Right, here's my OOB, starting plans, etc.
State: The Empire of Manticore
Ruler: James Baerne
Location: Modern-Day St. Louis; now called Minas Anor
There would be hundred of Cahokian mounds, some hundreds of feet in height, in my territory at this time, many of which are outside a city. I'm dropping my fortress (which will be an exact replica of the Tower of London circa 1500, when it housed the majority of England's weapons, including several cannon) on top of one, as close to the Mississippi as I can get - Exactly how close this will be is entirely up for debate, but certainly not more than a mile.
5% of 2500 is 1250. Therefore, I have 1250 each of modern axes, saws, sledgehammers, shovels, pickaxes, plows, measuring spools, and seed bags.
125 kilograms of gold forms my starting treasury.
I shall fill my Mystical Transport Box with low-volume high-value trade goods: plastic beads, glass cups, synthetic fabrics, compasses, binoculars, small mirrors, and mechanical watches, specifically.
On to the army.
Orcs: 10,000. 5,000 will be armed with crossbows, 2,500 with 18-ft pikes and swords, and 2500 with swords, shields, and spears. (20,000 points)
Naga: 500. (1,500 points, 21,500 total)
Satyrs: 100. (500 points, 22,000 total)
Ursiods: 100. (3000 points, 25,000 total)
Plots & Plans:
It is my policy to trade with every SDN enclave, and with as many native civilizations as possible. As I'm right across the river from Cahokia, at this time one of the largest cities in the world, I intend to establish good relations with them as soon as possible - Those trade goods I'm bringing are for their benefit, as will be some livestock of a type and quantity to be determined later. If it seems beneficial, I'll give my first nanite injection to their king, first explaining that it is a gift of the gods through me to him, and that he had best repay it - Marriage politics might be viable; we'll see.

First off, livestock: I'll take half cattle, and the rest divided equally between pigs and sheep, so: 1750 cattle, 1750 pigs, and 1750 sheep.1,001-3,500 Regular Posters
25,000 Army Points
A fortress diameter with five meter tall and two meters thick made of rammed earth and fire hardened brick, barbed wire and various support structures listed above on a larger scale and additional buildings surrounding it based on your size.
