Lords 9 Years Per Turn: As of Turn 120. Lords 9 will switch to 3 year turns. That means 60% tax rate.

No Attached Files (When eMailing Orders): When eMailing your orders in, please, please don't use attached files. Half the attached files I get are undecipherable, and they contain viruses. Use the eMail format provided by myself or Ed Efsic.

Unspecific Attack Orders: If you attack a region and there are walled cities are fortresses in the region, your army will Assault these unless otherwise specified. You must capture these if any of your attacks are to work. Secondly, you cannot attack to make tributary someone's homeland, you must pacify it.

Hunting Action: Code (H) Base Action Cost: 8 months (at least). Hunting requires a leader and a land army to perform. The army is going into a region and hunting wild game for their product: food, fur, ivory, oil, etc. Each region type produces a different yield:

Maximum Yields
Terrain Type Agro Res. Points Gold Points
Cultivated 1 0
Intense Cultivated 1 0
Wilderness 3 1
Steppe 2 2
Tundra 1 1
Mountain 1 1
Desert 0 1
Jungle 1 3
Island 1 0
Oasis 1 1
Sea Zone 1* 0*
*Some Sea Zones may produce an addition 2 Agro Reserve or 2 Gold as well. There are certain fishery and whaling zones but these do move.

In all hunting actions, each region's yield will be multiplied by the following factor: 10% x d6-5+modifiers.
The modifiers are: +Leadership of Hunting Leader.
+1 for each 10 units, max 10.
-Gpv.
-RRV (or 5 if none).
+1 for each additional 4 months.
-1 for each 5 PWB in the region, drop fractions.
-5 if the region has been hunted in the past 10 years.
-30 if the region has been depleted in game.

There are ecological costs to Hunting. If a region get hunted in twice in 10 years, the game will be depleted for 50 eyars and all further attempts to hunt will yield nothing. Sea Zones won't suffer from Hunting until the industrial era.

Oceanic Movement: All ocean going leaders and navies travel on coastal sea zones that border your own nation and those of all trade partners at the rate of 1 month per zone. Movement on all coastal sea zones not bordering your nation and your trade partners is 2 months per zone. Monsoon arrows will speed up travel by a factor of a half. Sailing against a strong current counts an additional month. Sailing into hostile waters (H code in the sea zone on your maps) costs an additional month. Travel on all mapped open ocean arrows and inter-island arrows is 1 month per arrow. Travel on non-mapped or partly-mapped open ocean arrows and inter island arrows is 4 months per arrow (as you are mapping them). These movement rules nullify the rules introduces around Turn 59 of Lords 10.

Nautical Stats Investments: All non-Renaissance (Tech 8) nations may not invest in Nautical Stats: Conduit Limit, Trade Range & Navigation. Any gold or NFP will be saved if attempted.

AGRO Harvests: I have adjusted the randomizer to fluctuate harvests about 33% either way. This should reduce the incidents of really bad harvests.

Maximum Nautical Stats: Here are the maximum levels for each of the nautical stats:

Tech Level Navigation Trade Range Conduit Limit

THE KINGDOM OF HURSZIA
Gaspar III, King of Hurszia, Grand Zhupan of Pethion
DIPLOMACY: Styria(a)
The walls of occupied Milano and Ravenna were built as high as they could go. New troops were mustered too. Unfortunately, Igor Japroy was one of the worst combat leaders around. So he and his 11,000 knights, outnumbered 6 to 1 were wiped out. Without the siege experinced and good leadership, all the Po Valley was lost. King Gaspar paid little attention to the failing warfront. He married a princess in Styria and spawned.

THE HOLY ROMAN EMPIRE OF THE RUSSIAS
Sonya, Czarina of Great Russia, Empress of the East
DIPLOMACY: Dobruja(f), Vladimir(ea), Crimea(t)
Martha Sapelivy suffered some desertions from her army. She then received a mysterious anonymous letter promising riches, lands and title if she rebelled. She tossed the missive into the munching jaws of her Iguanadon. New troops were trained at Tver and were brought to increase her army numbers thanks to the work of Sergei Sobchak. The army awaited while the Dutch attacked their way towards them (Saxony, Obodria, Pomerania...) Battle was met in 1545 at Kassubia. Neither side got the upper hand until the Huang marshal Zhiang died. Martha withdrew to Prussia with her dinosaur and some troops. Seryei Sobchak had been captured by the Hollanders and was killed. Boyaress Sapelivy took command of the Chinese troops and along with her own reacted to 'unseasonably warm' Ilmen to stop the Danish amphibious invasion. The Danes were too numerous, the Russian-Chinese had been weakened by the Dutch and the hot weather (the Danes wore sun screen). The survivors withdrew to Novgorod which quickly became like an oven and a strange banshee song began to wail:
"Oh, some like it hot, but I like it REALLY hot! Hee Hee...
I'm Mister Green Christmas.
I'm Mister Sun.
I'm Mister Heat Blister.
I'm Mister Hundred and One.
They call me the Heat Miser.
That's what I am.
What ever I touch
Begins to melt in my clutch.
I'm too much!"
After the Danes applause. A nasty bombardment began along with a passive siege and blockade of Novgorod in 1546. The Dutch completed their conquest of Kassubia and then took Prussia too. Isolated Lausatia revolted.

THE FREE COMPANY OF THE RISING SUN
Tsubigea Kiryu, Ronin Captain
DIPLOMACY: Silesia(nt), Sorbia(nt)
The Ronin captain, Tsubigea Jumin, made his move at last. He and his samurai-cossack host rode through south Russian lands to Kiev where some Russians offered their services. Then he forced tribute from neutral Goryn, then Danish Volhynia and Sandomir, ignored Silesia, defeated Meissen then sat on Sorbia. None of these lands worshiped the ancestors or the special dieties, something must be done about that.

THE ROMAN KINGDOM OF ANATOLIKON
Herakles, King of Rumania
DIPLOMACY: Hellas(ne), Crete(a), Peloponnese(f), Kyklades(nt)
Herakles married off his sister to the elites of Peloponnese while Sparta grew to 3 Gpv. This helped to unite the peninsular land to the Anatolikon. The Armenians sent the many chests of collectible Ghaznavid coins which helped to build public works in Hellas.

THE KINGDOM OF ARMENIA
Nisibis, Shah of Armenia
DIPLOMACY: Edessa(t)
Stefan was wounded at Aleppo but Tiverhios took his place and used his siege artillery to bombard the ramparts of Antioch. They only had six months for in August 1543 a great big Fatimite army atttacked. There used to be 10,000 engineers, 10 mortars, 230 cannons, 39,000 cavalry but 282,500 Mamluke horsemen, 240 guns and 20,000 mercenary infantry massacred them all. Stefan died. Tiverhios escaped the death grinder.

West Africa Mercs: 20mi, 20mc, 10ma

THE UMMA OF ISLAM (YORUBA)
Asuor, Sword of Islam
DIPLOMACY: Niete(ne), Galam(nt)
Prince Rucat and the entire Umma jihadin and 30,000 cavalry rode the north coast to Oujda. They planned to force tribute but needed to capture the walled city. The passive siege of Saf Oujda didn't work because no warships blockaded the port. So Oujda was let off the hook. Rucat then attacked Cheliff but refused to assault the fortified positions there either. Cheliff too was let go of. Since he could no longer leave his troops in hostile regions, the Umma cavalry went with Rucat through Shmalid land. The heir only got as far as As Sidrah.
At home Oyo and Takrur became cultivated. Bouma and Volta became 8 Gpv cities, Cheysuk and Maza became 9 Gpv cities. Parq'rh was rebuilt along the River Niger in Ife. Khalem got a road stop called Ola. Galam was fully converted to Black Muslim and spontaneously (because Zetonj had bad directions) became non-paying tributary. A factor for the STIS was successfully financed in Gao.

THE HIMRAD SULTANAT OF DARA
Azucentia II, Sultana of Ngazargumu, Lady of Dara
DIPLOMACY: none
The latest vizier, Ji'fe, took the Millenium Jihadin to Faras and waited for the slow Imamist troops to arrive. She and her general Hanunumar and Mulah Gayne watied with the main army whcih had suffered some mutinies resulting in mass desertions. Finally in AH 1006, the Ayatollah arrived at Faras and accompanied the Himraqat in the latest attack against the Ha'besh. 74,500 Himraqat rough riders, 235 artillery, 25,000 hired warriors, 80,000 holy bashers and 250 siege towers invaded Kordofan defended by 50,000 Coptic longbowmen, 30,000 Amharan knights and 215 Abyssinian cannons. The Copts were outnumbered two to one and were munched up in the meleé. Only a handful of knights survived and they abandoned the province. This allowed the Himrad troops to sack the city of Sitona. Ibtissam took the Napata slaves to complete the postal raod through Kerkoure and to upgrade the Kreda-Salamat road to royal. The weather was rather chilly and there was even snow in the ground. Mulah Sihe'd'r lent 150 guns to the Mbundu savages at frigid Nia-Nia. He returned home after a detour (probably to find a good warm coat). Faras became Atarikalamid Muslim. Thebes rebelled due to external pressures. That allowed the STIS to take over both ends of the Fatimid-Himrad trade.

THE IMAMATE
Ayatollah Khomeni XV, Protector of the True Children of Islam, Guardian of the Shining Path, Imam
DIPLOMACY: none
The young Ayatollah returned from Gagnoa to a rebuilding Parq'rh to raise some new infatnry. These plus some Millenium Jihadin marched through the vast Himrad lands to Faras. There Ben Wudad led an attack against the Ethiopians in Kordofan. It was a successful effort. Khomeni XV moved on with 50,000 jihadin cavalry and 137,000 jihadin spearmen to Palestine by the end of AH 1006. An abbey was built in Kordofan.

THE OVI PANTRAPY OF MBUNDU
Okonkwo II, Pantrap of Mbundu, Lord of the Fell Gates of Khatovar, The Last True Afro-Pagan on Earth
DIPLOMACY: Lunda(a), Lozi(c)
Yet another ice age affected the Mbundu lands and the entire Kongo watershed. Meerkats became Snowkats. Warthogs got shagging fur and became called Cavehogs. Baboons actually had hair on their butts. After picking up 150 Himrad cannons (ice had to be removed from them every morning), Bwana and 29,500 zebra cavalry roughed through the snowbanks to Ankolye to raid. 160 artillery and 60,000 infantry waited for them in the bitter cold. The raid was aborted. As the party shivered in their Nia Nia camp, a wailing sound began to make words:
"Twenty, Ten, Five Below! Let it freeeeEEEEEEeeze!
I'm Mister White Chirstmas.
I'm Mister Snow.
I'm Mister Icicle.
I'm Mister Ten Below.
Friends call me the Snow Miser.
It's what I do.
What ever I touch
Turns to Snow in my clutch.
I'm too much!"
The STIS invested in Kanyamagufa.

DA HUANG WESTERN NAVY
Bo-Ro 'Run Away', Marshal of the Ocean Sea
DIPLOMACY: none
Lua Sie was assailed by at least three different murderers. He was killed, mutilated and burned. The navy suffered from many fires. Then there were many desertions. Nothing got done. After a couple of years, Bo-Ro took over and had the navy (about 150 ships now) go to the Canary islands. There were iceburgs in the Kongo Sea, making navigation troublesome.

East Africa Mercs: 40mi, 20mc

THE KINGDOM OF ABYSSINIA (ITIOPYA)
Zanditu II, King of Abyssinia, Negus Negesti, Anointed by Jah, Lion of Judah
DIPLOMACY: Berbera(c)
Leon and Abenner colonized Nubia to (2/2) Coptic. They then responded to a Himrad attack in 1546. They lost. In the freezing south, Barachias foiled a Mbundu raid in Ankolye. The population got anxious losing all those battles.

SHIRKI AT TIJAR AL IFRIKI AS SHARK (STIS)
Hanna al Hiddad, Chief Executive of the East African Trading Company
DIPLOMACY: none
Merchant factors were built in Gao, Alexandria, Benghazi and Tunis. Chirop'tera became a cartel city. Luxor now has a branch office.

THE FATIMID CALIPHAT AL QAHIRA
Inulla az Zaur, Malika al-Arabiya, Lady Caliph of the Ba'athist Muslims, Keeper of the Martian Secrets
DIPLOMACY: Madina(c), Yemen(ne, promises alliance if Fatimid comes to their aid)
Al Barim with Buda Horri led 130,000 infantry, 31.500 jihad cavalry, 47.000 engineers, 25,000 jihad swordsmen, 175 artillery, 50 mortars to the walls of Ziba. There bombs were exploded while the Ghaznavid and Spice Company defenders tried to hold off the storm. The city was retaken handily and the Spice Company cartel city office was shut down and nationalized (the economic effect this time was nil). At the same time General Buba Horri and Princess Inulla with 266,000 cavalry, 6500 elite cavalry, 240 artillery, 30,000 mercenaries overwhelmed the Armenians, beseiging the Lubnan city Antioch. All the defenders were wiped out. ON the heels of these two victories, all the armies gathered at Palestine. Part of them had to go back to Misr. The remainder awaited the arrival of Millenium armies. None had arrived when late in AH 1004, Ghaznavid and Huang armies attacked Jordan. Along with 25 field forts, the Fatimid army led at this time by Bubba Horri, Lasik Khadafi and Princess Inulla had 166,000 cavalry, 6500 elite cavalry, 31,500 jihad cavalry, 10,000 singing mercenary cavalry, 30,000 infantry, 12.500 merc infantry with drums, 25,000 millenium infantry, 47,000 siege engineers and 240 cannons to face off against 250,000 Afghan riders, 17,500 Chinese elite cavalry, 22,500 Chinese elite infantry, 9000 Chinese elite pioneers, 140 elite Chinese guns and 18 elite Chinese siege cannons at Azraq Ruins. Battle was a stalemate early on but the Egyptian troops held on to turn the tide when the great Ghaznavid charge was shattered. In the second pulse, the Fatimid cavalry flanked the Afghans and began to cut down the Chinese specialists. Panic spread throughout the invader ranks and soon they ran, but there was no where to run. The Egyptian cavalry patrols had them surrounded so all the attackers were cut down. Azraq Ruins was a tremendous victory. Inulla and the veterans (half the troops) returned to Palestine to brag their battle prowess. They told the first group of Millenialists (Himraqat Jihadin) what they had missed.

AL ARABIYAH AL LUBNAN
Ilkwan, Rais al Walad al Ibrahim
DIPLOMACY: none
Thanks to the Fatimids, Aleppo was restored with the pressure taken off Antioch. Deriq died and a regency was set up for his young son Ikhwan.

THE ARANIB EMIRAT OF YEMEN
Khari Aranib, Emir of Yemen
DIPLOMACY: none
A bunch of Sianic transports showed up by the coast of Yemen making rude noises. They disgourged 32,500 troops which clobbered the 13,000 defenders. These strange (but Buddhist) invaders laid a passive siege on Sanaa (ignoring the coastal fortress0. Khari and his supporters were hoping that other Atarikalimids would bail him out.

THE LABANID SULTANATE OF BASRAH
Yusufri ibn Alimusa, Amir as Sideh, Sultan of Basra
DIPLOMACY: none
Yusufri called a mass conscription and built some boats. Then with his 5000 jihadin infantry, they sailed to Misr where they set up a government in exile. Guba begged for money at Brana but the Wilayi ignored him.

THE AHMUDID EMIRAT OF BAGHDAD
Goudfari ibn Shluki al Ahmud, 'the Grinning Totem', Emir of Baghdad, King of D'oh
DIPLOMACY: none
A camp fire led to the death of 10,500 men (it went out of control). Shluki still had enough troops to do his stuff. He and his first force rode down river to Abadan and pacified the mutinous land. Khuzestan and Mand were exacted tribute. Now down to 50,000 cavalry, Shluki invaded Hormuz and demanded they become Sunni or else. 33,000 angry Black Muslims came out from their homes to fight. Casaulties were heavy but eventually Hormuz and As Sidrah was placed under a heavy Sunni Muslim jurisdiction. In AH 1004, Shluki passed away at Baghdad. Boy Goudfari needed a regency.
Al Bikil found himself fighting the natives while he colonized Shi'a Diyala and Jibal and Jewish Kipchak. The Ghaznavids were allowed to build a road from Hamadan to Tehran going to Now in Tabaristan. A rebellion in Hahmar failed. The Luristan did uprise and threw out the garrison.

THE SHAHDOM OF SARKHAGISTAN
About 44.000 elite cavalry, 50 artillery pieces and 10 siege cannons from China came by Kulsary and destroyed the port fortress of Inshak. Sa'id al Aman didn't care. A year later at 1006, the same army (though slightly less in numbers after fighting some wild cossacks) attacked the new homeland of Yayik and easily occupied it and its city Kohul. Sa'id al Aman fled into the steppe taking his secrets with him. The 450 year history of the Sarkhagishah came to an end. Khuttal was conquered by the Ghaznavids. Ferghana, Khokhand and Urkel became neutral.

DIPLOMACY: Tukharistan(ne), Jowzjanan(c)
Generals Nakbin and Kirha plus Prince Is'mail advanced to Dulaym and took temporary control of the Chinese army. Confidently, they attacked neutral Bostra and made it a protectorate (with Palmyra depopulated, Bostra became the chief throughfare between Palestine and Mesopotamia). They waited for about a year for the Chinese leader to arrive and take over his troops. During that time, Ziba fell and the Armenians were smashed. All word had been lost about the Huang Western Navy. But with 250,000 knights and 72,000 elite Chinese troops, the Yamini were confident of victory. But Jordan changed all perceptions. At Azraq Ruins, 336,000 Fatimid soldiers, many of these units formed during the day of the Great Empire stood against the Ghaznavid-Huang force. Allah was not on the Afghan's side. The entire Ghaz-Huang army was annihilated and only Nakbin escaped to relate his sad tale to Bufili whose reinforcements had just arrived to Dulaym (and force tribute from it for the Huang had neglected to post a garrison there).
After Petra's fall in 1003, Admiral Lanhim and the navy (which suffered from arson attacks) escaped to the Red Sea which he patrolled for the next few years. Hulu-Halluf and 50,000 swordsmen forced tribute from soon-to-be-ex-Sarkhagi Khuttal. After that he was nice to Tukharistan and Jowzjanan. Afghan construction crews built a royal road from Gonbad through Tabaristan and Kipchak into Jibal, connecting the Afghan-Chinese road system to the Arab road system. Delhi (at 10 Gpv), Patna (9), and Srinagar (8) began huger. The Zufari had a bad hankering for that Black Imam stuff.

Another squad of 15,000 elite cavalry was assembled and were sent under Sho-Ri's lead to China to eventually, someday, participate in the Tan War. The weather was rather nice in Siberia. A navy of 50 cargo ships and 30 warships sailed to Yemen but failed to scare the Yemen Emirat into submission with their loud sounds and gongs. So 20,000 infantry, 10,000 elite cavalry and 25 elite (but primitive) guns landed ashore. There were only 13,000 defenders which were swept off the field. The rest hid within the 50 foot walls of Sanaa. A barricade was placed around the interior capital in hopes that it would be captured. But it defied princes Shanataliba and Lianval as of the end of 504 NH. Seylan got a port city called Narvati. Narvati was then connected to Colombo with an imperial road.
More cities: Pagan grew to 6 Gpv. Vijaya, 6. Tahoi, 5. Kotabaru, 4. Angkor, 12 (yes it's that big). Hong Kong, 4. Rangon, 8. Pa, 8.

DIPLOMACY: Kucha(fa)
Gi Xai raised a new army at Uigur and led those troops to Bactria and thence to Kulsary. There, they exacted tribute, taking it away from the Sarkhagi - and then bombarded the fortress there out of existence. Then the 54,000 troops attacked Cim eliciting the attention of 30,000 angry horde cavalry. These were blasted to bits. Cim was secured as a protectorate. Then Yayik was occupied and the samll treasury at the city of Kohul was taken back to Loyang.
General Hon ran from Bactria, leaving the cavalry he had for Gi Xai, to check up with the Dulaym garrison. They had suffered from a cloud of misery. There was heavy desertion due to foreign agitation. The Ghaznavids had moved them to Bostra. Unfortunately, Hon and the rest of trhe troops were murdered by fanatic Fa-Ti and their greasy guns. Plans to build a city in Dulaym was scrubbed when Dulaym rebelled in 501. The Ghaznavids regained Dulaym for themselves in 502.
In Ru-Si, Zhiang and his troops were battered and buffeted and eventually brought to ruin by Duteng and Dan armies. This was the first time that the Dan actually defeated Chinese arms. To reinforce, Marshal Daben with 150,000 fresh cavalry (just out of the oven) rode up the New Silk Road to Ru-Si land. Dua-Hong was chosen to escort the Nihon cavalry from Korea to be involved in the World War. But the 125,000 elite cavalry had to stop a Külü raid on Yen. The Japanese ran over the mountains to Chahar to crush these nomads. Dua-Hong stayed in Yen for the time being.

THE KÜLÜ HORDE
50,000 nomads erupted from the steppe and attempted to riad Yen off the bat. This caused the Japanese samruai there to chase them down and crush them in the windy woods of Manchuria.
