Forseti (Started)

[FAJ]

How many of us smaller, obscure nations are left? We should join forces and rise up out of nowhere and sucker-punch somebody!

[Whollaborg]

Bandar Log,

Your scouting marakattas are somewhat lazy we pressume.

Everyone else is trying gangbang the man. We have been sneak attacked by Mictlan, Jotunheim, R'lyeh and this means without declaration of war as we didn't have a non-agression pact. We had a non-agression pact with the Agartha. But now they have cowardly broken their oath without agreed forewarning of three turns. The miserable bastard pretender of this lowly nation will now face the fury of man as the oathbreakers have always been the cum of this world!

Mictlan has tartarians, icedevils, djinn, gargoyle and a thousand strong terrible armies runnining wild in the man's land and headed by the Smaug herself they are besieging our fortress that strategically rules the former Tien Chi land, which is now occupied by the Mictlan. Mictlan owns uncotested western continent.

R'lyeh is making hordes of gems under all waves of the world.

All of Southern continent is divided by the thickskulled giants and miserable oathbreakers the Agartha who's name is hereby cursed to eternity. Such is the disgrace their foolish leaderhip has brought into the very soul of the cavedwellers.

Three nations have gathered to make the pretender of Mictlan, the birdie Smaug, the only god who will surely banish those slave minded pretenders who all have defacto allied with überstrong Mictlan and thus are hastening their own downfall.

We would like to invite you, Mighty Bandar Log to join in this cataclysmic fight against the Mictlan. We cannot promise you victory as the armies that are splashing against the walls of the erect towers of man are many indeed and mighty is the income of magical gems that our enemies benefit each month. Only the glory resists and our dim hope is your swift and merciless occupation of the eastern provinces that spam the world with unholly and bloody Mictlan hordes. Man will fight 1000 Mictlan blessed troops in the Former Tien Chi land and our own capital! Man will fight against abominations of R'lyeh from under the waves! Man will fight against the Jotuns, whose obelisk Pretender was nearly destroyed if our golem wouldn't accidently had dropped he's head (damn)! Man will fight against the oathbreakers, the cursed nation of Agartha!

Let's see if the glory in the letters of the word Bandar Log will burst into flames to write their mark into the Pages of History or will the Bandar Log go gently down, without a fight.

Now decide in the name of Glory!

Zhukov of the Man

[FAJ]

That is pretty effective rhetoric, and monkeys are easily swayed. I really don't like it when people gang up on a player, even if he is one of the top 2.

The problem is, if I get into a war with Mictlan, it would be against the entire alliance which is against you as well. If they sectioned even a small portion of their forces away from you, to attack me, I would be overwhelmed for certain.

Like Agartha, I have no late-game strategy, because I didn't expect to live so long. It is my first time with Bandarlog and I don't really have a cohesive strategy. I put all my research into paths just to test out the unique summons and get a feel for what the Bandar have to offer, but I am without a real battle plan.

Helping you may even backfire, as Mictlan would usurp all of my lands and become even more powerful and have more access to you.

Either way, I break all my Agreements now, and I will decide which one of you gets to kill me when the agreed turn limit is up. In the meanwhile, I suggest you buy a "Cooking with monkey meat" cookbook, because you will have a lot of of it, and monkey spoils quickly!

[Whollaborg]

We thank you Mighty Bandar Log, for your proud decision and thus salute your hairy hands with the ancient sign of High Fife to show our gratitude,

We will invite thus the Champions of the Monkeys to join the Round Table as Knights of the Chalice! You are invited to join the Holy Quest led by the little bit round but nevertheless shiny knight, the head of the Round Table, King Arthur!

The Chalice has to be taken from the demonic hands of the Bloody Mictlan! They have used the Chalice wrongly to poison minds of elder gods already and the poison seeps from the Chalice until it has rightly returned to the hands of the Lady of the Lake who shall use it to heal, not to poison.

Don't worry about your frendship to backfire, the times have been dire to men for a long time. Our enemies distill atleast 100 or much more magical gems from the global enchantments alone a month. They gain roughly 200-400 gems from the provinces they own and no one knows how many clams they have forged in their dark hiding places under the waves, rocky caves, and holes in the muddy ground...

We have been in defensive against Mictlan for a year and most of their slavepretenders around a half a year but they are getting stronger each month and we doubt that we could last for another year. You have to remember that the only gains of men have been the ravaged lands of self murdering Tien Chi which offered us virtually no income while Mictlan has covered half of the map for years after years and the strenght of Mictlans three slavepretenders is big as well. R'lyeh has concuered most of the ocean including Oceania and Jotunheim and Agartha ganged brave Ulm together after a many years of struggle, two on one. We are not able to count how many nations fell to Mictlan hands in the early days of these wars.

Men have had not much but their courage. Now a new hope rises with the forged alliance between the hairy and the less hairy people of the north and west!

Perhaps the pretenders subjucated by the Mictlan trickery will see that they are not going to gain anything with war against the man as the Mictlan has been blocking and is still going to block all the possible venues of advance to gain even small pieces of land from the men.
Perhaps they will see that foolishnes of supporting the one might that has already musteres a incredible power against the world.

Perhaps we can make peace with R'lyeh for we have no interest in what lies beneath the waves. Perhaps we can make peace with the Giants of the Jotunheim, as we respect the stubborness of the thick skull and would not like to harm the giant babies of the Jotun hags in the mountains.

We would like to make peace even with the Agartha as we are doubting that they are less educated in the ways of the surface, as they have lived for ages in the darkness with no knowledge of the respectable social behavior and might just be learning.

Highfiving,
Zhukov

If Man only had the lands of TC, then how is it that the Giants can battle Man's advances in the southeast, and the Agarthans can reclaim territory that is rightfully theirs in the southwest? Man's vast empire even extends under the waves of the ocean.

And in the Oceans, the Starspawn make their own secret plans. Their actions are as much as mystery to Mictlan as they are to Man. Mictlan gains no benefit from the Nexus R'lyeh has created, other than the hope that Man may curtail his casting and forging. But judging by the volume of rituals falling on our armies, that may not be the case.

In the year since Mictlan has established our beachhead, we have only traded the lands of TC back and forth with Man. 700 soldiers of Man guard the strategic great fortess in TC at Rockness Hills, which Man claims Mictlan has under a siege. It is impossible that Bandar could have a spy there, for Man's fierce patrollers prevent any such activity. But any Markata in a bordering province can clearly see the castle is not under siege, and thus are the lies of Man exposed.

It is amusing that Man cannot count the number of former conquests of Mictlan, for that number is one. And that fight was brought on only at the urgings of Bandar, who were rightfully wary the reign of terror the centaurs were spreading across the plains.

It is Bandar's right to disengage themselves from their diplomatic agreements. But they should know Mictlan has no desire to own the rich lands of Man, as we have told them many times. We only seek to avert the ascendance of the evil Zhukov, who through his Forges has monopolized the Artefacts of the world.

Man's words are sweet but poisonous. If our advance fails and Man retains the treasures of the land, and then all will be hard pressed to prevent the ascension of the evil Zhukov.

Due to unfortunate situation with my family i am 90 per cent sure that i will be unable to make my turn this evening.

Perhaps the host could be ably to delay the process for 12-14- hours?

I'll pm lamaserver as well.

[FAJ]

Hosting postponed for Forseti by 14 hours. The game will now host at 17:05 GMT on Saturday April 19th.

[Cerlin]

Yes Now that I have looked at my situation with a lot more experience, I sadly could have done a lot more had I had the general experience. I have the Wizards tower with awesome picks, A good rainbow pretender, and a decent position. The problem is im about 40 turns to late to take advantage of it!

Haha But yes My attacking of man was less about malice and more about the fact sitting in corner waiting to die isnt conductive to anyone. At least by attacking it will be decided soon whatever my fate is too be. At least the Old, Diseased, and dying of Agartha go down like the proud race they are. It is not that we are dishonorable, it is that we have no choice.

[vfb]

The Jaguars and Eagles of Mictlan made a decision that a strong offense would be the best defense against what we expected to be an attack from Bandar. An attack which did not materialize!

Now Mictlan is in the slightly awkward position of having attacked Bandar while simultaneously destroying our army in the failed storming of Man's capitol.

Onwards and Upwards, I say! At least it can't get any worse, can it?

[FAJ]

Could be worse; You could be Bandar Log!
