Basileus' and Chancellors Reports

[Ibn-Khaldun]

This thread is for seasonal summaries of in-game events by the Chancellor and Basileus, and reports by the Strategos' on actions they have taken with the saved game.

Other than the Chancellor and Basileus, Strategoi should only post in this thread to say they are taking the save, to upload a new save, and to report whatever actions they have taken with the save.

Chancellor Report, Spring 272BC

There are no important news at this moment.

Our most eastern settlements near Saka and Baktrian borders are rioting. More than 600 people have died in those riots.

People in Hekatompylos are planning to rebel against our rule. Our newly pointed Satrap there should lower the taxes and hope for the best.

We are allied with Baktria, Hayasdan, Pahlava, Pontos and Makedonia. I have received letters that the first three actually are trying to brake their alliance with us and that they have already made such preparations.

OOC: You can take the save now. Post in this thread when you take the save. Please compress the new save before uploading it, and then post a link to the new save in a new post in this thread. Please summarize what you did with the save in that post.

The save will be open for the next 24 hours. If needed then I will expand that time.

Changed taxes in Sardis to very high, but left everything else as is. Note that Pontos has entered Kappadokia with an army. Do they have military access through our lands? Is this a belligerent move on their part?

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

OOC: how do you upload to that mizus site?

Taking the save.

Since I didn't do anything (nothing to do really) someone can just use the above save, I'm done.

[MerlinusCDXX]

Done with save. Moved east...

Basileus and Chancellor Reports, Winter 272

Moved my Royal Army west. It should get to Syria in the next 6-9 months(2-3turns).
Recruited missing infantry units to my Royal Army.

Syrian Army is near the Antiocheia-Tarsos border. Aratos Arethousas Syriakes can move them the way he wants.

As a punishment to Andromachos Syriakos I destroyed Pasargadai. It gave 2000 mnai to the treasure thus almost compensating the cost of those watchtowers.

I would like to have the permission to recruit 5 Pantodapoi Phalangitai and 1 Hippakontistai in Persepolis to the Satraps Army. I would also like if Andromachos Syriakos could count Eastern Slinger and Eastern Skirmisher units from Karmana as part of his Satraps Army.

Made Sarpedon Syriakos as my Heir. I will recruit units to his Royal Army while they are moving west.

Other news..

Made peace with Koinon Hellenon. We gave them trade rights and sold them map information for 2000 mnai.

Epirotes have conquered Pella from the Makedonians.

Antiochos Syriakos is taking part of the Babylonian New Years Festival.

OOC: Transfered the Satrapies ancillaries to Sarpedon. Unfortunately I made a mistake and transfered the Parthava ancillary to Lykikos and not to Lydikes. could someone fix that. I allow to use console for that. The right line would be this: give_ancillary "Phanias Laodikeiaslydikes" "satrapy_of_parthaya". Whoever going to do this should remove the ancillary from Polyxenidos Lykikos first. The right line for that would be remove_ancillary "Polyxenidos Lykikos" "satrapy_of_parthaya"

Chancellor Report, Spring 268 BCE

A little more (non-violent) action this season than the last. New buildings in construction is a temple to Atargatis in Side, a greater governor's mansion in Ekbatana and a wooden palisade in Hekatompylos. The MIC for foreigners is also being expanded in Mazaka. In Ipsos, the construction of basic farming has completed, and the city prospers and grows once again. A new government has been successfully installed in Salamis, and a temporary military government is in place in Pergamon.

The Syrian army in Antiocheia has been retrained, as were the Peltastai and Toxotai from my own Royal Army. The rest, including myself, got improvements to their equipment.

In foreign affairs, the Pontic army that was seen moving towards Nikaia has taken a beating and retreated back into our lands. There should be no reason to fret, as they're most likely to leave our lands as quickly as they came. Pontos has also gone to war against Epeiros.

But there is some bad news too: we only held on to the title as the most advanced nation for one season! The new name on everyone's lips are now the Karthadastim.

Treasury: 1229 mnai

Captured and expelled the citizens of Halikarnassos with medium casualties. The city is still rebellious, however.
