Troubling Times: Game over, Marverni wins

[Amhazair]

I seem to have a surplus of F and W gems, while lacking S, D, and E. I'd be willing to trade these kinds of gems at 1,2:1 ratio if anyone is intrested. I'd also accept payment in A gems at 1:1.

(Despite having only very partially searched my lands for F and W, while S and E are fully searched Ah, well, them's the breaks.)

After a long and bloody struggle with Hinom, the Mighty Empire of Ermor is finally on the eve of triumph over the giant menace.

It is a good time for the young empire, its now-elite legions continue to pacify more land every month, and the new faith has taken hold strongly in Gomorrah, once the seat of the mighty giant race.

What better time to announce our new crusade to bring (Ermorian) civilization and culture to the savage borderlands:

The strange tribes of Mictlan are said to eat babies and bathe in blood! Surely this is an afront to the new faith! We thus declare the Mictlan lands that border us to be a protecterate of Ermor...in the name of peace and civilization .

Edit:

BTW, Good game Graeme (might as well say it now), you played well and it was another good fight. I think it was unlucky for you that my opening strategy happened to be very well suited to countering giants and thugs, I surely thought I was screwed when I realized who my first neighbor was...but it turns out early mass-smite is a dangerous thing for small, elite armies

We do have to stop starting next to each other in every game though since this is like the third time in a row now, heh.

I'm looking to buy a rather large number of blood slaves to kickstart a minor blood economy and am willing to pay 13g/slave. If I remember correctly this should be almost twice what it costs bless nations with poor scales to produce them (mage upkeep + lost gold from lowering taxes.) and still close to 30% profit for scale monster builds. Payment might have to be spread over several turns if the supply is high.

In order to further experiment with the peculiar winds of this World, Caelum is purchasing Air gems, and can pay in Water gems, at a 1,2 / 1 ratio.

Done!

Though the grumbling part of my personality compels me to add that giving a reason for the dealy is the considerate thing to do, and is appreciated by both your fellow players and the long-suffering game admin.

Poor Betty. Deserted by all his troops in the end. No where to run. You will have no toes for your collection. If only you had listened to reason. If only your Bandit commanders were not so inept as to be caught sneaking into Helheim territory, thus giving away your plans. The Hangdrotts of Heheim have reserved you a special spot in Tartarus. Do not be too sad. Our Goddess, Tamala, plans on summoning you back from your torment to serve her in your undeath. You will be her personal play thing until she tires of you and sends you back to Tartarus.
