Your tribe is now living along the shores of the Tiigii river with an apporximate population of 200 people. You support yourselvs mainly through agriculture and cattle ranching.
To the north along the river is a white colonialist settlement and a large copper mine run by corportations, to the east across the river lives the Danub tribe(Nuetral) along with a military base and several small settlements,
to the south near the jungles lives the Jajub tribe(Hostile) along with a booming logging industry. Finally to the west is the capital of Wazda(named after himself) and the main concentration of the generals military forces.
Money: $5000
You have 2 infantry squads(Poor) and one technical(Poor)
You have 5SU
Happiness 20%: (You're better than the other guy)

Roll a D20 for choose the name of your tribe and first action.

The Glorious tribe 'Mchezo wa jadi' will take back our country and give it to the people!

Oh, and we should totally upgrade that technical to average.

Captcha, do you want us to be the Orkeei tribe?

rolled 20 = 20

>>15658278
Actually, I like Captcha's idea. Orkeei tribe sounds better then translated Swahili

You are the proud Orkeei tribe fighters for freedom.

It will cost you approx $2000 to upgrade the technical to average.

One thing I forgot to mention in the rules. If you do not have enough supplies to send a unit to fight then you can downgrade their quality for free so that they can fight. Eg: You only have 2SU and want to send out a Superb infantry squad. The squad can downgrade to average to fight.

>>15658293

not going against a 20.

Maybe we should attempt to ally with and later integrate the Danub tribe. They are neutral and there are settlements there to get us more troops/support, as well as a base we can later raid to get better weapons.

Apparently Dr. Dakka's tribe are Orkeei.

Let's rock.

What is your first action? Upgrade the technical? Recruit? Send out a raiding party?

rolled 6 = 6

>>15658313
2k to upgrade? We're gonna needs some more Dakka... Let's go talk to our neighbors across the river, the Danub.

>>15658324
Recruit! Gather the young fighters and fill them with bloodlust!

rolled 13 = 13

>>15658324
Upgrade the technical!
Dig a Well and/or make a dock to get some fishing boats

>>15658324

See if there are ways to improve relations with the Danub. Set up some infrastructure to get us ready to fight perhaps, recruit some more supporters. Better to take a little time than to burst into a revolution half-cocked.

Yeah, we need to send someone over to have some words with the nobs to the east. Ally with their tribe so we can take on the ones to the south, and make one big happy family.

I think we ought to upgrade that technical. Modern cavalry, after all; a technical is a hell of a lot better than just having everyone march everywhere.

rolled 16 = 16

>>15658342
Make them a gift of fine parasols.

Improve our own village by making a small dock for fishing (and future naval force)

>>15658329
It will cost you $500 to equip one infantry squad with Poor weapons and $1000 for average. Higher quality is not available at this time

You have upgraded the technical.

You have successfully dug a well at no cost. It will cost money to expand it. Happiness +10

rolled 5 = 5

>>15658342
That's why we came to them. We're not too worried right now about the general, anyway, we're worried about those shifty fuckers to the south. Because they want to overrun us. And as soon as they overrun us they'll have everything we had, and they'll use it to overrun the nobs to the east. An alliance with these guys means that we're shouldering the main burden, overall, and we've got a warboss over here that can handle this shit. But we've always been on good terms with them and we would really like to keep on good terms.

rolled 7 = 7

>>15658361
>>15658337
Let's build the dock and upgrade the technical if we can. Send a nob off to the Danub, and watch those savages to the south.

>>15658337
Agreeing with this guy.
We need a firm infrastructure and agricultural base.

>>15658359
You send a diplomatic party to the Danub Tribe. Although they have no love for the General he has largely left them alone. They also have serious doubts that you have the resources to win.

rolled 6 = 6

>>15658366
What other options do we have to increase our peoples' productivity and happiness?

Let's hold off on upgrades until we've got everything, so that we know what sort of income and other options we have. It would be ideal if we could make a couple changes to our village to establish useful defenses as well.

rolled 4 = 4

>>15658366
Let's also expand the docks.
If we can get river patrol boats, then we can control the river.

>>15658380

We do need to find a way to get more money. However I don't think we want to tangle with the corporations up north yet, or the tribe down south.

rolled 2 = 2

How the hell are we going to build a dock? We're a LANDLOCKED NATION. There's no sea for us to have a navy in!

Any chance we are sitting on valuable resources (ore, precious metals/gems, oil)?

rolled 7 = 7

Dr.Dakka, what's the general's view on tribes murdering each other? If two tribes start murdering each other, will he give a damn or send out tanks to steam roll the two?

Question: What can we do to increase income and supply units?
Having a bunch of soldiers is fine and all, but we need a way to pay for them, and get upgrades.

>>15658391

River. We don't want an amada. But some patrol boats with machine guns? They could hit anywhere up and down the river without really being touchable.

>>15658391
We're on the banks of a river.
Depending on the size and depth of the river, we might be able to have docks and small freighter ships on the Tiigii.

rolled 12 = 12

>>15658391
>Your tribe is now living along the shores of the Tiigii river with an apporximate population of 200 people
Rivers mean we can quickly move troops from our village to the hostile camps to the south. maybe even set up a mortor to fire on them, and if they dont see the boat, they'll think the guys accross the river did it.

rolled 18 = 18

>>15658400

I acknowledge I'm retarded then. Docks are good.

But I still want to see what other options we've got before I throw my vote behind it.

>>15658394
He dosn't care too much as long as taxes are paid and you don't challenge his authority.
>>15658391
The river takes the logs from the logging operation to the mill in the next country over. You are land locked in the sense that there is another country between you and the ocean.

You have spent $1000 to build a dock the crew of the logging boats take notice and have begun to stop by your village for some R&R.

Currently you have $2000 left.

Does the General have Air support? If we are going to be building things and arming ourselves we might want to consider not doing this all in the open or think about some anti-air weaponry/tactics. Burning tires sends thick clouds of smoke and would fuck with there visibility. My cousin lent me that new American movie Black Hawk Down! and the tire thing seemed to have worked against them so why not the old bastard who dares call himself a general?

>>15658428

People on R&R would like to spend money. Perhaps set up some stuff for them to spend it on?

They won't have crap to spend their wages on at the logging site.

We REALLY need a way to get more money.

You pull together your resources and set up a brothel. It has been vary successful and is bringing in approx $200 a month.

>>15658505

Not going to fund a rebellion on it's own but certainly going to help. Nice to have a static income.

In exchange for the very first go in the Brothel, free of charge!

>>15658518

Maybe we can attempt to expand the farms to a level we can actually sell some of it? Or, if not sell it, provide some ability to support more population, which will lead to more troops.

Hey fellas I just met this cool looking dude, he said he was some kind of Smuggler or something. He's got himself some pretty good equipment and he said he could run stuff in and out of the country in his sweet Van.
Can we hire this guy? Might make some money.

What crops do we grow? Is there anything we could brew/distill into hooch? If so, brew away and sell that shit.

>>15658540
We have some farms and cattle ranches.
Maybe we should expand them a bit, set up irrigation works and water reclamation (if we can get foreign aid). The white colonialists to the north might be a good initial customer if we can produce lots of beef.

>>15658558

Yes. The white men will like meat.

If there's a Western Union and an Internet Cafe in Wazda, let's send a few guys to try their hand at pretending to be the deposed finance minister of the Colonial People's Armed Republic of Tiigiiland, with vast reserves of plundered wealth in a Swiss bank account, but no way to access them without a generous foreign cash infusion that will be quickly and generously repayed a hundred times back.

Haha critical 20!

You spend $500 dollars expanding your cattle ranches. They will earn you approximately $300 a month.

Gas costs are under supply units. You can buy 1 SU for $200. In general Supply units comprise gas ammunition and spare parts to keep units running.

2.) Obtain superb rifle as a sign of a change in African politics. Will also attract a better quality soldiers from wazda town.
3.) Gain control of copper mine. Use copper to fund state currency and banking investment in the community. (this is how you get money without spending it)

Foreign teacher doesn't HAVE to cost us anything.

Have one of our guys with better english skills go back to that internet cafe in Wazda and write up a letter to the peacecorps begging for a local teacher. Those hippies are suckers for stuff like that.

Perhaps we should send our average technical down to scout out the hostile tribe. See if we are dealing with swords or battlemechs. We don't exactly know much about them.

>>15658788

I figure the cost might come more from the facilities of the school that a teacher like that would be willing to teach at.

>>15658794
The 'cost' does come from the many concessions you will have to make and keeping the standard of living high enough to entice them to stay.

I think, for the minute, we might need to go with a local teacher. Upgrade later.

Otherwise we won't have much money at all.

I say we set up some kind of trap, like burning tires near some wreck, and if they come to investigate, we open fire from whatever cover is nearby, then swing around to flank them with men in trucks.

Optional: take them to the brothel and have the hookers kill them.

rolled 16 = 16

>>15658935
Shit roll, damn.
Better idea: do this, but get the money to them anyway. We can steal resources from them (looting!) but possibly avoid suspicion by sending it through another tax collector, and blaming it on some other tribe.

If we take them to the Brothel the hookers will get AIDS.

Well, they probably already have AIDS.

Whatever.

rolled 20 = 20

NO. Don't attack them, and don't happily comply.

Business as usual. Bitch about the increase in taxes, bitch because they take too much, look like you are about to fight back, then give in and let them have what they want.... We don't want them to know that we are planning something.

When you see discord amongst the troops of your enemy, be of good courage; but if they are united, then be upon your guard.

(Also, before you said the truck was for 300, but then yousaid we paid 500 for it. I was trying to haggle the price lower!)

rolled 20 = 20

>>15659115

Actually... this could work... We send our local Imam to mecca, and we extend invitation to other tribes Imam's as well to join him. It'd be a bitch to finance, but as the local tribes Imams all went on pilgrimage together, there would be a special bond there.

Imams are very important when it comes to the decision making in small places like this. It would be expensive, sure, but would gain us a ton of instant allies.

You speak to your Imam about a pilgrimage to Mecca and he agrees that it is about time that he went. He speaks with the Imam of the Danub tribe and the Imams from the small settlements and Wazda and they agree that a pilgrimage is a great idea. Plane tickets will cost $300.

There is some rumors from the logging crews that the Jajub tribe is gearing up for something. They are not sure what however but they are confident that the well armed corporate security will protect them.

Anyways holy war on the pagans?

Dont think we have the funds for that, and the Jajub would likely go on some sort of killing spree while we're gone. A holy war of their own on the muslim tribes.

>>15659252

It's not our character. It's the Imam and the others from a tribe.

So all of our troops and us/I? Will be there to defend out home.

>>15659252

We wouldn't be going, the Imam would, and OP said it'd cost 300. It's win/win. We'd still be around to prepare for any attacks, and naturally, win.

As for the Jajub tribe, if we have the money, raise an Average infantry squad. I'm not sure about offering our services to the loggers, because they seem to trust in the corporate security, but let them know that we'll be available if they need our help, for a fee.

>>15659356
We should have about $1600 left, after the plane tickets.
It costs $1000 for an Average infantry squad.

We pay for everyone to pilgrimage to holy mecca, and return to find this? These heathens deserve to be conquered and subjugated so that they may see Allah's true will!

>>15659753
While we might be able to use Tiigiiland's connection with China to import some Shaolin monks, it still takes time to produce a squad. It'd be faster to train and equip a more standard infantry squad than a Kung Fu squad.
We need to be ready to mount an attack on the Jajub tribe soon.

>>15659744
How about we don't get a teacher yet.

I mean, Steve ate up 1/10 of our initial income each month.
We should wait till we at least have $1k/mouth income.

>>15659786
I don't think that is a good idea.
There will be some religious tension .... not to speak of outrageous sum of money we will have to pay.

>>15659745
You have converted the weapons into supplies.
Your emmisary to the Danub is going well. They are outraged at the attack against their fellow muslims. They have promised to commit their forces into an attack. You have approximately a week to prepare.

Money: 100+600= 700

>>15659847
What are the tribal beliefs of our enemies?

>>15659847
How much to upgrade our Poor squad to Average?

But if we're going to attack, we need 6SU
1(Poor)+2(Average sqaud)+3(Average technical)

We should probably buy more SU with the money we have.

rolled 13 = 13

>>15659847
And the smaller communities as well.
If one of them has the supplies or connections for a heavy machine gun or recoiless rifle mounted technical, the base being the old truck we bought from the loggers.

>>15659786
Shaolin monks wouldnt fight in this context.

>>15659847
Find a suitable man within the village to help rally any potential troops who come from the other village to our cause.

Buy some average weapons with which to equip these troops.

Shamanistic animism

The Danub has offered to sell you supplies for the upcoming attack at a discount. $100 for 1 SU. This is a temporary deal.

rolled 14 = 14

>>15659979

We've got 700. With three SU at full price, and 1 at the discount, that's enough for 4SU

The major religion is shamanistic animalism. That means our jihad doesn't have to end with the tribe next door.

We are on a holy mission from Allah to carry out his will upon the earth.

We need to attempt to make contact with Al-Queda. They will bend over backwards supplying us with weapons with which to form a new muslim state.

>>15660010
I should clarify. The main religion of the nation is Islam with Shamanistic holdouts especially in the Jajub.
They are offering you up to 4SU at the discount. They cant spare anymore.
As for Al Qaeda. I'd really rather not go there...

>>15660010
>We need to attempt to make contact with Al-Queda. They will bend over backwards supplying us with weapons with which to form a new muslim state.
And have the attention from West, specifically USA on us?
Yea-no.

>>15658428
>Not that you know of.
Is there a way we could find out and how much would that cost?

rolled 20 = 20

>>15660054

Take 3SU at the discount, and use the other 400 to train average level unit.

>>15660054
There are plenty of African islamist groups you could contact instead, like Al-Shabaab.

Or, make up one for Tiigiiland. Al-Tiigiya?

rolled 18 = 18

>>15660127
and again, gain the attention of the US?

We'd be walking to our car to go pick up some milk at the store and WHAMO, missile strike.

Buy the discount SU

Make another technical with the truck

>>15660054
There are probably other extremist Muslim groups willing to fund us, presumably they would be easier to get hold of than Al-Qaeda.

rolled 18 = 18

>>15660202
you didnt get a thing i said did you?

>>15660108
Done you now have 6SU. 1 squad (poor) 2 squads(average) and 1 technical(average)

You do not have the time to turn the truck into a technical but it does make a handy battle taxi.

At dawn the attack begins. Do you have any specific orders for your troops?

>>15660237
Hit hard and fast. Don't stop to rape the women or children, Just kill all the menfolk. The women we can come back for later. Also, no looting or burning things. This is a terror raid. Anything they have we can accquire for ourselves later anyway.

>>15660237
No raping: Allah does not look kindly upon that.
No mutilation, either.

>>15660154
I doubt the US has the resources to deal with any/all Islamic extremist groups, look at the war in Afghanistan, I mean look at the trouble they're having dealing with the remnants of the Taliban in Afghanistan.

Remember the technical can be used as cover. Don't stop in the open or get surrounded.

If the enemies are primitives, ride around them shooting, they'll get tired. If they have firearms, stop, cover and fire.

rolled 15 = 15

>>15660261
>>15660253
Agreed, no raping or mutilation of the enemy. Get in, show them the error of their ways and praise Allah.

>>15660237
If you get there and find you outnumber them significantly try to talk them into your way of thinking.

Your attack proceeds well with the combined forces of you and the danub tribe greatly outnumbering and out gunning the enemy. You sweep through the village and blow past any resitance. By the end of the day the entire tribal militia has surrendereed. Suprisingly your troops were well disciplined and there were no reports of 'extraneous' activities. Casualties minimal. You divided up the loot 50-50 with the danub. You can sell it for $1500, Convert it into 7SU or gain a discount on your next 3 units. Alternatively you could return it to the Jajub.
The Danub chief informs you that it is up to you to decide what happens to the Jajub.
One of your scouts has informed you that a black helicopter carrying several men with guns and a white man in a black suit have landed in your village. The man is from Harrier/Schultz Mining Corp and he has a buisiness proposition for you. General Wazdas men have seized the copper mine to the north and he wants you to take it back. He can pay very well.
More good news: You have had a good harvest + $400
Money: $100
SU: 0SU
Happiness 40 (WE WON)
Danube Tribe: Now Friendly
As a small note: I have to leave for about 2-3 hours so I have given you a lot to discuss. If the thread is gone by the time I get back I will make a new one tommorow at 13:00

Money:$500

rolled 11 = 11

>>15660457
Here's why I think we should do.

Sell half the weapons for cash. ($750), convert the other half into SU. Try to convert the Jajub to Islam and find their leader. Tell him that you will show mercy upon his people should he no-longer be our enemy.

rolled 15 = 15

If we're going to do it, we need to address two points

1. We need an argument against Wazdas. Hard to attack muslims and break Imam/public relations without good reason
2. We may need to share the load with the Danub, and the rewards too. We could keep the money for business and negotiations while looting equipment.

Then there's the Jajub. I say we send them to the logging company as primitive explorers and get something out of it. Then probably hire a local cleric to Convert them to Islam.

rolled 1 = 1

>>15660509
And see to it that we now get any bribes, payouts, or anything regarding the Loggers.
>>15660457
If 'The Man' wants that to happen, then he's going to supply us with his companies uniforms, equipment, and as much intel that he has about the situation. We want plausible denyability.

>>15660697
Agreed that we want plausible deniability.
We're not just some third-world tin-pot dictator (even if we are); we're savvy enough to have a subscription to Soldier of Fortune and read Tom Clancy novels.

rolled 3 = 3

>>15660861

And quote from famous military tactitians too, apparently.

>>15661198
Of course, Dr. Dakka of the Orkeei people studied abroad before becoming the tribal leader. He's smart like that.

>>15660457

Can we look into double-crossing the Mining corp? Or triple-crossing them, if that works out.

The problem with Wazda isn't that he's a tin-pot dictator, it's that he's a tin-pot dictator that we're not buddies with. Whereas, either way you look at it, the mining company are foreigners. How about we have a chat with Wazda about making it look like we've driven him out of the mine, we get paid and split the profits. Then, a week or two later, Wazda rolls back in.

Then, we go to the mining corp and ask for more money and support to bring down Wazda, and while he has to deal with whoever else they send in, he'll not be collecting taxes, and he'll be weakened for us to strike for glorious freedom!

rolled 14 = 14

>>15661555
I dont think that's a good idea.
The Corp at least can get us jobs and western tactics training. And its always a good idea to have friends in the west.
We push Mr. Suit for 2-3 men to train and drill us with shooting and everything, and then our Poorly armed troops at least have the experience to equal up to Average. We'll have our militia on par or better then the general's regulars.
'Mr. Suit, you want your job done cheap. that's why you've come to us. However, you still want the credit for your higher ups if this set back reaches them. You give my people some of your men, to train us, to drill us like the armies in the west, you get us the uniforms of your company, then we will get you your mine back. Not only that, you will have a good friend across the river, which is always nice to have."

rolled 10 = 10

We could always wait a while. Let the new mine workers come to our brothel or anywhere else until we get some intel and we're properly suited. Call the Danub on it, so we can completely close the river against retaliation.

However, we will press The Man for equipment. I don't want to find choppers a day later without at least RPGs and mines.

It's good to see that the mecca plan went well.

Let's make the Imam our second in command. How much would it cost to build a mosque for our tribe?

Also bump and vote + for the thread on sup tg

rolled 14 = 14

>>15662258
We should let the Imam convert the Jajub tribe, let them see the error of their ways. And also a mosque would help happiness a lot, and maybe adds a bonus to recruitment? I'm down with that.

>captcha sez: world's orksment
We must try to conquer the world, then? For the really really long term plan?

rolled 13 = 13

>>15662388

He could end up a martyr. And he is now a valuable person.

Anyways we could build a shared mosque for our tribe and the Danub could increase our relations even more, but if they are too far away then we could just build one for ourselves.

bump for the inevitable return of OP

bamp

Alright I'm back (with a vengeance).
Your Imam has agreed to try and convert the Jajub people. Total conversion will take a while and the Imam will need some guards, but he is a very talented speaker. He'll get the job done.
The corp manager wipes sweat from his face. He is not used to being without air conditioning. "Look I just the mine back in our hands by the end of next month (3 game turns) or head office is going to have my balls on a plate. I'll pay you $10000 to get the job done and give you contacts to the PMC we contract with.(Good Quality equipment will be available) if you can do it. They can train your men to be better fighters. (Eg Poor becomes Poor+, Average -> Average+)
As for the scheme Wazda himself won't go for it but some of his men might...
A mosque will cost you $500.
You convert half the loot into money and half into supplies.
Money: 500 + 750 + 600(Brothel,Farms, Ranches)
Supplies:7
Happiness: 40 (Things are looking up)
1 squad Poor, 2 squads Average 1 technical Average

rolled 18 = 18

>>15663004
That actually sounds pretty good. 10k to recapture the mine AND a PMC contact? Let's build that mosque and upgrade that poor squad to Average. Let's leave an average behind to protect our priest.

>>15663004
Wazda wouldn't go for it, but maybe the person he put in charge of the mine might? Or perhaps, his second-in-command?
We need to find out if we can get this done with a minimum of fighting; doing so would be well worth splitting the profits.

>>15663004

GLORY TO THE ORKEEI

Anyways build the mosque, and if possible share it with our new friends the Danub if they are close by.

Provide the Guards to the Imam also when he is finished he should train some new ones and make sure they are literate so they made read from Quran from there teach them the tribe.

We should also gain some religious knowledge from the Imam so we can have something extra to our profile.

So that's 9SU per turn if we stay with out current army. That means 27SU total, and 20*200=4000 to get the army into total war.

Minus the mosque we are looking at 5500 for this operation and we haven't even bought special weapons or training.

I'm guessing we need some Danub help for this, even if they only distract the guards or get us intel.

I feel uneasy double crossing the Corp. Triple Crossing? So we betray the corp, then betray the General/Troops then go back to the corp?

OP can we get some details on the Jajub settlement?

We could get some good will if we give there dead a good burial.

rolled 4 = 4

>>15663214
Following from this, we will at least need to get another technical and a heavy/support squad, perhaps some night gear for our gunners.

Requesting prices and what intel can we gather from our religious contacts and neighbors.

>>15663079
You spend $500 to build a mosque and $700 to upgrade the remaining poor squad to average.
Money: $1150
Happiness +10
Your scouts conclude that the forces stationed at the mine are much larger than yours. You will not be able to take the mine with your current forces.
The village elders request some money for improvements to your cattle ranches and farms.
You leave and average squad with the Imam to protect him while he converts the Jajub.
A secret envoy is dispached to the commander of the mine garrison, a Captain Malka. He is interested in a deal, for 50% of the cut he will pull his troops out of the mine and they will roll back in a month later. Do you agree to this deal?
Breaking news! The UN have launched a peacekeeping mission in the neighboring country to deal with the outbreak of tribal war.

>>15663296

Anyone up for the idea of taking it then backstabbing him by holding it anyway?

rolled 15 = 15

>>15663324
I like that better than backstabbing the Corp, they could be powerful allies in the future.

The real trick will be building up the forces necessary to hold the mine from a superior force.

Use the Danub see if they would be interested in a shared profit?

>>15663347

Take, agree to move out peacefully to his troops, get the first strike? Maybe set up an ambush on the people marching back in?

>>15663324
I'm more for an entry level job with the government deal.

He comes back, and we go through the motions of negotiation to make us a decentralized outpost to tax the mine (we can let whitey get away with some more product when we need favors).

This way, we get inside the government as an allied force and we get to keep whitey's contacts around. Obviously, Malka gets its cut until we can assure he is of thrust to help REVOLUTION.

>>15663365
>>15663347
>>15663324
The problem is that if we do this, no one will ever trust us.

>>15663394
Or we can get BOTH to trust us.
>>15663387
This way, Mala looks good, everyone gets some profit, and we don't have to make as much expenses.

Ultimate goal Jihad? Unify islamic africa and invade IBeria?

The Danub chief tells you that as much as he would love the money his forces are too weary from the battle with the Jajub to help you.
More Breaking News!!: The war in the neighboring countries has intensified.
I'm going to need more consensus on what to do next.

I'll conform with having ties to the Emirates and islamic powers so as to be stable. Region is already islamic anyway.

>>15663409
That only works if Wazda is willing to accept that kind of deal rather than having full control over the mine.
Maybe he has other buyers lined up for the copper. I'll need to see if the plan is feasible before I support it.

>>15663575
OP did tell us that he doesn't care as long as he gets taxes. We should probably consult Malka on it, see if he can deliver.

rolled 2 = 2

>>15663478

Offer the Colonel 100% of the contract to help us fake the deaths of his men and then leave the country.

We hand the mine back over without expending any blood or resources, and increase our fame as fearsome fighters against the Wazda regime - while getting PMC contacts from the corp and not antagonizing the colonials near by.

The way I see it, we've solidified our support with the tribes near us on the river - now we need to get in good with the mine corp and the white colonialists in town - which is doable as Wazda is taking their shit.

>>15663596
>Wazda only cares about taxes
Are you sure? I thought that concerned only inter-tribal conflict and what we do.

OP, we need more information from Malka about whether we can settle this peacefully through bribery and just paying extra money.

Though keep in mind that the Company wants complete ownership of the mine, and is paying us so that they don't have to pay taxes to Wazda.

rolled 1 = 1

>>15663604
I support this. This'll let us get the job done without expending our resources.

And besides, the job was just to take the mine, not defend it. It's up to the colonialists to hire more mercenaries to defend their mine from the inevitable reprisal by Wazda.

>>15663626
>paying us so that they don't have to pay taxes to Wazda.
Good point, were they paying their taxes or not. If they weren't, we are in a vicious circle and I don't want in. If they were, we can negotiate.

>>15663604
You offer your deal to Malka. "Are you kidding I live the good life. I am just trying to make some money on the side. Come back to me when your serious."
>>15663704
They were paying taxes until one day Wazda up and decided to 'nationalize' the mine.

Ok so Malka can't be trusted for revolution purposes.
I say we pay him to leave, make him tell us where will he be staying to negotiate, and after we get the mine, we point the PMCs to the Captain they have to blow up.

Don't forget to vote for the thread on the sup tg archive.

Anyways could we get info on the Jajub

rolled 5 = 5

>>15663832
We could build up our forces in 3 turns and try to take the mine conventionally.
Or we could agree to the deal with Malka, then ambush him when he leaves the safety of the mine and kill him and his men. We'll need a large force and lots of supplies to do so.

I want to go with killing him after making the deal; approximately how many squads does he have?

>>15663937
Can you post a link on the archive please.
>>ascended hrefic
Damnright I have ascended first archived thread.

The Jajub are a primitive but numerous tribe that have only recently moved out of the jungle. In total they number 300 people. Their religion is shamanistic animism but your Imam is working toward converting them to Islam. They are primarily subsitance farmers but make a fair amount of money by trading with the logging company Currently their attitude toward you is Unfriendly. You can try to integrate them into your tribe. They might try to resist and the old beards in your tribe will absolutely hate it but they would bring much needed manpower and resources.

>>15664077

See if we can get some cultural unity organized there, find ways to make them like us more before we try to integrate perhaps.
