  • The current situation of the Kingdom - 1020 AD

    This is a comprehensive thread dedicated to decribing the game to the (hopefully) new members joining after the publishing of the News Item. And for Jamski

    The Map of the Kingdom:



    The Map of the Far Colonies:


    The Map of the World:

    (credits Makahlua )

    We are at war since last turn with Spain, from whom we just conquered Hot House, and from whom we shall conquer BigFurryCity, after the terrible culture flip they pulled on us!

    We are planning to send our troops to Madrid after that, right East from our capital New Asgard. Our Berzerkers shall strike fear in the hearts of the Spanish riflemen.

    Technologically wise, we are well, well behind. When our enemies alrady have ironclads, we are still stuck with galleys. When they have riflemen (and soon infantry), we have only our mighty axes to crush them. But for now, we are the only ones to have the superior ability to attack directly from the sea.

    Diplomatically, we are only at war with Spain, but everybody is annoyed with us. We export most of our gems, our sole luxury, and we import wine from France. It is being discussed whether we should strike a luxury deal with Rome.

    We have no wonders, but we shall soon end up having the Lighthouse of Madrid

    We are grinding our axes for this war. Whether it will bring us to greatness or doom, we shall see. And we shall see no later than the next Senate Session (turnchat) planned Saturday at noon in AustraliaEST, i.e. Saturday at 02:00 GMT, or Friday at 6pm PST.

    Saturday 0200 GMT is a bad time.

    I like the map though, lots of rather pleasant island groups. And I love the Aztec city in a LAKE

      Spiffor is there a chance you can post your pics so they can be seen, not having to open each one ?

        I'd like to, but I don't know how to link to an uploaded pic so that it shows directly

              I did, but it seems the [img] tags don't allow dynamic adresses.

              Wait, I'll try with real HTML tags

              Edit: it works Though maybe I should avoid linking directly to the big pic of our core kingdom, since it'll eat up much bandwidth, and make my post inconvenient to read.

                  What was the reason for going after spain in the first place?
                  Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing?

                    They have culture-taken BigFurryCity, the evil bastids!

                    And we feel we must expand at all costs if we ever want to win this game (just look at the map I linked to: our empire is medieval, while all our neighbours are industrial)

                          Have you seen the step-by-step outline I suggested to take Madrid? Please tell me if you see any problem with it, or if you disagree with my suggestion of building pikemen in some cities who'll lose their "police" forces.

                            actually, I would like every one to read through these two threads prior to the senate session beginning

                            Please read through these two threads before the senate session:

                            The War Room: Objective Spain

                            The current situation of the Kingdom - 1020 AD

                            we may not take every step as you have described Spiffor, but that is the way of democracies

                              Absolutely. Those are just proposal I personally feel being the best. However, I'm aware I'm not the best player out there, and I can't predict the AI's decisions, so it's only normal you adjust the plan to whatever is needed
