Nation Building Diadochi Dialogues

[Karcen]

perhaps you might become the first outsiders to trade with the tribes

 

[Albion]

Excellent, that means i'll have a monopoly on sandsilk outside the scorpion lands

 

[MrThe]

I need to do an Anatolian Kingdom *thonks hard*

 

[Albion]

Hittites? Presumably the bronze age collapse didnt hit since the sea peoples just migrated and settled rather than invading

 

[MrThe]

Hittites? Presumably the bronze age collapse didnt hit since the sea peoples just migrated and settled rather than invading

Sure, why not.

 

[Comrade in the Shade]

man, what part of tenacious traders don't you understand? untapped markets are like a holy site to the Eutropians. they'll go even if there's danger

Me too. Your nation sounds cool Kent

 

[Albion]

Oh no, someone cutting into my profits already. Can fish people get addicted to opium?

 

[Comrade in the Shade]

My fish people? I mean... My whole culture is centered on bath houses so. We're probably more into uppers than downers. Ya know?

 

[Albion]

True. Sadly i cant manufacture cocaine... Yet.

 

[MrThe]

Booze, booze is for everyone.

 

[Karcen]

drugs make you weak like water be strong like scorpions

 

[Comrade in the Shade]

I like to think the Gillmen of Asiku have some tasty kelp alcohol that everyone is skeptical of and then, boom. You've lost your pants and you're cartwheeling in an aqueduct down main street.

 

[Karcen]

i am sure worms can somehow be made into some form of alcohol

 

[MrThe]

I have made the map, and I may have made the Orange Anatolia too big.

 

[MrThe]

Maybe I can give them like an extra weakness? Or one less strength? idk, something to offset their provinces.

 

[Albion]

they seem to have the same amount of provinces as us, except orange. But orange could be an empire in decay, for example

 

[MrThe]

You're forgetting the islands.

 

[Albion]

What do you mean? I said except orange

 

[MrThe]

What do you mean? I said except orange

Oh, my bad. Also, that's what I was worried about. I think I might have made Orange too big. Any ideas for how to weaken them somewhat?

 

[Albion]

As i said, empire in decay. Maybe Arkantos' conquest killed many of their scholars, and their fine tuned bureaucracy has decayed since

 

[MrThe]

As i said, empire in decay. Maybe Arkantos' conquest killed many of their scholars, and their fine tuned bureaucracy has decayed since

Yeah I'll think of something.

 

[MrThe]

Kent I totally forgot to tell you but the area you are controlling is the homeland of the Akkamites. They are basically the Assyrians/Arameans and their homeland is the Syria region. It is also where most all the water from the eastern basin flows into the sea.

 

[MrThe]

Does Sardanapalos sound Greek to you? I got it from Babylonian name generator but it had a greekish ending so I decided to use it for the Purple kingdom.

 

[Karcen]

Sure

 

[Albion]

yea
