[LordBrassroast]

Pope: Recruit Catholics.
Govt. cult: Moar govt. cult. Try to go for senators.
Engineer cultists: Buy materials to build a military base in the clearing.
Hondrasaan: Recruit.

[fillipk]

Everyone, recruit from the government too, lets go for representatives.

[Aslandus]

Pope: Recruit Catholics.
Govt. cult: Moar govt. cult. Try to go for senators.
Engineer cultists: Buy materials to build a military base in the clearing.
Hondrasaan: Recruit.

recruit: [1] That didn't go very well, the Pope accidentally called you the antichrist, the government cultists called you a threat to national security, and then you vomited on a bunch of people.  (+25 inquisitors, +25 catholic inquisitors, Arizona and Michigan against you)
build: [5] They build a finely made fortress out of concrete and rebar. There is some left over as well. (acquired rebar, acquired concrete, built sturdy fortress base)

Everyone, recruit from the government too, lets go for representatives.

[2] You might want to get into the government, but the government doesn't want you.

Inquisitors: fix the death rays so they don't kill you
[6] Yeah! Now they're even more lethal! Wait... (Death rays now cause double casualties on both sides)
Humanity: chase away inquisitors
[6] They succeed, but even more people get tangled up with them. (+150 inquisitors, inquisitors deactivated)

[Whisperling]

Archon, directed from another world by leader & disaster manager 1: Hangovers are basically a nasty case of dehydration, right? Get some water into your system.
1 cultist: Keep working on that ritual to send stuff to me. I'd love it if you could expend some effort this time around.
2 hecklers: Locate a pitual of our own. Not at all reliable, but if it doesn't require any reagents, I'll take it.
2 heklers: Follow in the footsteps of that one guy who died and become espers. Might want to skip the dying bit, though.
2 cultists: Find a ritual to give cultists common sense. I await your results with bated breath.

Drink: [5] Despite the fact that you have not been summoned yet you decide to amend the hangover. You manage to drink enough water to offset the egregious amount of alcohol burning in your veins. (-3 turns of hangover)
Research with effort: [4] They find a ritual to send stuff. They die from overwork. (Discover ritual of sending, -1 cultist) ((because I'm getting annoyed at the 1 cultist researching))
Find pitual: [3] They discover a pit. Not magic, just a pit. (found pit)
Become esper: [5] They discover the secrets of extra sensory perception. Hopefully it'll be less lethal to them than the last one. They even leave behind their heckling ways. (hecklers become espers)
Research: [5] They discover the way to not be idiots. They even tell you about it instead of throwing it into the garbage. You suspect it's not going to change much in the long run. (discovered ritual of sense)

[Aslandus]

Mooney: Find more drink

[fillipk]

Everyone, recruit the wealthy inquisitors, secretly of course

[DAPARROT]

Vol-Kriit: negotiate with Val'Krete, promise him an equal share of the planet
150 mad cultists: lure handyman into the summoning circle and perform the ritual in reverse
150 bored cultists+145 cultists: recruit
200 cultists: research something that lets people see invisible things

[crazyabe]

Zombies: gather dragon's blood.
Hillbillys: Make Moonshine.
Priests: keep on preaching.
everyone_else: Build a Green house out back.
I: recruit homeless people.

[FallacyofUrist]

Everybody but Quarken: go to the dragons, ask for their help for healing Quarken.
Quarken: don't die?

[Aslandus]

Everyone, recruit the wealthy inquisitors, secretly of course

And the award for most frequent kicker of hornet nests goes to...
[6] They easily convince the wealthy inquisitors that investing in you is better than investing against you. They also get a bunch of the other guys. Unfortunately, the rest of the inquisitors know where you are, and are coming for you again... (25 wealthy inquisitors stolen, 550 eco inquisitors recruited, inquisitors activated)
Consume trash: [3] You want garbage snacks and there aren't that many wealthy inquisitors, so you just grab a snack instead. The filth in the area clears up your head. (Hangover gone, base slightly cleaner)

Humanity: Instead of wasting a turn stopping the inquisitors again, improve BOF's base
[1] They bulldoze part of the town in preparation for the improvements, but forget to add anything to replace it. (1/2 of neighborhood base destroyed)

Vol-Kriit: negotiate with Val'Krete, promise him an equal share of the planet
150 mad cultists: lure handyman into the summoning circle and perform the ritual in reverse
150 bored cultists+145 cultists: recruit
200 cultists: research something that lets people see invisible things

Technically you could just start ordering these guys around without negotiations, but I'll assume you just like RPing for now...
Negotiate: [5] You successfully get Val'Krete to agree to a 50-50 division of the Earth's resources when you win. He tells you what's been happening on your homeworld since you were banished all those eons ago, and offers you a new ritual to seal the deal in exchange for access to your resources and following. It allows you to absorb a horror's power into an orb. (discovered Orb creation ritual [consumes crystal orb and horror corpse])
Desummon: [6] That wouldn't have actually worked at all, but in their clumsy etching they miraculously created the banishing ritual. If only they had gotten clear in time. (-150 mad cultists, Handyman is BANISHED)
recruit: [5] They get more people to join your righteous cause! (+390 cultists)
research: [1] In trying to learn about vision, they temporarily blind themselves. It wasn't a great plan, to be honest, but at least they'll regain their vision in 2 turns. (200 cultists now blinded for [2] turns)

Zombies: gather dragon's blood.
Hillbillys: Make Moonshine.
Priests: keep on preaching.
everyone_else: Build a Green house out back.
I: recruit homeless people.

Gather: [3] They gather some dragonblood, but not enough for real use. (partially gathered dragon blood)
Moonshine: [5] They brew a plentiful supply of moonshine, enough for everyone if they are willing to drink it. (acquired plentiful moonshine)
Preach: [6] They preach of the horrors of the night and why everyone should support the undead revolution and the stability it brings. People hear about half of it. (PR down for everyone)
Build greenhouse: [5] They build a large greenhouse with irrigation and a cooling system built in. (grand greenhouse built)
Recruit: [6] You get some homeless folks to join you, though some troublemakers think you're going to be fun to pick on. (+75 homeless people, +25 homeless inquisitors)

Everybody but Quarken: go to the dragons, ask for their help for healing Quarken.
Quarken: don't die?

Dragons: [6] Your cultists, in desperation, ask the dragons for help. They know one ritual which might save you if it could be done in time, the ritual of preservation. It turns a person or horror into a mummified version of themselves, returning them to full health but with a very basic statline which rounds out 2 points below their default, effectively making them a subhorror. The dragons are also very hungry. (discovered ritual of preservation [req salt], -50 cultists)
Save yourself: [2] You try, beg and plead with death to let you survive, but ultimately give up. You are taken to the afterlife where all your old family and friends are waiting, who you haven't seen since they were consumed by the golden vines so long ago. (Quarken is dead)

Quacken: Blow up Quarken's corpse to pile it on
[1] Quacken explodes. (Quacken is DEAD)

[Aslandus]

Running a little late on ending the turn, so I'll try to get it done when I get out of class in about 4 hours...

[LordBrassroast]

Hondrasaan: Rest and get some water. Un-hangover yourself.
Engineer cultists: Build living quarters in the base
Pope: Accept the wayward heretics back into your loving embrace (de-inquisition the Catholics)
Govt.: Start a smear campaign against the governors of Arizona and Michigan. Try to get them impeached.


((sorry I'm late))

((sorry I'm late))

Rest: [5] You lie down, absorb some water, and recover from you hangover. In a moment of lucidity you remember an old skill you haven't used in years, which enables you to materialize in any sufficiently dark shadow. (Learned shadow teleport, removed hangover)
Living quarters: [6] They build so many residential areas they'll likely never need to build more. Naturally, some... "guests" have moved into some of the extra rooms. (Tons of residence areas built, some infested with beasts)
Remove inquisitors: [3] The Pope attempts to bring the correct his mistake and calm the catholics, but only a few of them are watching. What's more, he recommended they bring gift baskets to apologize and the inquisitors now know where you're hiding. (-15 catholic inquisitors, inquisitors activated)
Smear campaign: [5] It appears those governors have quite a lot of skeletons hidden in their closets and all you had to do is open the door. They're now serving life sentences and their replacements are a bit less hostile toward you. (Hostile governors removed)

[Whisperling]

Archon, with life advice from disaster averter, leader, and war leader (hey, it is an attack) 1: Terraform Mooney into a pit full of lava. And his rocket fuel. Got to wonder what happens when that catches fire alongside the most annoying horror on Earth.

Warband, led from afar by leader, disaster averter, and war leader 2: Finish off Quarken's cult.

3 hecklers: Partake in the ritual of sense and realize leaders are just trying to help you survive.

2 cultists: Become necromancers via the necronomicon.

Beldroth: Put our spearmints in a few bottles with your slobber. Those are significantly more useful as poison.
