Listings in the middle of camp inform trolls of the current standings amongst the many tasks available. Now is the time to act – if you are to be a greater asset to your cause, it would be wise to hone your skills.
Phase 2 will begin soon! At this time, training in both camps will shift tone dramatically. Time spent is hurried and serious now that the conflict has ignited. While trolls are still able to learn from veterans and workshop their skills, more applied forms of their tasks are relevant now. Good luck, recruits!
Below is the current list of standings for use in the Phase 2 Territory Game. As your troll levels up in training, they will be able to use their most current stats in each skill.
Again, the young troll spent a few days wandering around before going back to help out, smile on her face as she lifted a wooden plank and helped bring it from one place to the other, gritting her teeth and helping the others bring stuff from on side to the other. With a sneer, the younger girl kept going, even when the others tired out! She was amazing after all. I mean, look at that strength!! Her miniature muscles were works of art. She could feel herself growing prouder by the second. "HELL YES!"
Tonight seemed far more productive - or perhaps it was merely the posters that made it seem so. At any rate, trolls seemed to seek Dictys out to ask about recruitment to the military. And, of course, Dictys was pleased to respond - ey wanted to get to the stars sooner, and what better way than helping rebuild a city to glorify the Alternian empress?
Trolls seemed amenable enough when they realized the military tended to, well, take note of the trolls that helped them out. Dictys made a note: clearly more trolls needed to be aware of that. It would be stupid, anyway, for the rebels to do much of anything, for Dictys was satisfied that once they were identified, they'd quickly be snuffed out.

Alifax was posted to a different spot, this time - and without the maps as a crutch. His clothes were ragged enough, they'd told him - he looked like he could be homeless. So today he was wandering through the...er, paleflush pleasure district. Looking for people who might seem suspicious.
It seemed, though, that business here continued as usual regardless of what else was going on.

Tamiya looked over some notes. She was rather bored with lazing around, after all. She needed some hands on experience. Field work. And Kabukidad could use a walk.

Today's Activity— Construction
Shenanigans were really picking up now. Sure Vulpin knew that there was more to this clean-up situation than met the eye, but these rebels were really attacking at full force. He'd better brush up on his building skills so he could build a big tower away from all of this trouble.
The few maquettes he made didn't fare so well though, falling to pieces within minutes. He'd just have keep working on perfecting it.
When Nahori had glanced over just what was expected of them, what paths they could take to bring glory to the Queen and help with the reconstruction, she paled. None of these things seemed plausible for her. She was physically weak and not very sneaky and couldn't talk to others without stuttering and pausing. How could she hope to train and be of assistance? With guineapigmom at her back and nudging her forward, she knew there was no sitting at the base without working, unfortunately.
It was as if her flimsiness was rolling off her in obvious waves, because when she chose construction in a sudden burst of uncertainty, she was given blueprints to study, a job slightly more tactical that would keep her inside the walls of the base. Though at first the schematics looked like nothing but gibberish to her worry-addled mind, eventually, as she started to calm and try a little harder, she realized something.
Hey, blueprints were very specific. Things had to be where they had to be or risk structural integrity. It was a lot like baking. Even a small misstep could spell disasters. While Nahori wasn't the best at baking, not by a long shot in fact, she could at least apply the few things she'd learned to beginning to understand what she was looking at here.
Lady luck hadn't been on Luxara's side lately. Her bandaged, swollen thumb was plenty evidence of that. Even so, she had to keep trying! So she went back to basics. There was still that troll she needed to find, the one nesting out in the city! As others rushed around during this panic, Luxara made another map. THIS time with approved materials! It wasn't much. But hey, progress is progress!
While she had her duty to establish and hold the Base (which she so was totally the captain of her hat made it official), Atiqua still had to do her duty and demolish things.
So taking a hammer, she went fat mustached plumber on it. HARDCORE.
Abrila was learning a lot about smashing walls down with pure force. But that night was going to be different. Instead of walls, there were tables set out with wires. There were already a few trolls there, tinkering with this and that but looking lost for the most part.
Abrila shrugged and took a seat. There appeared to be blue and red wires, a timer, and some other bits and bobs she didn't know the purpose of. Then the shaky instructor from one of the days before came out, adjusting his glasses nervously.
"Today we are going to start on the basic construction of explosive devices..."
Oh. Abrila sincerely hoped he wouldn't shake so hard that he would kill them all. That would surely put a damper on things.
Activities: Construction (18 points), Intelligence (1 point)
Sneaking about had been fun, but Etsali wanted one more try at memorization. Unfortunately, the change in tone at the training camps meant a lot less sitting around staring at things and a lot more 'Hey, go make yourself useful!' She supposed it would be good to learn more about building sturdy bases for future hideaways, so off to work she went!
Sinter, had just completed his assigned work for the night. He'd just left his station and was headed across the camp, when he heard his name. Before he'd had a chance to place the voice, Tamiya was upon him. Sinter was only thankful she wasn't the type to surprise people with hugs.
"T-Tamiya!" Sinter half greeted, half exclaimed. It took him a second to overcome the instinctual panic that set in upon the sight of purple. He knew Tamiya well enough to not be that scared, he figured. She seemed happy to see him, at least.
"Ah? Uh! I just finished putting all my things away, actually," Sinter flustered. He suspected this was about as close to small-talk as Tamiya could get. "Do you need anything in particular? I can, uh, get some charts or numbers if you'd like..."
Sinter wobbled between continuing to face Tamiya and turning back the direction he'd came.
...Wait a second. Did she just hire him onto her recruitment team!? ]
Keeping herself busy, and more importantly, useful, was another of her objectives. She couldn't let them know when she wasn't learning how to construct buildings... and she couldn't let them see what she was really doing! They'd get her for sure!
Larque chewed the insides of his mouth as he wrote notes, slinking through the insides of a spacious old warehouse-type building. There were some boxes stashed in the far corner, potential supplies for the cause, and he clicked on his walkie talkie, awkwardly reporting the coordinates of the big building.
