Raiders of Chanyu
## About This Game
## Choose your fate and those you protect
As a small Garrison Commander in ancient China you are entrusted to protect an
out lying area of Emperor Qin Shi Huang lands that border the nomadic Chanyu
rulers of inner Asia. Use your wits and experience to stay alive and keep
betrayal and the Chanyu raider at bay.
## Odyssey in Ancient China
Your area of jurisdiction covers an open world of 50 sq km of farmlands and
rice fields to lush forests, swamps and mountains bordering the areas of the
Chanyu.
## Stamp your Authority
Enforce your rule to maintain order and productivity whilst responding to
village needs, conflicts or raids from the Chanyu. Lead or order raiding
parties on the Chanyu to inflict revenge or steal resources. Your decisions
affect how your enemy and peasants respond.
## Memories and Interactions
With hundreds of peasants and warriors, every character has their own identity
with specific memories and experiences that shapes their skill, attitude and
behaviour. Morale, loyalty and obedience is not guaranteed, beware of
treachery.
## Player Skills
Skills are not limited to fighting, movement or objects, build memories and
create confidantes to help identify those who’ll betray and undermine your
authority.
## Take Command of Your Garrison and Jurisdiction
Manage the specialized resources of your garrison as you customise squads of
warriors and peasants as they enforce your will, go on patrol or into battle.
## Villages and Peasants
The peasants all have skills related to the type of produce of their home
village (e.g. cart driver, livestock tendering, crops, cloth etc) and work
collectively to produce output for their village and the emperor. Take control
of your jurisdiction and manage it’s production output, food and resources
reserves.
Resources can be moved between villages or stolen from the Chanyu clans of the
Xiongnu. Peasants can be captured from the Chanyu and used to bolster your
work force.
## Use the Resources of the World
Use the resources of the world to boost morale and reward your peasants. Heavy
resources require an ox and cart for transport. Use them wisely to ensure
availability so perishable resources such as hunted deer don’t go to waste
