Noble Sons II- Price for Peace pre sign-up and discussion thread. [Archive]

As Noble Sons may take aaaageees to get going and away, I thought I would open a pre sign-up thread to get going as the current game system is no where near good...

Heres what I got so far (Inspiration came to me just then so heres the new version)

At the beginning you will get to chose the following army.

Land Based army

Pikemans:8
Swordmans: 8
Archers: 6
Knights:2

Steppe Army

Knights: 5
Horse Archers: 4
Archers: 6
Swordmans: 3

Defence based army

Archers: 6
Crossbow: 3
Longbow: 3
Pikemans: 4

Naval based army

Galley: 4
Swordsman: 6
Pikemans: 4

Most country will get the same ammount of income except the center countries will get extra. Income can be spent for deplomacy and buying armies. Also the previous victor, Beefdom (Yoyo if he wishes), random intruders Pizza kingdom (if he wants to play.. If not it goes to White_eyes) and Republic of YLC will get few additional men to start with.

While this is going to be mostly improvised like Battle Royale, type of forces you got, detailed battle description and hosts' (The God) mood can change the outcome of the battle as I cannot see how I can balance things out perfectly.

We will be using the map that Yoyoma made for us in the previous thread which I will upload in the next few min.

As you can see the game is really rusty. So I am open to any suggestion about how to run this game. I might check out the throne room later to see how they are doing it.

Enjoy your day in the gameroom gents. I'll see you soon... And try not to go too offtopic as the thread will be most likely terminated by one of our resident T-888s (the Mods)

Cheers :2thumbsup:

EDIT: More rules

Aim of this game is to eliminate the Vege eating kings although, the ultimate goal is to eliminate everyone else.

Voting in this game means declaration of war, although even if you get the most votes it doesn't necessary make you dead.

Theres alot of diplomatic options like surrender, serve, Ask for a vassal and stuff which you can figure it out.

Oh and the letter rule is still alive. Just send me a pm asking to send it to another player if you want to make it anonymous or forge to look like someone else sent it to them

All hail King Yoyoma for his work!!

https://i387.photobucket.com/albums/oo312/mexico1910/noblesons/fullsizedmap.jpg

Behold.. Heres the map which is to be used for the game.

Heres the side plot of the game.

Many years passed by....

King Yoyoma was sitting in his terrace with his Amazonian lover... Enjoying the sunset. He sensed someone was approaching him from the back.

Immediately Yoyoma and the Amazonian pulled out their swords and tackled the intruder, placing their swords on its throat.

"Peace good king Yoyoma!" it said.

Yoyoma carefully took its hood off.. Ugly hag... Who seemed somewhat familiar.

"I hope you remember me King Yoyoma" said the oracle. "After all... I was the one who made you a king..."

"Silence you witch! I have no business with a fake oracle like you!" Shouted Yoyoma. who made a quick eye contact with the Amazonian, getting her ready to forcefully remove the oracles presence...

"I had a dream... King Yoyoma. A disturbing one too! This island of hope will be under attack... I saw black clouds approaching to this kingdom.. Evil clouds... Man with evil desire is about to get on the throne....umm...YEESH... TWO of them too!... Two evil man are..."

"Alright fake oracle. So who is these evil fellows? What do they want?"

"I don't know my sire... But what I saw is field full of dead soldiers... Dead cows.."
*Amazonian gasps
"Dead chickens.. Dead lambs... Dead fish.. all of them.... Then I saw.... Dancing cabbage and pumpkins!!"

"So how would you...umm.. interpret this dream fake oracle?"

"Someone vegetarian is about to rise on the throne.."

"Two of them yes?"

"Yeesh!! Two vegetarians are about to rise on the throne.. You must tell your son about it...Warn him... and prepare him and others for war.. For this island is doomed with a vegetarian kingdom ruling her!!"

.................................................................................................... ......................................

King Yoyoma Jr faced his fellow kings. Kings who rules other parts of the islands. Some friends and some hostile. And he asked.

"So who became king in the last 3 years? Besides me?"

*All the kings raised their hands.

"Oh bugger... This is not going to look good..."

Can the people of the island survive from the tyranny of the vegetarian kings? Or can the meat eating kings protect their rights to eat meat?

The ever lasting battle was once again... About to start...

So as you figured from the story, this will be a battle between meet eating kings vs those with the hidden agenda.

While eliminating the two vegetarian kingdoms will be their first goal for the "good" kings, like the previous game, the real goal is to be the dominent kingdoms of the Island.

Oh and I don't even need to explain what happens if vegetarian kingdom dominates yes?

Answer is doom. For every one on the island... Except those special ones who can bear it:beam:

Sure. Here it is
https://forums.totalwar.org/vb/showthread.php?t=108714

It was origianlly planned as mafia with Battle Royale theme of everyone playing for them selves and more betrayal and treachery. But I made a serious error which completely wrecked the system I originally planned and I raged and turned into a role playing mafia.

So In a sense, this is more of throne room RPG then mafia

1. The Aresea Confederacy - Sea Based Army
2. https://i404.photobucket.com/albums/pp130/aries777777/Areseasmall-1.jpg
3. First adapted to the sea, we live in the large merciless oceans of the West Of Noble Sons land for generations, we became the first to develop naval technology because of are advantageous position are keen wit and wisdom of our elder Fish, recently we have adapted to land and now field land based army and naval technology, are galley's are huge and are mounted upon small whales for easy maneuvering, speed & morale depleting when faced against a coward like enemy! We were always the smallest of nations previously, but with our holdings on what was desolate land we now field one of the largest kingdoms in the whole field of noble sons land!
4. We were growing are technology, breeding it perfectly, the production of a massive warship powered by 6 million cod had been finished, and mercenaries hired in case we were attacked, but luckily we never got deeply involved in the conflicts of other petty kingdoms, allowing us to expand undisturbed, however with all nearby holding now occupied by others violence may, for the first time be a realistic consideration.....
5. Adapting giant sharks and dolphins to hold a sword, or hold a pike and fight for our nations honor!

Galleys - Best navy out of all kingdoms, truly a force to be reckoned with
Swordsmen & Pikemen - Given to truly fearsome fish, but lack the diversity and numbers to match more established land based powers
Cavalry - Non existant & laughable, we have sharks instead! much more efficient....
Archery - We gather Small Tunas with the agility and speed to fire with great prowess, however there size means they can only hold small bows meaning while incredibly agile and accurate are archery isn't particularly powerful

The Royal Descendants of the House Schling, the most Holy Priests of the 28 Headed Cattle God, declare themselves to be independent of the corrupt Yoyoma's rule, and forms the Theocracy of the Shadowbull!

Speech by S. Lysimachus, the Most Holy High Priest of the 28 Headed Cattle God, Year 44 of King Yoyoma the Corrupt's reign.

1. The Holy Theocracy of the Shadowbull
2. https://i387.photobucket.com/albums/oo312/mexico1910/noblesons/bullflagsmall.jpg
3. In the Year 44, a minor pension issue between the King and the Most Holy Priest of the 28 Headed Cattle God turned into a bitter territorial dispute. Angered at his pension cut by 0.34 percent, S. Lysimachus declared the holdings of the Chruch of the 28 Headed Cattle God to be independent from the Kingdom of Beefdom. Luckily, the headstrong S. Lysimachus soon died due to an adverse allergic reaction to solid gold, and was succeeded by his less headstrong son Shlin II. Will he maintain the status quo? Will he aim for reunification? Will he seek the universal destruction of everything??? Nobody knows...

4. Back in the day of the First Age, the brave forefather of the House Schling died selflessly for a cause he didn't really understand... For his "sacrifice", his family is awarded the Priesthood of the 28 Headed Cattle God.

5. Between the First Age and the Second Age, much time were spent eating beefy, discussing the philosophy of eating beef, and generally complaining to the king about lack of funds. Later, they declared independence, and continues their whimsical lifestyle.

2The Grand Republic of Buranda

3 The Lands the republic settled in were populated by thousands of tribes, of different cultures, in a permanent state of war. however, the arrival of the first colonists changed all that. they were refugees from 'civilised' nations, forced from their homes. despite this, they were a clever, rich and advanced bunch. they carried sword and plate armour. the tribes had little. the republic founded the port city of Hallingon, now the capital. it was well developed, with modern designs, houses out of stone. they played the tribes against each other, assimilated the weak and allied with the strong. soon, by blood and deed, owns the entire peninsula. however, many tribes remained, in republican lands. they, in return for not fighting, given the infamous 'borderlands' lands on the borders, who could act a buffer against invasion. the republic now founded, it built new cities with wonder and science. the republic realised a opportunity for coin. the south of the peninsula, was a great bay, named the bay of carasi. it was potent for trade. they landed large expeditionary forces to the lands of the south, and took them over, much like they did on the peninsula. soon, they had conquered a large portion of land. merchants flourished, and the republic boomed. over, the new conquests were weak to surviving tribes, who had fled to other tribes, more powerful. the republic made new borderlands, and many tribes from the north went south, since there was a larger amount of land up for sale. the republic could have easily conquered much more, but political infighting and squabbling. To combat this, the position of lord chancellor was made, so that all men had a chance to become the grand ruler of Buranda

Thanks for the sign up so far! Thanks heaps :2thumbsup:

Heres how the battle works roughly

Land Based beats the Steppes
Steppes beats Defence
Defence beats Land

Navy Based beats no one although they have higher chance of Ninjaring lands.

Although the tactics you send to me can decide the outcome of the battle. But if its a front on, thats pretty much what will happen.

This is role play so its your choice.

But you would get your own Kingdom. You can claim it your land or vassal to someone. But obviously if you get the veggie eater role, then you would try and be the last one standing, although you can pretend to be the loyal servant of the kings.

The Horde of the Hungry Khan

https://i205.photobucket.com/albums/bb225/askthepizzaguy/HungryKhanateFlagSmall.jpg

1. The Horde of the Hungry Khan
2. Flag: See above.
3. The Hungry Khan once ruled all of Europa, a continent across the seas, and then became a fanatical follower of the Pizza Lord, and waged Jihad against the infidel, conquering three continents within the span of 12 years. The Hungry Khanate was defeated by the Sultan of Grog, and now his vast horde has been wandering the steppes ever since... growing more and more hungry.... eating everything that stood in their path.

4. During the time period of the Noble Sons I, the Hungry Khanate was at its peak, ruling the vast lands of another continent. Now they have come across a great vast plains separating the two continents, and have had nothing to eat for many months. In desperation, they have started to eat one another, and the armies of the Hungry Khan are now growing disloyal and undisciplined. They are seeking a new Lord to serve.

5. Since the common era began, the Hungry Hordes have found the lands of Beefdom have been left mostly unattended by the Great Yoyoma. Many cattle have vanished from the local farms, and many of the peasants have found their chicken, pigs, and lambs to be missing as well. Wheat fields have been picked clean, and tomatoes have been disappearing as well.

In the air, a strangely delicious smell is coming from the adjacent valley, where the Hungry Hordes are known to make camp. Their armies are vast, and they consider themselves neutral to everyone on this continent, so long as they are allowed to eat their strange foreign delicacy.... called a "pizza".

Army Composition: (For roleplaying purposes only)

1. Vast hordes of Heavy Cavalry, with armor forged from the hottest ovens, armed with lances, maces and swords with pizza-cutter tips.
2. Vast hordes of Crossbow and Longbow cavalry, with the finest bows ever constructed.
3. Spearmen, spearmen, spearmen, spearmen, spearmen, spearmen, and more spearmen.
4. A large mercenary fleet of Italian warships, left over from the Holy Jihad, whose crew have been murdered and eaten, and their ships commandeered by the Hungry Horde.
5. some dense clusters Catapults and Trebuchets.
6. No gunpowder.

Looks great Yoyoma :bow:

edit: Here we go, sorry for the lateness Beefy

1. Name of the kingdom/nation/group: The Twin Kingdoms of Lesser Reenk and Greater Roink
2. Flag: wip
3. History of the kingdom: The Twin Kingdoms of Lesser Reenk and Greater Roink is a recently emerged polity centered between the Reenk and Roink mountain ranges. Before the land was united, the people who lived in the region were semi pastoral folk just beginning the war against the evil plant kingdom. They chose the giver of Beef as both their spiritual guide. However, they also made this giver of Beef their natural enemy and the obvious dissonance led to tensions which would have a huge impact. One day, a man who called himself the Reenkmeister united the various mountain tribes and carved out a kingdom, and all other states had to pay attention to the emerged power. However, one day vegetarian ninjas who were confused with the exact nature of the giver of Beef killed the Reenkmeister's family and so he left his kingdom to go and gather money for kung-fu lessons. A distant relative of the Reenkmeister known as Reenkmaistro took charge of the fledgling state and this is his story...
4. What they were doing during the time period of Noble Sons I: Living in a disunitied state as mountain tribesmen.
5. What they were doing from post Noble Sons I up until now: This is the period of unification described in the history culminating in the vegetarian ninja assassination.

1. Order of the Sacred Kobe Beef

2. http://www.primetimemeats.co.nz/assets/images/products/KobeBeefStriploin.jpg

3. An Order created after rumours that other Kingdoms and peoples that were eating anything apart from Beef. With the sole purpose of spreading the glorious teachings of eating Beef, the Order would send Missionaries to foreign countries and kingdoms to preach and convert its population to eating Beef. Within Beefdom, the Order has an Inquisition that seeks out Heretics not eating Beef and purifies them with 'extreme' cleansing. The Order also has a specialist standing army which it mobilizes when needed.

4. Formed shortly after the crowning of King Yoyoma, the works of the Order was so effective and efficient that the King Himself bestowed Grandmaster Taka with two pieces of the Best Kobe Beef in the land and gave him a large area the size of a small kingdom to carry on the Order's work. The Order was officially renamed to the Order of the Sacred Kobe Beef after receiving the two pieces of Kobe Beef, which are preserved and kept within the secret chambers of the Inquisition Head Quarters.

5. After launching several successful Beef Crusades across the land, the Order of the Sacred Kobe Beef now has a fairly large control of nearby lands and some far away. The Order's famous 'Steak Grilling Flame Thrower', a secret weapon with a cow's head spewing fire and used only by the most trusted within the Order chosen by Grandmaster Taka, purged the heretics and won most of their battles. The Order was thought to be incorruptible, until very recently (last week in fact) it was discovered that one of the low ranked soldiers secretly ate vegetables with his beef. He was 'cleansed' as an example to the other members of the Order.

With the vegetarian uprising increasing at an alarming rate, the Order is starting to struggle with its teachings. Everyone is considered suspicious, even the Order itself. Purge the Heretic Veg-eaters!

If you need flags, theres some that Yoyoma made for us which you can use or you can always make it your self :bow:

Actually, if you were looking at the rule for Noble Sons I then don't worry.

Game had a epic fail then turned into a simple role playing game.

As long as nothing like "move my force to Eiffel tower then teleport into middle of Beefdom" happens thats fine. You just have to first, get rid of the vege eaters, then be the last one standing.

Though amazonians were not exactly fair :laugh4:

04-08-2009, 02:34

any further infomation with the mechanics?

I scrapped the idea of points at the beginning of the game.

When you get your pms, all the players will contact me with their army details/ compositions. Based on that and strategies, I will decide the outcome of the battle.

Voting will take place in the meeting which happens every 6 months (game time. Probebly every 2 days real life) In this game, votes doesn't really mean anything. Its more of a official declaration of war. Which ofcause you don't even have to follow.

Then you will send me a rough plan of what you want to do in the 6 months. Like advance your force in who evers land or send spies on who ever. You can even hire assasins or you can go kill others your self if you are confident that you will win. Detailed orders is a key. Just keep it realistic and you will get the results. Night time will take longer if theres a battle or something similer, as I will send updates on whats going on in the battle and you can flip your decision depending on whats happening.

The side aim for all the kings are to get rid of the veggie eaters. However, the ultimate aim is to be the sole dominator of the Island by either conquest or cunning diplimacy.

Options like vassal, surrender, suicide and any other realistic options are available. You can come up with the terms or effects of each actions when your negotiating.

Also, once you are dead for good... Even if you lost the war, its unlikely you'll die if you send me detailed order of running away and do maintain a good relationship with other kings, if you do die, I would like to hire you as a co-host as I lack some common sense and I tend to favor silly orders over good ones so I would appreciate second opinions on various actions.

Map will probebly be updated to Battle Royale/ Tainted evil style coordinate/grid map to make it more realistic and challenging. Which I will need to figure out how to from either Yoyo or taka. Or someone else who knows how to photo shop.

If there is further questions, please simply ask on this thread or send me a pm. Who ever has more information is likely to win :beam:

__________________________________________________________

I would break it up into provinces, like MTW or STW. I can do it for you, or you can do it in MS paint. It's easier in a program that creates layers, rather than actually having to draw right on the image. If you do want to grid it in photoshop, use the line tool, and hold down the shift key while you drag the line across the screen. This creates a straight line.

The Consulate of Yaks, Liquor and Cheese

https://i387.photobucket.com/albums/oo312/mexico1910/noblesons/consulflagsmall-1.jpg

The Consulate of Yaks, Liquor and Cheese was founded by the stunningly intelligent, devious, and ambitious Prince YLC of Beefdom. Having been exiled to the farthest shores of the continent, YLC quickly plotted revenge, to return with many mercenaries and citizen soldiers after having convinced many towns to join with him even when they shouldn't have or had no need, such was his wordcraft and charisma. He then created a network of spies to bring in the most information possible, and began trade routes to Beefdom. Beefdoms instability caused the trade routes to become threatened, and by clever manufacture, YLC had written into law that the Consulate must protect the trade routes by force. Using this as an excuse to "stabilize" the Kingdom of Beefdom, Prince YLC was able to garner the support of many awould be enemy, such was the mind and forethought of Prince YLC, who, in the name of the people, renounced his noble status and became one with the commoners, much to their rejoicing and furthering of his cause, such was the magnanimity of YLC.

So he allied with the killer White Eyes, knowing that since he was ruthless and already bloodied, White Eyes would only be too willing to help, for he had been blinded by his own greed for a throne that YLC no longer truly sought, such was the humility of YLC. And so it was thus that Prince YLC, through intrigue and manipulation, managed not only to turn the tables on his would be exilers, but met the love of his life, a beautiful assassin from a seaside village, named Sara. Many would ask about fair Sara, and how she had turned his heart towards good things, such is the tenderness of Consul Sara, and how YLC could associate, even love such a woman, but such was YLC's love and understanding. After YLC's most honorable death, for he made sure it was so, Consul Sara took over his duties, for she was most wise and capable, and began the forward progression in arms and technology, skyrocketing the Consulate far far ahead in terms of well being and position.

Consul Sara gave birth to twins, a boy and girl, who grew up amongst the most advanced technology and gained the best education available. The boy was named CLY, or Clay, and the girl was named LCY, or Lacy. Clay soon took over the vast and burgeoning technology industry, handling many of the new clockwork and steam products, both in design and construction, for Clay had forgiven Yoyoma of YLC's death, such was his compassion. But Lacy took the Consulship after her mother passed it down, and Lacy took up the ideals of her father, excelling in deception and war, such was her pride. Now she thinks silently of revenge as the Consulate begins to mobilize...

Army composition

Clockwork Infantry - No longer does the Consulate put it's citizens in harms way. Now, machines of steam and clockwork take to the battlefield. Slower and limited then a normal soldier, they are nearly numberless and easily repairable, making logistics simplicity itself.
Yak Lancers - Brave soldiers riding the trusty Yak, these Lancers wield both spear, sword, and pistol in the name of the Consulate, charging home with the lance or ramming home with the Yak itself.
Consul Marines - Using the longmusket and sabre, the Marines are the best and bravest of the Consulate. Trained in single combat and formation combat, Marines are highly adaptable soldiers.

Army Composition of the Theocracy of the Shadowbull ( Land Based army )

Swordsmen:

Beefy Zealots - Barely trained, barely able to wield weapons, barely wearing any armour, they are the core of the Theocratic Army. Though their military prowess left much to be desired, they have one advantage - there are a lot of them, and I mean A LOT!

Pikemen:

Shadowbull Warriors - Armed with a long long pike and shields of faith, they are the elite infantry of the Theocratic army.

Archers:

Temple Rangers - Armed with a longbow and a quiver full of Arrows of Faith, these elite rangers patrols the outlands of the Theocracy and forms the first line of defence against enemies.

Knights:

The Warrior Priests - With the declaration of independence from Beefydom, the Theocracy lost one of the most important parts of an army - the cavalry. To solve this problem, shlin II declared that alll household warriors, priests and servants must serve a mandatory service in the army. After many years, this small force has grown, and is now known across the known world as one of the most fanatical and well-trained knights across the known world.

I would like any landlocked country bordering Beefdom :bow:

Courteous Greetings, Noble Sons of the Realm.

The Hungry Khan has settled in the lands of the North, and our people are hungry and tired after their long journey to this place. Farming has never been our strength, but we have managed to create a fine delicacy from the many different food sources we have encountered on our journey, which we would like to share with you. Unfortunately the lands we have are not suitable for growing food at all. We seek to establish peaceful relations with the leaders of this land, in the hopes of generating a mutually beneficial trade arrangement. What we do have in our possession: Many fine war horses, both in the large variety for charging and the swift for skirmishing. We seem to possess a small runoff lake which is barely suitable for drinking from, due to the heavy metallic deposits contained within. Our people are hardy and they have traveled very far relying on their wits; we have many skilled craftsmen who can fashion strong bows and leather armor, and we've managed to build a vast network of oven forges. We have little in the way of resources, but we can make things using the raw materials of others, and we have surplus horse to trade, and some limited metal deposits of unknown value. For the moment, we have acquired some cattle and we are foraging for other sources of food, but our reserves are due to run out, and we cannot leave the island without food reserves. Our people are willing to trade for food, and other arrangements can be made.

May the many blessings and toppings of the Pizza Lord be upon you.

-Pepperono, Ambassador for the Hungry Khan

The Principality of Decapodia

https://i387.photobucket.com/albums/oo312/mexico1910/noblesons/Quintusshrimpsmall.jpg

The most ecclesiastical Principality of Decapod Crustaceania, was found by Grand Prince Quintus II, high priest of Decapodia. Grand Prince Quintus II was the son of Prince Quintus Julius Cicero, fifth son of King Beefy the great. After the war of the Beefdom succession and the ascendancy of Prince Yoyoma on the throne. Quintus II took his family and possessions away and migrated to the far corners of the world, founding the lands that his descents would rule for the following centuries. During the perilous trek, the Prince and his follows fed on the delicious shrimps and other crustaceans caught on the high seas. Quintus II was a very religious man and after finding apparent fulfilment, enlightenment and inner peace after eating the shrimps, founded the religion of Crustaceanism, and later became the first high priest of Crustaceanism and Grand Prince of Decopodia.

Centuries had past since the death of Grand Prince Quintus II. His descendents rule these lands, which gradually grew from a chain of small fishing villages to blistering metropolises of great temples and docks. Warehouses, banks and traders grew within the city walls. Merchants from Decapodia sailed as far as the other side of the world to trade prawns, lobsters and seashells for other luxurious goods. The Capital of Decapodia – Dendrobranchiata, although not as populous as some of the other cities in Beefdom, has been universally regarded as one of the most organised and prosperous city in all Beefland.

Geography of the Principality of Decapodia

https://i387.photobucket.com/albums/oo312/mexico1910/noblesons/map.jpg
The Principality of Decapodia consists of the 2 major island plus 1 minor island on the top right handside of the map, also under its control are some of the costal towns around the carangidae sea.

Government and leadership
Although a Principality. The government type is actually constitutional monarchy. Traditionally every Grand Prince of Decapdia also holds the honoured title of High Priest of Crustacenism, the official religious leader within the kingdom. The Grand Prince rules with the consent and guidance of both the Church and the agreement of the Nobility, with the Senate (consisting of the most influential family of nobles, bishops and merchants) helping to introduce taxes and social reforms, and ultimately in times of war, provides generals and troops for the Grand Prince.

Royal Family
The Royal family of Decapodia are all direct descendents of Prince Quintus Julius Cicero and Quintus II. Traditionally every first-born is made the ruler of the lands, no matter male or female. The current Grand Prince of Decapodia is Grand Prince Secundus Julius Cicero. The kingdom has not been at war with anyone else for centuries, and following the traditions and customs, Seundus is a preacher of religion and peace, and has received the Noble Beefy Peace Prize for decades in running. Under the astute rule of Secundus and the Senate, the Decapodian economy contuned to grow, and gradually the prolonged war against poverty is almost complete in total victory….

But are things about to change? Grand Prince Secundus suffers from type 2 diabetes, which prevents him from performing religious rituals such as the feed of the sweet and sour prawn meal and many others. Grand Prince Secundus’ health has been deteriorating for the past years and it has been widely speculated throughout the realm that the Middle-aged Prince would die soon, so that leaves with the big question of….

Succession. Secundus has 4 children; Princess Una VIII, Prince Quintus XIV, Prince Septimus VII and Princess Nova IX. Traditionally the first born would inherit the throne, however due to recent events the Grand Prince has some dilemmas…..

The Current financial recessions has hit the whole of Beefdom hard, even the elites of Decapodia are feeling the effects. History has taught us that Depression helped to cause WWII, and if history has taught us anything else, that would be history always repeat itself, and if it indeed repeats it self, we could probably expect the same thing as previously stated – itself. The growing recessions has caused various rival kingdoms of grow more towards militarism, the rival kings and dukes aren’t very peaceful. Storming clouds gather over Beefdom as mistrust and rivalry threaten to flood the world in a tide of total war. Ambition and greedy from rival kings and princes must be checked, and the king must think of a strong enough leader from one of his children….

Army Composition

Geographically Decapodia is an amphibious country with islands and coasts. Naturally its main strength lies within its capabilities of navy, and Decapodian navy is universally recognized as the best in all of Beefdom. The Malacostraca armada is the most feared navy in all the lands, with powerful ships such as the Amphipoda Galleass and Isopoda Carracks, the naval powers of Decapodia is unchallenged. However their land army is quite different.

Cavalry – almost completely lacking in heavy cavalry, save for a few units of lightly armored horseboys consisting of untrained teenagers. It’s usefulness only extends for chasing down routers and scaring little misbehaving children.
Cavalry wise Decapodia must rely on mercenaries from the steppes, since native cavalry is obviously very useless.

Swordsmen – Mediocre at best, the Decapodian swordsmen never exceeds their expectations, and at times often performs lower than it. Although able to afford good equipments, these troops fights with less efficiency and brutality than most of the countries around the middle and mountainous reign of the map.

Pikemen – Well disciplined and very well armoured. The Decapodia Pikemen are trained to counter enemy cavalry in perfect fashion. Their long pikes are set to receive enemy charges and use the charge force against their foes.

Archers– Decapodia boasts the best archers in the lands. Very well trained and excellently funded, these troops are the best killers in distance. Annual archery competitions are held to find the best archers and the most talented ones are drafted into the Prince’s personal retinues. The professional archer corp. of Decapodia is very formidable in combat. While the Prince’s retinue are comparable to legendary Elvis shots in Lord of the Rings, and often snatches victory in the face of defeat with one word – “Fire!”

The Kingdom Of The Swisslanders And Mongols!

https://i442.photobucket.com/albums/qq147/Warman8/SwisslandMongol88.jpg

The Kingdom Of Swissland was made over 5 years ago...... It was started by the Gloruius King Warman88! He led his Swissland Armies thoughout the Total War Multiplayer lands, taking over the lands by force. His Empire joined with some Mongols, who needed a new home. Together, KingWarman88's Empire, The Swissland Empire is growing. It destroyed some of the Top Nations in MP and been expanding, even with the King's recent health problems.

During The Time Period Of the "Nolbe Sons I" era, The Kingdom was not in the region, as the King was busy fighting his MP foes. Afterwards, they begain to head towards a region called "The Game Room" in the .Org Kingdom. Swissland/Mongol forces are now swarming towards this postion, after a attempt on the King's life by a man named White_Eyes :D and King Jan III Sobieski.

Swiss Aroumded Pikeman: The Kingdom Of Swissland has excellet Pikemen. They are able to stop any good fighting cavarly without any problems, and even some foot men. They are known to fight to the death and take no prisoners!

Swiss Men-At-Arms/Swiss Samurai: These Swordmen are heavily armouded. When the Pikemen need support, they are ready to support them in battle and help them beat back the enemy and overwhelm them. There are also Swiss Samurai in the army. Few in numbers, however, they are very fierce warriors also.

Archers: Their foot archers are excellet, coming from the dismounted Mongols that they recieved. They are not the best, since they prefer horseback archery, however, they are useful anyhow.

Knights: The Swisslanders have no good cavarly but bodyguards units, which the King doesn't use since he fights on foot. The Mongols provide their Heavy Cavarly. They are a fiece cavarly force, able to break the back of any enemy army, if given the chance!

Courteous Greetings, Noble Sons of the Realm.

The Hungry Khan is interested in trade with the lands in the south, as it appears that this is where the most fertile farmland is. Would any of the Southern powers be interested in a trade agreement? It seems any trade the Hungry Horde has with the south must flow through the neutral lands of Beefydom in the central mountain range, or through Swissland. We might also be interested in contacting Aresea about the possible use of his Oceans as a shipping route. Any third party who assists us will gain a percentage of the trade from both sides, so it will be most profitable to assist the Hungry Khan in getting food for his people.

We also wish to affirm our peaceful intentions to the lands to our east and west, and would be interested in trade if you have resources we can use. Be aware that though we are low on resources and weary of travel, we are fully rested and fed now, and we will brook no aggression. Any trespassers upon the lands of the Hungry Horde will be brought to justice. We will entertain offers of military alliance, however we have found military alliances in the past to be most detrimental to our security, rather than a supplement, and trust is earned, not given away.

May the many blessings and toppings of the Pizza Lord be upon you.

-Pepperono, Ambassador for the Hungry Khan

Hungary Khan-

We would be honoured to have a trade argeement with your nation. The Kingdom Of Swisslanders And Mongols would allow the trade to come though our lands to other lands also. So it would benefit both of our nations.

May God And Mr.Peanut bless you!

The Hungry Khan seeks the following resources:

1. Wheat
2. Tomato
3. Non-cattle livestock

Any assistance in this matter would be appreciated. Diplomatic contact is a must for peaceful relations with the Horde; no exchange of ambassadors will be seen as a sign of mistrust or aggression.

It is the old map... just with the tenting at 100 % opacity.

i assume this is one of my units.

If you'd like. I was playing around with your flag, and I stuck it on the front of some samurai armor.

Hehe... the Theocracy that seceded from Beefydom is bigger than Beefdom

Hmm, well if you're unhappy with the size of your land mass, I can go in and reedit it before we start.

Also, if you count the amount of squares with land in them, you'll see most factions have almost the same. The two Island have more squares, but lass land, I have the most land squares, YLC has the second highest, as he came in second during the last game (and had a faction member who survived), and Beefy's kingdom has less than other land factions.

Updated my faction description!

1. The Aresea Confederacy - Sea Based Army
2. https://i404.photobucket.com/albums/pp130/aries777777/Areseasmall-1.jpg
3. First adapted to the sea, we live in the large merciless oceans of the West Of Noble Sons land for generations, we became the first to develop naval technology because of are advantageous position are keen wit and wisdom of our elder Fish, recently we have adapted to land and now field land based army and naval technology, are galley's are huge and are mounted upon small whales for easy maneuvering, speed & morale depleting when faced against a coward like enemy! We were always the smallest of nations previously, but with our holdings on what was desolate land we now field one of the largest kingdoms in the whole field of noble sons land!
4. We were growing are technology, breeding it perfectly, the production of a massive warship powered by 6 million cod had been finished, and mercenaries hired in case we were attacked, but luckily we never got deeply involved in the conflicts of other petty kingdoms, allowing us to expand undisturbed, however with all nearby holding now occupied by others violence may, for the first time be a realistic consideration.....
5. Adapting giant sharks and dolphins to hold a sword, or hold a pike and fight for our nations honor!

Galleys - Best navy out of all kingdoms, truly a force to be reckoned with
Swordsmen & Pikemen - Given to truly fearsome fish, but lack the diversity and numbers to match more established land based powers
Cavalry - Non existant & laughable, we have sharks instead! much more efficient....
Archery - We gather Small Tunas with the agility and speed to fire with great prowess, however there size means they can only hold small bows meaning while incredibly agile and accurate are archery isn't particularly powerful

Well I can only stay around for 15 more min as I did nearly no work yesterday and I plan to do some today.

I'll update what I can and get this on a roll

Again, huge thanks to Yoyoma. I think we'll use the old map as we can see the grid a little better.

As for White_eyes.. I'll keep you in for now. If you decides that you can't play, your kingdom becomes neutral and under my countrol :bow:

is the army composition needed?

Beefy187

04-09-2009, 01:36

You can post it here or pm me.

You don't have to follow that format I posted on the first page but you can choose like YLC.

Its just for role playing and changes battle outcome.

And don't make it over powered by using tanks or riflemans. Keep it 1400s.

EDIT: if you don't ill just assume that your infantry based.

*ahem* I rethought my army slightly, so a few changes to make it more clear

Clockwork Shocktroopers - The height of the Consulates technology, Clockwork Shocktroopers are impressive, gear and steam driven, heavily armored soldiers wielding mighty Zweihanders or Warhammers, able to cleave a relentless path through any army. Designed to be easily serviceable, Clockwork Shocktroopers have limited flexibility on the battlefield and although tough to destroy, they are very predictable. Because of their metal construction, current Clockwork Shocktroopers easily rust and seize up in the rain. Clockwork Shocktroopers lack awareness or a sense of fear, and thus never retreat, never surrender, and give no quarter.

Consular Marines - The only true professional troops the Consulate employs, Marines are career soldiers who employ the Sabre and Longmusket. Armored in the finest half plate, Marines are a force to be reckoned with and are the backbone of Consular armies. Trained never to retreat, Marines have superior morale and discipline.

Consular Guard - Citizen of the Consulate must sign up for partial military service to receive any government aid, allowing for a large reservoir of semi-professional soldiers. The Guard are equipped in either half plate or brigandine, and wield either pike or crossbow, all of which is provided by the Consulate. Guard morale is about average, but they are highly disciplined.

Yak Lancers - Citizens from the rural regions are recruited, along with their Yaks, directly into the military as Yak Lancers. The Lancer are well trained in the use of the Yaks as cavalry, ramming home with Lance or the Yak's horns itself. Equipped with half plate or brigandine, and carrying lance and sword, Yak Lancers are usually better trained and more motivated then the Consular Guard.

Yak Artillery - Artillery has become an integral part of the Consular armies, which is usually totted around my Yaks for mobility. Quality and type of Artillery is subject to vary, usually either Catapults, or if from the capital, new Cannons.

This okay Lord Beefy?
