Zodiac Empire

The Enovy was bassing by the Imperial countryside, stopping at stations along the way to pick up commuting travelers, and supplies. The Train finally stopped at the Imperial Central Terminal at the heart of the Imperial Capital, Zéros. The city was bustling with busy commuters. At the station, there was a government taxi awaiting the envoy Lordvader59

The Vadian Envoy enters the taxi and is taken to the Capital buiilding (Assumedly) and enters an office (assumedly) "Greetings, the Emperor sends you his goodwill, let us begin negotiations" IneedHealing

Imperial Palace:

"Good day. The Emperor is currently away in an important diplomatic meeting. I am his closest aid, and am currently filling in as the ruler until his Majesty's return. Exactly what would you like to discuss?" Lordvader59


Expansion

The Empire's population has increased by another 1.5 million, increasing the total population to 14.5 million citizens. With the new increase, additional citizens were sent to the new territories in order to settle and colonize, bringing the total population of the island to 500,000 people.

Finally, after 1 year of continuous development, the first 6 battleships have been launched and commissioned. 4 Zéros-class, 2 Iliéz-class batlteships. Along with them, 6 Heavy Cruisers, designated the Admiral Hézveléz-class. And a further 2 destroyers have been commissioned. The navy has begun the construction of 2 new classes of battleships, expected to be completed within 1 year. The Navy has completed research of the cruisers, and is planning on commissioning 10 cruisers within the next 8 months, with 5 cruisers every 4 months.

Iliéz-class

Zéros-class

Admiral Hézveléz-class

The Military has now officially started distributing the new 150mm, 155mm artillery pieces, along with the howitzers completing research and begining production, the first batch will enter service within 6 months. Also, the First of the Imperial Aircrafts have been handed over to the newly formed Grand Air Force of the Principality of the Zodiac Empire, with a total of 180 aircraft, and 20 bomber-configuration aircraft. More aircraft are being produced as another 170 will be delivered within 1 year. Meanwhile, the military placed yet another order of 2 more Iliéz-class battleships, which will take 9 months to build both vessels. The new long barreled Tretez machinegun has entered service, and with it's extended barrel, it gives the machine gun added range for both ground and air targets. Meanwhile the Military has also started researching the development of anti-aircraft weapons. With the introduction of the air force, the military now sees the need for adequate defensive measures against air targets. Research has also been put in place in order to build a weapon that spews out flames. The military dubs it the flamethrower. It expected that the research will be completed in 1 year.

Secret research continues on new weapons of war.

The Military will Draft an additional 100,000 men & women into army as the military will undergo a minor re-organization.

Emperor

After 3 months of sailing, the Emperor, along with his group of mages had finally arrived back in Kadath. This time, with fresh shipments of iron, and raw materials in order to build factories in Kadath, as well additional supplies of guns. This time, several hundred Tretez Machine guns were given to the Kadath defenders. Karcen

Kadath leng

On Leng the new shorted blade would be complete meaning more turbines could be installed in less space to provide more power, but it was still not quite small enough as ideas were forming in the queens mind for their newest creations. the 100 automata were complete not long before the upgrades tot he blades and while they were better than golems they were not as grate as hey could be, they were simple soldiers ready to perform simple tactics they would do for now. Though there was an idea to create a small enchanted device to increase their intelligence and a new way to mix metal and magic.

Meeting:
The emperor woudl be met by the queen and the 100 automata along with a great many of her people and some of the elves some of who had apprently managed to move up in the world it fill positions like fish merchant and other merchant roles. When they arrived the mages and the emperor being attuned to magic would noticed how completely saturated the lands were with mana every thing was filled with magical power far more than any other land from the tallest building to the smallest blade of grass there was mana this was a land of purest magic.

" Welcome to Kadath I am glad that you cam it has been so long sense another leader has paid us a visit personally " Xerula said with a smile dressed in her best robes made of dyed silks with enchantments woven into it and jewels seemingly fused to them. IneedHealing

Kadath yuggoth

The prison after nearly half a year of work was at last done and ready for its inhabitants. The prison was a massive and imposing structure grown carefully to integrate just about every advancement that could be found ensuring it woudl be a comfortable place to learn new skills. The shops were stocked with a great many tools, the libraries filled with tomes on a great many subjects, yards and sports courts were shaded by hanging gardens ready to be tended. Compared to jails elsewhere this place would likely be considered lavish but it was how the spider treated those that they could cure and rehabilitate.

Kadath Sarnath

The lands that had once belong to the merpeople were now part of Kadath and their lands given a new name to show this. Many of the spiders had quickly moved over and had started rebuilding the decaying cities and building new building to make a living here. soon it would be part of Kadath completely and truly even the locals seemed to accept that they woudl be living with these new people but their culture woudl be allowed as no buildings that didn't have to be torn down were not instead they were restored.

Research:
Wardens 6 months
Lexicon 3 months
rebuilding 9 months
metal research TBD

population update
population of spiders is now 11 million

"The pleasure is mine." The Emperor replied as he bowed before the Queen. "I have brought gifts." The Emperor gestured at the addition raw materials that were being unloaded from the cargo ships. "Then shall we proceed with our discussions?" Karcen

The Reich
Dwarven Lands
Seeing as the last tactics were somewhat efficient at keeping the beasts at bay, the riflemen and horsemen were ordered to keep doing what they were doing (IDK how else to word it). The artillery, however, was now ordered to bombard the cave that the beasts were pouring out of in an attempt to cut off the source.
Kazami42

R&D
After many months and many trials, the machine guns, artillery piece, dreadnoughts, and Kampfflungzeug have all exited development. All 5 of them (counting the two types of machine guns) are now being mass produced at the factories. Some of the riflemen are now being trained to handle the new machine guns, as well as operators for the artillery pieces and pilots for the Kampfflungzeug, designated the K.1. The factories are turning out 120 artillery pieces every 3 months, 60 K.1s in the same amount of time, and the dockyards are producing 1 dreadnought per year. As the new equipment gets produced, the older models will be stored, where they are either sold to other countries or scrapped for materials.

Diplomacy
As the men walked, Georing began to reflect on the situation. "Sehr seltsam, dass unsere beiden Völker so viel gemeinsam, wir sind noch nicht einmal bekannt, jedes, andere Existenz bis jetzt. Seltsam, nicht wahr?" (Very odd that our two peoples share so much in common, yet we've not even known of each-others existence until now. Strange, is it not? [Because it would be hard to get an accurate translation.])

Military
100,000 elves were drafted and put in training. Training was expected to be finished in 3 months.

Research
The research for the Fire Retardant Foam was finished. It was then tested on a fire and was proven to be more effective on taking out fire than water.

A research for a power source also begun. The top mages, enginners, alchemists and even the Arch-Mage took part in this. It would be an alternative to coal and other forms of power generator that the other countries use. Research was expected to be done in 5 months.​

Spidernation:
A rather large ship would be sent to the spider nation to trade. Karcen

R&D:
The high rank uniforms were also continually produced.

The chemical safety would continue, a anomaly was found and would be checked upon. There would also be new theories that would be expanded upon...

The new project by the mauser royal arms corporation named "A.N.G.E.L", would be theorized to work however there would be no form of power to get the technology working. Various arguments would transpire through debating how aerial domination could still be achieved for months, however due to most of the work being centered around non-existent technology, work could not be started.

Celestia:
After they had arrived and eventually went deeper within, having a combination of upperclass and middle class society, they only continued using different wagons every town in a straight line. They would pass by hundreds of large towns and even a few cities before eventually entering the capitol[Too tired htf is it spelled again?] city. They would then spend another day, [having spent about a week more traveling.] traveling before eventually going to the citadel center, being the governing building of the empire. they would be forced to of course stop on the outside of the castle and spend a few hours walking to actually get into it. Eventually they would get past the walls and gates, until reaching a modernized gate which had a brick road reaching to the keep which was entirely secluded from the rest of the super city. The gates would be opened however even more guards would escort the envoy. Unlike the usual guards found everywhere else, there were simply just knights, riflemen, and monks around. Now there would be a templar crusader, 7 regular knights, and 15 riflemen watching the envoy. After having spent some time entering the first half of the building, through the gate of the second half, and then through the massive hallway structure in the third section, there would be the main hall. Along the way would be plenty of pictures and busts of Lesu christ, the holy line itself, and previous guards of the line. There was also chandeliers on the ceilings, and red carpets among other royal things and previous flags. in the main hall/chamber, there would simply just be a immense main hall, white and shiny, with giant statues and pillars. Statues being soldier types from history, quite a few having been long forgotten but not their name... There would be a red carpet going down the length of the massive room as the doors behind them shut. There would be a throne to the end of the room, where natalia was. She was simply bored, and having decided today to wear a long dress, which was white and also a royalty/nobility dress. The main section's [far back.] height alone not counting the tower was around 25 - 30 meters high. With the center tower, it was over 42 meters high . .

Spoiler: Capitol building.

[Yep.....Totally never used this as a governing building before.]

A group of Sin'dorei soldiers; both of Blood Elven and Blood Orcish origins approached the young Khajiit.

Republic of Croina

The Zeran men were soon put on a train and began to ride to Kesslar. The relatively short distance between the two cities gave only a few hours trip and they arrived as the Reich meeting began. Inside of the administrative building the two nations met in the meeting room and sat down. After hearing his question Justus responded. "Ja, der Zufall ist erschreckend. Allerdings sehe ich es als etwas, das wir gemeinsam haben, eine Verbindung, die eine Bindung zwischen unseren Nationen stärken könnte." Justus then began to talk buisness. "Lass uns reden. Ich glaube, dass unsere beiden Nationen von einem Bündnis, einem Verteidigungspakt und einem Handelsabkommen profitieren würden. Was sagst du dazu?"

While the talks were going on the Koffer M.1 testing was nearing completion with factory orders made for 300 when the testing is fully completed. Meanwhile Croina has laid claim on the island between Eplad and Ascar. (I'll add a map when i get home)

[waiting until chair replies.]
Training and misc:
The training would be based upon the magic community within the empire to train more magical users. However this time around another class would be initiated. The eldest priests of the empire wanted to bring back one of their best from the ashes of forgotten history, but it was hard to find them without the necessary technique of discovering them. While memory of them has long since been lost, it wouldn't be impossible to attempt finding any. This was expected to take months of hunting and then research, but eventually they believed someone could be found to re-enter the ranks, and become the best of the empire's magical community. Also another training, one for new military recruits, would take place and last for 3 months.

The development of gas masks have been completed as they are expected to enter service immediately, and will be completed within 3 months. The Empire is also nearing completion of researching way to utilize chemicals within artillery shells, as the research phase is only 3 months away from completion.

Meanwhile, the military continues to research new designs for war weapons which are expected to be completed in 9 months.

The two additional Iliéz-class battleships are continuing construction with them being expected to be delivered by 9 months. In addition, the new battleship design, the Goréz-class battleships have been completed. Contruction of the two battleships have begun with both being expected to enter service within 1 year. The navy is also planning on constructing another class of heavy cruisers, which will begin research for 6 months. A further order of 2 more Admiral Hézveléz-class heavy cruisers has been placed with both expecting to enter service within 6 months. Meanwhile, an additional order for 150 additional planes had been placed, which will start in 9 months after the first 120 have been delivered. The military is now looking for better guns to supply to their soldiers, including new types of guns. Their research is expected to last 6 months.

" Your gifts are most welcome" Xerula would say moving slightly so as to not tower over the human like other spiders around them.

She knew that this was more or less getting rid of things they did not need but her people had not been working very hard on creating what others did as they would rather not have war and having everyone stocking up and seeing their neighbors was just asking for it. Kadath woudl stay its path and make great things but it would allow the other nations their chances to make great things without realizing just what kind of potential there was in the world. The world had been stolen and its makers slain they should at least work to making it worth the sacrifice.

" And i have decided to give a demonstration, perhaps some of your soldiers against the automata we have made, a friendly little battle of course" She said as this was a good excuse to test the 100.
