Who Needs the Empire? (Successor, MLP Nation Game

I'm just concerned everyone is voting for a Trait that is literally just a name if that makes sense? Like what exactly does adding chef to the name do to the modifier?

basically Gordon Ramsey, it was not my intention to make the mc get mad at every minor thing but rather based it around cooking. for instance, say someone messes up a recipe that the Mc was making, this is when the trait would kick in and the MC would give them a earful.

Iron Hand is a good name, though im surprised you didnt go for Iron Claw given the raptor theme
 
Sticking your talon nail on a hot cauldron is no where near as impressive as using the actual hand with the fleshy bits.
 
By the numbers, Dockside Guidance wins overall. On the other hand, the competitor Dino Ramsey was split between two versions.

Mindris got counted twice in the tally for the two versions, and since it had more votes than either version I'll give Dockside Guidance the tiebreaker. Update in the works.
 
We can just learn to make our smaller size an asset in our personal time and learn to fight. Dirty preferably.
 
Here's the thing, and why I didn't like the plans with half a dozen traits: We don't have time for a lot of involved leader training, we have to go from barely above stone age to competitive with the freaking minotaurs and zebras pdq. Having a leader with a million traits and hobbies doesn't actually help because most of a leader's job in this framework is recruiting and managing the advisors who carry the bulk of the actions each turn. Having a trick or two to make our personal actions have some bite or flair is all well and good, but our main guy here is not going to be given much time to grind his stats or master his dao. Hopefully we can avoid dynastic issues and free up some actions that way, but we're probably gonna be trying to invent the working vacation even without that pack of problems.

He's also first and foremost a leader. Leading from the front is all well and good, but it's not exactly the best plan for the people you lead. Especially when the numbers of your people are so low every death is a significant loss.

Sorry about that. Glad to see the Gordon Ramsay one didn't win. As funny as the angry chef could be, it probably would have made diplomacy very difficult if not impossible in a lot of situations.

yeah thats understandable. that being said, i like to think that the choices we didn't choose will end up being background characters, so somewhere out there is a dino chef screaming at a new cook

So, think there is any lost treasures to be found out at sea? Pretty sure discord might have sunk lots of goodie's during his save of rule whether it be at the start of or during his chaos age.

Seems likely. Discord wasn't exactly malicious, but at the same time it would often be hard for his victims to tell. Worse, Discord was flighty and often got distracted before "fixing" things like he might have intended.

Sunken cities, fake sunken cities, shipwrecks, various types of leviathan, magical resources, and all that.


The update is progressing... Slowly, which is mostly my fault despite a few family obligations here and there. I have attempted to recruit @Happerry for assistance though it is unlikely to yield much in the way of results so... We'll see.
 
Dromaeid Divers would be a good thing to train. Diving for clams, crustaceans, and loot. Like seagulls plunging for fish.
