ship out to Europa.

>>10703969

hippodiles take time to mature, and they are currently only the size of a sheep.

Jewelry production is steady, but your colony isnt producing the best in the world, but rather the stuff the middle class would use.

Sorry I read quickly through the archives, but where are children educated? Do we have a school or a church?

>>10704008
The last thread didn't get archived but we have 2 schools for the lil ones.

Can we get the priest to incorporate some religious education into the schools?

>>10704007
Are we taking care of them well? Will we be able to breed them and create a sizable population of them?

Whats our exact military strength at the moment?

Year 461 of our holy mother, July

Bad news today, native savages have struck our mining facility to the south. At approximately 5pm, the hour when most of our miners return from their work, they struck at us. The Marine in the encampment set up a signal fire to call for reinforcements and returned fire from the walls triyng to cover the miners who were fleeing or being cut down. We've lost around 20 of our 35 iron miners to this attack, at least 10 captured, as well as all our slaves, resulting in iron production coming to an almost complete stop.

In better, less messy news, production has begun on a frigate for the colony so it has some form of defense. Work on the frigate should be done in around about 4 months or so, and will require a crew of 30.

With durthweed being so popular back home, more crops have been raised to try an accomidate the demand, hopefully to bring us great wealth

-20 miners
-36 slaves

>>10704097

the hippodile are being well taken care of and seem quite ascustomed to humans and dwarfs now, epically baron kaufmann, but don't seem too keen on the tieflings. Most probably due to their predator features.

>>10704107
79 royal marines
18 fessian mercs
30 standing militia
8 Winged Hussars

rolled 18, 9 = 27

>>10704138
I've never seen us actually get any "wealth".
What are we getting for all of our goods that go to Europa?

>>10704178
Sigh. I'm such a newfag. xD
The first one wasn't a bad roll, though.

>>10704138

Send out scouting parties with wolves to track down these orcs. Ask our orc allies if they know anything.

>>10704178

It is fueling the dukes dynasty back home and giving him better standing with the king, resulting in better treatment in the future among the colonies as well as possible future gifts.

>>10704205
Ok, that'll work. Just wanted to know that we weren't being ripped off. xD

>>10704200

Scouting parties, with our orc allies, locate a reasonably sized orc camp to the south about 80 orcs in strength, all men. Our prisoners are also there, but it seems there are only 8 now, as the orcs ran low on food.

>>10704138
Fucking natives, can we build some stone defenses around the mine, even minor ones would do. Send scouts to look for the location of the native tribe that attacked our mine and find their home camp.We'll find them and send a troop of soldiers to kill them and round up any we can catch alive. They just killed all of our slaves, it makes sense that we use them to replenish our supply.

How many jobless people do we have? If we have any lets start up the mining production again.

>>10704236
Ask our natives about this native tribe. Habits, customs, religious tendencies, etc...

>>10704246

They didn't kill, they liberated.

>>10704236
Gather 40 marines, 15 militia, our fussians mounted on horses, 3 cannons, and as many orc allies we can. We will get our people back and put an end to this orc threat.

Promise our orc allies some of the loot from the camp for their aid.

>>10704276
it is the same tribe we faced before, the stathborn. They are a violent war like tribe that rarely conduct foreign affairs, and when they do, they are the ones who instigate it.

>>10704303

The cannons cannot be used as they are hiding in a forest.

>>10704138

Also next time the Eversor goes back to Europa we should buy some more Fessian mercs they are extremely handy.

Damn, lets increase it to 25 militia then and try to attack them in the night since they are in a forest.

>>10704332
Let's leave the horses behind in that case, I don't see cavalry being particularly effective in old-growth forest.

>>10704372

Have our scouts / hunters clear the way for our troops in case the enemy has set traps in the forest

>>10704372
>>10704372
I don't like our army. That's ~83 units vs 80. We need a better advantage. Make sure the baron goes, let the animal trainers take the crocs for a little while.
duck, make sure all of our units have those leather breastplates and such.
Bring some woodsman to place traps in the forest. Lure the natives into the trapped region of the forest, and commence combat.

>>10704441
What about using our wolves?

>>10704460
Didn't think of this.
duck, is the stallion better than an average horse in combat, or is it just aesthetics? If so, let the baron ride it into combat.

Let's see something exciting happen.
Rollin'.

Year 461 of our holy mother, July

a Raiding party went out with the intention of rescuing the miners as well as killing as many orcs as possible. Due to the fact they were guarding normandy, the militia could not be spared. so just the marines and Fessians were brought to battle.

Marching in plane site of the camp, the marines formed up a firing line while the fessians divided up onto each flank. The orcs ralleyed to battle and began to charge into the line with hachets and spears. The first volley must have hit at least 20 of their number, but only 10 went down, even then they continued the squirm. This caused the marines some worry as they quickly loaded another volley and let loose again. once more hitting many of the orcs but felling very few of them. In order the prevent the Orc charge from decimating the marines, the Baron charged forth with his fessians on horse back into the orcs.

having more effect, charging right through them and onwards to the camp to try and free the prisoners, while 14 and the baron circled around for another charge. At this point the marines had fired one more volley and began to charge as well. Despite being ferocious in combat, their numbered had dwindled so many from the volleys and the charge that they were quickly dispatched.

In the meantime, the work goes well on our frigate, which should be ready in around 3 more months.

+8 miners
-4 marines
-2 fessians.

>>10704533
I hate life as a newfag.

>>10704546
I really do give up. I really do. >_<

>>10704486

Stallion allows any special characters of riding 60km in one day, if they ride all day and most the night.

>>10704558
*Sighs heavily.* I give up.

>>10704538

From now on lets equip our marines with those iron breastplates we made.

>>10704558
It goes in the e-mail field as 'dice xdy' or 'dice+xdy'

>>10704599
Just read this on another site. xD It's too late for me to think properly.

>>10704633
No. NO. I'm never rolling again.

>>10701259
A small feast is in order for the rescue.

Are there any jobless citizens?

Can we borrow nets from the fisherman and raid the native settlement?

>>10704707
The small orc settlement on the left part of the map are allies.

For slaves that is.

>>10704707

You can i guess, but they are allies.

>>10704731
Did we manage to get any slaves from the victory?

Have our orcs allies recovered from the last attack yet? If they have recovered lets ask if they are up for some trading.

>>10704731
I meant the Stathborn settlement. Or have they all dispersed since the combat?

>>10704786

The orcs all seemed to be in some sort of battle trance of some sort, and it wasn't possible to try and capture any without loosing an appendage, so no.

DothClyde have recovered signifigantly, and are able to trade.

>>10704839

Send an emissary over and see what they want to trade.

rolled 11, 12 = 23

Rollin' to see what they have to trade.
((+5 to my roll if this actually works? xDD))

>>10704930

i only use rolls for random events, nothing else.

And yes, they will trade grain in exchange for what they got 'Ember drink', some sort of alcoholic beverage.

>>10704966

Lets accept that deal and make a counter offer to trade 10 breastplates now and 20 over the next 3 months if they help provide labor at our iron mine.

rolled 3, 4 = 7

>>10704966
How much grain?

>>10705026

They accept

>>10703654

Haha, this was awesome!

If we have any jobless we can have them work at the mine as well. Lets sample the Ember Drink.. if its good we export it along with some gold stuffs on the Eversor.

>>10705111
No. Get our brewers to find out what it's made of.

Is the gold mine at full capacity? Let's station a permanent guard at the iron mine.

>>10705132

Thats a much better idea. If we can though lets try to use as little as possible.

Also lets not forget a small feast for our rescued citizen and our brave soldiers.

try/discern the makeup of the Ember Drink, upgrade our docks to be able to build more big ships and get some serious fortifications at the southern mine.

Also, are the Militia standing troops or just guys who grab guns and look intimidating when the Marines are off fighting?

>>10705162
seconded

Year 461 of our holy mother, august.

Work continues on our frigate which will be done in 2 months time, although the slight problem of no cannons has arisen.

A deal has been made with the dothclyde tribe who will be providing us with several barrels of ember drink in exchange for 10 breasts plates now, 20 over 3 months as well as grain for 100 people. A slight problem has come from this though, as it seems that ember drink seems to cause some sort of 'high' in tieflings instead of the usual drunk in other races.

+labor in mines back to normal
+extra trade materials.

How many ships are being send back and forth between Europa and the colony?
2?

Anyway, we should work to attract as many new settlers as possible.

Standing militia are settlers who for the time being, are spending all of their working time as citizenry soldiers. They do not have any other job than being a militiamen, and are armed with either a sword, musket, or both.

>>10705236

Send an emissary to the tiefling town to see if they know of Ember Drink... if they don't we can sell it to tielfing nobility for crazy prices.

Have our brewers been able to find out what it is made of?

>>10705250

1, and you must order it to be sent back.

Can we station whatever militia are not necessary to guard the towns at the mine?

>>10705301

They've been able to discover it is some kind of fermented berry, but what berry they are not sure of.

>>10705326

Currently all militia are needed too guard the settlement of normandy. If you want to up your guard somewhere else, you must raise more militia or get more professional soldiers from europa.

Lets send out our scouts to bring back every kind of berry they can find and run some tests.

How much of the Ember drink is left? Ask the dutchess we are hiding if she knows of Ember Drink instead of sending an emissary.

>>10705292
we may as well make them a regular regiment then, if they're doing nothing else anyways, training hours, a legit command structure, and it would mean our Marines/Fessians wouldn't need to be worried about the safety of the colony when we send them off to combat, and the increase in professional soldiery would probably up our militarys overall morale.

>>10705372

You're scouts will bring back every berry they find. The duchess says that Ember Drink is banned in the Empire, although it is used by some nobility as a medicine to relieve pain and by common folk as a prohibited substance.

>>10705236
This is exactly what we needed. Pull resources together to find out exactly how this is made. Scout the camp, brewers find out what it is.
Once we find out how to produce this drink, we create barrels upon barrels, and sell to the Tieflings. The Tieflings will get high, and we can easily take over their colony.

>>10705357
>>10705383
May as well grow/consolidate it into a regular 50 man regiment, since Militia can bail/leave the militia if they dont like the odds of a fight, whereas actual soldiers HAVE to stay

>>10705418
>>10705412
Crap. >_< Oh well, we'll smuggle it into the city instead.

If our ship is not on the way back from Europa can it be?

>>10705418
that would probably piss off the exiled Tief royalty we're harboring though...

>>10705383

Heh, look, i see you post in alot of my threads about the '1st colonial regiment' But the problem is there just isnt numbers for a regiment. At best there are numbers for a company.

>>10705442
Well, we'll just smuggle the booze into the city to trade with the citizens. She doesn't have to know. Train rogues/smugglers.

>>10705442

Yes, she would not approve.

>>10705484
She doesn't have to find out.

Lets try to avoid starting a war just yet. For now we can sell the Ember Drink, dethweed(spelling?), and gold jewelry back home.

Lets start stock piling some good to export so we can send the Eversor back next month.

IDEA: Have the jewelers go to the orc camp for a bit and make some of the jewelry in native style so it can have a bit more of a exotic appeal to it.

>>10705484
Even better, lace her drinking water with the stuff. It's time to find out more information about our friends, the Tiefs.

>>10705445
I didnt say that, diferent organizations consider different numbers to be different levels in military organization. I just think that if they're sitting around playing soldier all day we may as well make them official, that way we can properly deal with it if they do something stupid, and dont have to worry (as much) about them braking/running off. *shrug* dont care what you call it, I just think it should be a more legit part of our gov't...

>>10705512
Dastardly thinking my friend... my kind of thinking >:)

We might be able to strike a deal with the nobility of that settlement.
We'll sell them ember drink, of course at high price as its banned goods.

Year 461 of our holy mother, September

Good and bad news

Good news, we've discovered the berry used in ember drink! Our brewers are brewing up the first batch to see if they can get the recipe right, although there will only be enough for 20 people with on flaggon, as they are relying on the hunters to forage for them.

The eversor has been sent back to europa and will arrive in three months with news of the colonies progress.

Bad news, the tiefling nobility has been discovered. It seems that one of our own Varinans, most likely a higher ranking officer, has informed the tieflings of her being here. Currently amassed outside our farm lands is a force of 30 marines and 10 hussars demanding her release. There are 3 clear options.
1. Release her back to the tieflings where she'll be arrested, causing unrest among our tieflings
2. Fight them back as we out number them and hope they do not return.
3. Due to politics at the time, if the duke or baron were to marry her, she'd fall under the authority of the kingdom of Varina and the Dorovan Empire could not make any demands without risking all out war in the colonies, which without having a large navy, they'd lose.

>>10705523

Ah, true. Well if we get 50 standing militia men ill allow the creation of the 1st Colonial Militia regiment.

>>10705626
what is the attractiveness/disposition of the Duchess, would she be worth it?

>>10705626

I am, not marrying anyone before we can see her picture :P

>>10705626
Give her up as long as we get some reward

>>10705626

Is she willing to marry the duke or baron..? Same goes for them.

Also find out who snitched on us.. I believe its time for the duke and doctor to team up again :D

Can't we just say that she's under our protection but we don't want to fight?

I do not have pictures of many tieflings on my PC, all i do have are male, so feel free to post your own. One would describe the Duchess as being 'exotic' due to her tiefling nature, standing at around 5'10. Her horns are only 4 inches long, which to put into perspective a military officers horns are 1 inch long while the emperors are 7 inches long. Her dynasty holds a small amount of power back in the Dorovan Empire, and while you will not control the dynasty, you will be able to draw upon some of its resources. As for looks, when shes all guissed up like all noblility is, shes about a 8. No make up, 7.

Her tail is only 4 feet long, too.

>>10705717
The tiefling emperor is the one who wants her head so that is not an option.

>>10705655
cool shit. I'm on board with that idea of course, but I'm just one anon... though it would probably allow the watchtower guy to get his way as well.
>>10705691
seconded
>>10705674
hell no, our Tiefling population has been hellu usseful and I dont think we should alienate them, lets see if she's worth marrying to our duke or baron

>>10705717

You say that, you will have a fight

>>10705674

somebody has already given her location and received
a reward, so that option is no longer possible.

>>10705691

She is all for marriage, being this the day where a woman can be married off just to get on somebodies good side.

How are Dorovans respected in Varina? Will a marriage to the Duchess hurt political aspirations back home?

>>10705745
Duke or Baron seem interested in marrying her?

>>10705745
Found a female Tief. Have fun guys.

I am not too hot marrying just because of this. But I don't want to give her away either. Nor do I want to have bad relations.


D: what do?

Ask for advice

>>10705745
go for it

>>10705793

Too slutty

>>10705780

among common folk who have not met them, feared and respected. Among the Nobility, Respected as they are the oldest nation on the face of the world, being over 3500 years old.

If the Duke's not into it get the Baron on board. Marrying a Duchess would be a step up for him.

>>10705784

Duke more so, baron is more of an elf man himself, but is willing.

Annah from Planescape Torment

>>10705793
Too skinny

>>10705780
this, will we piss off OUR sponsors if we do this?

>>10705838
Let the Duke have her then, we'll get an Elf for the Baron later on.

I'll keep looking.

>>10705847

eh, id say that plus horns and ALOT more clothing.

>>10705838

I guess there is only one option left.

Rock, paper, scissors!

>>10705887

The baron lacks the fingers for paper or rock.

If the duke is willing then ring the church bells and lets get this party started!

>>10705856
seconded, unless Varnia would rage at us over this, ahh fuck it, lets do it if she's down for it and so is the Duke there's no real reason NOT to as it will strengthen our situation here by at least a little bit

Last one. . .

>>10705870
oh, good.

Much better than that widow we keep getting reminded of once in a while

How about this?

We ARE the Duke, right?

>>10705928
>>10705936

no, no,

He said Annah >>10705847 plus a bit of horns is good.
Your pictures are scaring me.

>>10705838
do it then

>>10705958
Why? Those are actual tieflings and it'd be easier to picture the wife if we just used one of those rather than the picture of annah and being to told to imagine her plus tiefling features.

Year 461 of our holy mother, October

Wedding bells today in Serenity as Duke alexander marries Grand duchess Vera Feodorovna, which has gotten mixed reception. The tiefling population is glad as can be that the Duke has Married the Duchess, as well a fair few nobility back in Varina, But some of the settlers are not pleased that he has not married someone of the holy mother faith. But this is not the first, nor the last time a Varinan nobleman will marry a teifling.

News of this marriage has drawn 40 more settlers from the dorovan settlement as well as gotten the force outside the city to leave.

+Grand Duchess Vera Feodorovna
+40 settlers

>>10706049
cool, gently try to get the GD to convert to our faith. be subtle about it, if it works out, cool, if not, whatever

>>10706048

Yeah, infact i like her much better than the other one, just the horns are probably a tad too long.

Also, whoever that guy was, do you still want to raise the 1st colonial and build watch towers?

We never asked what the Duchess thinks of this though.

>>10706049
Recruit 20 tielfings into the militia :)...

How is the ember drink coming along? Also have our brewers mess around with the durthweed.

Lets use our stone to build better defenses around the iron mining camp.

>>10706132
>>10706093
that idea would get us up to 50, so we may as well

Rather than having a militia, can we start training them as soldiers? Complete with swords, breastplates and maybe a pistol?

Hey, maybe we'll keep a steady influx of thieflings now? We must do everything that they feel content in our settlement.

>>10706119

we already said shes fine with it

>>10706132

Brewers didn't get the right berry, instead the test batch caused humans and tieflings to burst out into spots and cause goblins males erections for 2-6 hours.

Congrats, you created goblin viagra, as if they needed it...

>>10706163

As a colony you cannot train up soldiers yet, the kingdom would not allow colonists to be trained as soldiers. Militia is allowed, though.

>>10706189

Take note of the recipe, may be profitable to sell to the Acrans.

>>10706189
I'm surprisingly o.k. with that. and yea, I think its time to switch the militia over to the 1st Colonial, with the necessary recruitment of course

>>10706189
lol

goblin viagra

>>10706197

When can we start training then?
Do we need special permission?

What's holding us back from producing cannons? If it's lack of personnel, can any of the new settlers be put to that job?

>>10706189
Tell the brewers to keep trying and to mess around a bit with durthweed. Send 20 tieflings to the militia and the other 20 out to gather berry's for the brewers.

Finally we might get the 1st militia formed

Well the Goblin Viagra is at least a possibly profitable failure. Even if most Goblins wouldn't need it we can try to sell it to the wealthy as a novelty.

year 461 of our holy mother, november.

The eversor has arrived in europa

Our new frigate is ready.

Recently to provide a constantly standing colonial ran army, 20 more tieflings were raised too standing militia, resulting in a total of 50, creating the '1st colonial brigade' lead by tiefling captain Petrovski. The new recruits are to be stationed in the 4 new guard towers built along the mining camp road, 4 per tower.

Also, trying with another berry, the brewers have come up with a cure for constipation, and also a new and unusual way for somebody to die.

Duck, are we able to produce cannons locally or must they be traded in Europa?

>>10706384

Currently they must be imported, in order to create cannons you need to upgrade your gunsmith, and have 10 iron per cannon.

>>10706357
excellent, shitting yourself to death. lets find a way to gift this to those violent orcs that keep cropping up. a caravan that seems just TOO easy to raid perhaps?

also, considering the new year is coming up, which is when i stop it, can somebody work on getting this archived? i got no idea? Also ill have a proper little story set aside about how the duke and doctor discovered the Traitor next time.

>>10706357
So wait, the new berry cures constipation and causes them to die? Does it have a prominent taste or odor? If it's just bland enough we can use it to create a poison. You can never have enough poison when you're working in colonial politics.

>>10706357
>come up with a cure for constipation

This is good. We can trade that.

>also a new and unusual way for somebody to die

That is bad. Did we lose anyone?

>>10706419

There are proper, less messy poisons around.

>>10706357

Save all the recipes. So far we have stumbled across 2 medicines both of which we can sell.

Tell the Eversor to bring some cannons for our ships. Also see if they can recruit a captain for our warship.
People wise
25 Marines
10 Fessian mercs
10 Settlers
15 farmers
20 Miners
20 Sailors for our new warship

>>10706430

after the first batch the brewers thought it would be best to test it on animals first, just to be safe. That cow must have been eating alot.

>>10706417
I'll get it archived at New Years.

What do we want to bring back from Europa? I nominate cannons since our frigate has none.

also you folks best be quick, i got to go soon.

How many cannons can a frigate hold? How many cannons is the limit the King will let us take back?

>>10706493

the frigate can hold eight cannons, and the king will allow you to take 8 cannons under the condition they are used on the frigate alone.

I agree with Hats' list.

>>10706514
Are we able to carry all 100 people and 8 cannons?

We need a captain for the Warbird(our ship).. that name kind of sucks :S

>>10706514
Hats list, minus 8 settlers, plus 8 cannons.
Settlers = Veteran settlers, of course.

Use these tags for archiving: Colonial Quest, colony quest

>>10706551
And colonial
That's what the one of the other two are under.

At maximum output how many units of iron will we get?

year 461 of our holy mother, december

Great news this month, the duchess is pregnant! The dukes son or daughter will arrive in 5 months (tieflings having a shorter gestation period than humans).

In addition news, the recipe to Ember Drink has been discovered! Took the brewers many tests and they had to wrestle a few sheep, but they've succeded.

The eversor is returning with its load of the following.

25 Marines
10 Fessian mercs
10 Settlers
15 farmers
20 Miners
20 Sailors

8 cannon

He also sends his best of wishes for the Dukes marriage and a marriage gift. 50kmsquare of land in Varina to be donated to the dynasty.

you either roll for a random event or i do, either way you get one

>>10706619
Set up 2 fields of the ember berry so we can begin producing Ember Drink.
Ramp up our brewery so we can handle the extra production and lets make some money.

Build a dock in Darana and a brewery there as well.

Lets build another inter-continental ship!

>>10706659
You're free to leave. You've given us the last month. We'll continue the next thread with January. Good luck man, now get out of here. xD

Alright, cya folks. as usual im leaving my email so you can either add me on msn to add any fluff or bitch at me for being a faggot. and if anybody is any good at drawing, i could REALLY use some help making a world map.

Thank you and good bye.

As I showed you in the e-mail, I'm thinking of making that map. Anyway, if I do go create the world map, I'd like to keep it consistent, so I recreated the original map in my own style. The result is above. Do you want a view, so that you can add buildings on the world map, or just a map to show territory?

>>10706827

Just a world map to mark political entities for when the game expands later on so i can draw up borders
