Action 1 & 2: Try to get the people and government used to interaction (2 of 4 years) Because of the Emperors will to come out of isolation, and because it is happening so rapidly, the people of Torphan are a little upset. Everything is happening so quickly and so abruptly that most people dont have time to get used to it. Because of this, the Emperor has decided to slow down for a while, to let people get accustomed to the change, before proceeding any further. Primary Determinet: Trade Secondary determinet: Relations Actor: The Emperor Weight: Double (+1) Difficutly: Hard (-1) Secrecy: None Modifiers: + already starting to come out of isolation + some people are ok with it, but not all + 4 years for people to get used to it now, possibility of even more time depending on results + the Emperors status over the people - people upset Action 3: Fortify the northern part of Torphan (2 of 3 years) First, I will explain why Torphan would be concerned with the war and how they know. Torphan is concerned with the war because they have a god on their side (thats right, right?) and because of their movements. They represent a threat to the empire and torphan would want to protect themselves. Torphan knows of the war and its progress because of the trade route. While trading, they are gathering a little info about whats happening. I'm pretty sure that the war would come up in a conversation somehow. Primary Determinet: Fortification Actor: The Army and builders Weight: Single Difficutly: Hard (-1) Secrecy: None Modifiers: + large army to spread out along boarder + forts and cities already established + lots of materials to use Action 4: Work on Navy (3 of 3 years) The Ground forces of Torphan are already strong in numbers and force, but the Emperor is now turning his attentions to his navy. The navy is medium (and powerful) but has been neglected for years because of the isolation and geography of the empire. Because of how it is situated, Torphan has had very little need for a very powerful navy. The emperor has decided that torphan will need to find ways of trading and exploring more widely across the area. But, because of the situation, there is much to do to make it so a navy would be worth the effort. Primary Determinet: Construction Actor: Crewmen, engineers, etc. (pretty much anyone with a job in torphan) Weight: Single Difficutly: Hard (-1) Secrecy: None Modifiers: + Skilled workmen + No immediate threats + large supply of needed resources(i.e. lumber, metel, etc.) ---------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, send mail to celandra-off@phoenyx.net.
