I liked the part where Falcon conquered in the wrong direction from the horde.

Even if he hadn't though, you're right that he didn't have the manpower to fight back.

AT LEAST I SURVIVED THAT.

But I like how that turned out.

Now Panda is fighting against himself with himself to reclaim his land that he stole from himself after he rebelled and broke away from himself.

lol.
more war for him.

lol. more nothing on an island for you.

-The Holy Roman Empire is formed after Otto I marries the widowed queen of Italy, and unites the rest of central europe through conquest.
-The Byzantines, shocked and appalled that another nation besides themselves would claim the right to Rome and Caesar's history, have shed their ties with western Europe and are put on the brink of war with the Germans. They have also recently started looking at Angmar with contempt, as their continued support of old Pagan ways disturbs the Christian empire.

-The invention of the flamethrower, similar to greek fire, is mostly ignored by the highly mobile cavalry forces and light infantry footmen of the Mertolan armies, which would all be greatly hindered by having to cart around such equipment.

Naronius (MisterJ)

Govt: Republic
Army: [====|======]
Navy: [======|====]

Tech: [======|====]
-The Mygwi Confederation is finished, its frail government having been crippled and destroyed and her armies routed.

Army: [====|======]
Navy: [=|=========]

Tech: [======|====]
-The dutchess of Navarre marries into the Teclo family, and brings her estate with her. This has greatly disturbed relations with the French, who hold claim over all of Aquitaine.

HOLY FUCK BYZANTINE, GET OFF MY ASS.

And thus, the war between me, myself, and I drew close to ending, as I helped me take back much of my land in well thought out attack plan against myself, bringing the bond I have with myself ever tighter.

Russian, Vlad, Quaker.

Events are going faster than expected, and we ain't gettin' any younger.

PM me, there is a slight change I'd like to talk about, then:

@fridge: sorry about the viking alliance. i'm going to basically annex them into my country anyways.

Looks like somebody is planning something big, now I'm really curious.

If you were Cattonia, I could say something witty, like, "Curiosity killed the cat".

Instead I will say STFU NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS.

Vlad and I seem to have resolved our problems, so I guess we're allied now.

Good, good.

Also, my team, if you are comfortable with it, send me a copy of your moves or the ones involving the plan.

Why is it that I'm putting so much effort into strengthening my military, but my Army/Navy sliders haven't moved in quite a long time?

أنا لا تعطي الخراء حول ما يحدث حاليا. نقاش بين رسائل خاصة
Arabic because i felt like it.

Your nation is too small to have a visible effect on them. You have a massive army for a nation your size.

Yeah, I can't help but feel that someone's going to get fucked over.

No one ever involves me in multi-nation affairs…

On a more serious note, I agree with you Madcat, somebody is going to get butt raped for sure.

I think I might add a little asterisk to each army/navy slider to give y'all a hint at how big your armies are allowed to be. Maybe.

I'd prefer an NPC military slider, but that is entirely up to you, seeing as you've got your hands quite full.

Also, team Prometheus/Rossiya/Teclos/Angmar, which will now be referred to as the ARVT, make sure to mention that we'll work in conjunction.

So, you're saying I'll have to expand my territory to gain a larger army?

Yes.

Fridge Logic, madcat, Douglas, you are all very near to Witch King's little party, and yet you aren't a part of it. I would highly suggest buffing your armies as fast and hard as you can. 'Cause something tells me y'all are gonna get raped.

Oh, trust me. We aren't plotting against them. I've just entered into a trade agreement with madcat, so we have no reason to attack him and ARVT has no interest in attacking England either.

me and witch are friends.

Oh dear no. I don't want to start a fight with other players yet, it's no fun while there are still so many NPCs wanting to rule the world.

I knew this whole thing was mysterious, and it's that one word "yet".

*Diplomatic Allies

Exactly, that 'yet' worries me. Anyhow, my only other guess is conquest of the Byzantine Empire(and every other npc).

Well of course "yet". At one point, it will boil down to a group of loyal friends and another group, and that… that is the war that will end the world.

*Friends in which one party feels guilt for breaking a promise and has sworn to re-affirm his honor.

Oh, well there is on pro from me taking Douglas's land, you didn't have to sail all the way to North America to become allies with him now.

No one ever involves me in multi-nation affairs…

Welcome to my world.

-The Mygwi Confederation is finished, its frail government having been crippled and destroyed and her armies routed.
-Pacific exploration continues.

Naronius why do you keep pushing into the pacific? Don't you have an India to conquer?

Yeah, but now I have to sail all the way over there to put my slavic foot up your ass…

Now Witch-King, he ain't botherin' nobody.

Hmmm… yes… I see what you are thinking.

We let him sit there, and ROT FOR ETERNITY.

Nah, let's just destroy him.

Once more I equip my BOOTS OF HAZARD upon my SLAVIC FOOT.

Dear Diary,
 I once again find myself at the grotesque and smelly end of WK and RF's threats. I wish they would just let me be, but mom says that other girls will always bully me because I'm so pretty it makes them jelly. I guess all I can do is pray that one day they can be close to as pretty as me and we can all play together peacefully.

Because the Mygwi Confederation bugs me and I want to eliminate as many enemies as possible before we get to the 1700s.
Also India is is good enough. North-East Asia though……..

RPP, I have multiple debate halls and libraries that match those of Greece. My nation is much prettier than yours, at least academically.

My entire nation is based on the rule of warfare, conquest, and practical living.

And I'm okay with that.

I think you need a couple libraries and universities.

NERD.

No, Intellectual Enthusiast.

Enough of this bullshittery, are you allies or arch-enemies?

Who?
