Heh Look at who is crying Ermor, *the* giant amongst giants, is afraid of two small nations who stood up to actually give a token fight Yes, almost half of the Machakan troops are at the Ermorian front, that is true, but that hardly is *all* our armies, not even close

It may come as a shock, but the world does not rotate around Ermor. I also have another piece of news: Skellispam and a few netherbolts can take you just so far. Yes, it is alarming that Ermor finally began to research something, but Ermor is the giant on clay feet, and the clay can apparently not carry the weight of the giant; looks like Ermor is about to crumble before there is even any serious push! Then again, if Ermor gets its research going, none of its neighbours will be safe; not the small ones (no matter how united they would stand), not even the big ones.

I have not yet begun to skellispam!

Ctissians have lost hundreds of soldiers and host of mages and is about to face the vengeance of Jotunheim. Ctis is very vulnerable now and we welcome other nations to join our crusade against this filthy nation.

You know, that when you win a battle, but your losses are bigger than the losses of your enemy, then it is called a phyrric victory?

You are not quite correct. This term is about a person who became a winner but is unable to conduct war further. The real Phyrrus always did more harm to his enemies, by the way.

In our situation you've lost almost all your invasion force and I have strong and standing army.

[Digress]

My understanding was he was a magnificent general whose dreams went unfulfilled.

[Euarchus]

I'm Pan - my losses are always bigger than the enemy's!

[Hadrian_II]

C'tis came just under attach by jotunheims vassal vanheim, and we think that this is a sign how desperate they are.

So Jarkko and his spidery minions now make war upon the whole world?

I would have thought the realisation that he has been cruelly used by his so called allies as a cats paw for them to conquer while he gets nothing would have taught him some caution. But apparently not

We have no mutual border so his spidery forces are safe from me at the moment. But while his spell is up he can consider us at war our forces meet.

Really? No matter how hard I look at the map, it doesnt appear my dominion has spread outside my borders, so don't know how that is a declaration of war on everybody. Sure, if you send your troops into Machakan dominion you might suffer, other than that you are safe

Wrath of God strikes the whole world, though it falls more heavily in your dominion. I am losing troops, although I have a few spare to lose at this stage I suspect everyone - friend and foe alike will be suffering from your Global. You are now attacking every other nation on the map - a curious diplomatic move Especially as the spell is pretty rubbish
