Orders for the Explorers

[Togas]

Now that we have several expeditions searching the land around Madrid, we need to ensure that they are lead by the finest commanders in our midst.

Senor PlagueRat leads the "T.E.G." group.

I will now assign Senor Pikesfan to lead the Magyar Group, and to ensure that these natives remain true to their pledge to serve Spain.

I need to appoint a leader for the Madrid Expedition. I would ask Senor Dejon to do this, but I know that with the recent tragedy in his family, this may be a poor time to ask him to leave the city.

I need a volunteer to step forward to lead the 3rd expedition.

I ask that all expedition commanders state their directions in this thread. If you fail to guide your expedition, I will see to it that orders are sent. I may also send specific orders for your expedition to follow, if the people of Spain deem it necessary to further serach a new land.

I need to make sure my ideas of directions are the same a s everyone else’s.

For example, if we look at the current (3550) Madrid turn,
N of Madrid is a hill
NE is the Madrid Expedition
E is the cow
SE is a small forest
S is the forest on the other side of the river with a deer
SW is the hill on the other side of the river
W is a grassland
NW is a hill

[pikesfan]

3450 (i.e. 1 turn after 3500)

The Magyars will go SW to the next hill (S being the silk and W being a desert).

[Crousto]

Great Lord Togas, if Señor Dejon can't make it, I hereby steps forward to lead the Madrid Expedition towards the northern lands. Madrid may be the most beautiful city in the world, but an adventurer like me needs to leave the comfort of the city and conquer new worlds for the glory of España.

Us TEGs are planning to head for the peak at NW, through the jungle...
Ouch, damn leeches. oh, look at all that blood!

[pikesfan]

3400 (i.e. 2 turns after 3500)

It looks as if there are hills both S and SW of the next turn’s hill.

If there are two hills, go S.
If there is only one hill, go to it, whether it is S or SW.
If there are no hills, go S.

My general orders will be to remain within sight of the sea and determine what is the shape of the land we are on.

The Magyars believe that in the sea there are spirits which give them strength, and so if they go to a place where they can’t see it, they will sicken and die. That also explains why they never attacked our city: we were too far inland.

We already did 3500BC, and according to GhenghisFarb, 3450BC is in Togas' email.

[pikesfan]

I edited my years, now that I know that 3450 is being played as I write this. Could someone post a list of the upcoming turn years? I don’t want to say “this turn, next turn” because it isn’t clear enough.

[mrmitchell]

eh...

I think there's
3400BC
3350BC
3300BC
3250BC
3200BC
3150BC
3100BC
3050BC
3000BC

I think, I cant remember past that

[Arnelos]

Just call them "Turn 1", "Turn 2", etc. for now?

[pikesfan]

3350
i.e. Turn 1 after 3400

SW
along the hills continuing in the same direction

3300
i.e. Turn 2 after 3400

SW (for now)
along the hills continuing in the same direction

[Togas]

I plan on sending TEG -- West, and Madrid -- North. Will follow Pikesfan's suggestion for Magyar.

Any comments?

It is like that : 50 years per turn until 2750 then 40 y/t for a while (around 1750).

4000 BC 1
3950 BC 2
3900 BC 3
3850 BC 4
3800 BC 5
3750 BC 6
3700 BC 7
3650 BC 8
3600 BC 9
3550 BC 10
3500 BC 11
3450 BC 12
3400 BC 13
3350 BC 14
3300 BC 15
3250 BC 16
3200 BC 17
3150 BC 18
3100 BC 19
3050 BC 20
3000 BC 21
2950 BC 22
2900 BC 23
2850 BC 24
2800 BC 25
2750 BC 26
2710 BC 27
2670 BC 28
2630 BC 29
2590 BC 30


So we are in turn 13/3400BC.

Olá dictatõre...

After scibbling this 3400BC map an obelisk we put up here on top of Sierra Panthera, (as we just named the peak),
we can see that we will avoid entering this jungle once again,
if we head our noses to the west. So that's good!

Togas - Senor Dijon Dejon is accompanying the Madrid Expedition, but is not responsible for their direction, as far as he knows. Senor Crousto Mendoze is willing to do the task.
