No explosives, longswords, crossbows, and the mining must be done by slaves, not citizens

Accepted! Hoplites are a standard greek infantry type. They are equipped with a short sword, shield and spear. You are allowed to have other military units, and you are allowed to make minor changes to your hoplites

I'm definitely interested! But I was wondering, do we use Greek strategies or can we use other methods?

You should use Greek strategies, but you can have other strategies/formations as long as they aren't too far-fetched for ancient Greek times

Not sure if I have accepted this... But anyway, accepted!-Polis name: Bravaria
-Brief bio: Bravaria is a prosperous city. It was given the advantage of being built on the penisula, thus armies had only one way of attacking unless they had a strong navy. They were paranoid of being attacked by the other nations for the tactical stand point so, over the years they began building "The Great Wall". The construction took about 900 years to complete. Its still being modified and taller. The workers of the wall have to be brave since they have very high risks of dying. But they do this voluntarily, we keep no slaves. We have a democratic system. There are 12 kings, each elected every 10 years and they all have a council to discuss the land.
-Brief description of the people: The nation is overly populated. 30% of the population are Mongol immigrants who fled here after their landwas taken. They taught us our fighting techniques and agricultural ones, they are highly respected. The other 70% are greek. About 45% of the population are soldiers. Woman and Men both can be soldiers oncde they are 20 but a majority of soldiers are men. 40% of the population are farmers, most women. The rest are workers in construction and guarding the wall. The Mongolian population do each equally. The population is said to have more then 15 million people.
-Coat of arms/Insignia/Flag:
-National colour (Included in insignia and worn by soldiers) Green
-Unique laws/policies: None but soldiers, visitors or merchants may leave the territory. None shall be kept as a slave. Every man and woman are free. The only servants must serve under their own free will.
-Specialties (3 maximum 2 minimum, eg. 'Bonus Morale in Combat', or 'Skilled merchants'): Low rate of attacks from other nations (High Defenses). Agriculture. Big army.
-Disadvantages (3 maximum 2 minimum, eg 'Decreased polulation', or 'Little cavalry) Over population, Low Army skill, poor navy.
-Standard Hoplite description: Standard Soldier Uniform:

Since they have many soldiers and not enough to fully equip them, the generals clothed/weaponized them by skill. The most skilled would have more armour and better weapons whislt most poorly skilled soldiers simply had a sword or just a shield.

-Polis Name: Iοχυπέτρος (Ischupetros; pronounced as is-koo-pet-ros
{To anyone who speaks Greek, I'm sorry for butchering your language.}
-Brief Bio: Ischupetros was founded by Ξαβιρ (Jabir). it was a tought decision as to which part of the deltas the city would be placed in, but finally decided on settling on the east. The polis greatly supports the arts and is decorated with many statues and paintings on the streets. The agora is usually very populated. Ιοχυπέτρος uses a democracy system.
-Brief Description of People: The Ischupetrons are artisans, varying trades depending which part of the polis you're in. They arn't necessarily violent, but the majority of them can be greedy and decietful. Especially to people who don't know much about the trade.
-Coat of arms/Insignia/Flag:
-National colors: Deep scarlet and orange
-Unique laws/policies: Once children are educated by a local school and choose their trade by the age of ten, choosing an available job from the vast choices, only restricted if the city has to many people working the same profession. Switching will require them to talk to government officials.
Artwork on the street will be removed every two months. To get your next masterpiece on display, contact a government offical and they'll put you in the waiting list. You'll be informed when a spot is available.
Specialties:
• Crafts (Pottery, jewellery, weapons, etc.)
• Trade
• Art
Disadvantages:
• Little to no army
• Relies heavily on trades
• Weak defences (Just from other nations, they got floods under control.)
Standard Hoptile Description: An ischupetron soldier will look very flashy, though not actually trained well. They wear an iron chest plate, underneath is dyed orange cloth that reaches below the waist and stops at the knees. They also get slippers and occasionally a helmet on special occasions.
National Specialty: Crafts
Patron God: Hephaestus
Other: They're located in this part of Ancient Greece.

Very good CS! You haven't read the rules, though, so there is something missing-Polis Name: Iοχυπέτρος (Ischupetros; pronounced as is-koo-pet-ros

NPC CITY-STATES (NOT ALL OF THEM, MORE TO COME)
-Polis name: Ischÿs
-Brief bio: Ischys was the original power and city state in New Greece. It used to rule over all the city states, however, the minor Polis's threatened rebellion, so Ischys left them be, only because they couldn't face everyone. Currently, Ischys is very powerful, in both naval and land armies. It's territory is much larger than most, and it regularly bullies small city-states with any excuse. They also have one polis that is still under their rule. The city itself is huge, along eith the population, dwarfing most city-states.
-Brief description of the people: The citizens are upstart, pompous and downright rude. The flow of citizens choosing different careers is mildly even, astonishing considering the size of their armies.
-Coat of arms/Insignia/Flag:
-National colour: Blue, yellow and white.
-Unique laws/policies:
All males must be given an adequate education until 15 years of age.
-Specialties: Huge army, huge navy, Increased population
-Disadvantages: Hated among city-states, little to no allies, easily corrupted citizens and government.
-Standard Hoplite description: Standard hoplite figure and armour, however armour is painted randomly with national colours.
-Location on map:
-National Specialty: Huge military
-Patron god: Zeus
-Other: Ancient Grease
(This is the main 'villian' of the roleplay! Hint: you can't defeat it on your own)
