The olive branch has been extended.

Greetings Lord Nosferatu,

I must say that the hospitality of the Palace of Transylvania is without equal. The Palace is a .most interesting.place. The nightlife seems to be the most active in the entire world!

The Great Council of The Blood Oath Horde was most pleased that you extended this invitation to me. They have authorized me to discuss all issues with your great nation. We are interested in reaching agreements in many different areas. We are most interested in, as a sign of good faith, discovering which areas that we can be of assistance to your needs. Is there a particular area that you would like to address?

There are many things in which our great nations can co-operate. For example, our Blood Cell Intelligence agents range far and wide. They lurk in the shadows of many capitals.they listen.they watch. We are often in position to expose alliances that may not be what they seem. This kind of information may be available to a trusted allie. We are interested in developing this type of trust with your nation, where such information exchanges would be possible.

Blood Oath Horde scientists are also diligent and productive. They have discovered the most amazing technologies. Our people, merchants and military have flourished with the knowledge that they provide. We always, however, are interested in obtaining more knowledge. We feel that the flow of knowledge among friends is the best way for both nations to excel.

Great Lord Nosferatu, we are interested in learning your level of interest in these and all matters of interest to our nations. I will be dispatching a rider to Khan's Blood Hall very soon with my preliminary report. I would love to be able to include some ideas on our relationship with this rider.

I am at your service.

Time to start working on the Lost Boys again

quote:
Greetings Lord Nosferatu!

As ambassador for the Horde, I must offer my apologies for being remiss in keeping in contact with you. I have been off exploring a strange and interesting land called Florida. Simply an amazing place.

The hospitality that I received on my last visit to your capital was all the rage with the Horde! Many Great Leaders have asked after vacationing possibilities in Transylvania. We have noted, with much joy, that your great people have undertaken the building of a great wonder in that marvelous city. It is hoped that your people will experience the same joy and wonder that ours did upon completion of a great wonder of the world.

As I am sure that you are aware, we have sadly been forced to engage your neighbors, Desolation Row, in armed struggle. This was a most unpleasant and difficult choice that our council made. The details of that decision can be made available to you if you so desire. The reason that I bring this up is one of coutesy to our friendship with all the peoples of the Lost Boys. As conflict may be taking place near your territory, we wish to address any concerns you may have and to determine your feelings on this most unfortunate conflict.

The Great Council of the Horde wishes you to know that we consider our friendship a strong one and that our relationship of trust and co-operation become one that will be a beacon of hope in an ever increasingly dangerous world.

With warmest regards,

PLATO
Ambassador of the Blood Oath Horde

Does anyone know anything about the play style of Mr. 1889? Since he's playing this on his own, then his style of play is the only thing we need to consider.

To me he seems like a builder type, but someone who has played against him will be able to better assess his style.

1889's reply:

quote:
Ambassador Plato,

It is good to hear that you had an agreeable trip. I do not care for
Florida myself. Rather too much sunlight for me. Unfortunately I must
already trouble you with matters of international relations.

I had a brief discussion with Killer Khan about trade. I will soon have
spare wine and a harbor. Would you like to trade resources? A harbor would
seem to be the best method as we have already sailed around this continent
and a road would have to be built through long and difficult terrain.

Put an end to popups!

The offer is made....

quote:
Greetings Great Lord Nosferatu!

I have taken the request for a harbour to the great council of The Horde. I am sad to report that although there is a great desire to trade with your esteemed nation, that the Horde does not currently have the ability to construct such an improvement.

We are, however, very honoured by your offer and would like to suggest an alternative means of co-operation. There has been much discussion of your most marvelous nation and all are in agreement that the Lost Boys are a people that we want as true friends and allies.

As I am sure that you are aware, the Horde has been forced to take up arms against your neighbor, Desolation Row. In doing this, we find ourselves working toward the same purpose as the Euphorican people. It seems that Desolation Row has menaced more than just us. We have concluded that none are safe while their immortals roam free.

This brings me to the point of the mission my Great Khan has sent me on. We would like your assistance in quelling this most despicable regime. The Khan has stated time and again that the Horde has little desire for territorial gain in your region of the world. We would, therefore, be most pleased if the Lost Boys were to gain the territory lost by the Desolation Row. Were you to grant this assistance, it would be most worth your county's effort.

We look forward to having the great people of the Lost Boys standing side by side with those of the Horde as our nations work to make the world a safer place. Members of The Red Guard stand ready to co-ordinate with you on all matters persuant to this noble task that we ask you to undertake with us.

Please let us know your response at your earliest convienience Great Lord.

1889's sad reply:

quote:
Ambassador Plato,

I don't understand how the Mighty Horde or the Fearsome Euphoricans have been forced into war against Desolation Row.

The land you propose I take is rich and valuable. The cost in shields I would expend to take and hold it and the enmity and distrust that such an assault would create are not worth it however.

While I must decline your offer of alliance, I hope we will find many other opportunities for cooperation. It will be a while before my luxuries are available for trade, so with your permission I will bring it up again later.

a new attempt...

quote:
Lord Nosferatu,

Greetings Great Lord! I have just come from the barracks in Bloodview and I
must tell you there is sadness among the men there that they will not have the
opportunity to fight next to our great friends, The Lost Boys.

The Khan and I discussed your response while watching a demonstration of riding
techniques presented by The Red Guards elite horse units just yesterday. We
feel that you are indeed owed an explanation of why we had no choice but to
take up arms against Desolation Row.

1.) Desolation Row warriors were interfering with the movement of troops in a
war zone. The Khan had contacted Lord aqua on several occasions to ask that
this warrior take a different route so as not to delay our troops rushing to
the front. Lord aqua agreed to move this warrior several times, but each time
continued to block Red Guard Troops!

2.) Lord Aqua was contacted by me personally to establish friendly relations.
His response was to offer an incredibly one sided technology trade! When we
politely asked that he explain his reasons for this offer, he responded that
our answer was "ambiguous". It appeared to all that he was trying to dictate
terms to us! I can tell you that one member of the great council even buried
his axe in the table in frustration! We tried and tried to get straight
answers, but were constantly met with something that could not be described any
other way than "double-talk"

3.) Lord Aqua then proceeded to start insulting all emissaries that were sent
to clear this matter up!

4.) The final straw was when his warrior appeared on our boarder. Now
normally, the Horde welcomes benevolent visitors. We are, after all, a people
who enjoy great feasts and visitors from a foriegn land are a wonderful reason
to have one. However, this was the same warrior that had been harrasing Red
Guard troop movements and refused to keep his word! At this point, most of our
military was abroad and the Hordeland was scarcly defended. There was no
choice. We could not let this villan into our interior! The civilians were
panicking. The Khan even had to send orders to the front to recall some troops
for Hordeland Defense. Was this just the beginning of an invasion? Lord Aqua
had already shown he could not be trusted!

The defense of our people was paramount. We removed this threat to our
people.

However, we truly are a peace loving people. We have had contact with Lord
Aqua to discuss a resumption of peaceful relations. His responses are
unbelievable! He lies about the contacts we have had in the past even when
presented with transcripts! He has said that he would rather fight and die
than to accept our peace offerings! It is clear that his people are mad with
war lust! They have created and trained a most fearsome unit called the
immortal! No people are safe in our opinion!

While we understand that you do not wish to be involved in a war (who does?),
we believe that the peace of the world is at stake! Consider this...Should the
mighty Horde armies fall in combat, where is Lord Aqua to take his agression
next? I must say that with these terrible units that he has created the
glorious cities of the Lost Boys would be in serious danger!

Only together can we make a safer world. I ask you to reconsider your position
based on this new information. I ask that you act to ensure the safety of your
own people! The land that you will take will yield far more in shields and
production than you would spend in undertaking this most necessary task.

In any event, The Horde revels in our friendship and we once again await your
response.

Ambassador of the Horde

Yes, excellent work. The problem is it's in vain. The isolationist 1889 will reply in his autistic style once more. Clearly his nation is under aqua's control. Why else would he reject a life time opportunity like this one?

While I think you are probably right, this lays the groundwork for our eventual invasion of the Lost Boys. The pressure will be turned up to the point that we must assume he is in alliance with Aqua.

Finally a response. It looks as if Aqua is trying to name an intermediary:

quote:
Ambassador Plato,

Thank you for explaining the conflict. Of course you have every right to
defend your people and your lands and I do not mean to imply otherwise, but
I wonder if you would care to share your thoughts on what might lead to a
conclusion of hostilities between the warring nations.

I feel there is scant profit in war and belligerence is a highly contagious
disease.

Make trade not war,
Lord Nosferatu

One well established city (Invictus) or two settlers at the locations of our choosing, plus gpt tribute and promise to give the bonus tech immediately and unconditionally. If Aqua's offer falls short of that, the war will continue and we shall take by force what he denied us in negotiations.
