BirdNES 3: When Worlds Collide

[Birdjaguar]

From Krishna Deva Raya, King of Vijayanagar
To Berar

Remember our last visit, King of Berar? My son, Prince Tirumalai, has fallen in live with your beautiful daughter. He as told me of how he loves her, and confided in me to send you this message.

Oh! Beautiy are her eyes,
Flashing in the moonlight,
Lit like the brightest pearls of the ocean.

Oh! Grace are her steps,
Flowing over the carpets,
Such as a sparkling river,
Flowing to the sea.

Oh! Melodies are her words,
Sparking like the songs,
of the Happiest nightingale.

As you can see, passion is in the air. I propose a marriage, a celebration of the union of their love. My complements, of course.

-King Kishna Deva Raya, King of Vijayanagar

To Krishna Deva Raya, King of Vijayanagar
From Berar

We are honored by such a proposal and would look forward to the settling of arrangements.

To Rajputs

O most wretched infidel who squat in the desert hiding from the rightful judgement of God and His Messengers. Who defies the Lord of Delhi the ruler of all Hindustan. The time has come for you to repent your sins and seek forgiveness. Bow your heads to Mecca renounce your pagan ways and worship of foals, birds, and cows, end your idolatrous sinning, cast aide your wicked thoughts and realize that there is only one true God.

God has chosen to no longer overlook your sins. He has given you time to willingly come to the light yet you continue to defy His will.

If you persist in the error of your ways than your worthless lands shall be added to the Sultan of Delhi's. Choose wisely.

Signed and Sealed
Sikandar Lodhi, Sultan of Delhi, Lord of Hindustan

To Mahmud Begada, Sultan of Gujarat

It is with deep disappointment that I discovered your last letter directed at my uncle Alam Khan conspiring to commit treason with him as well as my brother Barabak Shah, seeking to supplant my rightful throne. I had always though of you as a fellow brother and ally, and yet you act with this treachery. This wounds my heart and fills me with a deep rage and sorrow. I shall never forget your action.

Nonetheless I am a forgiving man. I believe that the Holy Quaran commands us to be merciful and just. Be warned however, do not mistake my mercy for weakness. If I find future conspiracy against my throne by your design I shall shatter your armies, burn your cities, and sell your people into slavery to atone for their sins.

But let us set aside such unpleasantness. You have been waging war against the infidel Rajput and have asked our assistance. I cannot turn my back on a brother in need despite how he may have wronged me in the past.

Hence I shall dispatch an army commanded by my beloved uncle Alam Khan to aid your faltering armies and resume the march against the Rajput armies. May Allah grant us victory.

Signed,
Sikandar Lodhi, Sultan of Delhi, Lord of Hindustan

Karalysia, your account is "odd" no pms or visitor messages available. I don't have any old diplo for Delhi.

I was talking about responses to this diplo. Also my pm's have now been enabled so you can send it now.


Edit: Ewww...gross Carmen's orders are nauseating, peace and tolerance? What is this hippie nonsense. Heads will roll.

We humbly thank your highness for your generosity and forgiveness. We accept your aid in our war against Rajput.

 

[Ninja Dude]

Bird, may I please have my old orders send to me? I completely forgot about colonizing Luzon, and I want to know if there are any other pleasant surprises that might pop up

 

[Milarqui]

I have a question: what happened with my war? Nevermind, I have found it at the end of the update.

If you mean in Morocco, you were successful in expanding your holding there. Your original orders had you attacking Algiers, but I had a handwritten note changing that to Morocco (from April 2009) and accepted it as correct. No further embellishments were to be found.

 

[Kraznaya]

Birdjaguar I love the update, but I'm lazy and would rather not spend all my time sorting out that Central Asia. England please.

I'll make the change. Thanks for not leaving the Safavids in a mess!!

 

[Terrance888]

Hey BJ, can you tell me the orders/npc notes for Vijay's last turn?

 

[Birdjaguar]

I should probably just start a thread and post the old orders there.

 

[Karalysia]

If the Safavids are free now......I kind of want them. Maybe.

 

[Abaddon]

But that would be silly because everyone would see all our 'masterplans' lol. !!!

 

[Birdjaguar]

Make up your mind soon. All this changing of players gets to be quite time consuming. I am going to update the map and add a bunch of Central Asian nations as NPCs.

 

[Azale]

Well decide soon mang.

 

[Karalysia]

No too much effort. I'll stick with Delhi.

 

[Milarqui]

Who rules in Morocco? I thought it would be Algiers, but now that there is a different Algiers on the map, I'd like to know whom to talk with when it comes to make a peace agreement (of course, with things on my favour).

 

[T_F]

Woo, update!

Hope internal conflicts won't keep me from the colonisation game till it's too late.

 

[Abaddon]

I'm sure there is enough of that unknown world as well as Africa to keep everyone maintained for a few hundred years!!

Oruc rules in Algiers.

How about Orders due Tuesday Sept 14th?

Savoy isn't even on this list IIRC.
