Thank you very much to everyone who sent me money (Caelum, Abysia, Bandar Log). I received even more money than anticipated, meaning everything went extremely smoothly this turn. I'll likely have extra cash the next few turns until my fortress finishes, so if anyone needs financial assistance, speak up. (Sent excess money to Raiel this turn).
Action Report:
GK succeeded with no new afflictions (finally), handing me my first water province.
Expansion army trivially destroyed 12 horse archers with their 3 commanders. Found yet another Arena (that's 3!).
Conjuration 1 successfully researched.
Expansion army is now codename: Pipsqueak (due to the presence of non-dai-bakemono in the army).
Marching Orders:
GK to 344, Lake Doom. Despite the ominous name, its defended by a pitiful ~10 atlantian militia, should be a cakewalk.
Commander Takaaki begins building a fortress in 271. Venerable ancestor Ai has seen fit to bestow upon him the rank of Rikugun Shosa.
Prophet Dolgad heading directly east with army codename Pipsqueak into 273.
F3W2E2D2 mage moving to fortress location (to search, build lab, build temple while the fortress is building).
New army created under the command of independent commander Omarbe, codename Endzone. Endzone is moving SW into 288, which will almost complete my capitol border province collection. Omarbe is commissioned with the rank of Rikugun Taii.
Independent light cavalry commander Ualgo moves to capitol to receive his officer's commission.
Research on track for completing Conj 2 this turn.
Purchases:
Fortress
12 dai-bakemono archers
Bakemono Sorceror ('mage')
Independent light cavalry commander
Thanks to the unexpected generosity of a third party (ie, beyond the two donors I was expecting), I actually have 150 cash leftover (unsurprisingly, exactly the amount donated by the third person). I'll be sending 100 along to Raiel, which should let him use all his resources. =)
Mercs:
I put a bid of 50 on Dagan, the renegade sage. Don't mind being overbid, but the extra research certainly wouldn't hurt.
