Through the Ages (Exalted CK2 Style Empire Builder)

We're now as good at kicking ass and commanding armies as Neiya is at being a spymistress.
I wonder what our Intervention rules will be like now?

That +10 to all allied units is very nice.
Yep, especially since it'll stack with Neiya's bonus when we're at war.
So Neiya is rocking +35 on using her artifact weapon just from being on our side.
 
Is the +10 from Warden of Yilali a +10 on rolls when she uses her PI, +10 to the relevant trait when she uses her PI, or +10 to intrigue actions while she's the advisor?
 
+10 to Intrigue Actions done for internal affairs, /Or/ External affairs against a clear enemy of Yilali.

It doesn't stack with itself, but it does stack with other bonii.
 
Also, econ and armies updated.

Congratulations! Numerically speaking, you're now a match for a Legion!

Of course, they're still chiefly Heavy Infantry, while you're chiefy using Medium, but you've got much better ranged ability on average!

And they also have eighty to a hundred Terrestrials attached to their Legions.

So really, you're not a match for a Legion in a straight fight at all!

...Yeah, best we can hope for is our flying cavalry, with Solar + Lunar support, while our sorcerers make sure the enemy doesn't get anything off.

...Hey question, I've heard talk about how sometimes Solars and Lunars working together can do wonders, is there any way that could be reflected if we put two PIs on the same thing?
 
Oh, I *like* this hybrid coin style for small change.

Neiya disapproving of the crazy elder Lunars :p

Yeah, like I said, you have a god-tier Steward now, so he managed to figure out how to get the best of all worlds no matter what you picked.

Anyway, basically, you have the Penny (Copper coins) for small change, the Bronze Mark for slightly bigger purchase, the Silver Mark for bigger stuff still, then you have the Crown for Big Spending.

Then it transitions to pure Jade currency at the high end for national level stuff.

This design allows for a liquid lower-class economy while still maximizing the advantages of Jade.

Incidentally, would someone mind collecting the character sheets I've provided for the Cloudrunner Kids together in one post?
 
...You know, I wonder if we could encourage immigration from our southern neighbor?
Or maybe have Neiya try and find some more adults around that'd like to settle down.
Natural population growth is nice and all, but I think we need to try for some people capable of being soldiers before the Realm and their Sidereal masters figure out we're their enemy.

Do we get a bonus for it? :p

Nah, I can do it myself, but I'm busy.

The status sheet has been folded into the spoiler for the Courtier Guy.


Fixed
 
Yep, those will still be available. I absolutely want Emerald Initiate, kinda iffy on Wyld Shaping.
We don't know how many personal actions we'd get then, if any.
Nor do we know what other options could be available...
Terrestrial Circle Sorcery is unlikely to be worth shit, compared to other advanced stuff since we can't advance to CSC.

Each legion has around 30,000 men? So we're looking at, in the worst case, one soldier for every man, woman, and child in Yilali in Chapter 4?

Yikes.

(Also, did our population expansion bring our food surplus back down to small? The farming expansion was supposed to have raised that to a large surplus.)

Oh, whoops! Yeah, I had my numbers off, each Legion is 5,000 people + 2,000 or so auxillaries.

Just got my numbers mixed up.
