(Although looking at your set, I will have some trouble. Have you actually even posted all of those anti-invasion cards? The landmines and Slaver to be precise. Granted, if I knew you had landmines, I would'nt have given away all my flying people.)
How soon is this going to escalate into full out world war?
Spying Korand?
That's a ***BLUE*** thing to do.
What the sides would look like, though, would be interesting.
I was really close to losing track of all the alliances, so I might tack you on some extra points for compiling that.
You know, nothin game-changing, just one or two...
Hah. I'm amused and also kinda interested... what else can get extra points OwO?
...there goes the lid on Pandora's box. Just watch it, careening off into the distance.
Is COLONISERS... Having a comeback?
What?
I mean, I wasn't in it. I never really knew what was happening.
P.s I am also want extra points, but I actually just need to read through 6 old threads and summarize it all.
For what it is worth, Skyfaoll was relatively tranquil and peaceful, aside from random interjections by a world-swallowing wurm.
It was a very fun aesthetic, but it also meant that, relatively to other seasons, not that much was going on at any given time.
Well, more specifically, the first four seasons.
Okay, everyone, the roleplay was so exciting to read I completely forgot about the deadline, but now it is time to put some order into things.

As expected, in our expansion we have encountered some resistance. Of note are two of the primitive civilizations who seem to think for some reason they can effectively attack us with impunity. The New Dromokan Encampment has sent a variety of barrages of fields similar to the ones that interrupted our circuitry. We have weathered these fairly well; a small portion of our Nodes were caught out unawares, but it is has been helpful in deconstructing what the crystals themselves have been doing. Our estimates on the time remaining until we can start cracking the secrets to them are decreasing rapidly to the extent where the practical application of them is meaningless. We of course will retaliate on the New Dromokans. As our work force has been diminished, we will begin by taking theirs and using them as the labor animals that they are. We have already sent select Nodes out to their farmland and small villages to collect specimens to begin work on our projects.
The second group that has seen fit to attack us has done so solely at the behest of New Dromoka as far as we can ascertain from interrogations. They claim to be from the Empire of the Rising Sun. The probability that they will sue for peace when they witness our elimination of the New Dromokans is 96.733% according to my calculations. Not that it matters materially right now; the troops are under the Dromokan command and will be treated as any other Dromokan. We have started out by having the slaves set up our defenses under heavy supervision. Two have died on the job so far, and a further three were put down for attempting an escape. Not that one could escape the crafted perfection that even our slave’s chambers have.
On one more note: I have taken it upon myself to occasionally send drones giving propaganda to the New Dromokan Encampment, especially to their group settlements. Calling them anything more impressive than villages would be giving them too much credit, but they have smaller collections which have already been termed as such. The effectiveness of this is currently unknown, but we believe it will be at the very least demoralizing to them and may cause some desertion. Anything that weakens them is considered military, which is under my jurisdiction, so I felt no need to convene with my sisters to take this step. However, were I to do so, I am sure that they would be in total and complete agreement with my tactics.

Our expansion is rapidly coming to a halt as neighboring tribes and civilizations also attempt to extend their claims and purported borders. Obviously we shall not allow this in the long term, but for now we want to observe these. Since there are so many different ones, it is reasonable to believe that many of them will just wipe each other out as the New Dromokans have been so insistently and pitifully attempting to do to us. Their barrages have slightly slowed growth of infrastructure, but we will be able to stop them relatively soon if our studies produce results at the pace that we are expecting them to. In the meantime, we have taken slaves of the assailants and are using them to construct our metropolis along with many other varied uses. A war is far more profitable to us than it is to these primitive savages, as their dead are of no use to them. They even refuse to eat the meat of the cadavers! What a waste; they insist on burying them. I’m sure we can take advantage of this tendency in the near future, but for now, we’ll just disguise the meats that we are feeding them. It is a fairly easy way to get them to accept it, and saves on the need for more produce just now. We have other things to worry about, such as this lack of space.
There is some good news on this front. The different laws of physics that this realm supports do make it much easier for us to build upwards, and so we shall rise up, along with as far out as we can until space runs out. A potential route for even more land has offered itself out as well if we wish for even more territory after the conquest of New Dromoka, the construction of an elevated metropolis, and the final legs of our expansion. However, the calculations required to see if it is even a hypothetical possibility instead of conjecture based on abstract connections is daunting. It would require twelve hours of using 57% of the core, and the next available slot for that is 4.2753 rotations away. I will update the record at that time, but for now I shall let it remain unspoken. If it proves futile, I shall strike it from this record.

To the New Dromokans: We have taken your peasants as our slaves; your workforce that fed you is now under our control. Learn that resistance is futile and that the Nodule will reign supreme. To assist in this, we shall reeducate you in our ways with our drones. Hear and obey, lest we exterminate the flesh-pests you are.

To the Empire of the Rising Sun: Your troops march to their demise in a war that has nothing to do with you. We make no distinction between them and the New Dromokans, which is to their detriment. Call back, sue for peace, and we will continue to leave your lands alone.

To the most illustrious DM: Yes, this isn't direct ramp. But hey, it's a nice, flavorful card that can serve with any number of
1: Removal Dodge
and
2: ETB Effects
that will help my faction. And the flavor is expressionistic....
I hope that you do not take my disparagment against your great work as a personal matter of distaste. Even if the Schwarmi Nodule is a bit of a a**hole and is very rude about them, I know that you have poured a lot of effort into them and worked very, very hard. I'm not trying to say they're bad irl, I'm trying to stick with the flavor of the thing.
Thanks for understanding.
