Gotcha, anything I should know technology-wise? My civ used to be part of an empire so I'm wondering what I got from them. The Bronze Age. So, you have writing, calendars, mining, bronze weaponry, agriculture, domesticated animals, wheeled chariots and sailing. You can't navigate across the oceans because the compass hasn't been invented yet. You haven't industrialized or discovered iron yet either. |

Okay, I think I know what I want.
Vote 1) Investigate agricultural markets for possible cash crops and how to properly exploit them.

Alright, we have to do something here to get rid of the food shortage. Hopefully, since our people have been living in luxury for a long time, we can try trading with the empire to our south.
Vote: Trade with the southern kingdom

ROUND I
1500 BC Zorustians (GabrielGG )Vote: build a stone wall to prevent the barbarians from raiding further Roll: 11Outcome: The King of Zorustia orders the construction of a great wall on the northern frontier. The manpower needed to erect such a massive object was massive. Convicts and Slaves were sent to the quarries to gather stone and then builders built long towers. Even more shockingly, the wall was completed in just 20 years. The wall has certainly fortified you from any future invasions, but millions of workers died from exhaustion during its construction. During the construction the empire was placed under martial law and millions were wrongly convicted for crimes they did not commit. With the wall completed, there is a huge incarcerated population, all of which must be fed and sheltered by the government.On the verge of bankruptcy, some advisors suggest pardoning the convicts, saving us the expense of keeping them alive. Still others have suggested training the convicts into a regiment army to amass more territory and wealth. What will be Zorustiaās next course of action?
Stability: 1Power: 1Zirk (blackink )
Vote: try to develop masonry to make strong buildings
Roll: 8
Outcome: Your people construct large, fortified buildings to live in. During raids bells are rung to alarm the locals, who retreat into the local garrison. The fortresses are quite durable and have yet to be captured by barbarian hordes, but without a strong perimeter your cities fall prey to plundering and vandalism.
With the infrastructure of the north destroyed, and the considerable costs to maintain the fortresses, many advisors have suggested we abandon our northern territories. Military advisors, however, believe abandoning the north will only encourage the barbarianās southern expansion.
Stability 0
Power 1KoraāTor (@immortal_Dragon)
Vote: Investigate agricultural markets for possible cash crops and how to properly exploit them.
Roll: 8
Outcome: You discover how to cultivate the narcotic known as Tizyi, known for its hallucinogenic effects. The narcotic is quite popular and provides you with a decent income. Your kingdom soon becomes the richest of the region, and the word KoraāTor becomes synonymous with wealth.
Unfortunately many of your own citizens have succumb to drug addiction. Drug use has led to unemployment and a rise in mugging, as addicts resort to robbery to afford their fix. Numerous people advise you to prohibit the sale and distribution of Tizyi in your borders.
Stability: -1
Power: 2
Thourian (soundwave )
Vote: Train my people for self defence
Roll: 19
Outcome: A wise warrior known as Danipudh has enlightened your people in the ways of martial arts and warfare. At a young age children are selected for a government-funded military program, turning them into merciless soldiers. The Six Swords Alliance attempts to siege your city, but they are outflanked and mercilessly slaughtered by your forces. With their manpower crippled you exploit the opportunity and invade northeast, occupying the six rival city-states.
Like cowards they beg for mercy. Should your forces burn their cities to the ground and plunder them of their resources? Or perhaps annex the six cities and reeducate their children in the art of war?
Stability: 1
Power: 3Kore (agenttine )
Vote: Trade with the southern kingdom
Roll: 7
Outcome: In a desperate bargain you plea to the Kingdom of the Sapadiks for food and grain. Seeing your desperation, they humbly accept your request in exchange for 50% of your savings. While affordable, it puts a strain on your economy, and taxes must be raised to accommodate this goal. Your people get endās meet, but life becomes quite dull compared to what is once was, and suicide becomes more common.
Stability: 0
Power: 1Ocylym (lordclassyus )
Vote: Sacrifice the king to the gods
Roll: 16
Outcome: In a coup dāetat the King is ousted from power and given to the shamans for trial. They perform a ritualistic sacrifice in an attempt to appease the gods. The periodic hurricanes and flooding which plagued your coasts have dissipated, and the people return to their homes to rebuild from the catastrophe. However, with the king dead there's a vacant throne. Should we return to our roots and coronate a new king, or perhaps we must reform our form of government?
Stability: 2
Power: 1 |

I am very pleased with how that went. Also, nice writing!
As for my second vote: Create a council of shamans with 15 seats. 7 seats for the wisest of the shamans, the other 8 for the gods.

Cool, now let's explore that option of coastal colonies so that can earn some cash.

Okay, that backfired a little bit.
Vote 1: Mark Tizyi harvests as explicitly for export only and use our newfound wealth to help those who are addicted.
Vote 2: Start the creation of stone buildings. We not only will be known for our wealth but also the fortitude of our structures.

Vote: the "state invests heavily" in advertising for detainees voluntarily joining the army, after all this is much better than being arrested. Those who do well and really devote themselves to the army may choose to leave or get better positions. Those who do not strive are obliged to continue (but the authorities do not speak this explicitly).
