Are we allowed to look at the other player's statuses per turn?

Careful adwarf, you don't want to be too nice to your serfs, they might start getting uppity thoughts.

i ask myself however how you will do this as you cant build a farm on land that is already farmed...

yes Taricus if you wish you can look at other peoples status...on another note i jsut realized that half of the starting information i brought in on the first page is somewhat faulty sorry for the inconvenience i must have fallen asleep halfway through writing that stuff....anywway taricus your stuff is ready...sorry but the Dice God hates you...will now begin with Triumvirate...

Did you think your people just stand there hitting the ground with sticks all day?

Also, looking at your stuff, I have to wonder what the heck you are talking about, you have way more food then you need.

It seems farms are pretty much automatically made by any population units that are not doing other things, thus manually making farms most likely wont help anyway because, surprise surprise, there is not going to be anyone to work them.

Oh wait, I just read your turn.

You realize that fortresses are only to be flooded with the commoners during sieges right? The point of a siege is to starve and plague out the hiding enemy.

You just started to siege yourself. I don't even know what to say to that.



On another note to the GM, it seems that I am running a despotic monarchy, although that is what I want on the end of course I don't see how I can administer such large tracks of land, would it be preferable to appoint some lords and get my feudalism on? Hopefully that would increase the percentage of my population I can have as a standing army and increase the defensiveness of my lands. Of course doing so would also raise a host of issues of loyalty and most likely decrease my income. At least that what would happen on earth.

Basically I am asking what will happen in game turns if I change to a feudal monarchy?



Adwarf, the short answer to all your issues is that you just tried to cram five million people into at most a few square miles.

Ghazkull Said they would starve. I will just use the money to fertilize it as best I can, and then make some farms.

You are lucky Ghazkull did not have most of your people slaughtered.

Edit: To put that in prospective, put out your arms as far as they can go, in the least dense area of where you shoved your people you would have just smacked two of them.

Edit 2: Another way of putting it in prospective is that, since you are working with almost dark age tech, each present is going to need 2-3 thousand times more space.

Like you would do if you were under siege.

No wait, scratch that, you would only bring in the closest .05 of a unit at the most if you were under siege.

In reality it would be more like .005 of a unit.

You know the answer to food problems...recycling tanks..

It is every citizen's final duty to go into the tanks, and become one with all of the people. :)

Yes, tanks would help quite a bit. But he does not have those tanks, too bad, if he does not stop this ether his house or millions of his serfs are going to die next turn, that's quite a lot of food.
