Sorry, I am putting up a turn now, the RP is a bit sparse but at least it is up.

Edit: do I have to have the sage spend the turn in the hall of learning to get his +25%?

If yes than he does that
If no he helps make the canoes.

[Neyvn]

Have we PMed Beans???

[Shades]

3 out of 6 players have posted before the desired deadline. The possibility exists in the future for me to take the lack of posting personally.

It's more that we are in endless discussions about what to post than the lack of post being something you should take personally.

[Nirur Torir]

Have we PMed Beans???

He hasn't logged in, and I didn't see him making any real attempt at getting a second. This is what seconds are for.

I'll aim for a turn today, even if Cheddarius and Redwarrior haven't finished their initializations.

[inteuniso]

So, is there no one interested in being a second?

[Cheddarius]

We are interested (Red and I). However we are still working out the specifics.

[RedWarrior0]

More like "I'm trying to get enough time to work on it"

[Neyvn]

Come on you two...
I want to start raiding the Elven Village to the East of Warcamp Guta...
Or maybe I will next turn...

Question. Am I able to send out a scout to find out what the sitch over at that Elven Village is like, plus Where is my map of the known world I have explored???

[Nirur Torir]

The only scouting action you may preform against the elves is with military forces ordered to scout. Them being elves, and your race looking not-forest-friendly, your forces would likely be attacked without a lucky roll.

[RedWarrior0]

You can get on with the turn; I'll post the turn into the game thread (Cheddarius already has a post in there) and I'll copy and paste the racial history we have right now. Physical descriptions will take a bit longer unless Ched feels inclined to type that up, as I have minimal free time during the week.

Edit: Application in, mostly complete
Note that this is neither mine nor Cheddarius's, it is a collaborative effort and neither of us is the primary or second.

Civilization: Apocrita
City:
Race: Apocritans (to be described later)
Theme: Truth Seekers with Caste System
Description: Pending

History:
During the Age of Glory, when the power and knowledge of mortals was at its greatest peak and magics that have power like that of a god, one ability alone was lacked, with which the line between the gods and highest mages would be kept intact solely by blood. In their search of a way to create and use this power, a group of the most powerful magic wielders came together secretly. In their secluded chamber, these seven worked for fifteen years on a task others claimed was impossible. They did this so that, with all ways of power open to them, they would know Truth. After their fifteen years, the Apocrita Seven had devised a spell to achieve what was thought to be exclusively for gods: they created true Life. With this open to them, they created several kinds of creatures before the magic was forbidden and thrown to the center of the world. All of the creatures forged with the magic were believed to be destroyed...

The Apocrita Seven, in the years after they achieved the epitome of all magic, created one creature which particularly was important to them. They saw how the ants work hard and efficiently, and they twisted that with their own ideals and reasoning. They created a creature whose motive was to find Truth. This creature multiplied and they developed a society like ants, though it had some if the individualism of the Seven's ideals. This species became associated with the term "Apocrita" and adopted it. The Seven had made a mistake, however. In the zeal for Truth, they gave the Apocrita everything. War was waged, the Seven killed, and all of the Apocrita exterminated. One egg, that of a Mother, survived, and the creature within developed over hundreds of years.

I'm writing up the turn now. I might even be able to motivate myself to make the map when I'm done.

Criptfeind, making up technologies is encouraged, (and will nearly be required once you've run out of listed technologies) as those listed are mostly just basic technologies to get people started. However, mapmaking isn't very useful, as I already plan to send maps out. (Really!)

Edit: Congratulations, Criptfeind. You are the first empire to roll a natural {1} on your D100 event roll.

[Criptfeind]

Yay...

What would it take to find out if there is gold (or iron or copper or anything) in them their mountains

[Luke_Prowler]

You forgot to remove 3 wood from my stockpile. Also, am I only allowed to train 1 unit a turn?

[RedWarrior0]

Well, I made a typo. Meant to be 2 wood and the described tiles worked.

[Nirur Torir]

I did not see the point, as that 3 extra food would have been wasted. I thought it was an error on your part.

Fixed, and yes. Military Schools allow a second unit, but require a general.

Luck while working them, a quarry, or a mine. It's also possible to specifically order a labor unit to prospect a square, but that's just two more luck rolls.
