    • [X] Plan Settling In
      -[X] Secure the Surrounding Villages: the smattering of hamlets and villages surrounding the compound have turned to us in their time of need to defend them from the local thugs, bandits and warlords that come to demand "protection" money from them. No more. Have Ahim send out the clan's might with orders to slay all who would engage in such thuggery and to bring the people under our protection. Make the surrounding areas into Vassals that will provide a tax of 600 food and 500 Gold per turn, secure the flanks of the compound from bandits, and expand the area of influence. Opens more stewardship and martial actions.
      -[X] New Great Coat Uniform: The current uniform, or rather lack thereof, is whatever the shinobi's family has to provide them with which is usually just thick wool robes and scarfs, this is obviously something we should fix. Thankfully the seamstress guild has been collaborating with the engineers and researchers to develop a standardized uniform consisting of a long great coat like robe with a high collar that comes in beautiful sapphire, emerald and steel grey colors at the request of the person wearing them that will provide better protection, more room to hold weapons, and provide comfort while wearing armor such as chakra steel plate. The Department will create and finalize the design and then pass it on to the seamstress guild to produce and equip our forces by the end of the year.
      -[X] Petty Lords: The legions of so called "princes", "barons", "dukes" and in one memorable case "Bovine Emperor" that populate the region are all busy fighting one another for a myriad of stupid and petty reasons. Get to work extracting as much gold as possible from this state of affairs. Easy Difficulty Mercenary Mission.
      --[X] Iron Hands Jiton Tokubetsu Jounin
      -[X] Merc Work; the "Dwarfs" and these so called "Vampires": There's a community of rude, vertically challenged, hairy drunk people called the "Dwarfs" in this land that are also supposedly the best craftsmen, artisans and engineers in the region. While I cannot verify any of these talents and abilities I have heard they are offering good solid gold to fight Ghouls, the undead not put to rest properly, now running around in human skin feasting upon the weak. We will do the world a service and eradicate them.
      --[X] The Guardians and Akeem
      -[X] Investigate Poison Regents: Prema advises that while her current repertoire is good for now she notes that it was all made to attack the human physiology and in this world we are not dealing solely with humans now as such she requests a piece of the budget and shinobi be set aside to seek out good components for more effective poisons.
      -[X] Train Chemists: Prema is the best poison maker and chemist in the clan and she's willing to sit down for a year and train staff and students in her skillset to create a proper research and development team for the creation and distribution of poisons.
      -[X] Local Outreach: Mikyoharu has spent the last month building ties with the local warlords and civil leadership to keep them wasting our time and ammo by killing them for daring to attack us. Now she's requesting to be given the time to work out more solid trade deals and non-aggression pacts with them. Gain +500 Gold and +1000 food per turn, money will go up as local economy increases and the clan produces more to sell.
      -[X] International Diplomacy; the South: Camels. Faithful companions to the clan and the main reason we were able to travel and interact with the rest of the continent, it brings me close to tears to think about alongside thousands of our clansmen we also lost most of the camels in the siege including Samiira and Varsuka. Now we have only a hundred and unless we find a local supply of them to mate with they will go extinct. Miyoharu understands this cannot be allowed to happen under any cost, the locals have been shown our camels and confirmed that to the South in a land called Araby that is home to this world's version of camels. I will send her there to make deals to stimulate the clan's economy and save our companions.
      -[X] Turn your compound into a proper city: The clan will not live in squalor a day more than necessary I swear this as the Rayiys, we know Jiton and Doton it is time to use them. I will conscript every spare ninja available this year to focus on constructing a proper urban living area with strong stable houses made of iron and stone with built in bathrooms connected to a underground sewage system, several public baths, areas carved out for sports and leisure, a large public library, several shrines to the gods, open spaces for gardening, a central plaza from which the clan could administrate it's duties and more.
      -[X] Prospect Minerals and Metals: Gold and Silver, the materials necessary to perform our trades, are unfortunately in short supply amongst ourselves, thankfully our Kekkei Genkai makes finding and digging up more of them very, very easy.
      -[X] Road Networks; Hamlets and Villages: The villages surrounding us are in a shit sandwich of a situation. They are isolated and disconnected with no good solid roads giving them access to the wider world and their own small sizes make I them an unattractive target of investment by any outside powers. Fortunately for them the clan has come to do what no one else would and offer to build them roads.
      -[X] Improve Puppet Designs: The puppets are shit. And that isn't my opinion it's literally what Raizou wrote here for me to read and he says that before we can even begin to dare think about starting mass production and equipment of our forces we need to design a better frame for the puppets for use and manufacturing in this world immediately.
      -[X] Train Puppet Artisans: Raizou's staff is trained but are not fully masters in their duties and in what he's good at. I will correct that now by forcing him to sit down and give them an intense study and work course that will disseminate as much of his knowledge as possible, it will take a year of his personal attention and he is going to be unhappy about being made to do something he's not particularly good at instead of working on other projects but this cannot be put off.
      -[X] Study Wicked Chi: For all that there is goodness and safety in this land there is also wickedness. The priests and priestesses report that they feel a malignant energy coming from many creatures and things that surround us and they would like to research it to determine what it is, how it will affect us and what can we do to defend ourselves from it.
      -[X] Train Scribes and Secretaries: Akeem has offered to provide his skills as an administrator to training assistants and secretaries for the rest of the Jounin council that would help them with recording their knowledge. Giving many who are lacking in their diligence with paper work a better shot of actually getting something done.
      -[X] Overwork yourself: There is too much shit to get done and I'll put in the hours in the office to see them finished this I swear!
      -[X] Help in preparing the Bazaar: The Bazaar is one of the most important events for the clan and for my family, I will not have anything or anyone dare interrupt it.
      -[X] Make One Set of Intermediate level Chakra Steel Armor
      --[X] For Akeem
      [X] Plan Specialists Should Exploit There Specialties.
      -[X] Equip 5 Chunin with Puppets: Currently due to the limitations of the clan's industry and what we could carry Raizou is the only one with a few baseline puppets left in his arsenal, we could distribute some of those bottom tier models out to the chunin but even these are expensive for us currently, on the other hand they would provide our Chunin with a way of fighting enemies from a safe distance.

      -[X] Stealing is such an ugly word:

      -[X] Study Chakra Steel: We have only began to decipher the secrets of chakra forging, we must keep going if we are to recreate the wonders of the samurai clans. It is good to see that Raizou is of the same mind and wants to gather together the current smiths we do have to investigate the materials they create to get a deeper understanding of them for future applications.
      -[X] Study Wicked Chi: For all that there is goodness and safety in this land there is also wickedness.

      -[X] Build Shrines: The people of this land have righteous faiths according to Akeem, a heartening thing really to know that the evil cults like Jashinism aren't the norm in this region as such there is a proposal to start building shrines to our own pantheon along the routes and towns our shinobi are patrolling.
      -[X] Overwork yourself: There is too much shit to get done and I'll put in the hours in the office to see them finished this I swear!
      --[X] Assess local medicines: Raizou dislikes the idea of paying to listen to the tall tales of the local medicine men and women to find real nuggets of valuable medical knowledge in between all the snake-oils and placebos they offer but he feels it would be worth it.
      -[X] Travel: The world is vast and I need to understand it, I will requisition one of our chakra camels and go out to explore the world and see it with my own eyes.

    I wonder how our relationships with our neighbors and the elves (normal and dark), the skaven, the beastman, the moon, chaos in general and maybe even the lizard people will continue.
     
    We are the most dwarf like in hospitality and grudges, so we have that going for us. As long as we don't blunder the first contact (which is us helping against a vamp infestation), we should be fine.

    I'm pretty sure that relationship with the Dark Elves, Skaven, Beastmen, and Chaos Cultists will be pretty gosh darn negative. Orcs too probably. Just a guess. :V

    As for the actual negotiable factions... honestly it's entirely dependent on how we do things and the circumstances in which we meet them. The Empire already drills into people how to manage Dwarfen quirks so that's probably a good bet in terms of alliance. Bretonnia is likely gonna be tense because we would dislike their whole system. Dwarfs are likely going to be a grumbling respect if nothing else than because we're very similar. Elves are a complete mystery to me, imo it would greatly depend on first impressions and whether or not their dickery makes itself known. Tomb Kings depends on the skeleton person in question.
     
    Love this story dude did the sand have the one tail would say other name but autocorrect doesn't like the one tails name.Also one more thing wondering if we have any fuinjutsu experts seems like it'd be useful with daemons around.

    We have no Tailed Beasts at all. This is long before the clan would get control of Shukaku. Also we have no fuinjutsu right now except for maybe the absolute basics like scrolls that can store a few kilograms of equipment (and even then I'm not sure). Basically the cool stuff like sealing spirits and jutsu is unavailable for a long while, although I believe Chakra Steel research will lead to that through better understanding of Chakra and matter interaction.

    @Heresy Is this possible? For clans other than the 6 starting ones to pop up? Either displaced in time at the Conjunction or subject to a spacetime ninjutsu test gone terribly wrong.

    No. The six that popped up are the ninjas that will be on the planet but you shouldn't discount branch houses growing out of them either from internal conflict or just plain promiscuity between them and the locals.

    The other thing to consider is that between local cultures and factions of warhammer I have a lot on my plate already and that's not counting the new nations I created for the southlands and what I'll have to do for Cathay and Nippon so thinking up cultures, stats and circumstances for new clans would drive me insane.
     
    Everything OK the quest is so silent?

    In any case, what I wanted to ask is whether we could unite some of the border pinces when we have settled in better and a few years have passed?

    Yeah the turn is coming and I give more updates such as previews of actions as I write them on the discord because I mostly phone post which is horrendously uncomfortable on SV but much more accommodating on Discord.

    The reason for the slowness is because I'm going the Torroar route and writing big narrative turns where your actions are described with scenes of things instead of me writing 'you did x thingy and got y reward for it you are winer' that would be boring for you guys and me, I'm aiming to post one big update a month, with lots of fun stuff in your actions as such the update is going to be big, bigger than the turn I posted and will give you lots of stuff to bite and chew on regarding your neighbors, characters and the world surrounding you. But you remind me not everyone is in the discord so I'll be posting the previews of actions I've given there here when I'm on a computer so that you guys can see how the turn's actions look like.

    The answer to your second question is yes, clan can become rulers of the area they live in a hegemony enforced through economic and military might but while you've taken a few small steps to start you have a long way to go before you can say the border princes are a place you own instead of a place you live in.
