War with the Whore

[Lethwin Far Seeker]

I've at least known there were plans to get it since December 2014. Its basically been the main goal of the Starks. It would've been nice if you guys had let us know there was some secret pact between you guys and the Merchants of Curaw. I did tell the Queen to post a RP thread in this forum about the siege but it didn't happen.
Yeah we are the aggressor party when you guys attacked me first. Makes sense.

I've at least known there were plans to establish Blue in Curaw with defense\trade pact since James pulled another James.

I did tell the Viceroy to post an RP threat in this forum about the pact but it didn't happen.

Yeah we are the aggressor party when you guys attacked our allies first.  Makes sense.

(Accident or not, effect is the same.  The Charge of the Light Brigade was an accident too yet the Russians didn't lower their guns and politely wave)

Its the seat of the North. Virgin went to go and claim the land of her birth after the fall of the Kingdom of the North. And I wouldn't call them "peaceful". Blue threatened Camulos to try to intimidate him into giving all his fiefs.

I want all to know I was not told first hand of this. I was warned by two other Lords by this; I did confront Blue and he did tell me he only wanted to purchase my fiefs; but I don't know how true that is any more, since reading that he had a pact with the wardens and now the wardens are attacking the Starks. who is on who's side here; People who I thought where on side switch sides.

we can stop all these wars if only we had jobs

I have a job 

So does Thalion and Tristan I hear.  We could stop all these wars if weren't all weird individuals intent on creating a simulation of medieval politics, warfare, and combat. We could stop all these wars but then we wouldn't be the almighty diviners of time zealously wielding dots and lines to achieve what is best in life.

I am pretty sure most of us have jobs, albeit most likely only part-time ones since we're for the most part students, I reckon. That said, being a student, having a part-time job, and actively looking for full-time employment come summer (like I am) probably amounts to more time than a regular 9-5 job would. So no, I don't think getting jobs is the problem here. It's being severe nerds, and that cannot be cured. Besides, better to have wars 24/7 than to have none at all. You want strat to die?

[Lord Camulos]

you must of not known  what I was referring to when the state department said if only Isis had jobs they would not fight.

I knew what you were talking about! Nice to know someone else watches the news

I knew what you were talking about! Nice to know someone else watches the news

But when I mentioned the Isis that collected her husband's body parts and brought him back to life, you had no idea.  But still, I may have left my diamonds and riches in Curaw, but I finally found the one true treasure that gives meaning to my virtual life.

But this looks like a border skirmish that escalated into a war due to lack of communications.  NOT VERY MEDIEVAL AT ALL, GENTS!!!  Oh, wait...  totally medieval.

But, I feel I must leave my peaceful trading faction and support the underdogs (sorry Blue).  I was never comfortable being the overdog- was never my style.

BUT ALL I ASK IS PLEASE PEOPLE, SUPPORT THIS WAR!!!  We understand that most of you are allied to the Warden Empire*.  But, if you use a pseudonym to keep battles decent, we'll be quiet.  Plus you have the added bonus of hanging with some of the coolest Strat players in history.

The old woman moved the cards.  "I am now seeing the IRL vision:  The IRL world is where all your souls reside.  You may believe you are true heroes with purposes and dreams, but truly your soul is just a bored gamer killing time.  But in this world there is a fine mythological history.  It a confused mess, but at one time there was a Roman republic.  They fought one powerful kingdom for many years.  Eventually, they won.  But they had a fear.  And after that they conquered one kingdom after another- anyone they thought might be a threat.  Some made deals, but they eventually were absorbed.  The thing is, they started by trying to defend themselves, but ended up with an empire.  And mad emporers!" she cackled.

"So what does that tell me?"

"Scrue off, you only paid me one silver coin."

*to keep things even, and keep the precious, precious Xp going, come to our roster and use a pseudonym.  We'll keep quiet as long as we have awesome battles.

We had some great, fun fights tonight, guys! Looking forwards to more in the future. Pretty even rosters and such, was a good time.


That said... now you know how we Hounds defend! Currahee!

This is basically how I imagine the Warden of the North war council went down on deciding whether or not to attack me:

Well that made me laugh more than it should have...

Oh fuck off you cunt

[Lethwin Far Seeker]

This is basically how I imagine the Warden of the North war council went down on deciding whether or not to attack me:

Yeah its called a preemptive strike.  Its what you do when events leading up to the present (attacks on Squids and Curaw) give you cause to believe that something will happen (another attack) and you act to prevent predicted event (you using that army to attack something else).  I'm sorry your army got wiped in this time of abysmal population and I am even more sorry that you weren't present for your battle.  Much is risked in war.

Bryggan, I've already specified how and why we are not an empire.  As a former emperor or "High King" you mock your self by falsely accusing us of being such.  For other's sake I will again clarify that we are a confederation or union of factions, namely Mithrim, HoC, and Taser (Mind Calamari?).  Unlike your former empire we do not have a centralized government.  Compare to the European Union.

Okay, really guys... raiding? Raids are what you do to kill off strat. There is literally no purpose behind raiding (unless you are an EU-level play-to-win tryhard, and just look how fun their strat is... some of their active players came to NA), and it simply isn't advisable in this stage of strat. You take the gear out of the village, the village gets attacked the next night, the village is taken since defense has no gear... and... what is gained? Another pixel fief for you guys? Are we really having a war here to get as many pixel points as possible, or are we fighting to have some fun battles? We minds well leverage the free population that fiefs provide us to get some fights going since producing tickets is hard for both sides here.
