To Neifelheim,

Anodyr to us was more than just a battle. It was a symbol to our people that no matter how intimidating and powerful, any foe can be conquered. We hold no illusions that we can compete alone against the evil alliance you have forged with Vanheim, but we do hope the battles over the last few months have shown the world that all is not lost and there is still hope.

As our people curse your pretender, and his unscrupulous ascent to power, we do respect your warriors. The giants that fought so bravely in Anodyr had no chance of retreat, and while many tried to flee the field in panic, the true giants of old stayed the course and fought to the bitter end.

All were killed, including the ones who tried to flee. Let it be known that the giants that fought with their last breath will be buried in their frosty halls. Ships have set sail to the south not to make war, but to return the bodies of these brave warriors that we have grown to respect so much.

We recognize that the chances of peace between our two nations is slim to none, and at this very moment you aid Vanheim, by allowing them safe passage through your lands into ours. We have seen the Vanheim war machine first hand, a keep in every province turning out Vans to annihilate the entire world.

We our a people of honor. As was promised, you are now expelled from our rightful lands and the talks of peace can begin if you so wish. We do not know what the future holds, and we can only speculate at the power of the evil force that stirs in the South, but a victory is a victory, and the glimmer of hope has been restored to our people.

With the attacks on the nation of Oceania by R'yleh and Nifelhiem we have been forced to call all nations to take a side. Will you stand for justice and valor with Oceania and Vanheim or will you go down in history as the weak who slobbered at the feet of the strong?

make your choice...

[Sheap]

I assure you, the (apparently) simultaneous attacks by our nation and Niefelheim are purely coincidental. While we have good relations with the giants, our military operations are not coordinated with theirs.

To all unaligned nations, I assume you are all sufficiently occupied with your own problems to take an interest in what is entirely an aquatic dispute between Oceania and R'lyeh.

[Whollaborg]

To all filled with fear,

There's no alliance between Niefelheim and Vanheim.

Because of necessity we have been to common wars against Ermor and now Caelum that attacked Vanheim after Niefelheim attacked them.

Vanheim wishes now nothing more than time to lick our scratches and build prosperous well being for Vanir, Ermorean and Caelians the same.

As was promised, you are now expelled from our rightful lands and the talks of peace can begin if you so wish.

Then peace shall be. You fought bravely and a honourable battle. When Vanheim cut my supply lines (now why do you think he is my ally?), I had no chance against you. I was hopeing that your missbelieve of my alliance with Vanheim will make you think I'm stronger and you will accept a pace and I can set foot on your continent. You did well not accepting it and earning your lands and reputation with blood.
With Vanheim we are drifting towards a cold war, not alliance, since I attacked one of his allies in the same time (but not alliance) with R'yleh.

To C'Tis: The time when the mighty god of the Sons of Winther will trear it's chains is near. Our peace agreement stands until that time. I'm waiting for your proposal for the future... Until it's too late.

Well it's not that near is it? It's about twelve months away isn't it?

Indeed, 10 more turns... Give or take a few.

[Kydorias]

Lord DreamSlayer of Neifelheim,

As far as I am concerned, I will continue to honor a non-aggression pact between our two nations. If in the future I should decide that a further buffer zone is needed between my capital and your provinces, I will notify you beforehand in order to allow you proper time to mount an adequate defence. Your past honorable actions demand no less from me.

I will recommend to you, however, that should you decide to march upon my lands, be sure you are at war with no one else for you will take heavy losses.

--Kydorias

[WSzaboPeter]

Kydorias,
My dear friend, I wish peace as much as you do. If I wanted to destroy you, I could have done it ages ago. In the other hand I left you to prosper and gain strenght, for I think your men/lizards are honourable fighters and they are better as allies then slaves. I wish you no harm, quite the contrary, I wish to propose an alliance to you, if your hearth bears no grudge against me or R'yleh, my trusted friend.

To Atlantis and Caelum:
I wish to offer peace to you. In the past we may had some minor missunderstandings that led to a full scale war, but as with Pangaea, I hope the war will end, and a new age of freedom and happyness will come.

To Jörund, The Prophet of Vanheim:
Our nations are very close to the end of the peace. When your warriors slew my prophet and my best warrior, and took ten magic items I started to suspect that your intentions are somewhat hostile, but many other Gods told me, that we are allies. I still don't understand this, but if so many GODS tell me that allies tend to kill each other as a sign of friendship, I may accept it. But since our numbers dwindled in this friendship I propose finding another way of showing it, like trade or leaving each other alone...
Thanks a lot, my dear friend.

With the upcoming Thanksgiving holiday in the US, has any thought been given to stopping the turn timer? I will still manage to play my turns but sometimes games do stop or slow down on holidays.
