well, it seems there was a simply misunderstanding with our embassy to Abysia; probably a cultural difference.

diplomacy is now underway and progress has been made. There is no war between Abysia and Shinuyama any longer.

[Omnirizon]

in a bold rush Caelum has got Shinuyama in a stranglehold. The Bakemono were little match for large squads of Mammoths backed by legions of Archers. They are seiging our capital now, and it looks like a short run for this nation.

Most of their resources are certianly invested in attempting to overthrow our capital though, and their own is likely undefended. Other nations are encouraged to take advantage before Caelum jumps to a mammoth lead before the first year is even out.

I'd like to remind to anyone tempted by Shinuyama calls that by this time of year Caelum can easily buy a new expansion army everyturn, non-counting the initial one sieging their fortress.

[Omnirizon]

that's right folks. don't attack him now, let him buy new armies every turn till he's trampling across your lands. he's already collecting two caps worth of taxs, plus his other provinces.

Stop the stampede now anyone who can! Drop his income a bit and the elephants will dry up pronto, the last thing we want are hordes of them

Yo Andeans - my computer fried. Work laptop still works but can't watch battles and its painful to do turns. I will still try to be quick but Pythium may lag relative to my usual speedy turn taking self until I can get Dell to make it right again.
