Turn #31, Fall of Year 3
Setting sun.
Part 2 of 2
I recruit another 5
Jotun spearmen and a
Scout in Pythium, and another
Scout in Eribon. I raise 20 provincial defenders in Barra. Temples are to be built in Kepess and in The Promised Land. These preparations drain the treasury of 800 coins.
Having elminated the unrest in The Promised Land, I raise taxes there back to normal, while lowering the taxes in Barra to zero to quell the unrest caused by this most recent battle.
The Skratti Tunne forges another
Clam of Pearls, at a cost of 10 water gems. The Norna Skade casts the global ritual
Gift of Health, for which I allot 41 nature gems. Two of my Seithkona forge
Spell Focuses, expending 10 of my astral pearls. And one of my Enchantresses forges a
Sceptre of Authority, which consumes all 5 fire gems in the treasury.
Ualgo moves to The Promised Land on his way westwards to build a castle in one of my western border provinces with Man/Vanheim.
Tahmar with a dozen fresh Jotun recruits, heads out from Pythium to Hoburgdorf.
(Due to a misclick after I did the screenshot Last turn, he failed to move. He's doing so now. Not a significant error, as it turns out, since the seige of Ashikaga is over.)
Grymis, Bove, Rod, 3 priests, 65 Jotun spearmen, 9 Vine ogres (as bodyguards), 4 Jotun huskarls (as bodyguards), and 3 Jotun axemen (as bodyguards) all storm the Ashikagan citadel. The sun is, permanently, setting on the Ashikagan Shogunate this month.
Jorgun, my wyrm, moves into the much-disputed Rim Mountains, where he'll feast nicely upon the double-handful of indy knights and fanatics waiting for him.
Turn #31 plotted movement (1280x1024)
Please note the location of a R'leyh province at the far right center of the map. Thin blue lines are moving scouts, thick ones are troops and/or priests.
