So what’s the difference as we enter the civilization stage, if you can summarize? I’m probably going to wait.

4 citizens move into each of the 3 food-production roles. In light of recent events 10 become devoted soldiers and there’s no new traders .

The fishermen of Xirimiri, hearing news of a hostile nation, decide to research watch towers so they can see anyone coming up the coast. Others similarly get to work on defenses. The herders, farmers and healers dig deep, wide lightly stake-filled trenches in strategic locations on the approach to the village. The fishers of Laestrygonia and the new soldiers work on better bows, and the traders head to Britannia looking for new ways to turn bronze into weapons. In exchange they will offer navigation by the stars (or whatever other single tech tier blackjack feels like).

They are pretty similar, but the main difference is that the civ stage has more complex relations and economies. Right now, it’s pretty straightforward, trade=good and attack=bad, while more population=strong. But in the civ stage, there will be more factors like military might, economic strength, different cultures. You will also have inner conflicts in your cities like crime and corruption. You can also gain international prestige from monuments and I might even add tourism and pilgrimages. I didn’t really use stability in the village interstage but it’ll probably be more useful in the civ stage.

I want two global actions, so I think it’s time for The Great Mexican Colonisation:D
Action: Send 30 men to create a new settlement north of Tenochtitlán. The settlement will be named “Solàtempa” because it sounds cool.

1197

A question, isn’t it Moctezuma? Or is there a reason why it’s called Montezuma?

1198

Wait what are you talking about?
Montezuma is the name of the leader lol

1199

It’s the Nover confusion, because the name is like Moctezuma I thought “Hey why does it say Montezuma? Shouldn’t it be Moctezuma?”, probably is just a random thing but E

Montezuma sounds like “Mount Zuma” (just a random thought)

Sorry, you need to have at least 100 population before establishing another village.

Questions & Comments

What a coincidence. I had a power outage too yesterday, so I couldn’t go to my PC.

Dictionary Entry (don’t repeat those words kids)

belgium.: Fornication Under the Cover of the King. A pass made by the British Crown that allows someone to reproduce with someone else without having a marriage.

F*H*U*C*K: Fornication Hospital Under the Cover of the King. A place where the ladies of the night can reproduce privately with citizens and strangers.

Jobs

  • I promote 4 of my soldiers to the rank of Knight for their courage, honour and loyalty (bonus for both combat & politics).

My actions

  • I, Arthur, King of Londinium, give all the Ladies of the Night a belgium., so that they may reproduce with Britons and non-Britons legally. Whoever tries to arrest them will be jailed for three hours or will simply receive a warning if they don’t know about the meaning of belgium. (increases the population).

  • All handymen are ordered to build a F*H*U*C*K unit for the Ladies of the Night (I don’t know how it could change the gameplay; maybe it could increase the roll for the ladies or simply give an additional population).

  • All farmers are introducing wheat into their agriculture.

  • The fishermen are trying to catch fishes by creating a fishing net.

  • Metalworkers are crafting iron armours.

  • Hunters are going to trap wolves without killing them.

  • Traders try to invent the British pound (currency).

  • 5 Philosophers research on basic biology and the other philosophers research on animal testing for toxicology.

  • Soldiers and Knights are establishing a guard post within Londinium.

Sorry for the language, but it had to be done.

1202

Oh, that’s fine. I guess I’ll expand Tenochtitlán then by constructing more houses.

1203

Alternatively, you could bypass that by allying or conquering an NPC civ and claim their village.

1204

Alliance with a NPC sounds pretty cool, but I need to explore first. For now I’ll just fix my own situation and I’ll aim to be the strongest country in the region, so an alliance with me could be profitable for any leader nearby.

1205
Sure, you’re the strongest in your region. You’re the only one.
EDIT: Guys, can I remove my summaries in my last post?

I think you can, but the mods can still see deleted posts.

Then again, I don’t think any of them follow any forum games.

1207
It’s not about deleted post; it’s about removing the “Hide your content” thing.
1208

You can do that, you just need to delete the parameters or something around your hidden text.

Edit: like this:
[
This text will be hidden
[
You don’t need to keep those two things under and above the text but I just showed it to emphasize how I did it

1209
I know how to do this; I was just wondering if it’d be legal for me to do so because my summaries contained swear words under a specific context.
1210

I think it is legal because none of the mods watch this forum game

1211

I lost my phone, so i couldnt post for a while. Anyway:

Action: Conquer the Taola village with minimum casualties on both ends
Action: Make it be known to other civilizations of the majesty of The Mongolian Empire
Action: Improve quality of life
Action: Improve armor to strike fear in enemies.
