399 A.D: A Time of Dying Empires [OOC, Open, once again.]

[Halleon]

I will try to have a post up tonight if I can if then it will be finished tomorrow.

[New Aksarben]

I've never done a nation rp before. I'd like to see how other people post before I do.

I think one thread is sufficient, as long as we manage and stay organized.

the problem with that is actually doing diplomacy with your rules. negotiation can be long. people will have to compromise on stuff.

True. I'll think about it, and, if I see it fit to include an IC diplomatic thread, I will open one tomorrow.

umm yaa this is one of the problems of not choosing a real culture, The primary weapon and overall main weapon of kaza warfare as i specified in my app is the sling. We carry 3 of them, one around the waist, one around the head, and one on the arm, they vary in length. in your unit tree thing it says Celtic unit group Celtic war parties dont have fire. So this is going to be a problem since slings are supposed to be my main weapon and they are ranged weapons. My military is not composed of professionals instead composed of citizen soldiers who when called by the High king assemble themselves by their individual villages into units led by their chief and these units are all combined to make up an army who is led by a king and all the kings and their army come under command of the High King.

I'll make a Jax tech. Is "Mounted Scouts" alright with you for your cavalry?

[Ralnis]

I can't believe I am the only one in the isles that isn't suffering the effcets of over-extension so it looks like I have some room to grow.

[Kazarogkai]

Also to the Op thanks for the description you gave my people, it looks pretty good. You stated are administration is extremely deep and developed for an uncivilized nation. Just saying considering my rulers administrative abilities and the fact we only have like 1 province, Administration should be pretty easy even if my successor has a low administration skill. Administrative ability basically just means we are good at organizing things and collecting taxes right?

Your military will be about equal to most of them, except the Picts, who will get steamrolled by numbers if they try to attack anyone.

Do we have horses? last time I checked I stated we pretty much use canoes exclusively to get around, though we could state i have horses. I think a Canoe scout would be better since we are mostly naval and live near the coast.

Yes, and, in turn, raising an army and keeping the peace. Since you have one province, your productivity won't be as high as the others, but you will never suffer any over extension no matter what unless you expand.

Except Canoes aren't cavalry.

Well, with eight provinces, and an administration of eight, you are only suffering the minor overextension penalty. You're going to get hurt if your successor isn't so skilled, though.

if you are an island they sorta are.

So if I try to expand and try to become a hedgemony,it will be tougher? And how does one improve his administration?

If you become a hegemony, you will be able to hold 8 provinces with no penalty. And you don't. Just like in real life, no drastic changes can be made to one's personality. Just like in real life, your successor is never guaranteed, nor may he be good, or bad. It's more of a toss of the Gods' dice rather than anything else, especially back during this time period, where barbarians didn't really have a solid education.

I gave you Mounted Scouts, you aren't required to use them.
EDIT: Fack, forgot to do the ERE and Transoxthraxian histories.

[Halleon]

Got a post up and its not great but I was lacking information on how the number and what type of defenses would be in place on the ERE side of the Danube River. Another question I have is what would be the number of the Veraxian Host?

ok, I am cool with that, Call my main unit Jax Braves, to help you out I can make a unit sheet of sort and you can edit if you wish

Jaxfolk:
Jax Braves:
Shock: 2
Fire: 4
Morale: 4

Mounted Scouts:
Shock: 2
Fire: 1
Morale: 4

Host meaning your standing army?

Fine, I'll change the name.

[Halleon]

Yeah I mean my army to me the word "host" sounds more barbaric. The Main Host is under the Command of King Verax with two medium sized Host on each side of the Main Host with a number of smaller host of war band's. I think the defenders on the ERE border should be confused and somewhat overwhelmed by everything happening.

[New Aksarben]

how many provinces would my leader be able to administrate with a skill of 5?

[Ralnis]

how long does it take a NPC provenice?
