LORDS OF THE EARTH
CAMPAIGN 11
TURN #69
1241 - 1245

RULES IN USE 5.8.2
So if you don't have a copy either download them from the
Throneworld site or order a paper copy from Thomas!

RULE MODIFICATIONS
Any cultivated region can be colonized to 2gp by spending 15gp and 15nfp per level
Any named Island can be colonized to 1gp (with a few exceptions)

Any or all of your support cost can be paid by nfp at 1nfp = 2gp

Recruitment A Merchant house, Open Nation, or Secret Empire may spend gp in 25gp blocks to attempt to get nfp for Megalithic Projects. Base amount is 1d6-1 for open nations and -2 for SEs. Note to SEs zero or less nfp result may get you exposed.

I am using the Lords 17 combat system.

Note that the Combat values for Warships are what they are worth in land combat. For Naval combat they are as follows:
HEW = 3, HW = 2, EW = 2.25, W = 1.5, XEW = 1.5, XW = 1
Troops on ships Elite Infantry any Type = 1.5
Regular Infantry any Type = 1
Inexperienced Infantry, All Cav, Siege, ART = 0.5

Lords 11 Unit Conversion
Each point of cavalry and infantry represents 500 fighting men.
A warship or transport point = 1 ships with 500 men aboard each ship.
A siege point = 500 sappers or 5 ballista, catapults, siege engines, trebuchets or battle towers.
A field fort point = 1 fort manned by 500 men each.
A wall point = 10 feet of city wall ramparts.


GM Notes

Please take a look at the map in your area and let me know of any differences between it and what is on your stat sheet

My email is phillipbaird@sprintmail.com

Because I don't like "Magic" Numbers I am using percentages for basically all bonuses i.e. normally for every 5 ap extra spent on an action you get a +1. Now each AP is worth +0.20. So 5ap still gets you +1 but instead of 4ap being useless it has an 80% chance of getting you a +1. Same basic system is used for gp bonuses.


UNIVERSITY LEVEL
Please note that there is a maximum useful university level 10 is the max you will want and then only if you are a theocratic caste slave state for each that you aren't subtract one, if society and/or economic is open subtract one each, if half of your income is from cities or trade subtract another one. So somewhere in the 5 to 7 range will max you out. Maybe less depending on your religion and location in the world.

EXPLORING
Note one-way arrows are just that one way. So if you want to explore them you send someone off and they have to explore till they find a way back. This may take more than one turn.

Sheik Mohammad, Defender of the One True Faith

Diplomacy: None

Mohammad headed off to kill more Greeks. So off he went with 250,000 men. He headed into Isauria where James was just arriving to take up the defenses. James took one look at the massive horde of mostly cavalry looked at his barely 75,000 men and decided discretion was the better part of valor and took the army out of there and over the mountains into Phyrgia while the horde took over the region.

Mohammad then announced that he would forcibly convert the religion of the region to Islam. The next morning when his men went to wake him they found Mohammad, his son, wife and several aides missing. Later that afternoon one of the aides arrived at camp and told the men that Mohammad would be returned if the horde didn't try and forcibly convert the people. The men agreed and some were allowed eventually to visit Mohammad where he was being held at the Patriarchs palace in Constantinople. In the middle of 1245 Mohammad was released and allowed to return to his army with his agreement not to try and forcibly convert any followers of the EO faith. Peaceful conversion was acceptable as anyone who would agree to convert was damned anyway. Mohammads eldest son would be held till his 15th birthday when he would be released if Mohammad kept his word. If not, well they kidnapped him right out of the middle of his army how much easier would it be to see to it that he never woke up. Also while the Patriarch would like to see peace, he would not get involved in any wars so long as his followers were not disturbed in their worship and his churches etc. were not harmed.
