"Protection? Don't make me laugh. Glass windows, glass windshield, how well do those stand up to zombie fists? And while I'm not as fast, I don't draw every zed within miles to my location and don't need to stop every whatever-dozen miles to refuel."

Enter storage room. Say words at anything hostile I see.

Heal self. Complain to announcer about being called "the damn dragon."

((Are our characters actually in the same room, talking to each other? If so:))

"Look, a pickup sounds nice and all, but what'll you do when you bust an axle going cross-country--roads definitely aren't an option for you, between the abandoned cars and horrible potholes and such--or get a zed suck in your wheel, or just run out of gas? You're dead, bud, because even if you can find a gas station miraculously still functioning, it's going to be swarming with every corpse within ten miles, coming to investigate the noises you've been making across the countryside. And pickups aren't made to withstand mobs, 'specially not ones which don't react when you start running 'em over. The only advantages are that you can carry a lot--and what do you really need, other than supplies and perhaps a weapon?--and that you don't have to work your body to get around."

Wave the scepter around some. Hope this doesn't kill me.

I just can't get through an action without half-expecting something to kill me, can I?

....10ebbor, I have to ask: Where the heck do you get all this obscure knowledge from ???
No idea, actually. Tendency to remember stuff I read. (Mostly the nonimportant parts, but anyway)
I have that as well, but tend to focus more on natural sciences and earlier history. (Which is part of why everyone else is so much better at naming specific historical precedent than I.)

Anyways, I will just repeat some things that were already said in some form or another that I agree with:

1. We should set up the town wall fairly soon, although with plenty of room to grow.
2. Our tower should have multiple purposes.
3. Our fortifications of all sorts should be capable of protecting all valuable things we have, most notably our citizens.
4. We probably shouldn't start just yet, just plan and see if we can find workers.
5. Careful about passing a keep off as a tower.

Now for something not said: Gervassen, your research is pretty impressive.

Then again I'm probably just nitpicking, but still.
Agonizing pain having an effect isn't a nit.
Actually, I think certain types of nits deliver agonizing pain.
Nits may have effects of agonizing pain, but agonizing pain having an effect isn't a nit.

Dariush still needs to place his scout, and now Doomblade gets a pawn at A8, C8, or G8.

Speaking of Dariush...

So that's a "no" to the coloring.

That sounds...interesting.

Here are the options:
1. Entrance in mouth, vomits magma.
2. Entrance in mouth, cries magma.
3. Entrance in beard, vomits magma.

((And you had to go on with a pre-adolescent criminal? Seriously? Despite the setting being a chaotic universe with a dictatorial government, they'd be punishing Eleven year olds with this kind of treatment? Hell. Given what we've seen, even in that kind of class-based society there would at least be some kind of laws regarding the jurisdiction of juveniles and 'breaking the law'. He's not even a teenager.

...

E: Still, PW accepted it. Disregard. Just please don't do anything horrid or demeaning. Or at least in the mind of something other than what is moral or ethical. Please.
I'm offended that you think I would willingly do something like that.

Seeing that, this makes the whole universe even more twisted. I mean, there was another sheet of the same age and PW didn't accept it. Comparing both, at least yours has better reasons. I guess.))
...I'm not the first to try this? Aw.
Still, the way I look at this, this mostly makes Grate's homeworld a sucky place. Of course, what that says about the galaxy as a whole isn't good, but it's not as bad.

Sorry about that, I was unsure exactly how large our holding was. This is a good problem to have.

So we're clearly aiming for "around what is going to be our city with plenty of room to expand," then?
That's how I understand it.

And if we grow to the size of our walls and need to expand? Ask permission for new walls, of course! IIRC, "layers" of walls like that may not have been common, but they weren't unheard of.

Hey look, a turn I missed!

Test test. This looks pretty visible. Thoughts?

Ahem.

Attempt to learn and experiment with methods used by foreign nations to improve the efficiency of Chinese anything. Ready the army for war and start mobilization towards the western portion of the country, and to a lesser extent the southern. DO NOT ATTACK ANYONE YET.
