The Last Civilization - OOC/Signups

[United Soviet Jason Republic]

Name: The Empire of Leto
Short history:

Timeless Era:

During this time the Empire did not exist. The lands of Leto where inhabited by small nomadic tribes. Culture in this time was based off of rich offerings to the gods. Water was a prized possession in the desert. As time progressed small fishing villages arose on the coasts. Often they were raided by the nomads seeking fish and water. However trade between tribes slowly began to start.

Classical Era:

One of the name fishing villages slowly rose to prominence. The city, Leoto, prospered in this time. Holding off nomadic attacks the city state began to grow, taking over near by villages and getting the allegiances of several nomadic tribes in the inner desert.

Late Classical Era: As a Leaoto rose so did other villages that became cities. All of these small city states traded with each other. None crossed the sea to the east. As trade grew so did more alliances. These alliances would start a war when the heir to a minor city was killed. This was swallowed up all of the cities.

Shadow era: The endless war ensued. Bands of warriors and armies plundered the great cities of the east. Food and farming, dependent on the east, collapsed. Many fled the cities into the desert. As the wars ensued and upstart monarchs were killed the society collapsed.

Late Shadow Era: A small band of nomads met together. Representing their tribes they met under the banner of peace. This was a rare occurrence. With food and animals scare the nomadic tribes of the west needed to get their act together. Swearing a blood oath to the Leiam Family these tribes united in the Empire. Their first ruler, Chief Leto, quickly combined the military force of these factions. Under one banner Leto rose to storm eastern city after eastern city. On the ruins of Leoto the king began construction of a new city. The Empire has now grown and stability has been reached. Nomads make up the majority of the military force, protecting the farmers and fishers in return they get the goods they desire.

Wait G-Tech you have to be more clear with you postions I thought you're where at firing range.

Ah, I thought "The army made camp for the night near the fortress, out of range of cannon fire, with screening elements deployed; the second host had already passed by" was fairly clear.

Hmm so in that case let me edit it I assumed masking meant getting closer to the fort so please excuse my ignorance.

Sure, no worries. I'll have to edit too then

[G-Tech Corporation]

Out of curiosity, Levis, how does gossip know of the disappearance of the boys' families? Only some of the families were directly involved, while others were merely implicated by the captives. Someone might put two and two together, but not immediately.

...I also have no intent to attack Fort Horton, or come near it, so there's that.

@Hark

Wow, I've been out of the game for nearly a week! Anyway, I posted a reply to your post a minute ago, just in case I don't finish today's post for today.

Sorry for the lack of posts recently, some RL issues happened that I had to take care of... everything good now! Anyway, I will post tomorrow

Who you are: Vercingetorix & Rencini
What you want: A diplomatic union of a few tribes to the west (or was it east? I don't remember what I wrote too well), plus land in-between the taiga/conifer forests to the west of mainland Tredera.
Where you want it: Some land to the west of my civ, plus the annexation of the aforementioned land.
Anything else: Will post tomorrow for the latter land, one of my most recent IC posts details the previous one.

I am guessing we are going to be neighbors via my colony?

Yup, you got it; maybe we can trade too. I dunno, maybe we can claim the island for ourselves against the more advanced Trederan civs (don't worry, I can give fleet basing rights to allies )

Hmm it's pretty noticeable when entire families disappear and they happened to be the related to the rebels who are fighting back.Plus I'm sure your men speak of this atrocious action word spreads quick through the small village remember in rural towns like this everyone knows everyone and their normal activities.

I see will have to edit that but my men from Ravana are about to confront you,are you close to Vela?

Nah, I'm not bothering with Vela. That's Zyra's affair. Good to know you've pulled your entire army there to defend it though

It could be noticeable; then again, it might not be. Those in open rebellion disappeared, but those who talked of rebellion disappeared as well. And why would my Outlookers talk? They have no contact with the locals. All the people of the towns of Leon know is that in the morning houses are empty, left as if their owners packed up and moved suddenly, and the doors are decorated with the words "Shadow and Mist'.

Really you don't have soldiers in the town? Plus my people aren't stupid they know their folk wouldn't just leave like that and shadow and mist big sign of what happened also you can't get rid of everyone some must've escaped and told what happened.Basically people tied to the rebels disappeared just like that please they know.

Also I'm pretty sure I can handle New Zyras by its self.Once thats done I'll confront you.

Oh crap... CHEESE IT!

[Levis Avara]

G-Tech my people would never side with a people has cruel has yours so best change that now.Also I hope you realize your definitely the tyrant in this situation now.

[Seno Zhou Varada]

G-Tech the plan man the plan! Well for score anyway.

[Seno Zhou Varada]

BAD LEVIS BAD! No copying other franchises!

Soldiers in the towns? Sure, stationed in their garrisons. They only leave garrisons to make arrests though, or at night. I'm not saying they wouldn't have known the people didn't leave of their own accord; I'm merely saying the ambiguity of dead or alive is there. Furthermore, why would someone escape? We're talking about trained military officials, essentially secret police, versus citizens waking from their sleep. Escape seems remarkably implausible. And again, not only those tied to rebellious youths disappeared; for all the Arceans can tell, some hotheaded families are gone, as well as others.

G-Tech my people would never side with a people has cruel has yours so best change that now.Also I hope you realize your definitely the tyrant in this situation now.

Cruel is a matter of perspective; man is a selfish creature. Only some of the villages have been in open rebellion, whereas the majority have seen no real change except for the name of their governing authority far away, and the introduction of a police force. Tyrant? Nah. A tyrant would depopulate the region, and leave none alive. Much easier than dealing with a restive population humanely. If you want me to be a tyrant, I can be a tyrant.

G-Tech the plan man the plan! Well for score anyway.

Ah, yes, fair point.

Edit: Also, if we're talking assassin networks; the Hall of Whispers is far more skilled than those associated with the Phoenix Order, so your assassins are bumbling amateurs, really. And the wagons don't move in some sort of impractical five-guard convoy; they travel together, in large wagon trains, and are not guarded by mere soldiers, but by agents of the Hall of Whispers. This is their charge, directly from the Highprince himself.

I know this a independent spy network they can't steal tech or anything like that just freeing the innocent and causing has much hell has possible for you.Basically a external force.

[G-Tech Corporation]

What would you prefer I send you Seno; Ag, In, Culture?

Another point, Levis; while I have RPed casualties for you once, with the killing of rioters, I should note that RPing the other person's casualties should only be done in appropriate circumstances. For instance, when you thought the army of the Highprince was marching over your explosives, you dictated thousands of casualties. That's my job. In the same way as how I didn't determine how many men my cannons killed during the battle for Siochanna, I'd appreciate if you extended the same courtesy to my military forces, be they vast hosts or caravan escorts. Obvious matters are one thing, like firing canister shot on a mob, or three hundred cannons at a single ship. Matters with more variability though, should be left to their controlling player.

An external force created... when exactly?

And funded by whom?

And who just happens to be RPed by you?

A hand in the glove is just another extension of your Espionage score, Levis. If you want to divide your score between two organizations, more power to you, but an independent organization with no backing can hardly be more effective than a national force.

Yeah. Stealing is just horrible for RP. I understand basing it on something but no for direct stealing.

Could it be considered anachronistic that I've invented the hot air balloon? Because the first hot air balloon was flown in 1783.

[Military Democracy of Birtonia]

Are there currently any other natives? And also how should i start my first post? Or should i wait till someone goes to colonize my lands?

No, Ralnis is currently inactive and you should start Role-playing whenever you feel like it. I think each native can also add 2 score to a category of their choice with each passing RL day (though keep in mind that espionage is an exception).

I recommend you to develop some kind of mystery in your civilization which the explorers can then solve... By the way, I can unreveal your portion of the map. Just don't show it to anyone.

Alright sounds good to me, but since today is veterans day and im still serving, ill be partaking in festivities all day (Ill be drunk!) so no promises of posting today lol.

And yes please do for my records.

Honestly, Levis, I'm amused by nationalistic sentiment in Arcea at all. Nationalism is a product of cities and industrialization, and your civilization is very spread out for your population size. Even I don't really have nationalism, and I'd hazard I have the most industrialized civilization.
