An interesting question has been posed by the High Priest.

Although the CTP game itself mentions the Incan people (see the Diplomacy window for an example), they are hardly an authority, so I consulted Webster's. They say that although the people themselves are the Inca, that when used as in a reference to, say, war-mongering Marines from Inca, the proper usage would be "war-mongering Incan Marines".

I would take issue with the Assyrian translation as according to the English edition of Chambers the correct phraseology would be 'War mongering Inca Marines from .....', 'An Inca Brigade of ......', etc etc.

There is no such word as 'Incan' in the 'English' language but maybe it is different in 'American' English?

Great Pharoah,

Rome is aware that Egypt may have played her turn before reading the very late Roman communique - we therefore forgives the Battleship attack on one of our Tanks. We do understand the meaning of 'Fog of War'...

Concerning news is that Londinium seems to have spontaneously rioted - Rome hopes that we will not again be subjected to this mysterious plague again...

BTW - almost forgot, I am on holiday from tomorrow until Sunday (I can play again on Sunday!)

If possible due to the sensitivity of the World climate, I would prefer a hiatus until Sunday...

However I guess I could entrust the game to the caretakership of someone like Shavlor for these few days if you guys really want - let me know at work Gwilym.Owen@msdw.com tomorrow so I can send any instructions if needed...

I believe that any people may call and spell their name as they choose, so Inca it shall be!

However, as to the idea of a British or American spelling of the name when it is used as an adjective, I'll just point out that Inca was an American civilization!

The Assyrian buffer zone has been expanded, as the Inca cities of Chiripa and Pikillacta have both been welcomed into our nation.

The sinking of 2 Inca Destroyers this day will allow safer maritime travel in the region.

Speaking of the maritime, we must ask that our friend Demosthenes order his ship to refrain from continuing on it's present course, as it has entered a war zone, and we cannot guarantee it's safety under such conditions.

Unfortunately, word reached my naval officers too late for them to change their present trajectory. this shall be rectified as soon as possible. Many thanks for the warning, my merchant sailors have heard terrible rumours of what the Incan sailors get up to.

It was ordered today that all Inca lands and Cities were to be ceded to the Roman Empire. Some have suggested that this was due to an unnatural affection for horse-flesh on the part of the High Priest but this is untrue. A Llama offers a far more comfortable ride, in all senses of the word!

Emperor Caligula of the Romans has accepted High Priest Jon's invitation to bring Inca's cities under the protective wing of the Roman Empire after their unfortunate decline into barbarism caused by the current power vacuum...

Rome has no quarrel with the Assyrians over this matter and is merely carrying out the wishes of her former Ally - if Assyrian forces reach an Inca city before Roman forces, we will not press the issue...

The Assyrian army has liberated the barbarian cities of Cuzco and Machu Picchu. It seems that the last cruel act of the Inca was to attempt to starve their own people to death! We found that all forms of food production had been deliberately shut down. Our first act, after removing military resistance was to feed the people, and they are again happy.

We intend to continue saving formerly Inca cities with all haste.

We see that our friend Demosthenes has sent warships to the region, and while we appreciate his concern, we wish to tell you that we have the situation well in hand. We request that you keep the ships away from the coast, for we have our own ships in the immediate area taking military action against the barbarians, and it would be tragic if they were to get caught in the crossfire.

To Mobius, we wish to say that we are appreciative of his understanding of the need for Assyria to continue to save the former Inca people from the barbarians.

As we now share another border, we will strive to keep our relations friendly!

The Welsh hear the demise of the Incan people, and fell sympathy for their pain and suffering.

If only their leader had not cashed his chips so soon, and in more ways than one.

I am hopeful that King Rick can liberate the tortured Incan souls soon enough, and any assistance needed in this task shall be yours.

The last two Inca-Barbarian cities have now been liberated, and the starving citizenry within are being cared for.

It was pitiful how they had been mistreated, but Assyrian Red Cross have set up facilities to feed the people, and they are already quite happy.

Thank you to Demosthenes for his offer of help during these trying times. Luckily, the famine was not for want of food production, so no international effort will be needed to avert the crisis.

This is the time for Assyria to turn our attention to wheat and not munitions! The people must be fed!

It seems that congratulations is deserved all round. At last the Incan people have been liberated from tyranny, and now the Roman people can freely indulge in their orgies without fear of disease and unwanted pregnancy.
