- Posting IC will be immensely beneficial to you as a player. It is, however, not necessary. This is designed so that you can still send in your orders if you are too busy to post, but posting IC will provide a tangible bonus to your DRM (Die Roll Modifier).
- Each [b]Turn[/b] represents one In-Game Month. The player will submit [b]3 Orders[/b].
- Each order is then subject to a 1d6 roll. A 6 means a perfect execution and a 1 means a horrible failure. Posting IC gives you a +2 die roll to a single order, or a +1 die roll to all three. [Specified at the end of your IC post.]. This means that more active players are rewarded.

[indent][center]URGENT! IMPERIAL ORDERS DEMANDED BY THE MIKKADO AND PARLIAMENT TO BE CARRIED OUT IMMEDIATELY!

The orders below are to be immediately carried out:


Section 1. The Mikkado demands that High General Yuan Shu travel with great haste to Chong Long-Tao's military base, and be prepared to meet, discuss, and work alongside the Itheraens that have arrived to train our soldiers. 

Section 2. Major General Ping Lee and the 1st Guards Division that he commands will be ordered to remain stationed in ChongLong-Tao and prepare to meet, discuss, work with, and further develop their existent knowledge and experience with the Itheraen trainers. This inherently means that several artillery guns with sufficient ammunition will be available, as will a sufficient number of rifles with sufficient ammunition, as will sufficient equipment and supplies just as they should be considering that it is a major military base.

Section 3. That 3 dozen police officers and investigators of the large police force in ChongLong-Tao and surrounding towns be gathered under Police Chief of ChongLong-Tao Shin Shintaka's command and complete the following:

Subsection 1: Be divided into 3 groups a dozen men large.

Subsection 2: That the first group, named 'Ichi', will escort the said Itheraens by carriages the entire 20 miles safely and comfortably to the major southwestern city and military base ChongLong-Tao from their current location: the slums of Echl'at.

Subsection 3: That the second group, named 'Èr', will on-foot patrol the entire town of Echl'at and surrounding towns with a several mile large searching radius, searching for the 4 missing Itheraen officers and any clues to their whereabouts, focusing on alleys and going from door-to-door/person-to-person asking about them. If any are found they are to be taken back to the other Itheraen officers that will most likely have arrived in ChongLong-Tao by this point.   

Subsection 4: That the third group, named 'Gurvan' will on horseback patrol the entire town of Echl'at as well as nearby towns and farms, with a several mile large searching radius, searching for the 4 missing Itheraen officers and any clues to their whereabouts. If any are found they are to be taken back to the other Itheraen officers that will most likely have arrived in ChongLong-Tao by this point.  

Subsection 5: That if any Itheraen officers are found to have been kidnapped, robbed, tortured, murdered, or otherwise have been wronged, the criminal(s) must be found and immediately be put to trial. If a murderer of an Itheraen exists and is found with clear evidence that he committed the murder, said murderer will be publicly announced as being such, and be promptly sent to be executed. 

Subsection 6: That the searches, patrols, and investigations on the whereabouts and fates of these 4 Itheraens not stop until either all 4 men have been located and/or their fates discovered.

Section 4: Once the Itherean officers (numbering 32 until the 4 missing are located and reunited with the group) safely arrive in Chongling-Tao, they are to be treated by military personnel with the same care and respect as if they were of the highest rank and nobility, as though they were members of parliament themselves, in order to attempt to compensate them for their troubles.

Section 5: That the 1st Guards Division, its Major Commander, and the High General comply with every request or demand of the Itheraen officers, and treat them with the utmost honor and respect.

Section 6: That the Itheraen officers be immediately updated with the situation as soon as group Ichi makes contact with them, and that the update will involve giving them a document that has the entirety of section 3 on it, and only section 3. They will also be verbally told that a division, its commanding officer, and the High General of the army is waiting in the nearby city of Chonglong-Tao to be instructed and trained by their wisdom. Chonglong-Tao will be introduced to them as it is: a major coastal city in the southwest of the Confederacy, specifically within the state of Greater Hokkan, with a large police presence to keep the streets clean and safe, and that there is a major army base there, as well as a major naval base a few miles away. They will also be told that Echl'at will be improved as soon as possible, and be apologized to for their poor treatment and improper arrival location.
  
Section 7: That whenever the Itheraen officers request to see other army or naval personnel or divisions, that the Itheraen officers be transported by carriage to other military bases as they please."[/center]

[b]Julo-Vigentan War[/b]
Etelo Scianno, a no-name man in the [b]City-State of Julia[/b] begins traveling the city, "preaching" to young men as to why joining the Julian Army is the right choice and that the "Vigentinos will fucking pay." At one point the assembled crowd tells him to get lost, and some flung cabbage and tomatoes have him running inside to get away from the mob. "Not since 1771 have recruiters gone to the street corner looking for opportunities." By the end of April, Etelo will have enlisted 71 new men to enlist in the Julian Army. 33 of them have come from the Julian [i]Stazzio[/i] Prison.

The [b]Vigentino Imperial Guard[/b] comes across the first few townsends of Methynria. There is no resistance save for the disgruntled Julian population. Billets are assembled and night patrols are set. The Quartermaster General of the 2nd Artillery Division "[u]Hammer of the Gods[/u]" pens the following letter to [u]Vigentino High Command[/u]:

[i]High Command,

It is the most urgent matter that Generale d'armata Gumesindo Berretta must be removed from command immediately. We have met with success only on the backs of Julian incompetence. We have been given enough ammunition for four shells per gun. The artillery batteries are without escort of soldier or commander. Already men begin to disappear into the forests after fighting the muck and mud of Methyrnia. We have lost 7 field guns already to "misuse". If Generale d'armata Gumesindo Berretta is not removed from service, consider this letter my immediate resignation as Quartermaster General of the 2nd Artillery Division.

Ciao,
Tenente Generale d'artillerie Mazzano Semetti
Dated April 3rd, 1905[/i][/indent]

[indent]In the [b][color=yellow]Confederacy of Hokkan-Shirito[/color][/b], engineers under Hideki Saburo of the [b]Qiao Armory[/b] present their first prototype for the design request made of them. The [b]Type 91A Rifle[/b] is a sturdier design, with a single wood stock compared to the double assembly piece of the Type 91 as well as a Tyrian load bolt in place of a Fusanese bolt--which was fabricated Parakan steel--and thus more prone to breaking. The [b]Type 91A[/b] is a partial conversion, meaning that existing Type 91's can be converted at a cost of 20% of an existing Type 90. This will increase the reliability by some measure but engineer Saburo believes the only long term viability is to craft a new barrel of a 6.5mm caliber, downgrading from the 7.55mm that the Type 91 currently uses. This will considerably decrease the punching power of the rifle.

The [b]City-State of Julia[/b] places an order of 30,000 Mataxi 1905 SEM rifles and 200,000 rounds of rifle ammunition.
