News to the Emperor-Overseas
Great Emperor, much rejoicing is in accord, for we have recently taken the great city of Tlacopan! This seeming ancient city has offered to us vaste treasuries of Gold and all the wealth of thier knowledge. Granted, we knew everything already, but their established places of learning will prove to be a stronghold for our own progress. Long live your Grace, the Emperor-Overseas!
Field Report of the Eastern Army Advancing to Silver Lake
The navel might of the Viking meanace shows no ability to fight the Chinese land armada! The limping longboat has been destroyed, while our engineers have layed seige to Silver Lake, wrasping it from the Pig's control. Two other Longboats were taken out in the process... one docked in Silver Lake, the other, recieving their food supplies from Silver Lake, starved in the middle of the Lake to the south. Knowing how barbaric these Stink Pots are, we can only imagine how grim their end was as they hacked each other to peices to feed themselves.
Naval Report to the Sub Admiral of the Southern Fleet
We have come across Alejehulo, a meso-American city that has been taken by our more civilized friends, the Romans. As we docked for some supplies, they told us of a city further south named Panama. Panama and Alejehulo both, they told us, have access to both great seas. We will head south and take Panama for the Glory of the Emperor-Overseas!

 DEATHBLOW!!!
Just hours before the final offensive was launched, a second sun rose over Rome. In
awe, astrologers declared this an omen foretelling victory, and a new golden age for
the Empire.
Finally, an opportunity to demonstrate the might of Caesar's invincible legions! In the Year of our Lord, 1047, Rome launched the greatest conquest in the history of mankind, under the great leadership of Centurion Narcissus Meridius.
Centurion Narcissus Meridius is honored by his troops before the long march to New Cardiff... and destiny.
After over years of stalemate in the forests and hills of Appalachia, the arrival of some 200,000 slaves in New Carmarthen marked the beginning of the end for the Nordic barbarians. A paved road was promptly built to the Viking front lines at New Cardiff, and our 25 legions assembled outside the city. The mere sight of 125,000 infantry and 5,000 cavalry rising over the horizon made the men of the town's petty garrison defecate in fear. In this impaired state they couldn't inflict a single casualty on the inundation of Roman troops, although a colonel's dog was accidentally run over by a supply cart on the way.
When the linchpin of New Cardiff was pulled, ALL of the Vikings' continental possessions fell, one by one, thanks to our quality roads. New Kells, New Tintagel, New Caernarfon, New Aarhus, New Hladir, Long Bend, Great Falls, Oshawa, Grand Huron, and Killdeer now fly the banners of Rome.
The only major loss of the war was unfortunately the worst we could possibly bear. After painting red the tundras around New Hladir with the blood of countless Vikings, Meridius took three horses and rode nonstop to Long Bend to direct a final offensive against Vikings along the Great Lakes. After his brilliant shock tactics took Oshawa, Grand Huron, and Great Falls, the men of the remaining Viking longships, with no safe harbors in sight, quickly starved or froze to death, ending the Viking naval threat once and for all.
Meridius then traveled back to Long Bend, after hearing scouts' reports that a high-quality road led north from the city. In his usual brazen manner he traveled up the mysterious road without any escort other than 10 horsemen and a few hundred infantry. When he came across the tiny enemy town of Algonquin he attacked with his paltry force, only to be completely encircled. After a full week, while his entourage had managed to kill seventeen times as many of the enemy as they had, the battle was lost.
Meridius and his escorts are caught in
a gully and slaughtered at the Battle
of Aldonquin.
When two legions arrived at the town a month later, the great Centurion's head was found on a pike, left to be torn apart by vultures. It became clear to our men that these Vikings were less than barbarians. They were mere animals, with no sense of honor. A quick charge was led against the monsters in Aldonquin, who quickly surrendered.
While previously we'd had the courtesy to merely put our captives to the sword, their desecration of our great general warranted a stronger demonstration. All of the defenders were tied to poles and beaten with branches and singed with hot pokers for a full week, until they died from shock, dehydration, or exposure. Their bodies were then dragged behind our chariots until their bones were exposed, and then left to be devoured by wolves. Then, and only then, was our great leader truly avenged, and he was given a proper burial. He now takes his rightful place in the afterlife among Cyrus, Darius, Alexander, Julis Caesar, the only men whose conquests could ever compare to his.
With the exception of the three island cities from whence Viking colonialism sprang, their threat has been completely expunged. Finally the New World can return to peace, under the guidance of the great empires of East and West. Long live Nova Roma!
