New Civilizations [OOC | Open]

[The Orson Empire]

Hey G-Tech, since Turner is now a Brightlord, would he be tattooed like all other Imperial citizens?

Wait what?

I've sworn fealty to the Imperium.

[Ralnis]

Alright but nothing too much.


He's a tributary, but not a full blown colony.

Well, you are asking to establish bases in my nation

Yes, but there's only so much I would trade.

Wait what?

I've sworn fealty to the Imperium.

History says as a tributary though.

[Revlona]

Free Trade

Sharing of Tech

Turning a blind eye to Roberts antics

Turning a blind eye to Roberts antics

What would Robert's antics be in this case besides occasional violence and dispensing uncessary amounts of justice?

Just violence and extreme amounts of justice dispensing (declaration of wars on accused tyrants and the so)

Indeed, such would be the case. As would a significant chunk of Blue Lagoon’s populace, given the timeframe.

“History and the sciences” still covers just about all the knowledge under the sun. I’m still going to have to ask you to specify.

I can turn a blind eye unless it crosses the interest of Bob as that may happen or his justice dispensing and violence spreads into my lands.

Free trade I can do, that's a given since I think Zanzibar, and Madagascar in a lighter sense, will be important trade and naval bases. It will be more of a focus to establish a green water navy.

Sharing of tech is something I can't fully do, snippets of tech I could share, but full sharing would be something that would take time to do. Bob will be hesitant of sharing with Robert because of pre-conceive notions and wanting to see the future of this alliance and the patrols of his army and navy to make sure Robert wouldn't turncoat at the sight of Imperial aggression.

[Skarten]

Hey Gs, how's my timeline?

Das gut, with one caveat- using gunpowder to breach the walls of Apollonia before the end of the timeskip would be breaking with precedent of "one timeskip to develop blackpowder", so you'll have to think of a different way to put down the revolt.

"Large knowledge base" is extremely nebulous, as is "smart". Perhaps you could specify? That would be excellent, thanks.

Now,i understand that.But,woudn't have something changed in the 15 Years?
At least,Yaroshima would've won an considerable amount of power within the Confederacy.

Sure. People are no doubt more acclimatized to the Confederacy sum total now, and less likely to leave it on a whim. But there's no real reason Yaroshima's relative power would have increased simply through the passage of time- if anything his power will be diffusing, as the other tribes within the Confederacy 'modernize' and adopt the things that formerly gave Yaroshima a power advantage.

No, I'd say out of the roughly 500 Yamatzon in the capital I can trust about 200 of them.
Well, my original plan was bringing in gear slowly, then men slowly, then charge. That's still my plan right now. My plan is bringing in 350 men over a one-year period to then charge the Council hall with gear stored in the city. Still basically the original plan.
Given that plan, can I have an odds estimate?

I did already quote you the odds of your initial plan- about a one-third chance of military success.

Hey there would it be alright if I began experimenting with steam power, because I know the principles of how it works but I'm not sure how to build one however that's what experimenting is for.

Sure- the only thing we have any restrictions on really right now is blackpowder, though I will say that making a bronze boiler is going to be very expensive.

I'm considering a concept idea, but I haven't really developed it. If there are "magic powers" I'd want it to relate to Immortality. A good example is quantum break where the protagonist/player is given time travel powers rather than becoming a magi pope.

...sorry, I'm not sure I follow. Could you rephrase that at all?

We would want some things in return

Hmm. That gives me an idea for my next post.

Well,if i remember i did say he tried to get allies.
So,okay,let's just say the confederacy got bigger,Yaroshima got more "Allies" (As in, let's say.65% People Could "Support him",But,if a civil war was to happen,maybe 40% Would Be in his side since the start?)
I mean,it might be a little bit too high.But that's your decision as OP.I guess.

[Xah]

So is there an IC thread yet? The one linked to at the top of this thread states 'Closed'; is it closed to all? Or open to approved players?

Secondly, what's the deal when someone first arrives? How much of the WTF and initial hardship can be waved away for the sake of Plot?

You arrive naked at the place you choose.Most of the first meeting with the natives,as i've seen,is,for example,you find hunters,they bring you to their village,you realize you're in ancient time,etc,etc.
The IC Thread is not open yet (This was after a timeskip.)
Also,it's open to everyone i guess.

Yes the IC thread is open. A hyperlink in below the Middle Eastern town on the second to the right by the words "Old Lore" and is open to approved players.

The much of the WTF moments can be waved up to three months into your character's first post. Your going to be stalk naked, expect for glasses if you have that weakness, and first interactions with the natives go.

I could allow you the base with just the snippets, but the base and patrolling my waters needs them all

If you want to become a ruler,i adivse you go to Asia.
Korea,for example,is free.
Europe is "taken" by this giant red blob on the map known as the Imperium of Man

[Skarten]

Anyway,i feel like with the right equipment and good weather,one could go to the mainland from Japan.

Then lets work with that then see what comes with it.

Also, how much of Ethiopia do you claim?

Anyway,i feel like with the right equipment and good weather,one could go to the mainland from Japan.

Give me a couple decades since I do know my sailing tech, you could see a wayward expedition coming from the east probably from Sri Lanka.

It says "Closed" because that's how G signifies that the IC is closed unless you're an approved player (with an approved app). Long as you've been accepted, you can post.

Secondly, the initial stuff should be done, is important, and the first few days are important if you like, but once you get a bit in you can start skipping weeks and months and stuff in posts.

So

1 Base for Free trade, A blind eye, and snippets of technology
Sold to the person in the undisclosed clothing

Also, I control Somali and Afar

Anyway,i feel like with the right equipment and good weather,one could go to the mainland from Japan.

Give me a couple decades since I do know my sailing tech, you could see a wayward expedition coming from the east probably from Sri Lanka.

[Ralnis]

My claim will be the rest of Ethiopia and I will set up a base in the Afar Region because of close proximity which will happen pretty soon.

If i'm lucky enough,i'll consolidate my power before the next timeskip.Then,i'll probably be able to send an expedition once everything's done in my kingdom (As in,i became a king or whatever,and we're "stable").
I could use some horses.For mah samurai.The Horses here still not be good for riding.

Aren't you down in Tanzia?

You still have to get through kenya first, and I was planning on going a little deeper into ethiopia

Yeah but with I'm guessing the Nubians will also be in Kenya as well as Tanzania, so when I mean pretty soon, I mean in a few years after the Nubian Crisis that my people will face.
