Errm, can I get my conquest noted on that map too please?

Me as well? I conquered 25 territories to the SouthEast. I believe I may expand a bit more too.

And I will get to parlaying with your emissary Fing. I put this STGOD on the backburner a bit but now I should get a bit more done.

Here's Ireland, and my own expansion to the Southward.

Gurren-Britannia's conquests so far, roughly:

Fucking hell, just make the fucking map in a gif.*

That being said, I'll have a consolidated map soon.

before 5 EST.

*Ignore the rant.

Pogoria conquered some territorry to the northeast. We'll be doing much, much more in a short while

Acquisitions not added to this version; PeZook's
Dark Hellion's
Akhlut's

And possibly some I truly missed.

Goals for the next installment; clean up the mess Zor left.
add the currently vague territories of Pezook, Dark Hellion and Akhult.

Karmic, Great work.

Be careful, on your way south.

I have some plans for the region, but that's for the next turn.

The greener shade of blue is my expansions.

Trying to gun for the Baltic so you can try to build a fleet of primitive ocean-going craft to try to compete with the mighty cannon armed warships defended by Ursiod Marines of the Red Imperial Navy based out of Mikhailsgrad, are you PeZook?

EDIT-Shady, is your Black Empire of Demons, Vampires, Puppy dog kicking and Grimdark planning on building a Navy? you do have a good streach of coastline you know.

Zor, I have two words for your navy: Dragon carriers. Cannons are all well and good, but magic ballistae are close and air power is better.

We have airpower as well you know, as well as Skycleaner and Ursiod Guns (which are nothing that notworthy mechanically, just appropriately upscaled flintlock rifles made for grizzly bears).

We can set your boats on fire with magic, you know.

*rolls up caravan* "Greek fire for sale! In all packages, forms, from cannon balls, to trebuchet projectiles!

We'll take ten!

The gunsmith I loaned you should be able to procure the necessary materials.

You missed Crete and Cyprus, both of which are Egyptian now.

I think I might start irrigating the Sahara with raw magic, too. No need for armed conquest there - just watch out for the giant sandworms!

It's a question of scale more than anything else. You've got perhaps threescore airships, while I have i and a half thousand dragons at my command.

Siegetank - If you're considering making sandworms, be sure to check for fanatical desert nomads first. We all know how that turns out in the end.

I almost have a profile and order of battle ready. I think I should have one in time to be able to join at the beginning of the next Game Year (turn/phase/whatever). I have a question though: Do you get the same revenue from captured provinces as you do from your core provinces? And if so do you at least have to expend some forces garrisoning them or something?

This is because firstly I don't think it's fair that you should be able to double your resources with a few evocative paragraphs about how you crushed the barbarians (or brought them into the Light of Civilisation), and second because I'd like to know how far ahead of me everyone else will be.

My ships don't just have big flak guns, they carry dragons as well. All in all, my air force is worth 6,500 points. Plenty of firepower to spare.

Well, congratulations then. We can have a dragon party.

And Zor can't come.

I plan to have more dragons, but in due time really.

How very Un-Byzantine of you Fingolfin, giving the secret of Greek Fire to others.

However the Red Tsardom's alchemists have come with our own incendiary concoctions which our factories can make in sufficient quantities for the military's needs (most notably in Kirov Airship bombs).

To be honest, with the advent of gunpowder and more accurate ranged weapons, Greek Fire is not as useful as before. Not to mention, the Arabs and the Europeans had their own versions, which may or may not be as good.

But... I could always remove one of the more vital ingredients and replace it with an inferior one.

Admittedly, this is the aspect of the game I mentioned that might need work. Dark Hellion did mention a mechanism where it will take time for territories to be assimilated, but these are unusual circumstances. In reality, it will take a generation for the new lands to be populated, and that would be... 20 turns?

However, I guess it is possible that you could get x amount of territories for starting late.
