OH COME ON YOUVE GOT TO BE KIDDING!

Look on the bright side, at least your civilisation isn't collapsing due to a deadly plague, a bunch of Martial Heroes and bad weather.

They also built a couple of palisades this main turn after finishing their last shrine during the previous mid turn.

Well, that's some good news at least.

Still not very optimistic on the Arthwyd winning that war. We are not ready for this shit. At all.
 
Question about that but is it the same nomad martial hero who was invading the south or is it a different one?

Different one. That one in the Lowlands was just a Martial Hero while this one got rolled up this turn and is a Martial/Diplo Hero.

Well, that's some good news at least.

The thing is, I had already decided that would be their actions before I rolled up the events for the Nomad Hero invading. I figured that they would either build trails or palisades and figured that after being on both ends of surprise attacks on a village, they would go for the palisades over the trails.

Then the nomads invaded so it turned out that they were right to choose defence over connectivity.

so pallisade were a good investment then
 
I can barely believe this. I was just looking through the rules doc and the nomad Martial Hero invading was just enough to hit the requirements for an Epic Age, which I shall quote directly from my rule doc.
The Rules said:
Each Great Power gets either a Hero if they don't have one already or a change to upgrade their Hero to Genius if they do
And the Arthwyd just hit the requirements to be a Great Power with the collapse of the lowlands.

So anyone want a free Martial Hero?

Good Lord, these last couple of updates have been crazy. Crazy awesome, but I can't believe how all of the rolls are adding up to this epic saga that is taking place.

did our current martial hero die this turn otherwise it is a upgrade for him.
 
Wait, do the nomads qualify as a Great Power?

Major Power by the dint of the other powers collapsing.

The Arthwyd are a Great Power while the Merntir and the Nomads are Major Powers, but that is only due to all of their powers collapsing, but since how greatness of your nation on the international stage is relative to the other contenders, you managed to all get yourselves higher on the ranking than you should be.

So, if the nomads qualify as a Major Power, can they upgrade their Martial Hero into a Martial Genius?
 
Wait, since the Arthwyd and Merntir are technically separate, are the Merntir considered a Great Power, too?
 
Hmm, if Nomad boi is a diplo hero as well then perhaps they can be reasoned with?

We have a bunch of food, we might be able to give them some in return for them fucking off.
If they already invaded however, then we're kinda forced to retaliate.
 
And it turns out that Malbyn is still alive this turn. Not Cadnys mind you. She died of old age.

Now that I have done the Epic Age rolls for the Great Bay area.

The Arthwyd have two Martial Heroes.
The Merntir have a Martial Hero and a Tech Hero.
The Nomads have a Genius Martial/Heroic Diplo leading a horde against the Merntir.

So, if the nomads qualify as a Major Power, can they upgrade their Martial Hero into a Martial Genius?

Yup.

Great Power, not Major Power.

Major powers can do that to. So can Minors, but they have to roll to see if it works.

Wait, since the Arthwyd and Merntir are technically separate, are the Merntir considered a Great Power, too?

No, they are a Major Power as mentioned here:
the Merntir and the Nomads are Major Powers
 
So we have a total of 3 martial heros now... well what a perfect time to counter an attack then lets teach them why you dont fight us.
 
Three Martial Heroes versus a Genius when we're at a logistical disadvantage.
If they can hold out long enough for the rest of our hunters to get there, then we should be able to overwhelm their Genius with home advantage.

A good thing about our extremely theocratic government is that the Merntir are very unlikely to flip to the Nomads even if they are being completely pressed down because we derive our legitimacy from the Goddesses of the People.

the saxons did that with that with the vikings and they went away and came back with more men demanding more until it became a racketeering operation for a good while
