The Old Eurení
Once your people spanned the entire coasts of the Amercilo sea, but that is but a memory for your kind. Through the years of different masters your lands have been teared apart and put together more times than you can remember. This has resulted in three distinct factions of Eurení.
>A. Lunarkia: The Islanders of the southern Amecilo, you find your strength in your ships and the ocean that carries them. An isolationist tribe you have set yourselves apart from your former brothers on the mainland in both culture and faith. Led by King Mithrades your people seek to dominate both sea and river.
>B. Pontera: The mountain men of the south, devolved from the more cultured Eurení your people were forced into the hills and woodlands many hundred years ago. Only coming to prominence under the emperors of Hekusa who made you his royal scouts. After his fall to the Amerí, and the latter’s fall to time, you have finally been united under King Heoras
>C. Eure: the swamplanders of the west. In the marshes of the Tyranno river’s delta lives the most ancient of Eurení tribes, primitive and unyielding you are the few of the old way who have escaped the ravages of time – and more advanced neighbors. Led by the grand priest Vergas your people are forced to carve out a living among the rocks and mud.

You are the people of Lunarkia, led by king Mithrades II. Even though he is not much more than a chieftain he has taken the title of king to mark an end to the era of uncertainty under the former chiefs. Once, your capital city Calpurnos was a trade metropolis, now it is not much more than a village built among the columns and statues of old. Of all the crafts that once built this city not many remain with you. In the city stands two old stone building still fit for use, a partheon to your god Mychos the Ibex rider, and the Kings Hall. Although the kings hall is nothing but an old auction house for mules it is still more magnificent than anything you can build.

You may be primitive but you are not stupid. Some of the more resourceful of your shipbuilders have tried to copy the old unusable ships in the harbor, and with some improvisation managed to recreate the design. On the orders of King Mithrades these men are put in charge of constructing ten new ships.

The people of Calpurnos gather at the docks to witness the maiden voyage of the new ships sailing to explore the northern Island of Rydikos.
The ships sail swiftly across the strait, although some trouble was had with the maneuvering. On Rydikos no structures of significance were found except the remains of some sort of tower in an otherwise crumbled town. Exploring further from the coast proved a success however, while no trace of living humans were found the wildlife was richer here than the sailors had ever seen. + Rich hunting grounds (Ibex, Seals, Birds, Donkeys)
Moreover the men noted that some cliff faces held white crystals in them.

Your builders have been attempting to rediscover the building techniques of old. The chisels you have fashioned are effective on the softer stone found in the lowlands but bend and break if used on the harder stones from the mountains. During the smelting of copper you have also discovered that the softer stones turn white and porous in the fire, these white stones can be mixed with water to create mortar. +Lime stone masonry, mortar

The work in the mountains continue for your people. After your discovery of slaked lime you have been experimenting with burning the harder mountain stone. You have discovered that throwing cold water on the hot stone will cause it to crack. Using this new knowledge, large fires are built agains cliffs before water is thrown on them. The fractured stone can then easily be cracked further by hammering it with rocks, making you able to carve out small mines. Although this allows you to extract even more copper than before, the unpredictable fracturing of the stone will not allow you to create the smooth stone blocks used in olden days. Expanding further upon this practice have resulted in the perfecting of barrows, shovels, and stone hammers for this type of mining.

While barter economy is still the standard on the countryside, King Mithrades orders the minting of coins bearing the images of Mychos the Sun-Rider and his sister-wives. Despite being virtually worthless in themselves because of your extensive copper production, they will serve to standardize the economy. If any trade routes were to be established this could prove be an important economical development.

The five crystal spheres found in Taxoss, also called "The Mychos Beads", had yet to reveal any practical use, for the moment only being used as relics by your cult.

We should establish a marriage ceremony between a man and woman who have already undergone a coming of age cermony. This ceremony will cement their union and only between two people, because even though Mychos has two brides, we are not Mychos.

Coming of age ceremony for men would be that described in >>3412331 and for women would be braiding a fishing net, kept for the rest of her life as an heirloom.

The union of man and woman among the nobles have in recent years started to be held in the Temple of Mychos. Commoners have adapted this in a way more accessible to them, having priests present for the ceremony. This new development has put a more religious emphasis on marriage amongst the Lunarkians. For the sacrifice at the end of the ceremony, many young grooms have started taking to the hills to personally hunt down an Ibex ram or cougar. This prestigious hunt, signaling the passage into adulthood through marriage, quickly spread through the populace. The outcome of the hunt was generally considered an omen for the prosperity of the marriage at hand.
Moreover, the fishing net - a vital item for the survival of your people has become a typical gift from the bride to the groom, each knot signifying their union under the eyes of Mychos.

Although your people do not have any horses, the concept of riding and horse dawn carts is not unheard of. Some of your commanders have even suggested trying to recreate the fabled chariots of the Amerí, your former conquerors.
To do this however you will need to tame the wild donkeys found on Rydikos.

Other than that the domestication is under way and tame donkeys will soon be able to be bought back home. Two small huts and an enclosed pasture is constructed next to the tower ruin where the donkey keepers will reside for now.

During a recent shipment of donkeys from Rydikos, the foreman of the farm sent word to the miners requesting some prospectors to examine the white crystals. A crystal was cut out and examined, whereupon it proved to be salt. The small farmstead on Rydikos was immediately expanded on with three more houses and a mining operation was soon established to procure this valuable trading good, and conservative.

The Lunarkian people have grown very fond of their ships, indeed all things related to the sea is a passion for your people. Stoic by nature, even the most composed of your people looked upon the sea with a playful gaze. The rudders and steering mechanics were in recent years improved upon further and five new ships were build. The need for tin, and the eagerness of the more adventurous finally swayed the more careful among the nobles, and another expedition was mounted. This time the coasts to the southwest was the destination of the explorers.
After reaching the Cape of Tin, the ships sailed southwards, following the coastline. By afternoon they came to the town of Sarieus, the capital of the Sesceon invaders. Sarieus and your own capital of Calpurnos both share the same traits of Amerí architecture, although Sarieus is much smaller. At the docks you were well received and after hearing around on the markets, where both furs and tin are sold, it turnes out that both your salt and your copper are very sought after goods. From the other merchants in the city you also hear about the Sesceon city of Caspilya, located further southwest along the coast, between the lands of Afraeo and the Eurení tribes of Anteria.

Give me three rolls for setting up a trade route with Sarieus.

A trade route is established with the merchants of Sarieus. Although not the most lucrative trade deal, with tin being a much rarer resource than copper; you will have to supply them with eight pounds of copper for every one pound of tin. Nevertheless this is a good start for your merchants and will enable continued bronze production for your people.

Through your now regular contact with Sarieus you have gotten a better understanding of the history and stateof Afraeo. In the twentieth year of your independence, Afraeo, the last Amerí kingdom outside of their ancestral homeland fell to the invading Sesceons. The kingdom itself exists no longer as a political entity, having been split up by numerous chieftains and freemen. King Vittcar of Sarieus rules the lands southwest of the city, mostly inhabited by a mix of Amerí and Sesceon people, while the rest of the land is a mosaic of tribes. Every year the lords of these lands meet to settle disputes and honor their gods.
A few of our nobles are sent to Sarieus to more formally inquire as to the savages on the Cape of Tin. King Vittcar tells them how the chief of those lands, his kinsman Sneadh, has started taking to pirating - warning them of sailing to close to his coasts. You can tell that he is frustrated by this and you suspect this is taking a toll on his own trade in the region.
Your diplomats take this chance to offer military aid in exchange for rights to a colony.
>A. A joint subjugation of the pirates
>B. Offer to deal with them yourselves

If they are willing to help us and allow us to establish a small port + mining colony, that would be acceptable as well. Basically we want colony rights and are willing to put in as much effort as that requires and we won't refuse help.

Highest roll counted, as this is not a very hard choice for Vittcar.
>>3417619

Vittcar exchanges some murmurs with his interpreter and can hardly contain his delight. Sending foreigners of to kill his enemies, all for the price of some barren beaches and rocks that sheep don't even care to graze. All this without being branded a kinslayer.
Your diplomats return home to bring word to King Mithrades II, who orders the forces to gather at Calpurnos by mid summer.

I'll be back either later tonight or tomorrow and we'll start with this war.

>>3417653
Faction Name: The Nafpigós
Description: A loose, somewhat guild like, association of Shipwrights. A number of large family clans, connected by their profession, long standing friendship and cooperation. While they aren't the only ones building ships, they are certainly one of the biggest groups in that profession.

-60 working men plus their families
-Small lumberyard
-A decently sized shipyard, with multiple workshops and the capacity to build two ships at once.

FP: While the Nafpigós have long indirectly profited from trade, by building and maintaining the ships used to ferry around goods, they have not actively partaken in such endeavors, until now. It is decided, that in order to profit more directly from the growing trade, we will construct and man two of the large 50 men ships for our own use. While fitted with rams they are mostly meant for transport and not primarily for combat.

The expedition to Taxoss was a failure. Bunliarr and his met set out hoping for spoils and glorious adventure, only to run aground on some reefs with their larger boats just outside the western shores, sinking one of them in the process. No men died, but many wished they had when they had to explain the affair back home.
>>3417676
The only place in your area suitable for launching and harboring larger ships is the marina in Calpurnos. The shipyards there, however, are owned by the wealthier nobles of the city and they see no reason to allow the construction of ships in their facilities that they would not own themselves.
>>3417684
The Ble Kalokaíria attempt to expand their mining efforts into the mountains. The further up they go, the harder it is to find any water to use for the fire-setting, making it hard to mine this area with your limited technology. Some ores were found but could not be extracted and examined.
>>3417709
In your land one beach in particular, is very suited as a natural harbor. Protected from the south by a reef, and the east by an island, this strait could give safe harbor to many ships. A small dock is constructed along with a magazine. Although you don’t own any ships of your own you hope that this inlet will prove useful for your trading efforts. (pic related)

The forces of Lunarkia have gathered at Calpurnos and prepare to set upon the pirates of Sneadh. King Mithrades II and the admiral of the fleet, Dardanus, will lead the army. With the ships gathered 500 men can be deployed in a first wave, and 800 more can be ferried across later if need be. The nobles, or Stathosí, of Lunarkia have gathered on the flagship to discuss strategy.

A few scouts are sent south and east in an attempt to locate the main settlement of the pirate chieftain, all ordered to report back in two days.
The eastern scouts report back that a small port town was spotted on the eastern side of the cape, it's harbor empty. No word has yet to return from the southern scouts.

With our fleet holding in the Arelian harbour, more scouts are sent out to discover the pirates' location. Two days later the scouts return, the pirates are sailing north and will pass just between our easternmost island and the mainland. One dozen ships, each bearing 30 men. A heated debate
>A. Now is the time to strike, surprise them in the strait!
>B. Let us wait for them to return home, attack them when they're land-bound!
>C. We should send men to attack them from the land while we gather more men and attack from the sea!
>D. Other

>>3420061
>A. Now is the time to strike, surprise them in the strait!
Maybe we should send 100men on ships around the small island to flank their ships in the straight. If the flanking force is to slow, our main force will still outnumber them significantly. Should the flanking maneuver succeed, few of them will escape and we will hold a significant advantage.

>>3420067
+ the men that can find no place on the ships should wait on land, if some of the pirates try to abandon their ships we can easily slaughter them this way.

>>3420061
>B. Let us wait for them to return home, attack them when they're land-bound!

They have been at sea for who knows how many days. Once they return home, we can sack their city, take their ships unabated, and add their harbor to our growing empire.

>>3420061
A, surprise them in the strait. We have the home turf advantage here, if we can take them out now then taking their land holdings will be significantly easier.

>>3419928
>A. The pirate ships must be located in the south, we need to destroy them there!
50 ships vs a dozen easy, overwhelm them!
Add on: Use 15 out of the 50 ships to ferry as many warriors to sack pirate town.

>>3420108
We only have 20 ships; 15 carrying 10 each, and 5 warships carrying 50 each, plus a variety of smaller boats. All in all our fleet carries 500 men.

>>3420122
If we were to engage on the open seas, it's expected we would sink them. Would it be possible to board the ships and take them for our own?
