The Mongols are coming.
Their great Khan sent a message to you, and all the lords of the Rus, demanding your fealty and surrender or die. The arrogance made you sick as you read the letter… You gritted your teeth and thought of what you wanted.
You remembered the oath you swore at your father's grave, how you would kill all the Mongols… But you also knew one thing that could happen if you choose to ask for the ability to go to war. Your home would be in danger. Zima would be in danger, and your children would be in danger.
But the war has not been declared. There have been no true armies crossing the borders of either side. It is the calm before the storm.
But at least you're back in your homeland, ready to defend her if she needs it.
Diplomacy: There are matters of the state that you must attend too before you go to war.
(Choose 2)
[X]Reaching In: (Random Province): Your father said that there are men throughout the empire who understood the dangers of the Frontier, and they are more than willing to meet and discuss its future and safety. Cost: 50 Chance of success: 70% Reward: Domestic lords met. New actions become available. Rolled:1D100 => 1
Philip wanted to introduce you to his father. Unfortunately, the Duke of Aquitaine and Anjou saw him as nothing but a disgrace to his family name for his poor health and him joining the Imperial army against the wishes of his father and his mother.
He was also continuously insulted by his father for his inability to properly fight. He also continually reminded him that if it were up to him and not his uncle the grand prince, Philip would have been disinherited for not living up to the family name.
Bringing you with him to his little family reunion, Philip thought he would be creating a nice alliance between his father and you. Unfortunately, he completely forgot about your... religious background, and your presence just made Philip's father furious, as he had suspected you were now trying to openly convert his son to your 'heretical' branch of Christianity.
Philip's mother was protective as any mother should be and you were quite hopeful that she was the cooler head of Philip's parents.
That was until she demanded that Philip leave the army for a much safer profession working under his father as if she refused to believe that Philip had done something without her help.
But the final straw was Philip politely saying no to both his mother and father. And Philip's father struck him with his cane.
The only thing stopping you from dueling Philip's father right then and there, was Philip desperately pleading with you, tears falling down his face, not to. He wanted to handle it himself. He said he could handle it alone.
So you sat outside. Minutes passed. All you could hear was Phillip arguing with his father and mother, intermittently punctuated by the sharp crack of your friend being struck with his father's cane.
It came to a point you could tolerate it no longer. You stormed into the room, bodily threw the duke aside before he could hit Philip again, and helped your friend walk back to your carriage.
Failure Reward: Domestic lord of the Empire met: Duke Raymond of Aquitaine and Anjou: Relation set at 0/100
[X]Lords of the Rus: You need to make sure the Lords of the Rus are going to be on your side. Cost: 10 Chance of success: 50% Reward: Relations with the Russian Lords improved. Rolled: 1D100 => 63
Your crushing victory against the Mongol raiding parties, along with the celebratory feast that happened afterward, helped smooth relations with your lords and made them all much happier.
Reward: All domestic lords of the Rus' relation is increased by 15.
Martial: War is coming… you don't know when, but at least you know who you're fighting.
(Choose 3)

You and Nicholas were relentless with your training, pushing your men to their absolute limits. Some clamored that they wanted to die than suffer your training.
You ordered them that they were forbidden to die without your express permission. And they became stronger because of it.
And when they faced the Mongol raiders, your men cut them down with no mercy, getting their first taste of Mongol blood.
Reward: All units are promoted up to Veteran Level Experience (this is the max level they can go). They now have a +20 to all battle rolls from here on out with no commander, and a +30 with a commander and can use their specialized abilities without a commander skill.
[X]The Raids: You need to send a message to the Mongols who are raiding your territory. You are not going to tolerate their continued presence. Their transgression and the blood of your people will be paid with their own blood. Even though you are not there to do it, you can Send Nicholas to do it for you. Cost: 100 Chance of success: 35% Reward: The Mongols will not raid your territory. Disaster Roll reduced. Rolled: 1D100 => 96+35=131
You tasted victory today. A message had been sent to the Khan of Khans and to your people. Your lands were going to be free. And the Mongols were going to die. (Continued in Messages Sent, With Steel and Blood)
[X]Recruit More Troops: You need more able-bodied men in your army, and you know the Rus has a larger population to call upon. Cost: 100 Chance of success: 30% Reward: A D10,000 is rolled for soldiers recruited. Soldiers experience will be placed at (Recruits) Rolled:1D100 => 86+20=106
1D10000 => 8500

Reward: 8500 of various unit type recruits join your army.
Stewardship: The trade is protected… The fur must flow!... Axel now is not the time to make jokes, we can work on getting spice up here later.

Axel has started to muster up supplies for the cities siege stocks.
Will complete next turn.
[X]In Dire Times (Fortifying): Fortifications are needed to survive the Mongols. You need to get your hands on everything that you need to defend your city. You found some notes in your father's old books about making Novgorod into a citadel, along with other defenses like ballista towers. It will take time and coin, but it will make Novgorod safe. Cost: 2000, (This action lasts for 5 turns) Chance of success: 30% Reward: You begin construction of extra fortifications on Novgorod. Rolled:1D100 => 93

Cost 20 Chance of success ???% Reward: Poland and the empire are forced to react. Rolled: 1D100 => 100
You were very happy when Prince Jan was brought before the emperor after you showed him and several members of the House of Lords the will. And you were elated by the emperor gently setting the crown on Zima's head. (Continued in Swift Justice)
[X]Spies...spies everywhere: You need to know who's keeping tabs on you...and whether you should leave them be or purge the sons of bitches to send a message. Cost: 100 Chance of success 50%. Reward: You learn who might be spying on you. Rolled:1D100 => 54
Natasha's report on who was spying on you… made you consider for a moment if the old emperor's fears were merely misdirected. Agents from every power in the world had infiltrated your motherland. Worse yet, the early evidence suggested someone had been using these agents to shadow and reveal your troop movements to the Mongols, and were responsible for the death of thousands of imperial soldiers, and your own people.
You wanted to find them, and end them.
Reward: New action available.
Learning: A mind is a powerful tool, and you are going to use it as best you can.

Personal: Zima is so happy that your sons are okay… You are too.
(Choose 2)
[X]Overlook: The Raids.
[X]A Night on the Town: So your bodyguards want to go out and drink, and want to bring you along. You'll go with them to shut them up. Cost: 0 Chance of success 100% Reward: Interesting events might occur. Rolled: 1D100 => 89
"Lads... Where are we?" You asked as you held your throbbing head, looking at your companions scattered around the ground. "And where is my shirt?"
"I don't think we need to worry about your shirt right now Vasily, we've got bigger things to worry about... Like why the fuck are there ten dead Mongols around us?" Wilhelm replied.
(Continued in A Night to Remember)
Disaster Roll: 1D100 => 1
"Alexander... Our production of these weapons has reached its limit." You heard the man protest.
You nodded. "A hundred cannons a month, along with its ammunition, is not enough Herr Gadsby." You narrowed your eyes in determination. "We need more for the army."
"I need more time... More men!" Gadsby replied.
"Then I will give them to you." You replied. "Just get me more cannons."
(Continued in Artillery Production)
AN: Enjoy.
