Sons of Mars III - Trollish Echidnas Not Included

[christos200]

The Greeks weren't fighting for Europe or democracy... and your numbers are completely skewed. Gem Hound's account is much more accurate.

You imperialist barbarian scums.

[Tyo]

Sigh, christos.

[christos200]

We french never asked anything in return for the lifes that will be lost in this war. We only want to defend the heirs of alexander the great against those asian barbs.

~On the bridge of the new Imperial I Class Missile Cruiser Martinet~
Grand Moff Hilwuff Kartin- This vessel truly is a valuable addition to our fleet, Captain. I congratulate you on your recent promotion.
Captain Pilad Gellaeon- Thank you, sir. I look forward to many years of service to the 501st Legion.
Grand Moff Hilwuff Kartin (dryly)- Your enthusiasm is inspiring, Captain. But we cannot waste time confabulating; bring out the crew.
(Pilad Gellaeon summons the crew to the bridge; Hilwuff Kartin inspects them all carefully, before returning to Gellaeon wearing a satisfied smirk)
Grand Moff Hilwuff Kartin- Captain, these are some of the best disciplined men I’ve ever seen. I look forward to hearing of the conquests that the Martinet will undoubtedly bring to the 501st. Dismissed.

Right.

Who wants to trade with One Vision?

We are embargoing French/Christos goods.

[Mosher]

Why exactly is France's reason for aiding Greece in the first place?

None. Literally none as far as I know.

Which is why I'm placing an embargo on France. If enough people do it, it'll hurt them badly. Speaking of which, France is no longer welcomed in Southeast Asia or Oceania.

I'll just chime in that based on posting times, Greece did claim the Caucasus first; the map wasn't posted by Persia before Greece posted its own. So, using the rule of finders keepers, the Greeks got most of the land(Persia was compensated with land in the East).

I'll also add this is Imperium Offtopicum, not the World History or OT forum.

Also - I'm pretty sure Christo's OOC reason for backing Greece is his own personal Greek nationality, though I suppose IC, France is Eurofascist, based on how the Asians are seen as barbarians.

Ahem:

Tibet and Gangia, while both non-interventionist, have decided that the Greco-Persian War is of interest to the Subcontinent. As such, they have sent a small aid package of 12 billion gold to the Persians. This is just a taste.

Tibet and Gangia's thoughts on the war are simple - that Greece has the right to, and only to, retake the Caucasus. Pushing any further in will merit serious intervention, not out of desire but out of necessity.

Persia's territorial integrity being vital to the balance of regional power, everything east of Iraq and South of the Caucasus is deemed as off limits. If the forces of France and Greece turn this into a war of imperialism, rather than a war of self-defense, the consequences will be dire.

@ Tanicus
When is the update?

[SonicTH]

We still need orders from:

-Rome
-Denmark
-Partitionania

[Omega124]

More Iberia, more eco. And seriously, build my forts in Italy next time.

Think about that.

I'm not the one who claimed on top of the other person. It's not my fault Turkey's so friggin' small. Furthermore, you haven't even responded to my peace post thing.

Lose the battle, win the war.

If I go further than the pre-war borders, know that I plan on giving the lands back post-war. Neither Greece nor Byzantium have any interest in the lands to the south or east of the Caspian, unless the guys in the lands start slights us. Speaking of slights, if you guys think it's so freaking awesome that I'm defending myself, why are you giving money to Persia?

Because, they know that I am important to the local balance of power.

For the record, the Super Battleship Nassau is only there as an observer.

Just noticed this next post:

These two posts contradict each other.
Edit: Ooh my double post got ninjaed.

This also contradicts the first post.

Not even going to consider a counter offer? Sheesh, on top of not threatening me and not openly denouncing random countries, it seems like you don't actually know how diplomacy works!

SBAG is non-interventionist and wouldn't actually do anything if it om-noms Persia.

I'm sorry, but no it does not contradict anything .

I think by "on the side of the Greeks" He meant in the black sea.

Exactly...

...So Persia, quit jumping the gun and assuming everything is against you! .

I didn't denounce random countries, only yours and France.

My idea was that you would take Western Anatolia and I would take the Caucasus... but no, you had to blitzkrieg all the way across.

Okay. Thanks for the confirmation of what I was hoping.

Persia accepts the promise of future help and we hope that it is not needed.

Persia accepts the 12 billion gold from Tibet and Gangia.
