[X] [Evalyn] Yes. She shall lead the People to victory and reclaim the lost Merntir lands. (Change Government Type to Early Ancient Theocratic Monarchy, +1 Legitimacy, +2 Stability, +1 Hierarchy)
[X] [Bonus] Gain two new war-related innovations.

Innovations are basically straight upgrades.
Upgrading the value in current atmosphere would only make us more bloodthirsty.
Upgrading a hero would only strengthen the upper classes, thus further reducing equality.
Random hero has a chance of getting a Diplo one, which is useless currently (we want WAR and to avoid the sickness of Lowlands).

Let's grind those nomads down, and get new tools to do that with.
Heroes come and go, innovations stay.

Non-zero chance that this will unlock the monk-class sacred unit that will punch through skin and armour alike!

The tech seems to be fitting the best for me.
We spend a long time at war and with several heros on our side one of which was/is a tech hero.

Also i am very interested in what we might get here in terms of tech as anything that makes our scouts/eilites stronger/better is very likely allow us to murder our way through most armys that don´t have hero support.

If we get a Round 2, I hope the Boarfolk roll another Hero.

That is a possibility.

Sometimes. Other times, you just let them rott

The only arrogant one here is the traitor who thinks things would've gone better had she had absolute power. It wouldn't, such is the Power of a Genius Khan. She is nothing more than a sad, broken woman trying to blame others for her own failures.

Why would you want someone like that as your ruler?

Actually, she would have done better. She has Heroic Martial, Excellent Admin, Average Diplo, Above Average Mystic, Poor Tech and Terrible Culture so Evalyn is excellent for waging a war.

Biiit uncertain as to the bonus but I like the random hero idea- though that's me assuming we don't want more martial focus atm.

I just don't want a civil war, especially not just after another war. That is straight out of a failed state scenario.
Not as sure about the bonus, another random hero could be great as well

    Don't care much for the boar folk, if they didn't want to lose so many they should not have come to our vassals land. If they went to the lowlands I wouldn't have cared either...mostly because the nightmares gift or the crazy low landers would have fought them.

    I wonder just how many more of the boar people have to die before they call it quits and go back to the stepps?

    Fuck that guy.

    Well this means it's raiding time untill we get those lands back and hammer the damn boar people to ash!!!

    Edit: calmed down...still salty about losing our vassal and lands.

    @RandomDwarf, it's time for you to go and review the rules of SV. Specifically Rule 2, Don't Be Hateful, which involves revenge fantasies and advocation of genocide. Yes, including those against fictional peoples or polities.

    In the meantime, have 25 points and a three day threadban. Maybe use that time to think about how you got here, and how not to get back here again.

    As for the thread at large? Just remember that you can hold enmity and vote for options without posting revenge fantasies or advocating genocide.

    How many martial heroes are we up against now?
     
    [X][Evalyn] No. The priests serve the goddesses faithfully and Evalyn is a traitor. (Civil War, -1 Legitimacy, -2 Stability)

    Wait, so we're not allowed to advocate genocide even in a civ quest? What would have been done if we were a more warmongering type civ? :confused:

    Normally, challenging a moderator direction in the thread is a breach of the rules, but I feel lenient and we just cut the report queue to a single digit, so I'll humour you.

    @McLuvin was infracted for the specific wording and tone of his post, in which he advocates the brutal murder of every woman and child with flame weapons, even if these are fictional characters, they remain fictional human characters; if you were to argue that every Nazi be incinerated in the fire, you would be infracted for that, if you were to argue that every Eldar of Warhammer 40.000 fame were to be incinerated, you would be infracted for that. Admittedly, this is a fine line to walk, but the difference tends to be whether you advocate it or act upon it; let us construct a vote for the imaginary Hypothetical Quest. In Hypothetical Quest, you play Prince Theoretical of Imaginaryland; Prince Theoretical has recently won a war over his sworn enemies, the Speculative Folk. The quest master, ManusDomine (a real asshole that one, I can tell you; why I even infracted him once!) writes up the following voting options:

    [ ] Accept Their Surrender
    [ ] Kill Them All, Let God Know His Own
    [ ] Write-In

    Our theoretical player, is named OfDebatableVeracity, now he has several options:

    He can choose to write a short or long post, arguing why the Speculative Folk are a disgusting species or a horrible kind of people and why they should be exterminated to the last man, woman and child, he can choose to make a simile with a kind of insect; corkroaches or ants, maybe? These things would get OfDebatableVeracity infracted.

    He can also choose to write a post of varying lenth on the merits of exterminating them, he can explain why it makes more sense for Prince Theoretical to do so based on his character arc, he could explain how the mechanics simply make it better to just exterminate them or he could even just vote with no extra commentary! All of these things would not get OfDebatableVeracity infracted.

    Now, sometimes leniency can be applied, and if @McLuvin feels that the infraction was perhaps unjust or made without full thought of the situation, he can certainly appeal it, no doubt that he or one of our Advocates could make a trustworthy case for reduction or complete removal of the report.

    In the future, please use the private messages system instead, I am quite open to questioning, but I recommend that you do not use the thread for it, arguing with a moderator is never on-topic. :V

    Have a good day.

    [X] [Bonus] Upgrade the Value Sacred War

    I think we want to upgrade the Sacred War trait so we can either get something more out of it or mitigate its drawback.
    Sacred War type traits are HARD to upgrade, because whenever it comes up we're on the brink of death, so its just down to the Golden Age gacha.
