The Discussion Thread at Dawn!

As evidenced by the latest diplomacy post, you just pick fights with the wrong people. :)

[Stargate525]

Yeah, but still. Free Captains have no problem, Otahvy has no problem... Oh, wait, an Inveran ship, let's give them hell...

[Polycarp]

In this case, the free captains played ball.

[Stargate525]

And another crisis averted because of my kickass debating skills!

[AllWillFall2Me]

You mean another crisis you initiated averted by said skills.

[Polycarp]

I just have to share that this made my day:

father did you hear the news? a hippo killed juhad when he was trying to cage it and remove its teeth. it is a sign from the divine everyone in the village has taken it as such and are honoring the hippo as the divines' pets. there is to be a hippo sacrifice once per lunar cycle and more people are trying to capture them for other uses such as plowing the taro fields or for food. i even heard one of the soldiers tried riding one and unfortunately he is no longer with us.

Besides the point...

No irony meant, then Avardera got some of the must nifty neighbours. bunch of tunnel digging, empire defying mean sons of a bear to the south, and insane warrior women who'll try to kill you with thier bare fist, if you only manage to disarm them. (by the way, hope you don't get too stressed with what ever you're up to Ami)


so I guess it's really Kashtu and Yaffa that's in deep trouble, who's in must trouble depends on where ever or not they'll wander an army through the desert, or sail it over the sea.


oh, on a side note, unless it's for specific kind of trade agreements, like embargo, rates and such, can it then be assumed that ones nations traders asils to where ever there's profit, despite any communication or lack there off between the nations?

I'm definitely worried about being caught between the hammer and the anvil if Kuregn goes to war with Celend. I need to persuade them to take their war elsewhere.

[Wensleydale]

The Machta's brother is even more psychotic than he himself.

...

Oh dear. War is inevitable.

[Stargate525]

Thing is, if you're the agressor, this should prove rather enjoyable...

[Wensleydale]

Yeah. He's unlikely to invade Inveran, though. He's only about fourteen, however, and idealistic and violent. He was the only real choice that wasn't likely to spark civil war or at least dissent, though.

Phooey. Your nation needs a good civil war, and a friendly nearby ally to help 'put down the rebellion.'

I'm temped to just goad you into attacking Inveran, truth be told.

[amikaligula]

I think you Southerners need to find some stronger liquors to trade to my Northerners.  What's funner than six-foot-spear wielding psychotic barbarians drunk off their asses?

[Tillumni]

six-foot-spear wielding psychotic barbarians who's drunk off thier arses and have to learn how the hack to herd sheeps for the first time in thier life. *grins*
