Macedonia to Carthage:

It appears a piece of parchment fell out of the treaty Egypt sent you because this item is also included in the terms:

Carthage may not possess any more than 40 warships.

Go ahead, reject the terms. Because our armies are just itching to tear apart your lands. If Carthage cannot even offer a reasonable counter-proposal, the war will go on. And the terms of the treaty will only get harsher as you make us expend more effort to conquer you.

Our apologies for the oversight.

Egypt to Sparta:
Would you be interested in importing fine freshwater fish from the Nile? We could offer you a special price of just 9 talents a turn. We'd also be willing to trade you our paper at 5 talents a turn.

Egypt to Bosporian Greece:
We'd like to offer you the chance to import our paper at the same low price as Sparta: 5 talents a turn. Are you interested?

Lydian Complete Orders Remove this text

These include the partial orders already posted earlier.

The war has brought about a reorganization of the armed forces.
ARMY
Lydian Army - Sardes - 10,900 horsemen; 18,700 foot soldiers; 200 swordsmen, 2,500 hoplites
Six City Patrols – Siver mine, Pergamon, Ephesos, Miletos, Halicarnassos, Phaselis – 500 horsemen, 1,000 foot soldiers.
Southern Army – Aspendos – 1,000 horsemen, 3,000 foot soldiers, 3,000 hoplites
NAVY
Agean Fleet – Knossos - 35 triremes (200 horsemen, 1,800 foot soldiers, 700 swords
500 hoplites)
Lydian Fleet - Halicarnassos - 32 triremes (400 horsemen, 500 foot soldier, 1,200 swordsmen, 500 hoplites)

[10 talents]Road improvements
[10 talents]Mine improvments
[20 talents]Fortress for Southern Army at Aspendos
[10 talents]Additional barracks for new troop posts
[20 talents]Buy 1,400 swordsmen at Miletos
[30 talents]Buy 10 triremes at Miletos

Soldiers will now be based at all cities and our mine to reduce banditry so suitable facilities will need to be constructed where they did not exist before.

Aspendos is the gateway between Persia and Lydia. To foster stronger and greater openess with our most important trading partner we have reduces the Southern Army. Instead we will construct a fortress to guard the coastal plain. This fortress shows our strength but reveals our peacful intentions.

The most we offer is 300 talents.

These items are non-negotiable

quote:

To begin, Carthage will surrender control of all land from the grain resource west of Leptis Magna. This land will henceforth be controlled by Egypt and Macedonia.

Next, Carthage will allow Egyptian and Macedonian colonies in Iberia to be founded and grow without limit. Any interference with these colonies will be considered an act of war.



These items are negotiable. Here is our amended suggestion, taking into account the issues Carthage must face to maintain internal security, we have relaxed the terms to the following:

quote:

Carthage will have no more than 40,000 troops total in their army, of which no more than 40 will be elephants.

Carthage will have no more than 60 warships.


You will have to speak separately with Egypt about the minimum amount of gold they are willing to accept as compensation. We cannot negotiate for them in that regard. However, peace is a two-part deal: If you want peace with Macedonia, you will have to make peace with Egypt.

Egypt to Macedonia and Carthage:
We are not as firm about needing colonies in Iberia, that one's Macedonia's demand. We will be willing to lower our monetary condition to 75 talents. We also accept the military size limit terms Macedonia has proposed.

Egypt to Crete:
We regret to inform you that we will no longer be importing your marble, it's just not profitable at this time and we need to spend our money on rebuilding. When we need to import marble, we'll keep you in mind.

After many long hours of debate in the Carthaginian autocracy, the Carthaginians are willing to accept peace, if, Egypt and Macedonia pay Carthage 100 talents each, cede all areas up to Ammonion to Carthage, do not put troops near Carthage, and give up Alexandrograd to Carthage. In short, no way will we accept your peace proposal. We will fight for every inch of Carthaginian soil, every resource, every city, every farm.

The Old King Demetrius is dead. His son, Antigonus II, now rules Macedonia. He has taken power and gained support from the nobles with his quick command over the army, and has announced his intentions to continue policies to strengthen the Kingdom of Macedon and Hellas and continue to work with peasants and nobles and city dwellers.

Does everyone else have their orders in? I know mine are, and Rome, Lydia, and Macedonia. I think Persia's in too.

By the way, Micha, I'd just like to confirm that the grain shipments to Persia and Rome will be going out this term, barring further interference.

Ah, darn, I knew that would happen. I´m almost done with the update, but I got to leave now.
Parts of the Egyptian orders and the Roman invasion of Syracuse are still lacking, but the rest is done. I wanted to post a partial update, but considering it won´t be completed within the next weeks anyway, there´s no point to it.

I am very sorry guys. It was just too little time, but when I come back from holidays we will get rolling again

A little spoiler so you can plan your next steps:
- Rome did well in gaul, fielding an army of 40,000 men against the Celts. All of the Rhodanus River valley up to La Tene has been annexed. The road network couldn´t be completed because of lacking funds.
- Macedonia defeated the Dacians, though did not annihilate them. No other Barbarian movements have been reported.
- Lydia launched an offensive against Crete, almost annihilating the enemie´s Fleet which has been pulled back to Naxos. Several Islands have been plundered, both Crete and Naxos are blockaded and now starving.
- Persia didn´t do much anyway. A few horsemen have been sent to Egypt, the Attusa mines secured but no settlement was left there so mining hadn´t been resumed yet.
- Carthage pulled back from Cyrenaica, Macedonians and Egyptians encountered almost no ressitance since all cities had been evacuated. No valuables were to be found there, though several traps and poisoned food and water supplies caused some (rather small) casualties amongst the Eastern armies.

Any orders sent from now on won´t be included in the update anyway. Again, sorry... Will make up for it when I return

While Micha's gone, we should try to get either the Fall of Rome NES or the modern one up and running again, or maybe even a new modern one if people prefer. If people still have a reason to come to the S&D section, this NES is less likely to die.

How long's he gone for, anyway?

Persian Emperor, Morgan Freeman, Has fallen ill with an ocular deficiency due to the many grains of sand that have been swept into his eyes from his Persia tour with the entire Persia Posse.

As a result he has sought the most highly esteemed in Medical Technology to assist him with his deflicted eye. He made the long trek across the Arctic Tundra mile after mile to St. Alphonzo's Pancake House.

St. Alphonzo has given him a special ocular concoction that has left his pupils extremely widened.

Attached is a picture of the legendary Freeman in his currently debilitated state.
