You can wonder about Babylons motives. I have stated before that peace was brought to AM through this alliance. Babylon values peace for its neighbors, and this world. Our friends, BOH and Eu requested our assistance. We entered the war to help our friends. That is all there is to it.

If there can be no seperate peace, as has been stated, I am unsure where Euphorica's position leaves us. Is McMeadows word the offical word of Euphorica?

Skrobism, responding to the call for aide of a distant friend who finds himself threatened is the most noble motive, but McMeadows has just stated that Euphorica has purposely instigated this war of aggression. They face no threat but the neighbor they invaded, they face no danger that will not cease as soon as they agree to seek peace. To continue this war now is to make Babylon a full partner in this impure act. Is this the course Babylon wishes to persue in its goals of honor and love?

We have been lied to and misled and as a result our honest efforts at peace here have been impeded. You have joined the Three Nations Alliance as a powerful protest against Desolation Rows disregard of previous agreements. Let us use the languge of statecraft and diplomacy, backed by the force of conviction and respect, to restore credebility to international agreements. If you send troops to attack Desolation Row now, you will speak only in the Thieves Cant of extortion.

I may not have been playing or I may not have been aware of the situation, but now I am dedicated to resolving those issues. I do not think Desolation Rows infractions were minor, nor do I think the only solution is to eradicate them.

Let us expend just a little effort to find the solution that resolves this dispute. Then the next violator will face the united force of five nations with nobody to blame but themselves.

Interesting indeed... So you feel that we should all live in peace and then what??? await the arrival of some creatures off the night to carry of our young

or for the Desolators to then step out with a massive force and remove a nation...

what makes you so sure that 5 nations could then get their collectives together to deal with an aggressor

also what makes you so sure you can get peace to be a subject for consideration of all players at this time?

are you ready to step up and place more into this discussion than words?

are your Lords of the Night out prowling the lands?

or do you just sit in your castles utilizing your quill as the moon wanders the sky

well pleasant dreams to you of the time when all the lands are full of plump cities, when the leaders are happy and ready for the picking

Should we not even try? You enjoy peace with Euphorica. Clearly a nation can still thrive without sowing the seed of war in every garden.

How has Desolation Row become the embodiment of evil? They pose no greater threat than any other. They fight to defend themselves. They are also the only nation that I know to have expended the effort to research Republic, hardly a sign of aggresive intent.

quote:

I do not, but I have faith in the intelligence and integrity of other nations to recognise that a transgression against a mutual code of conduct must be resisted.

quote:

Representatives of every nation, except Euphorica, have already made their contributions.

quote:

Do you think that victory will require just one more army or one more battle? So many units have already been lost to gain what? Something Desolation Row may be willing to concede already.

quote:

or do you just sit in your castles utilizing your quill as the moon wanders the sky


You must bring the right tool for the job. Some issues can be resolved by force of arms, but no army can impose their will on our six powerful nation. Only open agreement can extricate us from this quickly growing conflict and prevent the wasteland of pillaging soldiers and lost resources.

well pleasant dreams to you of the time when all the lands are full of plump cities, when the leaders are happy...


I look forward to seeing you there.

You must be enjoying producing all those words 1889, because it doesn't serve any other purpose.

There's been no lying and misledding, you just didn't want to see the situation. You use all that bla bla, and get bla bla in return, which both sides hardly understand.

This crusade against Desolation Row has been presented numerous times as a reaction to that nations disregard of its promises. Clearly "Dave" was just an excuse to launch a premeditated attack, not the reason for it. That is lying and misleading.

You are well aware of the effect words can have. That is why you have seen fit to posted numerous times here and in the so called War Discussion Thread.

You can continue to rely on your armies if you wish, but to date, that is the arena where your effort produces naught.

I wonder if Euphirca's stance (if it is Euphorica's and not just McMeadow's) is down to the very shakey foundation upon which they built their case for war?

How many Euphorican units did DR attack or threaten to attack before THEY sent their first invasion party and declared war on us? ZERO

How many of their cities did we attack? ZERO

How many of our units entered their territory? ONE

How many times did DR sit ontop of an Euphorican Iron deposit, preventing it being roaded? ZERO

Has Euphorica done the reverse to our Iron? YES

A lonely warrior, who bordered an empty Euphorican city and did NOT attack, that should show you how NON-aggressive we in the DR are.. Looks to me very much like Euphorica has been painting us the aggressors, when the opposite is in fact true. I'd go as far as to say that invading us was always their objective, and from an early age. That's why that place so much importance on the movements of a SINGLE WARRIOR in NEUTRAL terriotory - they require a reason.

No not me, and the Dark Lords of the Night would need to have their special talents really up to speed, as I am currently camping out with many 10's of thousands of my troops, in your lands of all places

So while my Faithfuls are ever vigilant, Army Group East is also running quite a security sweep over the lands we are moving through

@ Moonbars to answer his bla bla...

I know you built those immortals just because you were threatened by us, but still, ... we'd figured, with our small capacities in thinking, that with the aggressive and arrogant communications (both lingual as "body"language/moveing around) coming our way we would be the first ones to be visited by those elite troops. Rather than make a mess in our garden, we decided to take it to your backyard. That's where we have been playing since. And yes, we did invite some more friends...

Off course you can, and I see you will. In fact it's your own interpretation of my message. There's been no denial by Euphorica in having started the war. Our reasoning to come to that act has been elaborated above.

And as the current Euphoriscian Lead Singer I'd like to end with a song dedicated to our surviving men...

We'll be singing
When we're winning
We'll be singing
I get knocked down, but I get up again
You're never going to keep me down
Pissing the night away
Pissing the night away
He drinks a whisky drink
He drinks a vodka drink
He drinks a lager drink
He drinks a cider drink
He sings the songs that remind him of the good times
He sings the songs that remind him of the better times:
"Oh Danny Boy
Danny Boy
Danny Boy..."
I get knocked down, but I get up again
You're never going to keep me down

Pissing the night away
He drinks a whisky drink
He drinks a vodka drink
He drinks a lager drink
He drinks a cider drink

He sings the songs that remind him of the better times:
"Don't cry for me
Next door neighbour..."
