I am the Vox Inannum, Babylonian Minister of Horde Affairs, the ambassador assigned to your glorious nation. I see that you have been in communications with Beta and Kloreep. Their tasks in Babylon have necessitated that duties be delegated. Be assured that I have authority to deal with your nation in all matters. As for military unit co-ordination, please stay in contact with our great General Kloreep. He has been making our moves. Copy me so that I can stay in the loop.

I request to know who I should be dealing with in diplomatic matters. Are there others of the Horde that should be copied? You can reach me at theidiots@yahoo.com.

Our Three Nation Alliance is strong and brings glory to all of us. The public threads show that the pathetic Desolators finally figured out our Three Nation Alliance. Is now the time to make this official and public?

Let us continue to strengthen this friendship and share technologies and information. We are always open to making deals of this type with your people.

The losses sustained by our allies, the Bards of Euphorica, were felt by all of us in Babylon. The loss to the TNA will not be forgotten. The Babylonian Horses are in place and ready. As I write, the battle might already be raging. May our shared victory over Desolation Row be swift.

Glory to the Three Nation Alliance!
Praise to Inanna,

Well the war is a foot

We had a slight change of plans and moved 2 into the heart of DR lands, where we were going to move 1.

I will send a pic along when I return from sleep and work, or looking at the time, that will be work then sleep

Please accept my apologises on Currency, my noggen' must be soft, I was sure it was to be completed last turn, when in fact it is this coming turn. Please contact me regarding this matter if you have any questions.

Be well and we hope all goes well for you in bring your horses up ready for the charge on Aquarius.

If they moved 2, they're 9-9 of Antioch.

Interesting move. I guess they want to be in range to help with Aquarius. Better hope DR doesn't have many Immortals left, though, to put their units out on grass like that.

Now, they seem to both expect our free tech.

Before, I would have wanted gold. But seeing how many shields Euphorica has sacrificed in this war, and how many BOH stands to sacrifice, perhaps we can let this one slide?

I just sent this to Paddy via PM and email:
quote:

Hail Paddy of the Horde!

Are there any acceptable terms for peace with DR short of extermination? Babylon, BOH, and Eu have been asked to lay something down on the table.

Eu seems to have made it clear in the Peace thread that this answer is no.

Do we believe that AM and LB will remain neutral if TNA comes off as warmongers? Do we want a 3 on 3 war?

I believe TNA needs a summit so that we can give answers as a united alliance. There should be no seperate peace.

What are your thoughts?

I am not sure where 1889 gets off on trying to push for peace.

Could you dispatche, say 100 bowmwn and masses of horse and go visit that land of the Vampires

A summit is indeed a great investment. Many of the Horde have that desire as well. I will have our Ambassadors start to communicate with Plato, and thus you.

AM and LB neutral... an interesting thought... very interesting
is it all propaganda...?

We will be in touch soon, sorry I have not been writting lately, work is on at the moment

Paddy of the Horde,
Yes a TNA summit is a great idea. We need to speak with one voice in regards to this war.

Regarding the 100 bowmen. Great idea. Babylon was wondering what to do with all these troops. I am of course just kidding. We wish to keep peace with the vampiric nation as long as possible. They have done nothing to provoke Babylon and except for their rumored thirst for blood seem friendly enough.

We look forward to the summit.

Please know that we have sent Currency and Construction to Babylon, and Currency to Euphorica this turn.

May the Gods favour you Great babylon with the hope of a great benefit to all of the TNA in your upcoming bonus technology.

It certainly is hoped that you will indeed forward this back to both Euphorica and the Horde "accepted" this very turn, allowing us all to get on with a new line of research. The future certainly does look quite spectacular.

We look forward to the up coming TNA Summit that Lord Skrob has mentioned in correspondence.

Members and Leaders of the TNA,

If the TNA Summit is to happen soon, I humbly suggest that the three team leads (PaddyTheScott, Snoopy369, & Beta) hammer out a time and place. If we leave this unassigned - it will not happen. Just human nature.

Babylon looks forward to the glorious future of TNA.

Everyone needs a little TNA!

Need to send to BoH Avatar Enlargement: We've got the solution

DR is in Middle Ages. DR has Monotheism, We are also in MA, with Feudalism. If DR is researching Feudalism, very likely, sending Feudalism to both you AND Euph will make Feud cheaper for DR.

Does BoH ABSOLUTELY NEED Feud now? If they do (which Kloreep & I think that they really might not, being further from front, any slow movers would take a while to get their, if upgraded next turn), we have no problems sending it to them. Just so that they realize that, with DR's GA, Feud willl be a fast tech, faster with more civs knowing it. Would they mind if we were to withhold Feud from them, until needed to research Chiv? If they don't need it, right now, would they mind the same with Euph(getting it later instead of now)?

Tell them, that we beleave that Euph likely needs it much more than they possibly could need it, at this point in time.

Tell them, that it our concern that DR would profit by our alliance cheapening that tech. We don't want that to happen or if need be, to reduce it as much as possible.

Also need to send this picture to BoH. They might find it interesting. There are 4 Barb horses 4 of ours on Mountain, 8 Barbs at 7 and 4 at 8 (next to DR Iron). Consevably, DR might have 12 Barbs sitting on that Iron, very, very soon. If anything, they will see the 4 barbsand have to react to them.

My email to Paddy with a cc to Snoopy369 of Eu:

quote:

Paddy and Lords of the Horde,

We are NOT backing out of this deal. He is E_T's logic for the delay. Tells us what you think of it and let's move forward.

I must apologize. This information was requested to be sent to you late Saturday (7/9) after I had checked the site. I had other obligations this weekend. I am most sorry if my delay have cause ill will between our nations. Do not blame Babylon. Blame Skrobism.

Below E_T writes of "others riding out coat tails", the "others" are non-TNA members.

[From E_T:]
DR & LB are both in Middle Ages. DR has gotten Monothesism as their free tech.

So, what does this mean to TNA and the tech deals?

1) While DR is alive AND they haven't traded Mono to anyone else, that tech is cheaper to anyone else. That tech will be 'discounted' while they are still alive, but IF they don't trade it before they are eliminated, then the tech cost goes back to the Base amount. IF they DO trade it, then the tech cost will be further discounted, with their elimination. So, we want to try to keep them alive long enough for them to trade it to someone else.

2) As We KNOW what tech we will have (Feudalism), the other members of TNA can start researching Mono, headed towards Chiv. As we DON'T want DR to get Feud, with MI's & Pikes, we want to try to keep the cost of Feud as high as possible. This would require us to NOT trade it to the others in TNA.

Of cource, Kloreep pointed this out in chat, that our allies might be counting on upgrading to Pikes and MI's. Well, for one, BoH isn't very close AND with theirmostly horseman Army (with Ancient Cav), do they need to have Pikes/MI's and would they even get their in time to even be of help? Now, Euph is definately closer, so they might be really counting on Feud to help redress the balance with Upgrades. But still, would it really help?

The danger here is to let the others "ride our coattales" and profit from having a cheaper tech to recearch. over the same time frame, that gives them more gold to make upgrades.

As we know what tech we will have, the others can immediately start on researching Mono and they wom't need Feud, until they are close to finishing with Mono (for the Chiv Path to be open). So, we should make the other teams work against the Maximun that they can spend, instead of letting them make more gold/ and/or with faster research times.

It defetes the purpose of this alliance, as we want ourselves to make te most of what we produce and that is to keep from letting them from speed up their research/

HPotW E_T
[/E_T]

A similar post from E_T...

[From E_T:]
DR is in Middle Ages. DR has Monotheism, We are also in MA, with Feudalism. If DR is researching Feudalism, very likely, sending Feudalism to both you AND Euph will make Feud cheaper for DR.

Does BoH ABSOLUTELY NEED Feud now?

Tell them, that it our concern that DR would profit by our alliance cheapening that tech. We don't want that to happen or if need be, to reduce it as much as possible.

E_T
[/E_T]

Basically, we believe that we can keep the cost of the tech higher for DR until the last possible moment. Then transfer it to Eu and BOH. Babylon is NOT trying to back out of a deal.

If this is NOT acceptable to BOH we can proceed as originally planned. Babylon's goal is not to hurt DR while keeping this alliance strong. We hope that BOH sees the logic and wisdom in this.

I again beg your forgiveness in delay of this transmission. I hope that you see that by sending you posts from our private thread we mean to remain open with you.

Humbly yours,
-Skrobism
