The part where fridge logic strikes. No world experiences that. And the infighting in my empire is only amongst the powerful, they leave the peasantry to their own devices for the most part, so they live well. And how does peace mean anything is they are not free?

I would rather die free than live a slave!

Funny. I thought that you were one counties that had slavery.

(To Fanofgaming: Note. Banhammer)

How would you know enough to prove that? You are far away and were landlocked, meaning you would see very little inter-continental trade, and especially little from them because any traders from them would never have left the harbour. The stories would have been greatly corrupted by then. Also, they obviously spread propaganda about how nice they are to garner international sympathy.

I thought your empire had a lot terchery too. Bacxa was a peaceful land, so that negates corruption, (Very large amounts of) racism, and slavery. Traders were very fair too, in fact, (almost) everyone was. What part about "A great many years of peace and good" don't you understand?

I want to dump a sh*tload of rock, but I don't want to go around marking each one.

How do I do this faster?

Sigh...

To all of you "nukes everywhere" people, that mode is unlocked as sandbox after quest #1487. #1488 is the final battle, the rest are subquests.

I'm not spoiling the place where the battle happens, for the sake of you running in there and breaking continuity. It took me months to get there, anyway.

IS  this massive reaction worth the actual situation? Bacxa is but one other fly-spck despotic state amongst many.

They were a peaceful republic. The nations have varying systems of goverment. but almost none were depotic (This world has been peaceful and good for thousands of years)

I've lost about half of my "Play Now!" characters from .12 to random wildlife spine-kicks.  I either end up paraplegic or suffocating unless I throw an insane amount of stuff to soften them up first.
Well, to be fair, it kind of makes sense. It doesn't pay to startle elephants.
I'm not (usually) that stupid.  It's usually either deer or horses that apply their hooves to my spine at high velocity.
Oh. Yes. because deer and horses are so much safer. Sure they aren't the DEATH WITH FLAT STOMPY FEET. But come on, picture a deer. Now picture its sharp, hard, hooves. Now picture it kicking you...

I now get revenge with my training method.  Aimed attacks to fracture or sever all four hooves to prevent it from kicking my bones through my organs, then I lie down next to them and constantly wrestle, training defensive skills and wrestling.  If I'm feeling like an extra-special asshole, I do that with unicorns.

You may want to rephase that.

fixed, steel is x2, bronze is x1.5. your numbers were correct for the steel version of those items.

Did I? Well, I meant to make the chainmail steel.

Fixed the problem

Can I spend points to up skills? If we can't then we should.
Um, why not get more than chain mail? Also, no iron.

Why no iron? Its just bronze. They have identical properties.
Then say bronze.

Then why not Iron?

Because he's the one making the rules and running this and he says no bloody iron.

Fine, Bronze.

Strange. It's said that Borghyian ships had said very clearly "By order of Broghyia, Surrender or we will bombard you without mercy or regret!".

There were too many witnesses for that to be not true, not to forget that some of them were from other empires!

Did you just say extactly what I said?

That fleet was there on a mission to seek a diplomatic entry for them into the Great Empire of Borghyi, a misunderstanding lead to their destruction. Perhaps the bloodlust of Bacxa should be punished? I wanted to allow them to enter the empire through peaceful means. Within the Empire of Borghyi the people are free to do as they please so long as they pay their taxes. Then stability and unity of the Borghyian Empire is much better than the pettiness and treachery that ruled under the despots of times passed. Bacxa wishes to maintain this ruinous state of affairs.

The Imperial government takes a very dim view of the upperclasses abusing the peasantry. Last month a cabal of nobles dealing in indentured servants was captured and executed. Tyrion Lannister truly does care for the masses. Under Borghyian rule the people of Bacxa would be much better off. Please allow me to free them from their bondage.

I think because of recent annoyance, most events will be randomly gen'd now.

1 to 30

30 being the best and 1 being the worst.
