After the scouting parties reported back in, they told tales of other civilisations. After some rest, they were sent out again to try and make contact with these states. The parties from the south had reached a large river, which they began mapping out.
Unitrico, do you wish to join in the blossoming Prussian Trade route, I assure you It would be a safe investment
Good job guys, we're getting much fairer now. I'm going to name @Epiccheesegrater as another "moderator" of this game, if he accepts? You may create events and NPC cities, and control some of the current ones. Just don't do anything to benefit Tyre.
@Skyicewolf MS Paint has done everything it can for us. So instead of just fighting you, I think I'll just besiege you. I split up my slaves into three groups of 2,000, each surrounding a third of the city. Meanwhile 3,500 cavalry will sit on either side of the village prepared to help the slaves if the barbarians attempt a break out. The crop is burned and fire arrows launched into the city on a regular basis (though I'm assuming with limited success). Animosity is offered to all barbarians who surrender. In fact we would be happy to give them a place in the Scythian army if they wished. And we'll gladly repay any damages caused by this battle.
Holy shit this exploded fast, we should also bring up a shipping trade rout between Sweden, Poland, Danzig, and Denmark (but Denmark is not playing)
Huzzah! Johannes has used his diplomatic mind to bring income to Danzig for the first time since the days of the council! He should easily secure re-election. Oh and how long is a year?
I suggest Venice become an NPC city state where all nations within the trade pact go to begin shipment by land.
