But yeah i think we need to get going with year two now ish, it's been how long since the start of the game real time?

I dunno, but turn 1 has lasted over a month. I am willing to go elastic time just to be realistic, but yes.

Yes. Let's start the next turn.

I thought it allready begun, but yes lets do it.

Can someone tell me what the point-per-province acquisition rate per year was again?

We have not finalised the system, but Fingolfin's proposal works fine with me...

1-Garison Each Conquered territory with 200 Soldiers
2-Pay 200 points at the end of the First year of occupation, or 100 at the end of the Second year

Zor

Yes, that's all very fine and dandy, but what do I get in return? I need to know how many points my conquered territories (and the territories I originally controlled) have netted me in raw points thusfar. I should be able to do some pretty interesting things with two years worth of bottled-up mana (no expansion of the army thusfar, y'see).

Also, i am assuming that unused points from one turn simply stay with you until spent. Is this the case?

Zor

Siegetank: You get 200 points for every one of your original provinces. that's 40 provincesx200=8000 points minus your army cost/5 in maintenance. Your newly conquered provinces dont net you anything till you've garrisoned them with 200 points of troops for five years or pumped 200 points of raw production into them. I'm using option A cause i find that slightly more plausible though you're welcome to bribe people into loving you.

Zor: Yes.

Alright, let's see - that means 4,826 points left to spend at my discretion from the first turn. I conquered about a dozen territories so far, so if I spend 2,400 of those points on bribes those become profitable the next year. Which in turn means that I ought to net 10,400 in resources, minus 3,174 upkeep, plus the remaining 2,426 points means 9,652 points to spend next year. Is that correct or am I missing something?

I'll probably garrison my territories with 200 points of men up to 3 years, while pumping money into the provinces such that I can get to use some of them in the 2nd and 3rd year. Like I will definitely pump 2000 points worth into 10 provinces, and then another 2000 next year.

Tsar Mikhail-I has arrived in Crimea, other people who are comming please don't keep him waiting.

Zor

The Tsar's been greeted. After the discussion, he can be roomed in style, but you'll have to get the other dudes in town before the grand entrance.

Question: Do we count named Characters as costing us Upkeep points per turn?

I thought no.

Ok, so shall I then.

edit: OOB updated for the new turn.

I've been kinda busy so I haven't had time to get things done. I'll write up the Dark Lords arrival to Crimea now and try and make the necessary end turn business taken care of by tonight.

Thank the Chaos Gods, we have edit back.

Lists - Because I haven't been massively wrong is a while.

Red Czordom

'The West' Political Alliance

Holy Empire of Gurren-Britannia

Officially Unaligned States

edit: We need some better official superpower names than 'The East' and 'The West'.

I intend to rename my nation as the Eastern Roman Empire when I take over most of Anatolia and Greece, but that will come later.

The Red Tsardom lays down what it can offer the alliance.

Zor

Now, let's get the West's conference underway already.

Turn 2 Calculations (I hope I'm doing this right)

Income: 8000 Points
Maintenance:4595 Points

Remaining Points: 3405

Garrisoning:40 New Provinces x 200 Soldiers = 8000 Soldiers (Barbarian Warriors) (I will consider them profitable in two years, because fear will keep the humans in line. )

I say 40 new provinces(approximately) , because the provinces I have conquered are really small and therefore hard to count one the map.

Which means that I have 3405 Points left to spend this year. 405 points of that goes to alleviating the damage from the battle with Fingolfin(Training Replacement Troops).

And the 3000 Points is a surprise.

If I've made a mistake somewhere, please let me know.

P.S. Fingolfin, I consider Sedicea to be your territory now.

Shady, did you add any and all extra points from the previous turn?

Now that I know what my obscure arcane project is, you all can too. Jewel Magic For The Win!

There was like 25 Points, so I didn't bother.

Also: Damn Pogorians always late for meetings.

Sorry, but I prefer to be able to pay my heating bill. It's winter now.
