@Magzi. Your damage was not as bad as I first thought.

Battle Report
Naumberg
13/15 Berserk Army vs 5/5 Sword, dead sword army 13/15
5/5 Berserk vs 3/3 sword, dead sword 5/5 berserk
3/3 berserk vs 3/3 sword, dead berserk, 1/3 sword :mad:
13/15 Army vs 3/3 sword, dead sword, 13/15 army
Outside of Nuremburg:
4/4 berserk vs 3/3 horseman, dead horseman and captured slave 3/4 berserk.

I do hope you enjoy what is outside of Naumberg. If you really want to, you could try and take out that army or take back a city of yours, but you do know that it will be pointless considering the troops I have outside of both Naumberg and Nuremburg. I did warn you that it was pointless this "couterattack" of yours.

Received another peace offering but realised this was another bug just looking at the ugly berserks spoiling my view :)

Your nation is very weak. As a result of that weakness the Mighty Danish Empire has decided to find a more suitable partner. Your nation is not worthy of being considered being with the Danish. We saw you as a lead weight in this partnership. Have a look at the battle report.

On to the Danes
 
We are now at war with another nation. In accordance to secret negotiations with France, we are now at war with the English. And soon they will be at war with nother nation too. Soon al th human players will be fighting agains each other, with at least one alliance. We have made an offer to the French to make this alliance complete. Have a look at that French stack outside of on of you German cities. Wow, that is impressive.

Battle Report:
Germany:
We have taken back Naumberg. We killed the whole garrison. We did not lose a single unit. We did have a few injuries as a result. All units around Naumberg are killed. As a result of the fighting, I have two berserks that are now elite. We see you stack of units outside of Naumberg, but that will not do much damage. There are six units that are sent on a suicide mission. The Danish gods are clearly favouring us of your Christian God. I believe you must convert to our religion, and then you will know true happiness. ;)
Nuremburg is down to a horsie. We kille three spearmen. We have two 2/4 Berserks and one 4/4. That city will be ours again.

England
We have destroyed the city of Thetford. I think that is the name. We killed three spears that were in that city. We have one berserk on your mainland, by he wil die as he is redlined. We killed two curraghs for the loss of a longship, and we killed a galley. It looks like that you have no more galleys. :D Soon you will be crippled by the might of the Danish fleet. I think you should say good bye to your "invading" warrior. He is just practice for us.

Here is an intriguing look at the Foreign advisors screen. Soon there will be more action on this front. It is amazing that the AI players have stayed out of our affairs so far. Perhaps we need to get into their affairs.

We need Our powders ... Betrayed !! ... Betrayed by the honourless Danes !!! ...

Our navy sank ... The beautiful city of Thretford has been razed and the entire population of old men, womenfolk and helpless babes put to the sword ... We hope to God that all died swiftly ... however We doubt that these barbarians know the meaning of mercy ...

These hairy, ill smelling Dwarf Trolls ... who begged Us to join in their German war ... the plotting and scheming Danes ... We wonder whom controls the head of this Foul Alliance of Evil ... and whom assigned to be the Rear Kisser ?!? ... The Foolish Franks had better watch their backs ...

We declare on this day that the Danes shall live in infamy and We shall not cease until the very last of them have been ground under Our fashionable heels ... We also declare support for the Honourable Germans ...

Seems the citizens of Hamburg are revolting against their oppressive overmeisters ... stay strong Hamburgers ! ... the thoughts of England are with you all ...

English War Court

We have spent many hours pouring over aged documents and have found a treaty signed by both Our diplomats and the Danes ... you will notice the shakey X in the corner, that dear citizens is the mark of these barbarians ... as you can see an agreement betwixt the glorious Brits and these rude monkeys has been broken ... 7 cycles remained before a Right of Passage agreement needed to be re-negotiated ... an agreement that the Danes were desparate to impliment ... This is proof positive that the Danes under Classsical_Hero are oath breakers ... and more fools are the French to be so easily led ... away from the will of God !!!

Also the Danes knew full well that certain research paths lead to deadend technologies ... they said nothing to Us and sat back watching the wasting of time and resources ... this speaks volumes of how these savages treat their so called friends ...

The French should be warned !!! ... We would suggest that the world would be much more peacefull and honourable without their stench polluting the air ... and then with them well rid of We could all concentrate on God's task to recapture the Holy Lands ... all of you who would be in God's flock should take note that all will be judged at the End ... and We thinks the Danes and possibly the French, if they alter not their path will be facing a tormented and searing afterlife ...

I have changed to Byz Knowledge ... I think that this game is not designed very well ... the technology takes too long and there are no rewards if you do research , I spent 40 turns researching Norse Tech to get better ship and then don't get anything ... I thought that at the very least I would have gotten Galley ... started with 2 and can't build any more ... Anyway I will expect your tech this turn.
Do you want one of my cities on English soil ? ... I will be rebuilding the razed city soon ... has wheat etc ... upto you ... or --- sell all your city modifications and gift the cash to me??
