Damn... both players who jumped me have gone AI. Makes you think, don't it?

Pride leads to fall my friend

Hey, after being backstabbed by two people whom I thought were heading towards being allies of mine... your AI's are still giving me a bit of a fight though. Forunately for me they are splitting up that gargantuan army you had chasing after me. I wasn't sure how I was going to deal with that.

You know, I've been backstabbed in four games now, and only been the backstabber in one (well technically two, but the second guy really did deserve it after what he had done earlier).

Don't say you didn't know that was gonna happen when you applied

Lol... I guess I did kind of expand into positions that you two couldn't afford to let me have. I was kind of surprised/grateful that you didn't go underwater though. It is the source of a fair number of gems for me, and you adapt to it naturally... I have to rely on rings of waterbreathing and indy troops. Something to keep in mind for future reference. Even a small force could still be making my life miserable at sea.

Surprised? Wow, I think you did it on purpose to cut my way to the sea

I actually thought it was one great early move for you in sight of a possible future war with me...

Shuts up and listens to the wealth of infomation coming out of victory talk.

Bother I didn't mean to post that! Oh well.

Hey, the peaceloving people of the Democratic Republic of Sauromation have no quarrel with the giants of Neifelheim... plus this war was won almost solely by force of arms. The next war (hopefully far away... I really did want a peaceful early to mid-game) will include a great deal of magic. Take what you wish from my description of how this war was won, however I assure you the next one will be quite different.

Word spreads to all realms carried by messengers traders and minstrels...

Peoples of the world, hear these the words of the great Mortanus of Ermor! The treacherous beasts of the Niefelheim have reneged upon all promises and assurances that we have held in good faith. They march upon the lands they agreed to cede to us despite our honouring of their realm. Beware these untrustworthy dogs.

We call on all the nations of the world to attack our foe now while their armies are occupied with us. You will find their other borders lightly defended, now is the time to strike. There shall never be a better time to move upon them until their homes lie smouldering under the feet of the mighty Ermorian legions. Ermor shall hold those who answer this call in high regard, join with us so we may drive these unholy scoundrels from this land once and for all.

In response to the neferious romours of Ermor, Niefelhelm has sent out a messanger to each major power.

The Jarls are strong, as are our allies. We made no promises to Ermor, we just returned their honeyed words, and attacked them before the men of their nation grew hungry for our lands while our men-folk were elsewhere.

OOC: Heh nice try, unfortunately I actually trust the only other guy I share a border with :P
