I'll do a recount later today.

[Weirdsound]

Don't forget I PMed you stufff for this turn, and you missed some stuff sent by PM from last turn as well.

[alamoes]

I probably didn't, I just may have not added it into the update.  But I'll look anyways. 

[intelligentmoron]

Minor actions
Raise all levies and mobilize the regular army
begin production of as many flintlock rifles and weapons as possible
Other details included in pm

Major actions
Issue decree: All daimyos and other lordship are to relinquish the right to recruit an army and raise levies, henceforth all military power is to be in the control of the shogunate.

If war is inevitable, I shall force it before they are prepared.

[alamoes]

To make updates faster, I will only take write for those of which I deem minor actions.  For example, the modernization of Ethiopia is a major action.  The presidential election is a major action.  The declaration of war on another country is a minor action.  Troop movements are minor.  Passing is a minor action that will be done if the actions proposed are deemed as major or do not have an effect on the scope of the game.  Major actions will take place every four years since the beginning.  The next major action will take place in 1804.  Also, you shall now have the ability to research certain topics.  I will roll 1d6, and if you roll a six, you have gained the technology.  I suggest you re-post your actions. 


Russia - check
Ottomans - Check
Britain - check
Prussia - check
US - check
France - check
Spain - check
Ethiopia - check
Sweden - check
Austria - nope
Ethiopia - check
China - check
Japan - check


If you do not post a new research field, you will research whatever you were researching before. 

[GreatWyrmGold]

Research: Industry

[intelligentmoron]

Research: Modern Navy

[MonkeyHead]

Research: Materials science (i.e better metals for weapons).

Minor actions:

1) Continue recruiting and training soldiers, deplying them defensivley in the north west of Ottoman territory.

2) Continue building ships.

3) Deploy current fleet in Meditteranian waters off the coast of our north west territories.


More Major Actions:

1) Send agents out into our major cities - "recruit" metalworkers, chemists, engineers and suchlike to work on improving our artillery technologies. From these loyal subjects establish Imperial schools/univeristies devoted to applying our academic skills to how better kill infidels.

2) Begin propaganda campaign - our diplomats in neighbouring Islamic territorries are to being spreading malicious tales about the European Christian nations in order to begin rallying them to our cause - we will greatfully accept men, arms, animals, supplies, ships, anything...

Oh, and the deal struck via PM last turn.

[Weirdsound]

Research: Interchangeable Musket Parts

(I don't quite understand the new Major/Minor actions mechanic, so can I ask you to just figure out what goes where for this turn, and hopefully I can understand it after seeing an example? I think most of my proposed stuff is minor actions, but I'm not sure.)

[TCM]

Ethiopian Research: Improved Roads

Better roads = better trade, faster movement/supply, and all sorts of good stuff.

Turn Repost:

Ras Gugas's Decrees:

- Encircle our enemy's forces, and then charge from multiple fronts!

- Modernize more! If possible. (Keep working towards this goal as the Major action.)

- Learn some European technology, if possible also.

[Brood]

Research advanced weaponry ( Better cannons, guns, bayonette and so on. )

Everything else stays the same.

[Deny]

Research Minie ball

[alamoes]

The major/minor actions thing are to cull things like the event where the Russians would invite the Japanese over.  I'd rather have them say they would like to start a military alliance, not the trade of materials and people.  Research can also be your economic enhancement/reform/whatever.  For example, Ethiopia is improving the roads.  I'll have the update up soon. 

[alamoes]

You know what? I'm going to do the warfare by picture. 

I'll pm the battle map to you guys soon after I deal with the minor skirmishes. 
You will deploy your forces around the battle field.  I'll pm the two people fighting after I post the field of battle. 

[Gamerboy4life]

Research rifling/more accurate small-arms for the infantry.
