As is typical of the west, you assume your eastern neighbors are barbarians, Nero.

Tien Chi and Bandar Log are ancient empires with deep culture. The spirituality of Bandar Log even includes edicts on the romantic relationships of the monkey people, going so far as to offer advice on performing pleasing copulation. We will have a treatise written by one of our revered Vanarian philosophers, Vatsayana, delivered to your castle; if you have been reincarnated with passions beyond poetry, you will the text interesting.

The thinkers of Tien Chi have produced philosophy on filial piety, social welfare, diplomacy, and warfare. Their recent diplomatic maneuvers to smear the honorable image of Bandar Log is typical of their subtle skills.

I did not claim they were barbarians. Not at all. The depth of Tien chi culture is the very reason I wish to set up my play there. But as they would not grant me passage I chose to invade.

I thank you for the treatise, I have heard of Bandar philosophy and have been longing to read it.

The Bandar Log can appreciate your dramaturgical sensibilities, Nero. Art is indeed power.

Work are sending me off to Germany today until Saturday.

I have Dom3 on my work PC

so I hope I will be able to carry on making my turns. As long as I can receive the turns. My hotmail account is blocked at work usually so I will have to try and get the turns to my work account somehow. I will also be able to comunicate with people - but only by pm via this site.

I will only have a couple of short windows to play the game each day.

Sorry for the inconvenience!

I can play turns

Arco is saved

For now....

Long live the Elephants!

And by Elephants I mean Arcoscephale Elephants. Not Caelums substandard hairy Elephants or Bandar Logs so called Elephants which are probably just a bunch of Gorillas monkeying around under a large grey blanket....

what a glorious battle. GLORIOUS!!!

wouldn't you agree Tien Chi?

at the smelter of war the mighty Bandar forge destiny, and quench the glowing blade in the blood of the fallen.

The mighty Bandar, outnumbered almost four to one, stood steady on the field of battle. The brave Markata, chattering with lust for battle, ran before the towering war elephants, drawing the first volley's of enemy fire. The battlemages of Tien Chi unleased fierce bolts of magma, raining fire upon the stout Bandar. Their Red Guard charged our flanks, where the Royal Bandar Swordsmen held them back with steel and strength. The wise and mystic Bandar Rikshi unleashed powerful magics, draining the strength from our enemies, and replenishing our own. Our war elephants ravaged through the ranks of our enemy, trampling all underfoot as the charged for the backline. Our Royal Guard, their fur matted with blood, valiantly defended our own rear from the charging Red Guard.

In the end, of Tien Chi's 200 troops, a mere 40 escaped the wrath of Bandar Log, who stood outnumbered almost four to one. But their might and valor knows no bounds, and they emerged victorious!

Great! I will try and make the delay as short as possible.

Omnirizon · #**150** February 28th, 2008, 11:08 PM

the turns are taking awhile because I delayed the quickhost for extra 24 hours for ermor and oceana, then the following quickhost will also be delayed to a 48 interval to allow pythium time to return.
