Upon Our Changing Times

@Lauder

[Heyitsjiwon]

Very interested!

[Dinh AaronMk]

Good, good.

[TheSovereignGrave]

So, when can we at least see some kind of rough app? I'd like to start getting my ideas down onto a sheet, and I'm interested in seeing what everyone else is planning on doing.

@TheSovereignGrave

I'm lazy, RIP me. But I can get it set up before I have to prepare for work.

First, some extra lore that'll need to be known and stitched into the final OP when this comes up:

---

The first farmers were born from the west, coming down out of the gentle highlands as their kingdom expanded and their people grew. As domination was imposed village's worth of people migrated from their homeland or were themselves displaced by the growing strength of the kingdom known as the Hemquan. People of the Hemquan seeking independence poured from the west towards the east with the displaced to farm and settle the verdant valleys and the lush shores of the great river there. In the over hundred years the migration had been ongoing villages have grown in the once wild forests and acres have been cut down to make way for fields of rice and millet, barley and sorghum.

And the men who had called the forests home stand on a delicate precipice signalling a shift in the world and the light of change on the distant horizons. The light brings two fates, to fight or to adapt to the intruder's ways.

[Lauder]

Gonna make me a hunter-gatherer tribe!

[TheSovereignGrave]

All right, time to start on the app for my semi-agricultural, cannibalistic mountain men. :D

[Dinh AaronMk]

And no doubt tomorrow I'll see how badly I will need to amend the map scale.

[ClocktowerEchos]

I guess I'll work on my river village then.

[Lauder]

@ClocktowerEchos

I has idea. How about, you get one side of the river and I get the other so we can but heads every now and again as we try to expand our territory?

[ClocktowerEchos]

@LauderWell where on the river are you thinking of? (Use chessboard-styled cordinates if you have too)

@Dinh AaronMkForgot to mention it earlier but damn that's a pretty map you've made

[RisenDead]

I'll be Oceanside, possibly an island for myself. Or at the rivers mouth so I can join the head butting competition!

@Dinh AaronMkForgot to mention it earlier but damn that's a pretty map you've made

@ClocktowerEchos

"Never tear shit from Google." -me

[Lauder]

@ClocktowerEchos

I was thinking along C9 or D9 for myself.

@RisenDead

HEADBUTT WITH US BROTHER!

[ClocktowerEchos]

@LauderI see, I was thinking of being in the same general area (a11-ish I think? its were the mountains are closest to the river) or being on the delta. Looks like we might be butt heads more often than first thought

[Lauder]

@ClocktowerEchos

Then we shall form a bond of everlasting friendship and go on to destroy everyone!

[RisenDead]

I'm thinking the island at the crosshairs created by G9, G10, H9 and H10.

[Lauder]

@RisenDead

That's a small little island, isn't it?

[RisenDead]

Yep, we are people of the fishing type!

[Dinh AaronMk]

Well at least someone'll be putting all that wasted water tile to use.
