There's a special place in hell, for OP's that start civ quests and then bail.

>>1363855

>>1358467
We can pick it up. Or start anew.

>>1364282
I suppose....I could maybe give it a try if I can get a friend to make me map's. But I wont make any promises.

>>1367483
If someone would just start running one, I'll wager a few anons would make maps as we go.

>>1367738
Um alright Ill go look over a few other civ games on the archives and I guess give it a try. I am on pacific time. It's 11:53pm for me right now. So if I do end up going through with it it will probably be tomorrow and at like 2-3pm. Or ill just end up posting randomly who knows. But anyway Its a tentative hopeful yes and seeing what I'm launching myself into. Hopefully its something I can handle :3

What do you all recommend when it comes down to the actual statistics of the game. would you prefer something more minimalist like.
Pop:
Food:
Tech:
Culture:
or something more complex and detailed any suggestions?

>>1367905
Simple. It can get difficult to track every stat down. You could do more stats if the quest last long enough.

>>1367905
simple is best. More can be added as needed.
Don't over stress on too many details right out of the gate. Wait till we get a few dedicated players, IMO.

Whelp I guess I really am doing this.

A small group of faun's inhabited a rather large forest full of heavy set wood. These faun's dident have much in the way of technology beyond simple crafting and cooking. Culturally they were rather bland still.

I'll wait roughly 10 minutes between each post and pick the answer with the most votes.

After this, should we scout or gather material to build huts?

Rolling for result.

Dice+1d20

>>1368925
Do you want us to roll best of three or just you? Also, dice+1d20 go in Options.

Rolled 7 (1d20)

derp.

>>1368931 capitalized the d like an idiot.
yeah that seems like a better idea next time ill roll 3d20's

Your people set about grabbing various twigs and other sticks and things of the like on the ground. It's proving a bit difficult for them but you think there at least partially figuring it out.

Your people quickly get to work its starting to become the end of summer one would suppose and rather quickly your people seem to get the hang of building housing in fact. They do so well that everyone now owns a small stick hut for them and any family members they have! This appears to have made some of the faun's closer and a bit of bonds between people are starting to emerge wherein people do favor's for each other and do their best to take care of their bond partner's family. This has resulted in the faun's seemingly caring about one another more and a sense of community to be fostered. Your people seemed to also figure out the spears from working on the houses as well it seems though their simple just a pointy piece of wood.

The faun's truly have started to see this section of the forest as their home and are thinking of naming the forest and their small community.

Fall has arrived the leaves are turning motley assortments of different colors and a small chill has began.
>>What do you wish to name the forest?

That works

Rolled 1, 2, 1, 3, 3, 2, 5, 1, 3 = 21 (9d5)

Rolling for secret stuff.
Turn will come in a few minutes. maybe 10 or 20 more.

Rolled 4, 2, 1, 14, 13, 12, 10, 2, 11 = 69 (9d14)

Rollling for more secret stuff :3 all I'm gonna say is that the last roll made this game interesting and I'm hoping this one does what I want.

Heehehheh welp just to worry you more you will probably only find out what one of those rolls are soon. But that you will eventually find out all the roll's anyone who is smart enough could find out what I was rolling by looking around is all ill say. :3

Ye lucky bastards and your 20's

The faun's all converse and after some speaking decide to name the forest Minglewood and their community Kinboq.

They quickly get to work on the constructions of fire pits............They go overboard. Every house has a firepit now. There is literally a pit in the center of town and it is pretty big. It burns with a strong and powerful heat. You have also figured out how to contain fire and make it portable via the means of torches. 10 children have been born! ALL PRAISE FIRE!

Welp I think the descision is pretty unanimous.

The Kinboq faun's get to work heading out eagerly to search for food they climb trees scavenge about for berrys even manage to skewer some animals and bring a bit back home though most of it will spoil in some way you think it will at least get you through most of winter! Though the nuts you collected will certainly be able to get you through the end.

Or make some instruments. We're Fauns. We need music.

>>1369335

With the fact we have the trait "Love of Fire", we should commune with Fire Spirits

Alright this is actually an important descion they will give you different advice on what to do here so pick one.

>>Nature spirits.
There will be no role since the faun's can do this basic advice asking with little effort.

>>1369374
>Nature spirits.
While I do want advice from the Fire spirits, we need to know what's prowling around here. I'm sure the Forest Spirits know.

though nothing is stopping you from picking both I suppose.

>>1369376
yeah thats fair, didnt read that bit in the main post, go with that

>>1369384
Can we still do both? Having different advice will still help.

>>1369391
Yes you may if you all are fine with tha :3

>>1369374
Both. Get some variety of inputs. Initiate Congress.

Was getting sweet grilled cheese grub sorry for slowdown am back now.

The Kinboq decide to consult the spirits on this matter. First summoning the nature spirit's They stare at you all. And the fire....disapprovingly but not nesscarilly angrily. But when you ask them about the sounds...a cold fury seems to descend over their wooded faces. They almost scream in rage.
"THOSE FILTHY ABOMINATIONS!? They...desecrate the forest..with their mere existence give no quarter destroy them without hesistation." They quickly vanish back into the forest clearly upset.

The kinboq blink and think over what the nature spirits have said before heading to the great pit and seeking a commune with the fire spirits...they answer. They look around...approvingly almost proudly and many of the faun feel a warmth in their body's grow a small smile gracing their lip's. After the fire elemental is told it seems to flare up in glee.
"KIN! They are your kin wreathed and born from flame their very existeance due to it. My children I bessech you befriend your bretheren take no heed of the nature spirit's. Is it not I who have sheltered and protected you? Even while the nature spirits have let many of you freeze to death in the damnable winter months?

Rolling.

The Kinboq quietly get to work at making a small set of instruments. It appears to be mainly wind instuments. Several hollow pieces of wood with small holes in different paces some put together some not. There rather simple but provide some nice clean note's. Some faun's are noticeably pleased by the music it seam's its soothing..and one person seems miraculously skilled at it! Strangely you feel as if there is something more that could be gained to it by gaining the favor of a spirit.

We are adept at it.

Mechines....wait a second... he rolled 9d5 and 9d14... The 9 and 5...I think I get what the secret roll is...If its correct, that means that he was rolling for the races, though I don't know what the second roll was for, maybe terrain? But there are 16 and not 14 bits of terrain, though, two terrains are probably inaccessible for most races so its possible

If my theory is correct, we have Dorfs, treants, constructs, lizardfolk, bolds, skaven, machines, slimes, and scorpionfolk, in other words another victory for logic and math

I'd say hi to the mechines if we can, fire and flame we are one.

>>1369703
If we can try to make the machines...nature-friendly, I think that would be good. Like dress them up with grass and plants. Maybe use some nature magic to make them walking gardens though I guess we will need to convince them first.

The Kinboq finally muster up the courage. Several of them along with the bard head outside the community holding some torches for warmth in this cold. It is at this point. The sounds grow louder. Something....lumbers forth two somethings. Large...giant almost roughly 9 or 10ft tall. one slim and one wide. The slim one is shiny and some kinda silver color with a kinda knightly style. While the other is much bigger width wise and....seems....to almost be glowing...some kinda fire? some kinda fire burning inside them? They both have strange splotches of some kinda reddish material all over them and parts of them seem ripped open or bent or even caved in. They stare the faun's down...but say nothing as if they were as shocked to see you as you are them.
((going to do another post to show what the other robot picture.))

The faun's begin to speak hesitantly towards the large unnatural beings who seem to focus on them. "Hello do you understand us?" The machines then stop and are quiet all humming or other sounds ceasing...then.

"BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR" Loud and almost a roar for a few moments before a click..and a ding. They both speak their voices meshing together almost light...their voices sounding similar to your own....if a little strange.

"We in fact do. Hello we suppose. We are The Collective. We are machine's."

Also, Hilda, was my theory right?

>>1370044
I"ll admit you are right and it was 14 because I dident want anyone in hell. And I messed up and miscounted. Machines would have been somewhere else. I moved em so you would have neighbor's.

>>Where did you come from? Who...created you? The faun's bard asked quietly towards the machines of the collective. They quietly pointed into the tree's north. ".....6.....days that way. We do not know for these unit's. But many of the new unit's are created...via....our leader. What are you? May we head in..to your home?"

>Yes
>No

>>1370104
>"We are the Kinboq, Fauns who live in this Forest."
I can't decide yet. Can't we convince our Forest friends that they can be helpful to the Forest? Like how they are natural evolution of iron and they can be guardians against those who will destroy this land.

>>1370110

Ah thanks I dident know that. Should hopefully have a map by tomorrow as well. Having a friend make it.

Hello and welcome back ill be running again today so prepare for a post

After a few minutes of more conversing the machine's look quietly over at the village and stare at it. Observing the giant pit of fire. The stick huts and something akin to a frown grows on the more damaged of the two robots. They then quietly give some pleasantry's before saying they'll be leaving but that they will be back by next winter.

It's now nearing the end of winter things are starting to thaw out water runs freely about places and the air is thick with moisture.
