Re: Perpetuality - The 60 Player MegaGame (Signup)
Well, here is some drama for you HB.
EA C'tis has received a letter from Midgard indicating that MA Man is plotting against the lizardmen. We have also received a copy of a message Man supposedly sent to Midgard. Since Man decided to smear us in the public not too long ago, we have decided to make this issue known to all. Here is the supposed copy of Man's message to Midgard.

Well fought sir! Your valor is to be commended, and in Our generosity, which befits us, the true God, We have ordered Our forces to stand against Our traditions and *refrain* from pissing on the graves of your fallen. This is, of course, the second highest honor that can be done a defeated enemy - the highest being an offering of the finest Mannish whiskey, albeit passed through the kidneys.
Our army is far from invulnerable, but the day is Ours - behind fortress walls, with wind guide and flaming arrows (which We will will cast Ourself), and the other fruits of Our latest research, you really have no chance of wiping it out.
Now, you might consider turning your main force around and trying to burn down Our capital. In fact, that is *actually* what I expect you to do. However, with Our forces harassing you and retreating (longbowmen are good at this), casting panic on your stuff and retreating (you won't have anywhere to flee), etc. etc., not to mention Our dear little brother Menhir trying to intercept you, you won't make that long march. Still, the inconvenience you would cause Us would be quite substantial, we do not deny.
On the other hand, if, nefarious monster that you are, you were, with great cunning, to walk the 1-2-3 blocks to *EA C'tis* capital. Well, We'd be completely in the wrong position to intercept you. Much to Our dismay, you would have outmaneuvered Us again!
Of course, We'd be *anguished* over the truly grievous hurt you might inflict on poor EA C'tis - after he had bravely, and with great principle and conviction, told everyone to declare war on you right after signing an NAP.
And then, the moment your forces cross his border, bravely bribed LA C'tis and Us to attack you.
Finally, he has been the one courageously taking the brunt of the losses, while LA C'tis and We skulk around the fringes of your empire, cutting off your income at no risk to Ourselves.
Oh, surely, We would weep *tears of blood* to see Our good and noble friend EA C'tis earn some sort of comeuppance, possibly even seeing his own capital *burned to the ground*, for so adroitly engineering your destruction, and then claiming all of your lands for himself!
It would be a sad and terrible day, and so We implore you sir, on your tender mercies, don't do it!
Sincerely yours,
Knife Bright Insight

Now this could be truthful, EA C'tis certainly does not trust Man, or it could be ploy by a desperate nation, Midgard has tried to sway us in the past.
It would be wrong of us to make assumptions when only hearing one side of the story. So EA C'tis would like to hear what MA Man has to say.
