	Woe unto thee, oh Babylon! Support Apolyton, buy GURPS/ Alpha Centauri

From offers of peace and happiness, we hear only silence. You asked
for explanations and we answered. We ask for explanations, we hear
only silence.

The silence of a cold night...the cold silence of the darkest of nights.

We stood as brothers, shoulder to shoulder, and now the shoulder of
our brother has grown cold and turned away from us.

The arrogance of Babylon and her Lords! The paltry arrogance of those
who have no muscle to back their words!

While the Horde waits and listens, we hear the formings of new
alliance...one we would consider joining. But this would not suit the
Babylonian ideal, for Babylon would be thrown from this alliance.
Booted to the curb like yesterday's garbage. Yea, we know your toils
to form this alliance...for the Horde has ears that hear, yet always
silence...silence...from you to us.

We have heard the insults. We have heard the cry of Babylon to her neighbors.

Woe unto thee oh Babylon! You have cast your lot with the betrayer!
Prepare thyselves...build thy boats! For tremble with every
breath...The Horde is coming!

The Grim Reaper is preparing to walk among your nation. Your doom is upon you.

The Blood Oath Horde

I think its well established by now that you don't need to pretend to have a valid reason to declare war on someone.

Oh, Paddy you know that I tried at least twice today to contact you via MSN. Silence works both ways, and speaks louder than PLATO's fluff.

What are your charges against us? Did you catch Babylon building those dreaded machines of war - the grainery?!?!?

I'll get the red carpet ready for you.

Hahahaha....yes, that temple where all the silent Babylonian worshippers go...and hide the techs they had already been paid for! hahahahaha

and maybe the temple is also where you plot with other nations against those you called brother! hahahahaha

Babylon belongs with the Bards... hahahahaha


we'll see who gets the last laugh!

We paid with blood, more than you were willing to pay with. Your pathetic leader almost wept at our losses and offered to pay us as recent as yesterday after publically stating that you wouldn't go to war over this tech, "Have you come to an answer on how the Horde can help with compensation for your lost units? This is a matter that troubles me and I feel these losses persoanlly. Afterall I feel you would not have sent them without my pushing the matter so hard..."

Maybe you feared that you'd have to back out of yet another deal.

It is obvious to all that you set up two allies as patsies in this DR war. Co-ordinated the order of attack so that you could back out last and stab us in the back. You were just too stupid, or impatient to wait to collect on your precious tech.

We are at the mercy of the rest of the world here. They will respond as they see fit. We have no moral high ground to run to. But, they know they have no friend in you.

Well, you know how to keep a game interesting.

BOH - Babylon gives you one last chance at peace. Lay down your arms or else! or else we'll get really angry!

I offered you fair terms ************. Come out and fight then, or you too busy hiding behind that temple of yours.

I will have great delight burning your city.

and it be your nation that has again wimped out on honouring the tech deal... as you know only too well

Babylon the truth be known you be ***************.

we were willing to hold on the tech... even your silence

but forming an alliance against us, that was pushing it to far

so come on MIGHTY AND JUST babylon, come to war

or maybe you need to get your boats buildt so you can run and hide...

I so so want to see you angry, you pack of *****...

Name your unit skro, and have courage to meet me on the field... I dare thee

you be good at calling names, and personal attack - bring it on babylon boy

Perhaps you should, my friend ... as the BoH is just showing that they care not about attacking those formerly called their friends, one by one. I don't doubt that you'll be soon on their list too ...

As for the 'betrayal' of the babylonians, I find it amusing that BoH is objecting to Babylon not honoring the alliance that BoH ripped up by attacking us. Well, amusing isn't the right word exactly ... but interesting. Other nations must honour their alliances (as we do), but Blood OATH Horde doesn't have to?

Obviously the correct name for BoH is Betrayers of Oaths Horde ...

So good we are not "friends". This should have placed us behind in their list.

My comments on players' pathetic-ness or stupidity were not directed at anyone personally. Just intended to raise the in-game ire of the Horde. Seems to have worked a bit too well.

Let's make this clear. This is just a game. I'm loving this. But in-game, you have really upset me something fierce by golly!

So, peace, and have a beer on me. For those of you underage, check with your parents first, but have a big frosty Coke on me.

On a lonely outpost...in the northern reaches of the Babylonian empire. A highway directional marker, made from stone, is being positioned at the side of a twisty, dirt road.

Shogun Gunner directs a contingent of Babylonian workers as they carve and hoist a new highway sign with the following words:
