Re: Erfman the Barbarian
Aha! There we go.
And we've never needed to do that until now? We've always had enough stockpiled rations?
(The *end* of our turn? Dusk? Or the start of our next turn, barbarians depop at dawn right? The start of their own next turn)
Let's make an announcement to all units at Dawn, do no one is surprised.
As Dawn breaks Erfman orders all to wake and join him in the garrison. "Bask in the light of yet a new day! Behind the strength of these new defenses!" Erfman bellows to all arms up looking around at the enhanced Garrison
"We did good yesterturn! We struck a mighty blow to our enemy, and grew stronger in the process!" Growls Erfman closing his newly leveled fist
"Today we expand our breakfast sessions to all. We now have a veritable endless source of upkeep around our walls. All long as that is true, we shall all hold and wait for the turn to begin, for our scouts to do their rounds, and for the fruit collection to be brought to us. Only then we shall all sit together, and listen to the scout reports while we enjoy our food for the turn." Erfman nods as he finishes and then orders the scouts and conscious infantry to bring out tables and chairs out onto the Garrison enough for all- A book in the making: http://forums.giantitp.com/showthrea...-the-Barbarian Add to it! :D

Re: Erfman the Barbarian
Popped rations pop at the beginning of the turn, if you don’t pay for them then they do not pop at all so yes any unpaid upkeep would have to be paid with rations.
Please confirm if upkeep is being withheld from ALL units?

Re: Erfman the Barbarian
In canon there was mention of delayed popping of morning rations, and of popping of evening rations.
Nevertheless
18 fruits pop at dawn in Capital. We have 2 in Larder.
20 highest upkeep units (Dotti included) eat fruits
Stingers eat meat rations
Scouts in the field already with fruits eat fruits
Pay for rations for everyone elseLast edited by WurmD; 2020-03-09 at 04:23 AM.

Erfman nods as he finishes and then orders the scouts and conscious infantry to bring out tables and chairs out onto the Garrison enough for all.
The entire garrison pours in to the great hall and sit down as instructed bar for the couple of scouts who remain in the city who instead make a circuit of the city itself and collect up the newly popped berries that have popped throughout the city. The scouts eventually enter the great hall itself and begin to pass out the berries to the waiting units.
[Have you sent me scouting routes for all the scouts so I can provide scout reports?]
Fanon’s turn does not begin at dawn so they find they are sitting in the great hall for quite a while before Fanon’s turn eventually begins and the few units that did not get a berry have rations pop infront of them.

Current Mental guidelines
Spoiler
- Save juice of planned construction task for after Nightfall (and don't forget to use all the Juice before Dawn, charging Tower if leftover)
- Claim all bodies after a battle and remove their equipment; Claim and collect all equipment of dusted uncroaked
- For every Dollamantic endeavor: Construct in Workshop, cast in Tower.
- Keep a unit by the portal at all times, with orders to report immediately if something comes through.
- Keep a unit in the garrison at all times.
- Whenever not otherwise engaged, golems guard portal and garrison instead of living units
- Juice usage should first come from Tower (Tower can always be recharged later if person-Juice not used)
- Always save enough Juice to fill up tower at end of our turn.
- Always deseed before eating
- No wood cutting in -01.00; Each turn count number of trees / estimate available wood in -01.00
- Shear goats for Wool
- At end of turn, go to Mahogany, and ask her how strong, on a scale, is the dateamancy bond of each of the contracted casters to us
- Units with Rapid Shot, always Rapid Shot by default
- Units with Shockamancy sword or animated weapons ranged attack by default (exception: when in melee range)
Luggage guidelines:
- Keep corpses nude and boxed of to a side (separate from other gear)
- Arm each ranged unit with melee weapon from armoury as soon as they join the side
Agreements
Spoiler

Contract with Dotti Crosst Barbarian signamancer to act as Fanon’s agent in the magic kingdom in exchange for guaranteed upkeep, plus non disclosure contract.

Non-disclosure contract plus natural non aggression pact with Bea Nocular the Barbarian Lookamancer.
Non-disclosure contract plus natural non aggression pact with Krystal Ball the Barbarian Findamancer.
Natural non aggression pact with Hippo Crates the Barbarian Healamancer
Current Magic Items
Spoiler
Craftman's +1 Hammer
As well as being made to be surprisingly strong despite the simple materials that it is made from and it's simplistic appearance, the hammer can also be used as a focus for Dollamancy powers. In the hands of the Dollamancer it allows him to create items and golems more efficiently (25% less resources required) as well as allowing him to create more advanced and complex creations.
Dollamantic focus - Dollamancy spells cast through the hammer function at level +1
+1 Animated Gobwin axe - Through the miracles of Dollamancy this weapon has been granted a small degree of independent motion. The weapon now has two modes that can be activated upon command. Attack and Defend.
Attack - the weapon will fly straight towards the wielder's target and attempt to deal damage before returning to the wielder's hand. (This counts as a ranged attack and uses the wielders combat score)
Defend - the weapon will fly straight towards a designated unit and intercept attacks increasing the units defence
Motion Goggles - These Goggles when worn by a Dollamancer allows him to better understand how a Golem should move. This allows the Dollamancer to create more advanced Golems and spend 10% less juice on their creation. They also have the added benefit of doubling the Dollamancer's chance of spotting a hidden or veiled unit
+1 Shockamancy Sword - The weapon can release a blast of shockamancy (this counts as a ranged attack and uses the wielders combat score)
Croakamancy Helm - This helm allows the wearer to see through the eyes of uncroaked and give them orders as if they were in the same hex. It also provides a +1 leadership bonus for commanding uncroaked when the wearer is stacked with them.

Re: Erfman the Barbarian
Neat :)
Map up to date ^_^
Please correct the Upkeep and Treasury to
Treas at beg of last tu: 2028
Gifts - Expend last tu: -1761
Treas at end of last tu: 267
Income 2000 (3000 managed)
Upkeep 2660 (268 after rations)
Treasury 2999
> 20 highest upkeep units (Dotti included) eat fruits
meant the Prisoner Knight as well, just as we did last turn.
Now I'm ready to start drawing scouting routes ^_^, join me!
EDIT: let's see, our expectation is
- Places that were planted T15, pop bushes. 4 bushes per hex, 12 fruits per hex
- Places that have in the map 0/X fruits (had no fruits at start of 16 because it was harvested T15) pop berries
EDIT2:
2 bushes planted T15 missing in -02.-01
1 bush planted T15 missing in -01.-01
What does the brown 4 means?
I thought the brown 22 before was 22 estimated wood remaining in hex
EDIT3:
Hm, logistics
- A single humanoid can carry up to 24 fruits if carrying nothing else.
-. Yes
EDIT4:
With Minor Fabrication and wool, Erfman imagines making saddle bags to expand a mount's fruit carrying capacity, while still carrying a rider
- what would be this new greater capacity? 48 just for the mount?
With Minor Fabrication and wool and metal, Erfman imagines making a large backpack (XD

Re: Erfman the Barbarian
Treasury value updated based on giving the knight prisoner a fruit
2 bushes planted T15 missing in -02.-01
1 bush planted T15 missing in -01.-01
What does the brown 4 means?
I thought the brown 22 before was 22 estimated wood remaining in hex
Hm, logistics
And a mounted humanoid? We can tie a 24 fruit bag to a Goat while riding and carrying a 24 fruit bag on our backs?
With Minor Fabrication and wool, Erfman imagines making saddle bags to expand a mount's fruit carrying capacity, while still carrying a rider
- what would be this new greater capacity? 48 just for the mount?
Knitted saddle bags: 2 units of wool. 25 juice.
You believe this will double the mounts carrying capacity while still allowing them to cary a rider. If the mount does not carry a rider they can instead carry two saddle bags instead.
With Minor Fabrication and wool and metal, Erfman imagines making a large backpack (XD
https://www.google.com/search?q=huge+backpack )
- what is the estimated fruit carrying capacity?
Knitted reinforced backpack: 1 unit of metal , 2 units of wool. 25 juice.
You believe this will double a units carrying capacity.

Re: Erfman the Barbarian
This is a hard problem.
Shall we do this in stages?
Erfman looking at the map orders Scout Warden on this path, orders Scout Gopher to await at the his hex border for the report, repeat the report over our hex border, and asks that a scout go receive the report at hex boundary
EDIT:
For the second leg, we'll have Scouts mounted on Goats, Scouting, which means they may encounter hostiles.
I think we should remake the Horseshoes of Retreat now, so they can be used by each Goat on their separate runs
Shall we?
Make Horse shoes of retreat (2 metal from swords, 25J + 100J from tower Juice)
Agree: WurmD
EDIT2:
New standing order:
- On spotting hostiles in hex about to enter, Scouts don't enter and attempt to go around
- On encountering hostiles in-hex, Scouts on non-1-move terrain sneak past enemies, on 1-move terrain flee through closest hex boundary
Yes?
EDIT3:
While we wait for Horse shoes of retreat, here is another part. Scout Bond as Dark Green, reports to piker as Purple

Re: Erfman the Barbarian
(Looks like scouting is going to be complicated so I will do this one step at a time)
Erfman looking at the map orders Scout Warden on this path, orders Scout Gopher to await at the his hex border for the report, repeat the report over our hex border, and asks that a scout go receive the report at hex boundary.
After issuing his orders Erfman has some time to wait but eventually a scout runs in to the great hall with a report. ”News from scout Warden your highness.” the scout calls out as he unrolls a rough piece of parchment. ”Scout Warden reports that the messenger bird in Arkum’s mine seems agitated and is likely aware of nearby hostile units...” The scout relays. ”He also reports he was unable to complete his designated route as he spotted a mounted stack of Uncroaked at (02,-03) and decided to go around” the scout finishes before bowing.

Re: Erfman the Barbarian
I'm good with the horseshoes. We really could use them, especially if we can just pass them up the chain.
edit, to dotty: "Moneymancers can turn items into shmuckers, with liquidate-can they do the inverse as well? If so: Do they require a copy of the item to create a new copy, or do they just need one from memory? Can them make scrolls? If the latter is true, how much does it cost for a scroll, assuming it's a 50 juice spell? Can they make items that they've been told about but never see, through the power of moneymancy intersecting with signamancy, possible at increased cost, to then have a template to make more?"Last edited by SomeGuy411; 2020-03-11 at 05:30 PM.

Re: Erfman the Barbarian
K, then Erfman marches up to the tower, and
Makes Horse shoes of retreat (2 metal from swords, 25J + 100J from tower Juice)
EDIT: On his way there, he's struck by a thought, and marches quickly to The Luggage, and wakes her up with 60J. "(Keep my prisoners contained, faithful companion)" he murmurs
EDIT2:
Bond continues
And Scout F makes his best to uproot and replant that bush on our side of the river. The key order being "no bush must remain on the far side of the river"
EDIT3:
Scout F continues
EDIT4:
Rex goes on 2 trips collect 48 fruits
Rex goes on 1 trip collect 24 fruits
Bullseye goes on another trip collect 24 fruits
EDIT5:
And then the big one
Lots of deseeding take place, and Lizer takes a sackful of seeds,
puts a saddle and the horseshoes on Pan
Climbs into Luggage. and she takes them 1 hex out, where they collect 9 fruits into Luggage
and collects a sackful of fruits in the way out
and plants, and plants, and plants.. :D
Then he gives the saddle and the horseshoes to Scout Suresh,
and goes plant some more :)
and waits for Suresh's return mid route
Suresh takes the Goat, and goes scout out Fanart, taking lots of time searching for any living unit visible from the hex boundary.
When he spots a unit, he's to wait a long time for it to move, as to disprove the city if frozen.
"If need be, have him wave from the hex boundary, catch the units attention to prompt movement" instructs Erfman to Scout Lizer
Then he returns, opening the map a bit
leaves a fruit with Goat for tomorrow
and returns with the Saddle and the Horseshoes
Lizer returns with the items and the report, takes Scout F's report in the way back, and collects a bit more on the way back
EDIT6:
Given that those hexes are free from hostiles
Pierce goes collect the last 48 fruits

Re: Erfman the Barbarian
Glad one facet is focused on the scouting runs for us ( thank you wurm) Im kind of against horse shoes however since im staying out of the scouting I will give it a plus one. However maybe send a knit bird to check out the mine. Also maybe we should save the goats move. We might have to use them to check out the mine. Or use the for the force of mounted uncroak

Re: Erfman the Barbarian
I have to agree on the mine. if it's a wurm or something the bird can easily get out of dodge, and I'd really like to know what's there. if it's moved on on it's own we can get some units over there soon.

Re: Erfman the Barbarian
Pause Rex 8move order
Pause Goat move order
New Standing order for today: Everyone should reserve 1 Move
That way we can take everyone with Luggage next to knights, and everyone only needs spend 1 Move to attack them
K, edited the big one:
And Rex no longer does 2 legs.
He only does 1 leg of 4 move and 24 fruits
and then Bullseye does the other 4 move and 24 fruits leg
EDIT: Bird at Capital flies to mine (5 move)
As he gets there, Bird at mine flies to Erfman and reports (4 move)
EDIT2: "Fert, please ask clarification of Gopher and Warden, was it 4 uncroaked mounts, or 8, and did he note the mounted unit's weapons?" asks Erfman
EDIT3: Actually, since Warden saved 1 move by going around knigths, order him 1 hex down

Re: Erfman the Barbarian
With his decision to make Horse shoes of retreat made Erfman gets up and leaves the great hall and begins to head towards the tower however on the way he suddenly remembers The Luggage Golem and stood by to charge it. "(Keep my prisoners contained, faithful companion)" he murmurs as the luggage activated.
[60 juice used]
Erfman then continues up the tower until he reaches his workshop. Once there he has a unit bring him a pair of swords. Erfman then goes to draw some juice from the tower only to realise it is now completely dry (Dotti having drained it during the upgrade) so is instead forced to use his own juice. With an application of some of that juice he is able to reshape the swords in to a set of goat shoes. The hard part then begins as Erfman begins to enchant the shoes. After sometime however he sits back with a satisfied smile.
[125 juice used] [Goat shoes of retreat obtained]
Bond continues
And Scout F makes his best to uproot and replant that bush on our side of the river. The key order being "no bush must remain on the far side of the river"
Scout F continues
Rex goes on 1 trip collect 24 fruits
Bullseye goes on another trip collect 24 fruits
[39 fruit obtained]
And then the big one
Lots of deseeding take place, and Lizer takes a sackful of seeds,
puts a saddle and the horseshoes on Pan
Climbs into Luggage. and she takes them 1 hex out, where they collect 9 fruits into Luggage
and collects a sackful of fruits in the way out
and plants, and plants, and plants.. :D
Then he gives the saddle and the horseshoes to Scout Suresh,
and goes plant some more :)

Bird at Capital flies to mine (5 move)
As he gets there, Bird at mine flies to Erfman and reports (4 move)
"Fert, please ask clarification of Gopher and Warden, was it 4 uncroaked mounts, or 8, and did he note the mounted unit's weapons?"
asks Erfman
”The report says 8 mounted units. Heavily armoured with a variety of weapons both melee and ranged” Fert replies.

Re: Erfman the Barbarian
> [39 fruit obtained]
"Uh, Bullseye, Rex? What happened, were there not 4 fruits per bush?"
EDIT: "Ah, there was only 3 Fruits expected on that hex, not 12. Thank you, you did well"
> [23 fruit obtained]
"Also Lizer, there was not 24 fruits in the 3 nearby hexes you scoured?"
EDIT: "Ah, I see, you gave 1 extra fruit to Suresh and that's the one he left with the Goat. That is fine"
EDIT2:
"Lizer, (as per standing orders) how many trees and estimated wood was there in -02.-01?" Erfman calmly inquires
EDIT3:
Erfman turns to the little bird "What did you see? Tap it out for us" asks showing the paper with unit types already used in the past for the bird to tapLast edited by WurmD; 2020-03-12 at 07:33 AM.

"Lizer, (as per standing orders) how many trees and estimated wood was there in -02.-01?" Erfman calmly inquires.
”The forest hex looked mostly normal. There was perhaps one big tree that had been cut down that had not repopped yet.” Lizer answers.
Erfman turns to the little bird "What did you see? Tap it out for us" Erfman asks showing the paper with unit types already used in the past for the bird to tap.
The bird takes a moment to glance at the paper before shaking its head and instead taps twice on the table.Last edited by _Wiz_; 2020-03-12 at 10:01 AM.

Re: Erfman the Barbarian
Erfman frowns in confusion "Lets recap" he looks at his map he once took from Grim's rucksack hidden pocket, with scribbles in the edges of types of units.
"You saw two units correct?" He asks and waits a response
"Heavy or Medium" he says pointing to an Ogwe drawing, and then to a piker drawing.
"Humanoid, Quadruped, or Worm?" he says alternating between a stabber drawing, a goat drawing and the newly drawn wormLast edited by WurmD; 2020-03-12 at 11:12 AM.

The bird looks up and nods once.
"Heavy or Medium" he says pointing to an Ogwe drawing, and then to a piker drawing.
The bird hesitates for a moment as it glances between the two pictures but eventually taps the picture of the piker.
"Humanoid, Quadruped, or Worm?" he says alternating between a stabber drawing, a goat drawing and the newly drawn worm.
The bird hesitates once again as it seems to study the three pictures but eventually taps the picture of the stabber.Last edited by _Wiz_; 2020-03-12 at 03:05 PM.

Re: Erfman the Barbarian
"Well I'm stumped. Chief! What other humanoid natural allies are there? Can you describe each to the bird?" He asks while also ordering a scout to bring writing ink and paper to see what drawing the bird might produce

”Urgh well theres hobs, dorfs, elves, marbits, sobolds, gnulls... The chief lists of. ”Dorfs are short and hairy, err elves have pointy ears, Marbits are short and annoying, sobolds are short annoying and have tails and err gnulls are hairy and have tails...” he lists off getting only a blank look from the little knitted golem.
Erfman then wets the golem’s beak in ink and instructs it to draw what it has seen. The bird lowers it head and makes a vaguely humanoid smudge. The quality of the drawing is extremely poor and after looking at it no particular units jump to mind.Last edited by _Wiz_; 2020-03-13 at 03:06 AM.
