You're forgetting some for dice 4:

Increase in Russian +10
Alcohol Tolerance +5
Ability to Sing in Russian +7
Ability to Cossack Dance +21

Alternative Flag:

-Pulls rope and the Thousands Blades appear, the Empire's best swordsman kitted out in full metal armor and razor-sharp steel swords-
-Said Thousand Blades are supported by Elven Marksmen-

What do you do?

(thanks for reminding me)

Using my new found Russian abilities I declare the territory around the elves as an independent republic and recognize them as legitimate government. In the ensuing confusion I hide behind the elves, pick up one of the bows from one of your dead archers and fire a single random shot into the Thousand Blades who immediately attack the New Elven People's Democratic Republic of South Ossezkhia. I flee during the fighting and return with reinforcements of bear cavalry. We wait for the war between the thousand Swords and the Elven republic to end and we destroy whoever is still standing at the end with a massive bear cavalry charge King Theoden/king Stannis-style.

We scorch the land and leave only your vodka distillery and your shot-glass factory standing.

I don't think being Russian accounts for any part of that plan.

@The Captain Good sir, would you like the Ryukyuan Empire to send you an Eastern welcoming note made of arrows and the bodies of you soldiers. I think not.

And this is not petty, Russians are a real, legitimate threat to Tannis!

How petty it would be to send so many young Ryukyuans to die in some forsaken desert.

How petty it would be for a nation whose people can't even remember their own naiton's name to challenge the Ryukyuans with such a tiny army

"Full moon calls thee--
Shai-hulud shall thou see;
Red the night, dusky sky,
Bloody death didst thou die.
We pray to a moon: she is round--
Luck with us will then abound,
What we seek for shall be found
In the land of solid ground.”

I was referring to Russia's recent habit of creating mini-republics around it out of the bodies of their former foes. The clue was in South Ossezkhia which is a mix of South Ossetia and Abkhazia but could also refer to what's going on in eastern Ukraine.

Also bear Cavalry.


And Captain are your people the Aztecs or something cause damn you scary...

Battle Hymn of the Thousand Blades

"Us loyal thousand, sworn to serve the glory of the emperor and his heirs
Us noble thousand, always faithful, born to greater calls
Us skilled thousand, destiny as chosen us to be undefeated in swords
Us graceful thousand, dance our blades across a canvas of war
Us honorable thousand, devoted followers of Ariashino until death
Us capable thousand, wield the empire’s most advance to strike down the darkness
Us terrifying thousand, strike fear into demons and hell itself
Us fearless thousand, march onward to dangerous unknown
Us immortal thousand never die, waiting for the Emperor to lead us in the realm beyond
Us legendary thousand, names to be carved into history itself"

I'll join the bandwagon at take a stab at writing a song for the Azracs.

Never Flee

"The green fields, they wither,
the sweetest dates rot and turn bitter.
All things must have an end,
even the sea and its glitter.

Horses die, and
Brothers die,
We ourselves die.

Yet the wisest amongst us know what never dies:

The Glory of the soldiers Dead,
the Guilt of those who fled."

Turned out more like a poem.

@Sini What does the rest of the world look like? I remember you said Tannis isn't the only landmass and that Tanis is about half the size of Europe, so how many and how large are the other land masses and are they inhabited?

Nobody knows. Likely they are inhabited, they must've come from somewhere, right? ;)

They're not a factor in this RP, unless all of you would like them too. Point was to focus on Tanis.
