The structure is research followed by industry followed by the results of the commerce and espionage rolls. All gains will be assigned after all rolls are done.

All espionage attempts automatically fail if at 20 or below and automatically succeeds at 90 or above.

Balance of Power at the time of this roll:

Bilgewater: 16. 16*4=64 research bonus from BoP. Favor is 39(34+5).

Freljord: 9. 9*4= 36 research bonus from BoP. Favor is 85(93-8).

Ionia: -12. -12*0.5= -6 research penalty from BoP. Favor is 69(70-1).

Shadow Isles: -14. -14*0.5= -7 research penalty from BoP. Favor is 35(41-6).

Bilgewater

Firstly, the champion vote. Overwhelming voted in was Renekton, who will now fight for Bilgewater. Nasus, as Renekton’s nemesis, will be available to pick for any faction if Bilgewater picks Renekton in that match, as the “Free” nemesis champion category.

Actual Research Gain: Base=20. 20*2=40. 40+64+262-10=356.

The Moonstone is now 35.6% done. Now in Beta Stage

Industry Progression:

Bilgewater: 50×2 = 100+0 = 100+254 = 354×2->% = 70.8%

Commerce Spending:

Bilgewater has elected to spend its 44 commerce on Research and hire mercenaries(Total Poll Votes: 63)

Research: 22*3=66. 66+356=422. The Moonstone is now 42.2% done.

Mercenaries: 22*2 (Bilgewater has a two for one deal). 44 Strength has been added to Bilgewater. Bilgewater has 13 strength added to its Nyrothian military standing which is now 18.

[Edit by CCT: Bilgewater gets a 50% kickback/discount, rather than hiring twice as many mercs. So it recruited 22 Strength of mercs. This adds 7 Strength to its forces on Nyroth, bringing its total there to 12: still a bit weak, but significantly stronger.]

Espionage Activities:

Bilgewater has elected to do counter espionage activities.(Total Poll Votes: 43)

They will roll against Freljord and Ionia’s attempts this time around. They will only roll the counter espionage if the faction succeeds on either roll.

Danger Roll Threshold: 5% base=5% total failure threshold.

Danger Roll: 83. Only dangers were random street performers with smoking addictions.

The Frejlord(Ruled by Queen Ashe)

Actual Research Gain: Base=50. 50*2=100. 100+36+340-50=426.

Frostgem mines is now 42.6% done.  Now in Beta Stage

Industry Progression:

Freljord: 60×2 = 120+38 = 158+292 = 450×2->% = 90%

Commerce Spending:

Espionage Activities:

The Freljord has elected to Mudrack secrets on Bilgewater.(Total Poll Votes) If they succeed, they will create 1d3 3d10 secrets. Their chances are 30% to succeed, 90% to be caught. If caught, they will lose 5 favor and roll on the sanctions table.

Bilgewater will have a 30% chance to expose the faction, and a 20% chance to prevent success in addition to Ionia’s roll due to counterespionage. These rolls supersede all other rolls.

Additionally, Bilgewater gets to make two counter-espionage rolls which it has a 55% chance to succeed: one to thwart the enemy mission, and one to expose the enemy agent. For each roll, if the defender’s margin of success is more than double the enemy’s margin of success, the enemy fails the roll. (Critical success and failure rules apply. If both sides score a crit, the side that rolled better wins; in case of a true tie, the defender wins.)

Freljord mission success roll(30%): 10. Critical Failure. Barbarians are not very adept at shaking down pirates. They just go into the sea.

Freljord evasion success roll(10%): 17. Failure. Barbarians are not very good being conspicuous.

Bilgewater does not need to roll counter espionage.

As a result of being caught, Sanctions roll with a base favor of 80:

Sanction roll: 87. Wrist-slap sanctions. The league officials were too busy laughing to give a harsh punishment.

Table Roll: 1. The result is below.

Bilgewater will have a 30% chance to expose the faction, and a 20% chance to prevent success in addition to Ionia’s roll due to counterespionage. These rolls supersede all other rolls.

Additionally, Bilgewater gets to make two counter-espionage rolls which it has a 55% chance to succeed: one to thwart the enemy mission, and one to expose the enemy agent. For each roll, if the defender’s margin of success is more than double the enemy’s margin of success, the enemy fails the roll. (Critical success and failure rules apply. If both sides score a crit, the side that rolled better wins; in case of a true tie, the defender wins.)

Ionian mission success roll: 55. Success. They have managed to steal some documents soaked with rum.

Ionian evasion success roll: 70. Success. Too much inebriation from Bilgewater.

Bilgewater Counter Mission Roll(20%): 10.  Failure Drunken pirates on cannons? It’s more likely than you think.

Bilgewater Counter Evasion Roll(30%): 84. Success. But boy can they see the targets they can’t hit.

Bilgewater Counter Mission Roll(55%): 89. Success. Margin of success 44. Ionian Margin of success 5. The pirates managed to finally catch the ninjas after they slipped on a large mass of vomit.

Bilgewater Counter Evasion Roll(55%): 9. Critical Failure. They left the key in the door so the ninjas got out. Bilgewater however has proof of their spy attempts.

As a result of being caught, Sanctions roll with a base favor of 60(70-10):

Sanction roll: 123. Meh. The league officials were still too busy laughing at Freljord.

Table Roll: 1. The result is below.

90+

Meh

Lose 2 Commerce.

Danger Roll Threshold: 5% base=5% total failure threshold.

Danger Roll: 7. The massive Shadow Ninja rebellion on Hallow’s Eve was narrowly avoided

Shadow Isles

Actual Research Gain: Base=30. 30*2=60. 60-7+11+30=94

Night Terrors is 9.4% done.

Industry Progression:

SI: 70×2 = 140+0 = 140+235 = 375×2->% = 75%

Commerce Spending:

The Shadow Isles has elected to spend its 6 commerce on Research.(Total Poll Votes: 28)

Research Gain: 6*3=18. 94+18= 112. Night Terrors is 11.2% done.

Espionage Activities:

The Shadow Isles has elected to do counter espionage activities.(Total Poll Votes:27) However, no deceit could be found amongst the tricker-treaters that for some reason thought it was a great place to go.

Danger Roll Threshold: 5% base +2% Night Terrors=7% total failure threshold.

Danger Roll: 16. Trick or treaters were unstable as test subjects.

Final Active Factional Statuses:

• Bilgewater: 52 Commerce. Favor 39.
• Freljord: 28 Commerce. Favor 80.
• Ionia: 37 Commerce. Favor 77.
• Shadow Isles: 6 Commerce. Favor 35,

So that was fun. Freljord and Ionia both are the first to roll on the sanctions table. Neither were severely harmed by it, but the shame remains.

The Faction Standing Chart will be updated sometime later tonight. Comment below as always and I am sure you will have comments.
