We haven't even gotten to vote on anything yet! I'm sure if given a chance Goons will run Tibet just as hard face first into just as many walls.

What does building a pyramid get us? I find the idea of building mountains on bigger mountains delightful but I don't want to get something that's a total mechanics waste for us.

Lord Cyrahzax posted:You can declare war on China via their diplomacy screen, and they'll send in a Mongol-level invasion to gently caress you up. If you beat them, your dynasty gets the Chinese throne, among other goodies. So is having that just a big pile of +X prestige, +Y income bonuses or do you start actually receiving events for all the other countries' "send tribute, request protection" etc diplomatic China options? I can see why they might not bother to flesh it out if it's something you could only achieve by basically gaming the system but it might be a cool goal if the mechanics of ruling China are interesting enough to show.

For someone unfamiliar with this bit of the game: what just happened, in game terms, and what if anything does Tibet/Gyalyum get out of it? (Obviously in story terms it's just the logical next step of Punch Queen punching everyone.)

“Eirotatounnlki”? I don’t even know what kind of name that is. What is happening with the caliphate in this world? Edit: this is starting to seem like the world where monotheism just didn’t really work out. Catholicism has been in retreat for a while, the European pagans are all reforming. I can’t tell what’s up with Islam but the caliphate sure doesn’t sound like it’s following a stable healthy dynasty. I guess the mongols are Muslim so there’s that.

Later historians would realize that by eating so much of the labor force, cannibal christianity raised the value of individual serfs to the point where lords had to treat them better lest they decamp to another fief that did.

MONGOLIA 1C - The Treasury of Jewels - with perfect prosperity. LATER JIN CHINA 2C - Adding Butter to Burning Flames - adding butter again and again to the burning flames of desire, increasing the demonstration of joy; though activities of earth and water are harmed. FURTHER EAST 3B - The Golden Wheel - the amazement of achieving treasure without effort THE SOUTHEAST 4A - The Bright Star - The non-dispersion of the beautiful accumulation which has been gathered. THE SOUTH 5B - The Jeweled Banner of Victory - the jeweled banner of victory is hoisted. THE SOUTHWEST 6C - The Mara Demon of Aggregates - being pressed down by a large hill. THE NEAR WEST 7B - Pool without a Source of Water - assembly of demons from the southwest. THE FAR WEST 8A -The Demon of the Heavenly Son - Ill augurs, as a house burns. THE OTHER WORLD - NORTH 9A -The Overflowing Jeweled Vessel - the good field of increased happiness. THE OTHER WORLD - THE CENTER 10C -The Demon of the Heavenly Son - If the fires of desire blaze, oneself is burnt. THE OTHER WORLD - SOUTH 11C -The Jeweled-Banner of Victory - the jeweled banner of victory is hoisted. Taking a vague aim at chaos in the known world, and mostly prosperity elsewhere save the Aztec realms, which presumably didn't do great from sending huge amounts of money and manpower overseas to ultimately be driven back. But we'll see soon enough what it is that I actually picked, I guess.
