As someone who never visits RTD area, I am curious. Doesn't this belong in it? Thanks for clarification.

It would be half-RTD, at best I think?

I don't use d6 all the time (and sometimes the rolls are contracted into smaller range of outcomes) and some options don't even necessite a dice roll at all.

Also, tied vote, again :I

[ZBridges]

Changed my vote.

You send a letter in which you ask him to release your soldiers and return them to Luathbas at once.

846 AD, Late Winter

You receive news from governor of Augas; the soldiers who assisted the Damdamians against the orcs have returned. He have decided to accomodate for them in Augas both to keep them away from plagued lands and to boost the security of the province at least a tiny bit. Also, the Parsian raids into Augas have ceased, for now.

Plague continues to reign over your country, killing people everywhere but in the east. A messenger from the north have brought terrible news; naught a Hurthling has been seen alive in past week, and some fear the little people have been destroyed.

846 AD, Later that evening...

You receive news from the manor's master of servants: the messenger who brought the news on Hurthlings is down with a fever.

A) Oh no, the Plague is here! Evacuate further east (to Augas) immediately!!
B) Let's not make rushed decisions... but be ready to flee if his fever develops into something worse.

[Ghazkull]

That is your just desserts for abandoning the Throne. Nothing good ever came of running away in such cases.

[ZBridges]

Maybe.  A.

You order everyone to calm down and healers to keep their eyes open.

Turns out he only exhausted himself a little bit.

846 AD, End of the Year

The advisor visits you in your tiny office, with his hands empty.

"Where are your scrolls?" The advisor sighs at the question.

"Apologies, my liege, but with the state in which our Kingdom is currently, I wasn't able to even start on updating them this year."

847 AD, Spring

You receive news that most of the country, depleted as it is, is not suffering from the Plague. Only few small areas in north and south are suffering, and the Plague itself seems to have moved westwards across the border, towards the Kiwi Empire and its numerous but small enemies.

Governors of the cities in the central region report that banditry is on the rise. They ask for the Crown to provide soldiers to strengthen the road patrols, decimated during the worst of the Plague's outbreak. As for the news of Plague...

A) Return to the capital at once, lest our Kingdom starts to collapse on itself in the aftermath of the Plague.
B) Remain in the eastern lands for few more months, just in case those few remaining spots flare up with new victims.

As for the bandits...

A) Do nothing.
B) Order troops from Augas to march west and strengthen the central lands.
C) Send your own bodyguard detail of a hundred to become road guards.

//No split votes, per usual.

[Tiruin]

OK contingency plan worked. We live \o/
A, B
Pretty straightforward choice. Now I do wish we can investigate these plagues.

You order the officials to return with you to the capital; along with you, the victorious men from Lametania will finally come home as well.

A day away from the palace, you were accosted by some bandits; fortunately, the bodyguard was more than up to the task.

847 AD, Mid-Spring

The Plague flares up with intensity in the southern parts of Luathbas; few hundred more fall victim to it.

847 AD, Late Spring

5

As it stands now, there are only few villages affected in the kingdom, most of them in the south.

Scouts report that the Plague have reared its ugly head in the west for good; now it is the enigmatic Kiwis and their neighbours suffering.

Few days later, the advisor arrives with Scrolls of Kingdom Status. "I have managed to update them properly, sire. I'm not sure if that's a good thing, though..."

Happiness: 2
Population: 3
Economy: 5
Army: 1

The situation is more than dire at this point. The amount of your subjects was more than halved during the plague! And your army - where is your army!

"Sire, we cannot leave this as it is. The people's hearts are ridden with doubt and despair, and our borders are protected by fortresses which halls and corridors are empty of all but wind and dust. The revenues from the gold mining and Augasian trade routes at least have kept Treasury moderately intact. We should use that to our advantage at once, my liege."

A) "Yes, let's throw some festivals for the peasants so that they can cheer up after the dreaded disaster that befell our country."
B) "And we shall! Hire mercenaries from unaffected lands, if any, and we shall also host festivals to cheer people up!"
C) "Army is our greatest concern! Order recruitment of mercenaries around the Kingdom."
