Glory (MA game)- game is live

[JimMorrison]

Joties? That sounds like a slur, my good man! The people of Agartha cannot abide by such racist remarks towards the uncouth but still human(!) Jotunheimians. Not that we care, but our people have been discriminated against throughout history. Young Agarthans with corrective lenses getting teased by the younger races "hey two eyes!", it's indecent, and has led to both a decline in literacy, and an increase in inner-city crime.

Unfortunately, word is that there is a class-action suit being prepared against Eriu for their "Joties" remarks - Agarthan Minority vs the Erians.

[Bwaha]

We agree that many of the younger races have the mistaken belief that the Argathan vision is impaired. but this is not true! we have come to the determination that your peoples eyesight is close to perfect. The logic of this is readly apparent, your people can see without any aids in total darkness. how can that improved? We have tried to imitate (with partial sucsess) your fine ability. so we are sorry if your people have been offended by our call to war. no offence intended. It is our belief that the nation of jotenheim has taken way more of land than is fair to the rest of us. there's many nations that feel the same way. So in closing it is our ardent hope that you will join in this war of justice. It is only fair that you get a portion of the prizes as well. Lord Lucky

[JimMorrison]

While our statesmen would agree that Jotunheim has become quite large, our philosophers contemplate that in relation to the size of their citizens, they may not have overstepped their bounds. Unfortunately, we do still measure gold in pounds, and wine in gallons, and it does seem that there is a disparity in accounts - grossly in favor of the giants.

We shall have to deliberate further on this, Agarthan legal practices are far from swift or clear cut. You may expect a subpoena on the class action suit sometime in the next 35 to 37 years. In the meantime we shall endeavor to ponder how best to expand our interests - bounded by faithful and noble allies on all sides as we are.

[Bwaha]

We await such deliberations with concern. But as in conversing with the Ents, such things take time. But onto more pressing things. You the Jotoenheim have suppressed the independent provinces too long. Retreat to your lands of the south and we will be appeased. Tarry too long and our wrath will not be contained. Lord Lucky

Caelum let's out a squawk. The war fares poorly atm.

[JimMorrison]

It was the squawk heard 'round the world. That is one painful Province count in the graphs..... Time to call in..... CONDOR MAN?!

[chrispedersen]

My spy, before he was soo rudely dispatched was telling me that machaka was rolling up Riyallahs inland provinces. Considering that was all the way in the middle of the board... I sincerely did not know *who* to root for.

Somehow Ryalla in the wastlands was like.. well a fish out of water.

Just wanted to say... great game all!

[Bwaha]

My agents, who due to better magical stealth say much the same. the redistribution of the land is progressing quite well. looking at the graphs something happened to marignon. come on tell us the story of this great battle. someone has a tale to tell. LL

[chrispedersen]

A haggard emissary for the lion of Marignon comes out to address the congress of ambassadors, and specifically to greet the Eriuian ambassador.

Marignon is currently facing 700 Ermorian troops, with 300 more on the way. And these are not your usual undead. They are shadow vestrals, accompanied by archers. Lots and lots of archers.

However, ermor, while formidable, is the lesser foe. Marignon was attacked by surprise by Oceania.

By the way, oceania: We had a nap +3 which you never disavowed. Did you forget that? I distinctly remember a conversation a few turns ago, where you said

"Yes, I have Nap+3 with all my neighbors, and I must decide who to break it with." Obviously, you chose me, however, you did forget about the part about *notifying* me." You have been an honorable neighbor, and I believe you to be an honorable opponent.

Under the terms of the nap, I expect you to withdraw to your borders. Due to the exigencies of the war, I will take that as sufficent to satisfy our previous agreement - and I will look forward to the dogs of war. Oh - and I would also appreciate it if you would cease with the hurricanes, for the duration.

As for other matters Eriu, I would love to tell you that there was glorious battle. But there was not, merely battle! I can tell you only that plans are in place to deal with the matter, and I am confident of success.

Ermor crushed a neighbor of mine, whose last words were "I hope you crush that guy" - and so I shall endeavor to avenge vanheim's demise.

Ermor I shall attack unto my last breath. But I believe the knights of oceania sought to help their ally - which is an honorable thing to do. I sincerely believe the just forgot our peace treaty. And so being honorable I believe they will do their utmost to redress the matter.

Plans take awhile, so please excuse my disheveled appearance. And personal best wishes to the mrs.

Hey guys:

I am going to postpone processing; as short as I can. I have to shut down, reload and redownload the modules.

So the Glory and EA-New servers will be down at 7pm. If I can avoid a processing delay, I will.
