Ha ha, what battle is this?, I must confess I have lost track on who is battling who at this point......also think the main page of alliances wars is out of date....
Maybe Scar can add lines from country to country to signify alliances/wars to the map?

lol there would be so many lines I am not sure it would mean anything. I can put a little crossed swords symbol on provinces that will show being attacked, and then maybe color code it so we know who is doing the attacking, but I would need a list of battles from somewhere that is current.

If you PM me your provinces under attack and by who I will note it on the map.

My invasion of Kapadapa vs Mr. RBS (round 2).

New of that "so called defeat" of our glorious army in the province of Haik has
gained our approval , we have instructed our General , Lord Rockus , to swiftly meet
General Proximus on the battlefield and this time to wear face masks to combat
the foul stench and avoid any unnecessary gagging during combat.

To WAR !!

We are moving from the hotel to our new house here in Hawaii. I will be offline for up to a week until I get the internet back up in the new place. Thanks

Refuses to feel sorry for you...has to spend this week now up north locked in a lodge with 36 10 yr olds.

Surely the King of Armenia must be unbalanced to view the news of defeat with such happiness... We hope to make him giddy.


*Armies marshall in Geminiacum to meet the Armenian hosts

*We patiently await the great one to assess the butchers bill so that the war can continue in Haik

Romans!! I am forced to stoop so low as to actually have to make contact with you. Armenia is our good and honorable friend, where you are well... Roman. Since you have insulted the king of Armenia, who is more regal intelligent and worthy than yourself we have found that out of a duty we must toss the fouled papyrus of war at you, followed by the slapping of your ambassadors face with the white gauntlet of disgust. We are making an official declaration of war against your Imperial selves, tell general Minimus he has a new invasion to deal with. Armenia we are your good and loyal friends, the holy upholders of your trust and in this time of need are coming to your aid. We are currently consulting with the high priests and checking our clay tablets to make sure we don't have any religious dates or previous commitments, then it is off to Holy War!!
Please tell your peasants to toss out all idols and shut down your temples, soon they will have a new boss to pay taxes to

Are other player's treasury information going to be public knowledge or will they be kept hidden?

Treasury is hidden. I should catch up tomorrow with the posts. A holiday at home with the kids is exhausting!

Sees two friends arming for war...doubts peace brokering would get very far.

Ponders marshalling a third army but where to tour...where to tour...

Decides to put further pressure on the Kapadapa Kampaign. (It's like a compulsion...has to be a way to beat that fellow!!!)(Anubis whispers in the back of his head: "Ummmmmaybe not!")

Flings the wet papyrus rag of war again at Sir Bodleydoka and invades a second of his provinces. (Brings elephants with ground-flattening rollers attached!)

!!

Will pm PG and post a challenge. Hopefully the Outdoor Ed. Centre has wireless. If so, I'll be able to squeek a turn or two in once the students are tucked in their bunks (as if they'll sleep!!).

Ah noble Conventers, it appears you have been duped by your ally, for did not the king of Armenia inform you that peace could have been in the offering if but asked for? Instead he continues, nay expands the war by invading our lands and calling upon yourself to do what he could not. We shall meet your hosts in Liguria. The world knows what arms Mid Republican Romans do battle with, what manner of troops do you draw upon?

Has anyone won a battle against pantherboy??

Although our inital invasion of Pathersvania experienced a setback our troops gained valuable experience and we are determined continue the effort. Likewise with our defense of Polemonium (which is also the name of the 117th element on the alchemical chart, or so they tell me. My astrologers assure me that the defe..er setbacks we faced were a result of an unexpected eclipse of Mars, and is not likely to be repeated.
The battles with the collection of rabble Patherite states continue...

As for new from the invasion of Parthia, nothing has yet been heard, so we assume the battle continues.

What levels of disgust these Romans display , was it not you who fouled our great and noble lands with your armies of war in the first place ! , was it not you who decided to wage war against us and our peaceful ways !
Yet even after your massive losses you choose to continue , not even hinting at a peaceful solution.
We will meet you in the valley of death and take you to hell with us. HUSSAR !!!!
The King of Armenia Welcomes it honorable neighbour the Covenanter Empire and raises a goblet of wine in their honor !

Reads scrolls of the panther victories.....sheeeshhhh!!!

Hear,hear..Citizens of Egypt, Rhodes and Utopia!
Let it be known that by noon tomorrow the troops of Canaan will move out through the gates of Baalbek, then promptly diverge in three mighty armies and set forth to invade, pillage and vanquish.
As I, Baal-hidde, Melek and divine ruler over Caanan is in a benevolent mode today an offer goes out to the poor souls of those who are about to be crushed;
Compel your unworthy leaders, namely Blathergut, ianiow, deeter to come to me with offerings and you will be spared a future as slaves under the Canaan empire.
These paym…eh, offerings must be laid at my feet no later than 5pm Wedensday. Failing to do so will result in declarations of war and immediate invasion of your lands.

Baal-hidde
Melek of Canaan

To clearify
I'll go back home tomorrow and I'm VERY eager to play. As soon as I'm home I will post challenges
to the gentlemen mentioned above.
The reason you are choosen (besides me being allied with Scar)is mine and mine alone

*Pahhhhh's in your direction and tosses the now ragged wet soggy soapy sweaty papyrus rag of war at you!* Will meet you in the Wastelands where we shall waste little effort wasting you.

Raises another army and counter-invades *double pahhhh's*.

(Am just about to head off to the northern wilds...if there is wireless i'll be able to set up armies and start the hooo-haaaa-ing tonight with a bit of luck. You think 36 10yr olds will go to sleep at 9 when asked??? Ahhh..and they call Caesar brave. *Trippple paaahhhhhh's!*

From the dark region in the centre of the Island a thunderous evil laughter erupts, and a dark cloud 5 miles wide rolls slowly down the mountainside towards the harbour and the oncoming Canaan army...





Rhodes will meet the Canaan invasion at Pirate Harbour and will counter invade an Outer region of Canaan in retalliation.
