This is why you shouldn't trust James.

Kudos to you James. We've been your friendly neighbors the whole time. I don't know what was in your mind but to be power hungry because you're big.

I am sorry Pistachio that you have plotted against us since the start of Strat, with several other players who now have left the region, and that you cannot understand why that puts you in no position to make demands of my faction. You intended to attack us and I am uncomfortable with your behaviour. Desire came to me seeking to join a larger group as she is an individual in Strategus. You guys attacked her after I had agreed to give her protection. I offered you a way to avoid war with my faction after explaining that desire was joining us. You did not choose that route. I was unfortunately unaware of your claim to Nova Reyvadin and perhaps I missed a diplomatic post. I cannot help that you didn't move as fast as Desire to capture it but that doesn't mean that I will help you take it from her.

Hey, Sandy...

A lil role playing never hurt anyone. Don't stamp out the fire in it's last bursts. Who knows, it could catch flame to the carpet and blaze harder than ever before. :)

There will be some battles with a decent amount of experience (not plate, but getting closer).

And also... we've all been playing this game for years, and like you said we're all still twelve.

1. We haven't planned anything
2. Desire wasn't even in your faction yet. You told us she was joining your faction but you weren't taking the fief.
3. You told us we could cancel the battle to remain neutral after we attacked. Never before. You also never talked to me about protection of desire. Everything you said about acre and desire was not told to me.

We've been your friends since the beginning. You're going to war over one person taking our claimed fief. You know you planned this. You're just power hungry because you're so big. I get it.

Having heard out the messenger, who spoke considerately softly, the Axeman raised himself from his bed cautiously, and was relieved when the effort was not rewarded by a stab of pain.

The illness had struck him suddenly as he had been girding himself for the tournament. In a matter of moments he had gone from feeling slight discomfort to a migraine he could only liken to being bludgeoned repeatedly by a great maul.  Neither physic, nor the ministrations of his body-slaves skilled in the arts of the healing touch could give him more than the slightest relief, so he sent a messenger to excuse his absence and ask forgiveness of his liege for allowing this weakness to overcome him.

Yet it was not the tournament that preyed most upon his mind, but the news from the south.  Although he had taken to his bed before the battle, and as it occurred, rested uneasily with a heated stone below his neck, no illness could excuse him from the responsibility he had taken by choosing to offer assistance to Acre's newest member.  He could not find it in his heart to blame the Marauders for their decision to go to war - their honour demanded no less.  Yet his own honour would not have allowed him to renege on his pledge of support to a loyal friend of the clan.

It was emphatically not greed for land that had driven this decision - both he and the clan had expected that Desire would hold the fief as an independent.  Yet when she implored protection and offered to swear allegiance, none of the lords of Acre felt they ought to spurn her request.

With a heavy heart, and still uneasy stomach, the Axeman awaited a war they had not sought, but would fight nonetheless.

1. We haven't planned anything=False

2. Desire wasn't even in your faction yet. You told us she was joining your faction but you weren't taking the fief.=She is unable to join until she is in reach of a faction member. She was sworn in.

3. You told us we could cancel the battle to remain neutral after we attacked. Never before. You also never talked to me about protection of desire. Everything you said about acre and desire was not told to me.= This was a sincere opportunity for you to avoid war with my faction. I would have assumed my intent was pretty obvious as I was threatening war on you for attacking someone who had recently come under our protection.

I don't at all dislike roleplaying. Really, I have nothing against it. I enjoy writing at times, poetry or prose. It's fun. I don't share it with people, and I can't bring myself to sack up and post roleplay shit really because...I don't know, my sack ain't big enough?

I was just posting funny stereotypes or something. I know for a fact there aren't that many young folks in GoW anymore. Still, it's what you're "known for", at least in my book, so I posted that shit.

C'mon m8, if I post seriously it's a wall of text. If it's a few lines, I'm just shit-posting fun-posting

James the reason I believe you wanted to go to war with is because you've planned it and wanted our fiefs.  desire offered to join us first. She said she would join if she could keep reyvadin. I really don't believe you're going to war because of desires fief. She asked to join us first and knew we would attack back and take reyvadin. You being the next choice and using it as an excuse to go to war is something I don't believe

I can't help what you believe, Pistachio, but that's simply not true.  I can only assume that you answered in the negative when she asked if she could keep Reyvadin, and so she sought help elsewhere.

To be honest I didn't "ask" to join you I offered to join you under the condition that I get to keep Reyvadin and I would let you control a certain amount of the production points in Reyvadin, once I spec'd it the way I needed to spec it of course. I mean I did spent my time and effort taking it. :rolleyes: I knew you would attack it and 1 vs 27 is kind of overwhelming but you seemed to be fine with those odds. So I hoped you would be okay with slightly closer odds.

After you declined my offer (a very generous offer, I think. After I killed every ticket in the city practically for you all I asked in turn was that I get to manage the fief and spec it in a way you said was fine), I decided that the next best option would be to ask Acre for assistance.

We should all take a step back and realize this will produce a lot of good battles for both sides and adds spice to the very dully flavored strat 5. Best of Luck to both sides! May Reyvadin be a blood bath!

By the way, I approve of your new colors!

posting this is failed diplomacy. I guess this is a tip for everyone not to say anything to pistachio in private and attacking right after is lame. At least go after Arce if you are gonna call them out.

Later after the battle :

N_James: So you have declared against us
N_James: very unfortunate
N_James: We will not attack you later than 330 am
N_James: and not before 3pm
N_James: as a courtesy
N_James: est*
N_James: well
N_James: maybe a bit later than 330


Yo, what happened to attacking us at good times?
4 AM EST?

That occurred due to your night time settings. As a courtesy however we will not fight the battle as it is outside of the time range. Also perhaps I am wrong but I believe your man was headed to attack ours outside of those hours aswell ;)

DO NOT SET YOUR NIGHT-TIME FROM THE STRATEGUS PAGE. SET IT ON THE MAIN C-RPG.NET PAGE, UNDER THE SETTINGS-->STRATEGUS PAGE, ASSUMING YOUR WEBSITE IS SET TO YOUR CORRECT TIMEZONE. THE STRATEGUS PAGE IS BASED UPON GREENWICH MEAN TIME, YOU CLUELESS AMERIFATS

There is another solution as well. Do not set your night time setting at all. just leave it alone. its far more common for night time settings to fuck up battles than it is for it to help.

Agreed, I'd prefer for there to be no night-time, or at the most a 4-hour night-time. Still, most nerds are going to want to set their shit so might as well let them know how to do it without being jackasses.

The door was at the other end of the room, I got up and walked towards the door. My parents died when I was 12 and left me with the whole kingdom. I fought off an army of bears as a child and rule the throne. I rule my kingdom standing next to my right hand man Waxman of Gaycre.
