As I just posted you within the game...

The only chance to hold back the giants from the world is to let me recruit my 30-melee-damage seal guards again! My mages and troops are ideally set to fight the Niefel giants... but to do so, you'll have to let me use them!

No-one will stale, I will turn off the host interval tomorrow morning.

Hmmm, and all I have to do is allow you to move straight through my territory so you can move forthwith to confront said nasty, evil giants right? Such a deal!

Well, sad to say I have yet to inflict a single casualty upon the Niefelscum, but given what I've seen of your cavemen, I have even less confidence in the chance of their even so much as landing a blow upon these giants!

Our demands:
1) Abyssia should stop interfering with the internal affairs of Marverni, so that we may restore a legitimate democratic government and then withdraw (a timetable for such withdrawl would only embolden the bare chested anarchists.)

2) The vile eunuchs of T'ien Ch'i have overthrown the legitimate Emperor and installed a false and despicable God in his place. Their usual crimes: pederasty, incontinence, sophistry, we need not go into the details, are bad enough. However, the imposition of a false emperor is intolerable to freedom loving giants such as ourselves, and we call upon all the people of T'ien Ch'i to aid us in restoring the rightful Emperor to the jade throne.

Your friend,
Knife Bright Insight,
Iron Lord of the Jotuns

Nah, we'll even stay on the peninsula if it'd make you feel better! (Besides, don't you need that big army sitting uselessly outside my cave fort for your own defense?) The Niefel giants originally claimed to be sailing to my aid, but their list of crimes and demands conspicuously omits Tien Chi's misdeeds against Agartha; plus, Niefelheim promised specific military aids over the past year but never made good.

Given these facts, we trust Niefel giants no more than we do Tien Chi humans... but we know by now that Tien Chi not scary, but Niefelhim pretty scary! The Emperor has two choices: let us free to recruit and fight, or soon face a war on both fronts...

And worry not, we have a few different tricks up our pale pasty sleeves in case of giants, things not worth doing on little humans but good for softening up bigger mountain giants!

Abyssia attacked me!

I said that I couldn't guarantee when I'd be able to attack - and even so, I believe that I did launch on schedule.

That said, we are prepared for all of your earth and death tricks, should you wish to tangle.

I'm not faulting you for your arrival time, I'm faulting you for never sending me those promised fire gems

So, um- who's got Astral magic out there?

Because as long as those giants are recuperating, the rest of us might as well call it quits and go home.

I've got my last turn in now, before my trip. I will certainly be able to play again on the morning of the 16th, PST (GMT-8), or perhaps earlier than that.

OK, I've seen the enemy, and in my honest opinion, its game over. Dr Praetorious - you play cat and mouse with us. I have not the least, little clue why, with such overwhelming force you have not taken a single VP. Surely you are beyond capable of such, correct?

You far outclass every player in research, and equally outclass us in gem resource to use that research. Now as long as any player thinks they have a chance against him, I'll not quit, but do you Mictlan or Abysia still think you have a chance?
