Finsternia, what`s up with your god praying to someone.
Seems like a somewhat odd action for a god.

It is hard to make a 92% lethal plague more chaotic. Especially when the entire source of it has been placed under guard from the navies of everyone who could send ships to help (US, Germany, France, etc.)

Just do it.
Chaos promotes radicalism and extremism.
Both are quite a bit favourable for me though not the very best options.

Reactions to what happened abroad. I figured this would make sense and deserves its own roll. For the sake of making sense the series of rolls will treat it like you got a 1 on the British reactions and a 2 for reactions in the British Commonwealth. So let us begin, I will mostly be going for major and important nations for their reactions.

1-2-9-10-5-4-8-8-6

1: The British take this very poorly of course. The Royal Navy is getting trigger itchy too.

2: Reactions across the British Commonwealth is scarcely better. The Royal Canadian Navy has taken to the sea and has joined up with the Royal Navy while the Royal Australian and the Royal New Zealand Navies have been put on alert. Anti-German protests are going on in Australia, New Zealand, and Canada.

9: China has mostly nodded along stating "they understand civilian casualties were an unavoidable event in the course of things and that they will stand by Germany and her decision"

10: On the home front the German people fail to understand why people are complaining and reiterates their belief that this course is correct. The home front is united in belief that they are saving the UK. The German Government has stated that they are behind General Strasse.

5: The United States has condemned the action but aren't taking much action beyond that. They are trying to closely watch what is going on thanks to satellites and their images.

4: Russia has reacted poorly to this and has ordered an increase of their immediate war surplus by putting in more orders to their industry.

8: Japan has not reacted at all though the commoners seem to approve of the action for the sake of stopping it.

8: Not much reaction out of India either besides some grumbling approval out of Anglo-phobic people.

6: While South Africa has not issued a opinion on it plenty of people are unhappy about it but has resorted to grumbling.

I simply rolled and the higher the roll the more meh or supportive they were. Britain and the Commonwealth would not have taken kindly to it so they were naturally supposed to have a low score. As for the others I rolled and then based how they would behave after a combination of history and guessing how they would react in a this scenario if it did occur. Plus people tell me I am normally good at politics this way if I have enough knowledge of history and current affairs.

Ok, and I mean absolutely no offense here - but I think the dice rolls and the plot development are a little arbitrary.

I mean, we are having world-changing, shocking events that are deciding the fates of entire countries within the first few pages; when the Gods have less than 500 followers each. Additionally, there doesn't appear to be any difficulty in the "hard" rolls - for instance, we are having key government officials fall to shadowy cults without much difficulty. World-shattering plagues and a huge disparity in follower gains (some Gods gain ten followers even if they get a 8, 9, or 10 - while others are gaining hundreds with a 5 or 6) and there doesn't seem to be any point at all to money. Cults and Gods can do anything regardless of their cash flow. I have yet to see a point to gaining more money, since it doesn't affect the dice rolls. You could recruit the President into your cult without much difficulty, and then at that point, who the hell needs money?

To sum it up, I'm not entirely happy with how the dice rolls are set up. There doesn't seem to be any guidelines and the plot is advancing very haphazardly.

How Follower increase is carried out

  • Until a certain threshold is reached (to be decided on later) every number on the dice represents a variable of 10%
  • Any number that winds up as a decimal will be rounded to the nearest whole number
  • In a play that requires multiple dice rolls a 10 on the dice gives you a percentage bonus of 10% (unless it is the final roll in said series, then no increase)
  • In a play that requires multiple dice rolls a 1 represents a reduction of 5% (unless it is the final roll in said series, then no reduction)
  • Under Rules 3 and 4 the percent of follower increase cannot exceed 100% (excluding something like a special bonus which does not figure into it) nor can it be lower than 5% (penalty beyond this can still be applied and does not figure into it). So no 110% or 0% or anything like that.
  • If you receive a 10 on the dice you will get an added bonus to whatever it is your doing, be it money, a few more followers, being able to do the event again or something similar without needing to do rolls for it again, etc. If you receive a 1 however you receive the opposite because something terrible has happened.
  • All rolls are to be handled by myself and Coops

No that isn't what I rolled.
5: France has condemned the attack but the people are divided because half the population thinks that this plague needs to be stopped no matter what the cost while others think that it is far too brutal.

no, but your rolls happen to exactly match what would actually happen in this situation. Germany goes full destruction, cihna roots for the warmongers, The russians build an arsenal and the us says "Stahp that right there missur" but doesnt actually do anything.

5: France has condemned the attack but the people are divided because half the population thinks that this plague needs to be stopped no matter what the cost while others think that it is far too brutal.

Good.
I`ll get my London attack post up in about 6-7 hours.

I found this. I think it's a training video to raise a hardened Nazi, but I think we can still use it XD

I mean, we are having world-changing, shocking events that are deciding the fates of entire countries within the first few pages; when the Gods have less than 500 followers each. Additionally, there doesn't appear to be any difficulty in the "hard" rolls - for instance, we are having key government officials fall to shadowy cults without much difficulty. World-shattering plagues and a huge disparity in follower gains (some Gods gain ten followers even if they get a 8, 9, or 10 - while others are gaining hundreds with a 5 or 6) and there doesn't seem to be any point at all to money. Cults and Gods can do anything regardless of their cash flow. I have yet to see a point to gaining more money, since it doesn't affect the dice rolls. You could recruit the President into your cult without much difficulty, and then at that point, who the hell needs money?

To sum it up, I'm not entirely happy with how the dice rolls are set up. There doesn't seem to be any guidelines and the plot is advancing very haphazardly.


How Follower increase is carried out

  • Until a certain threshold is reached (to be decided on later) every number on the dice represents a variable of 10%
  • Any number that winds up as a decimal will be rounded to the nearest whole number
  • In a play that requires multiple dice rolls a 10 on the dice gives you a percentage bonus of 10% (unless it is the final roll in said series, then no increase)
  • In a play that requires multiple dice rolls a 1 represents a reduction of 5% (unless it is the final roll in said series, then no reduction)
  • Under Rules 3 and 4 the percent of follower increase cannot exceed 100% (excluding something like a special bonus which does not figure into it) nor can it be lower than 5% (penalty beyond this can still be applied and does not figure into it). So no 110% or 0% or anything like that.
  • If you receive a 10 on the dice you will get an added bonus to whatever it is your doing, be it money, a few more followers, being able to do the event again or something similar without needing to do rolls for it again, etc. If you receive a 1 however you receive the opposite because something terrible has happened.
  • All rolls are to be handled by myself and Coops

I don't see any of that applying to followers, and I think it's being changed from God to God.

For instance, when I rolled a 5, with 60 followers(it has yet to be increased by the previous followers I gained in this action) I received 12 followers.

Meanwhile, in other rolls, despite not getting a ten, rolls like this happened.

9-8-6

9 - With both of them combined, you manage to convert a total of 135 followers
8 - the nameless soldier does very well at converting low ranks (128 low ranked soldiers to be precise)
6 - Farrah does fairly well at converting officers (since officers I would think would be like artists and such, out of the 135, you manage to convert 7 officers)


Which resulted in a way more than a 100% increase in followers. I don't the rules are being followed.
