Oh, in case you missed it in the wall o' text that was my last post, I'm sending an ambassador on a merchant ship.


Oh? I saw that, but I was not sure if they had arrived yet or what. When I get my post up, just post your ship out in the harbor. A harbor patrol vessel will approach and make sure you are no trouble, and then guide you in.

Ah, okay. I'm making an IC post in the next few minutes, but I wanted to make sure you got a chance to respond. I'll have the buildings of your port (whatever it is) appear in the distance.

Can you make alist on the map of alocational nations? Also, I know its nit-picking but I was asked to make Braazna blood red.

Alright. And just to let you know, Ultan is massive. I mean, really big. The city is built into a mountain, sloping downwards. The city actually builds on top of itself, so there are other levels. Like there is the ground floor, and you look up and there are some bridges and stuff, and then more buildings. In fact, lots of buildings are only accessible by bridges, as some of them sit on top of other buildings. Imagine it like an ancient, not as large Hive city from W40K.

Oooh, quite impressive. The Veritch build fairly standard 14th century cities with the exception of two structures---the Hall of Sleep and the Temple of the Skies Above. I'll have them be suitably impressed by your novel and unique architecture.

I believe my post didn't go through last night. That is very, very annoying. Wrote one up, and it didn't go through after I had a little power surge. I'll see what I can post.

We work quickly. I'll get a post up. I'm going to withdraw from the Strait talks, as I've probably been holding them up.

Dan, G-Tech, I have my post up.

Dan, I really am not sure what to do with the whole meeting, so I hope you have an idea in what I presented.

God damn it, I don't know where the fuck to go with this now :/ I mean, Thom Pabu can follow the dude around, but unless there's some kind of blacksmiths or gunpowder manufactory or something similar around, they probably won't gain anything. However, if they find something like that, there'll be a positive association with the Rims for future dealings. Now, I don't really see what I can post straight away though. All that I could put right now are 'The crawler is making strange gestures with a vessel filled with liquid. The liquid exudes an abhorrent odour. The air is still clammy.'

Amusing, but you'd have this communication barrier no matter what species you contacted.

;-; they dont like my cathedral. But uh, I mean, there will be no gunpowder in a church. If they landed in the city, they would probably come across a powder works.

Well they don't really know what it is to be fair. Could there be a smithy? I doubt they can read or anything. I might just have to send them wandering away again, which would be rather unfulfilling.

What should I do now that I've discovered gunpowder and sent out emissaries?

Should I just keep expanding North or.....?

RP an emissary arriving and establishing relations with another species. Go to war with someone. Palace intrigue. More advancement. Build another city. Turn into a tyrannical dictator and have your people overthrow you. Whatever you feel like.

Alright :p
I'll have my emissaries arrive and build my first port, (which means the map would need to change.)

I'll have some Tyranid Expeditionary Colonial Forces land on the coast near you. You'll probably have some people fleeing from the invasion and hearing these terrible stories about these bugs coming from the sea and eating everything.

Expect to start hearing stories of the Tyranids landing at some northern positions.

That's probably not a good sign then.
