Vows of vengeance: a fantasy civ quest

[sunrise]

With the shrinking food supply the tribe decided it they needed to deal with that first before they could continue exploring, there was a long debate about what to do but the council decided on clearing more land for the farmers. Worries about the tribes water supply lead to the digging of wells to ensure the tribe always has access to clean water. And a group of tribesmen decided that the way to solve the tribes food shortage was to become full time fishers.

The year started with a series of storms forcing the boats of the fishers to stay ashore followed by a long mild summer resulting a a large grain harvest. The hunters had a great year and ended up talking about the need of better bows to bring back the largest game.

Bjorn having recovered from breaking his leg the year before suggested forming a group focused on working with wood for all the tribes building and logging needs.

You have gained a bonus for doing a lot of woodworking(building/logging) actions in a short time.

The bonus from Focus on logging instead can also be gained on a 95+ logging or building roll. If this choice is combined with a train woodworkers in the normal actions you gain 10 wood.
The better bow action can also be unlocked by the study(woodworking) action. If this choice is combined with a train woodworkers in the normal actions you get 5 better bows.

The tribes fishing fleet had incredible luck this year, the fishing started out great and stayed that way all year long. But there greatest catch was not fish but spotting one of the Lion's sister ships: the Bear. This ship had its home port at Visby on Gotland, a island in the Baltic sea. The ship followed our fishers home to Oslo where they where greeted with a feast.

The crew of the Bear and its captain spend days at Oslo as they partied and our blacksmith preformed repairs to their ship and gear. The men of the Bear described Visby as a village with about halve the population of Oslo and that they mostly fished for there food supported by a small number of hunters. They were surprised that there was farming at Oslo and the sheep served at the feast was the first they had in five years. The leader of Visby is a Cleric named Egil.

Now you know the location of Visby you can propose a plan for the future of the village they may not accept the plan and it might take more actions to reunite both villages.
Choose a Plan:
[] [Visby] Keep 2 villages ruled from Oslo.
Gives a free organize tribe action next year as the leaders meet to decided how the villages will be ruled.
[] [Visby] Reunite at Oslo
Gives a free sailing mission [Baltic] as the ships move the tribe at Visby to Oslo.
[] [Visby] 2 independent villages working together.
Allows a additional action to be taken this turn by the tribe.

As the fishing remains great in the months after the Bear returns to Visby, the fishermen decide to take some time of from fishing to build a pier to help load and unload the ships visiting Oslo.
Late that fall a pair of hunters disappear in the woods west of town and after a search is launched by all of the tribes hunters. They return the next day bringing the sad news that both hunters where killed by wolves. In response the towns blacksmith produces iron arrowheads to help the hunters in the future. There is also talk that the tribe should produce longbows for the hunters.

This year saw the start of our plans to reunite Visby and Oslo with the Lion sailing to the Baltic. Its mission had mixed results, a group of tribesmen joined them on the trip back and they provided a barrel of iron for our blacksmith most of the tribe at Visby was undecided. After a few days a compromise was reached: the next year Egil would visit Oslo aboard the Bear and a group of tribesmen that wanted to finish there current projects would travel to Oslo on that trip.

As both tribes met again at Visby they compared tales of the storm that scattered the ships heading north and they estimated that there where only 4 other ships besides those that ended up at Oslo, Visby or sinking in the storm. As the Lion made its way south from Visby they found a hunting camp on the Swedish shore that was last used several months before.

Oslo itself had another year of good fishing and hunting but the sheep broke free and got into the grain fields. It was decided to have a group focusing on woodworking and logging lead by Bjorn. With the help of this new group the tribe spend the year logging and building houses and for the first time since the founding of Oslo the tribe ended the year with a stockpile of wood. The blacksmith forged 10 iron spearheads and 2 groups of tribesmen where armed with them.

Based on the current number of the tribe(5 groups of tribesmen, one of woodworkers and one of warriors) you have 2 action available. All rolls are with a D100.
The tribe takes one action.
The tribe has 2 food and with average rolls and no food producing actions taken will start the next one with 0 food.
With the cleric visiting next turn you will get a bonus on Organize the tribe this turn and the next as that action takes place over 2 turns(action taken in one turn, vote in the next).

Battles take 2:
There are 6 places a group can take on the field of battle.
These are far left flank, left flank, center left, center right, right flank far right flank.
The bonuses from weapons and skills for all groups at one of those places are added together.
each group provides 4 hit points to the place they are assigned to and if a place takes 3 hits the weakest group there retreats.
the groups facing each both roll to determine who wins, the loser takes 1 hit(unless prevented by armor).
for each 40 difference in the roll the loser takes another hit.
If there are 2 groups of attackers this becomes for each 30
If there are 3 groups of attackers this becomes for each 20
If there are 4 groups of attackers this becomes for each 15
If there are 5 groups of attackers this becomes for each 10

When a decision is made that leads to a battle the players can decided on where they want to place there troop and when to retreat.
During the first round of battle only ranged weapons are used, and only groups with 5 or more ranged weapons will attack.
A cleric hero will be able to heal one hit of one group every two turns for a maximum of three times per year.
When one side retreats the other gets one last round of attacks at -20 as they chase the fleeing enemies.
If the fight is for the last village of a group there will be no retreat.
This will result in max 12 rolls per round of battle and less rounds due to the greater damage done per round.
Any group that has taken a single hit will heal and replace the dead before the next year.
Any group that has taken a two hits will need a year to find and train replacements
Any group that has taken a thee hits will need two years to find and train replacements
Any group that has taken a four hits will die

The Lion spend the year looking for the hunters who used the camp they found the year before. As they arrived there in the spring the camp was still abandoned and a search of the surrounding woods gave no results. Harold decided to leave a small hunting party behind a sail on to Visby to resupply and exchange news. The lion spend the summer scouting the Swedish coastline without any result and decided to pick up the hunting party and return to Oslo once the salmon run in the river had ended.
It turned out that the hunters had left their ship had become nomads and only used the camp for salmon fishing a few weeks each year and where struggling to survive.
The hunters talked about encountering a band of goblin that numbered between 50 and 100 goblins that caused them to flee south a month before. Only the need to stock up on salmon lead them to return to campsite and they where happy to go to Oslo where they would have strength in numbers.

The luck of the fishers seemed to have changed this year with the boats returning with less fish then most years and the result only returning close to normal in the fall after two new fishing boats where completed. The hunters had troubles with a large number of wolves roaming in the woods around Oslo and spend most the year hunting in large groups resulting in a year where they returned with few kills.
Part of the tribe worried about the food production and those worries only grew as the Bear arrived with a new group of tribesmen. Only a good grain harvest and the return of the Lion with two groups of hunters saved the tribe from having to reduce the size of the meals this year.

After weeks of debates at Oslo the tribe agreed that the following plan would be used to govern the tribe:
[] [govern] A elder council will lead us.
Gives a elder council, providing for all rolls at the settlement:
+5 to all rolls to determine the damage of a disaster(1-5 rolls)
+10 to all rolls to determine a bonus of critical(a 95-100 roll)
+10 to the roll of all study actions.

Can be gained by an action available once a settlement has a large meeting hall.

[] [govern] We shall be lead by nobles
Turns a single group of tribesmen into nobles
Nobles eat one more food, can join actions and get +10 to organization rolls, +10 combat rolls and +5 to hunting rolls.
Nobles only use bows and swords, and the group from this action will start with 10x longbows.
Nobles want noble housing that takes a action to build and only houses a single group.
Getting nobles reveals a mechanic based on having 2 of the same type of specialists.

[] [govern] We will gather and debate with the entire tribe
Unlocks the faction system early(instead of at 30 groups or instead of a organize roll with DC 60, reduced by 1/2 of a failed roll).
You get the Human cooperation innovation
The large scale meetings will take up time resulting in the tribe eating an additional 1 food per 5 groups.
Ending the meeting can be done if a settlement has nobles or an elder council and requires an organize roll with DC 60, reduced by 1/2 of a failed roll)

The faction system:
The tribe will take 1 action per 10 groups rounded up(1-9:1, 10-19:2, ...).
There will be one faction per type of specialist and all but the nobles get one power per turn per group.
The nobles will get 2 power per group per turn.
There will be a tribe faction getting total groups/4 power per turn
Each faction will take an actions linked to what kind of actions they get a bonus for.
Each turn the faction with the most power takes a action and losses 1/2 their power until all faction actions are taken.


Human cooperation:Gain additional actions based on the tribal happiness.
Happiness:
below -2 you loose 1 action
between -1 and 2 no actions gained.
between 3 and 7 you gain an action
above 8 you gain 2 tribal actions


Based on the current number of the tribe(6 groups of tribesmen, one of woodworkers and one of warriors) you have 2 action available. All rolls are with a D100.
The tribe takes one action.
The tribe has 2 food and with average rolls and no food producing actions taken will start the next one with 0 food.
Actions can be taken more then once and results of the first can be used in the second.
Building a shrine this turn gives a bonus due the presence of the cleric.

The state of the tribe is updated.

 

[sunrise]

I am making a change to the post above and removing the minor action system with:
Human cooperation: Gain additional actions based on the tribal happiness.
Happiness:
below -2 you loose 1 action
between -1 and 2 no actions gained.
between 3 and 7 you gain an action
above 8 you gain 2 tribal actions

And removing the blacksmith as a separate action and adding him to the list of groups/heroes that can do actions.

His description would be:
The blacksmith Hero can join any building, ore mining or blacksmiting action but no other actions.
He will give +5 for building actions and +10 for mining/blacksmitting
It would give a bit more flexibility on what number of tribesmen are useful for actions but the you lose the separate action for him.
To compensate ill will tell you where you can get iron ore near Oslo if you have him help build.
[] [blacksmith] Keep the current mechanics.
[] [blacksmith] He can help us build.

 

[sunrise]

The debate on how the tribe should be governed took most of the winter before they agreed that the tribe would unite at Oslo and that four time each year, at the shortest day, the longest day and both equinox's the tribe shall meet and debate what to do in the following months. As part of this plan the Lion was send to Visby to move all that lived there to Oslo.

Oslo saw a year with great fishing and decent hunting and farming results and a new field was cleared to increase next years harvest.

The warriors went into the forest to clear out the wolves living near Oslo. Lead by hunters wanting revenge for those killed by the wolves two years before, they killed or drove off all wolves living within a week Traveling of Oslo. And the decision was made to train more woodworkers to make use of the newly secured woods where they cleared two new hunting trails.
During the fall the warriors made one more trip, this time across the river to the swamp to provide an escort as the blacksmith who found bog iron in there.

In the fall the Bear and Lion returned from Visby carrying all that lived there, the villages vising boats and 10 wood.

Based on the current number of the tribe(5 groups of tribesmen, two of woodworkers, one of sailors, one of warriors and a blacksmith hero) you have 3 action available. All rolls are with a D100.
The tribe takes two actions based on the faction system:

Faction	Current power	Power gained per turn	Action they will take
Warriors	1	+1	Craft longbows
Farmers	2	+2	Build a barn for the sheep
hunters	5	+5	Craft longbows
Fishers	6	+6	Build Pier
Sailors	1	+1	Repair a damaged ship
Woodworkers	2	+2	Study woodworking
Tribe	5	+5	Increase food production and happiness

The group with the highest power takes an action and its power is reduced by 50%.

The tribe has 2 food and with average rolls and no food producing actions taken will start the next one with 0 food.
Actions can be taken more then once and results of the earlier ones can be used in the later ones.

Once the harvest was in the tribe spend a month logging trees for the building projects in the years to come.

Oslo saw another good year of fishing and it seamed that the fishermen where getting better each year as once more they provided most of the tribes food. The hunters spend part of the year training to use there new longbows and had another slow year. The farmers argued that the small harvest was caused by the lack of fertilizer and that we should increase the number of sheep to increase the grain harvest.

The tribe woodworkers constructed a shrine this year making many of the more religious members of the tribe happy. they also increased the amount of houses at Oslo and now more then halve the tribe lives in houses instead of the crude shelters made when Oslo was founded. Running out of wood they decided that logging would be done not just when needed for new projects but all the time.

Worries about the report of goblins in Sweden lead to the decision to train a second group into warriors and the making of plans to improve the fighting abilities of the tribe.

A year of Fishing and Hunting saw the tribe collecting more food then any year before and the size of the tribe grew with the new members forming a new hunting party.
The newest hunting trial was in a part of the forest with multiple small streams and the hunters spotted large herds of deer at those streams.
The tribe also talked about sending the hunters along on raids to provided additional bows to the fighting strength of the tribe.

The fishers and woodworkers spend a week talking about how the fishing at Oslo could be improved and decided that the best way to do it was to construct fishing ships. Back at Oslo the breeding program for sheep resulted in the birth of a second flock of sheep.
