France ... Dear Sir,
My question to you is if u wish to make a REAL alliance with the French. I'm not talking about a mere MPP or some other temporarly agreement, I'm talking about a much wider range alliance.
Before we can talk about anything else I would like to know if that is the kind of alliance you are talking about (aiming at either of us winning) or just a temporarly join of forces.
I'd appreciate if you'd give it some time to think about it (it is not to be made ligthly) and give me a sincere answer to this royal marriage proposal.

Good questions!!
As I too am a queen I really like a Girl Power Alliance.
Yes a REAL alliance with either of us winning ...
This includes doubling our tech research, trading knowledge cheaply, sharing plans and maps, sharing intelegence of the other teams ... and dividing the new world which will hamper the expansion of the others.
Regarding my earlier message ... you will know that I have Colonisation which I will happily trade with you ... I am also prepared to trade tobacco with you. But I do need that souse that your colonist will threaten if he settles there ... I am currently researching Mining ... what about you?
I await eagerly your replyCOLOR]

France ... Le Girlie Power I like... yes... Girlie Power
Alliance...
If we are now true allies and this means a REAL trade tech sharing you'd give me colonisation without asking anything in return... am I wrong? This can be the first proof of trust. I am researching colonization so if you'd give me that I could go for Piracy.
One other thing we could do would be to divide the North world so that at least we both don't stress in competing for settling. The Dutch might be in the way but there could be a first obstacle for our Girlie Power Alliance to overcome...
I am sending my tactical map for free as a proof of my good intentions.
I must say I do not have any settler in your territory so I don't plan to settle inside your radius. I do plan to settle near Norfolk but that is not inside
your radius.

Me ... Dear sweet French Suitor
Firstly I made a mistake ... thought you were Joan ... ooops
This is why I suggested girly power ... but I was actually thinking that I would mention that I was actually a male who enjoyed the feel of silk, satin, frills and pearls carressing the skin LOL
So I guess back to the Royal Marriage ... unless you would like to share your own cross dressing secrets ;-)
Now that I've cleared that up ...
OK ... REAL Alliance means many things to many people.
If we are to gift techs it should be even as well ... with both partners researching at the same level ... I gift you Colonisation ... and will wait for Piracy ... I will also send you Mining some time after I complete it in 4 turns ... don't want our rivals to get suspicious too soon ... This way we will enter the next age together !!!
In return, I'd like to discuss our Wine trade ... can I have it for free ... so could you send me 3 gold per turn ... this way it will not interrupt the current trade. I will send you Tobacco later when I have it connected if you still need it as you have a source North in the radius of Louisburg.
I also think that in the spirit of our secret marriage ... Any extra luxury or strategic resource should be automatically gifted to the other party ... we are engaged after all LOL
We should swap World Maps too at some stage ...
Regarding our rivals ... I think that we should cease all future technology trade ... and discuss if an opportunity does arise ... I would agree to a veto clause which states that we can trade with any rival ONLY if we both agree.
Settling near Norfolk is cool ... I plan to expand up the far north ... but also to go west from Norfolk to hem the Dutch into a small territory. Your expansion into Aztec lands is good as it will stop the Spanish.
Also to show trust ... you may look in my spoiler ... I trust in your sportsmanship

France ... Dear Sir,
My question to you is if u wish to make a REAL alliance with the French. I'm not talking about a mere MPP or some other temporarly agreement, I'm talking about a much wider range alliance.
Before we can talk about anything else I would like to know if that is the kind of alliance you are talking about (aiming at either of us winning) or just a temporarly join of forces.
I'd appreciate if you'd give it some time to think about it (it is not to be made ligthly) and give me a sincere answer to this royal marriage proposal.

Me ... Greeting exulted French Queen
Good questions!!
As I too am a queen I really like a Girl Power Alliance.
Yes a REAL alliance with either of us winning ...
This includes doubling our tech research, trading knowledge cheaply, sharing plans and maps, sharing intelegence of the other teams ... and dividing the new world which will hamper the expansion of the others.
Regarding my earlier message ... you will know that I have Colonisation which I will happily trade with you ... I am also prepared to trade tobacco with you. But I do need that souse that your colonist will threaten if he settles there ... I am currently researching Mining ... what about you?
I await eagerly your replyCOLOR]
>
France ... I don't have the info right now, but be assured that I don't plan to settle anywhere within your city radius. To do that (I think) I would have to declare war to you... which I don't want.
>
France ... Le Girlie Power I like... yes... Girlie Power
Alliance...
If we are now true allies and this means a REAL trade tech sharing you'd give me colonisation without asking anything in return... am I wrong? This can be the first proof of trust. I am researching colonization so if you'd give me that I could go for Piracy.
One other thing we could do would be to divide the North world so that at least we both don't stress in competing for settling. The Dutch might be in the way but there could be a first obstacle for our Girlie Power Alliance to overcome...
I am sending my tactical map for free as a proof of my good intentions.
I must say I do not have any settler in your territory so I don't plan to settle inside your radius. I do plan to settle near Norfolk but that is not inside
your radius.

Me ... Dear sweet French Suitor
Firstly I made a mistake ... thought you were Joan ... ooops
This is why I suggested girly power ... but I was actually thinking that I would mention that I was actually a male who enjoyed the feel of silk, satin, frills and pearls carressing the skin LOL
So I guess back to the Royal Marriage ... unless you would like to share your own cross dressing secrets ;-)
Now that I've cleared that up ...
OK ... REAL Alliance means many things to many people.
If we are to gift techs it should be even as well ... with both partners researching at the same level ... I gift you Colonisation ... and will wait for Piracy ... I will also send you Mining some time after I complete it in 4 turns ... don't want our rivals to get suspicious too soon ... This way we will enter the next age together !!!
In return, I'd like to discuss our Wine trade ... can I have it for free ... so could you send me 3 gold per turn ... this way it will not interrupt the current trade. I will send you Tobacco later when I have it connected if you still need it as you have a source North in the radius of Louisburg.
I also think that in the spirit of our secret marriage ... Any extra luxury or strategic resource should be automatically gifted to the other party ... we are engaged after all LOL
We should swap World Maps too at some stage ...
Regarding our rivals ... I think that we should cease all future technology trade ... and discuss if an opportunity does arise ... I would agree to a veto clause which states that we can trade with any rival ONLY if we both agree.
Settling near Norfolk is cool ... I plan to expand up the far north ... but also to go west from Norfolk to hem the Dutch into a small territory. Your expansion into Aztec lands is good as it will stop the Spanish.
Also to show trust ... you may look in my spoiler ... I trust in your sportsmanship
Cheers

France ... Dear Sir,
There has been a serious misunderstanding in our letters!!! Last letter was a joke sent by my
daughter... she is a beautiful girl but still young and wild... therefore the confusion... anyway, I meant
what I said by Royal marriage as I propose you to marry my daughter to seal our agreement, as it is
tradition in our times.
Thank you for Colonisation. I will gift you Piracy when I have it. However, Piracy is 50% more expensive than mining so it's likely that I'll take more time than you to get it. Not to mention I have a late start due to have researched Colonization for around 3 turns.
I think it would reasonable that we enter the next stage together. People will suspect that we've traded techs but from trading techs (which I've done with Spain and Portugal as well) to an alliance is a big step.
I agree with the free resources swapping. If u really need 3 gpt I will send them to you but I'm having a treasury loss when I research at 50% (that's why I am having a lower tech advance than most of you).
When you get tobacco we'll see if I also need it.
Maps... yes, we should trade world maps. I meant to send it this turn but I forgot (I had 10 PBEM .sav on my inbox). Hopefully I'll remember next turn.
I built those cities near the Aztecs to try and stop the Spanish but I plan to build a few cities up North
as this is faster than going all the way to almost Central America. But maybe I can have the North North (West of my northern cities) and then the central area near the Aztec.
Rivals - I agree with your 'veto' policy. So if only both agree one trade should be done. But I think this
should be for all kinds of trade.
My biggest concern is the Spanish. In the short-term we might have to deal with the Dutch, but in the
long-run I think is the Spanish who gathers the best range of skills to win the game.
I did take a look at the spoiler (very funny) and sent you a PM about it.
Cheers,
Roy de France, father of an extremely beautifull wild girl

I, Ferric Auris III Queen of England, who is actually a man, but one with a weakness for women's fashion am betrothed. wonder who will wear the wedding dress me or the 'young, extremely beautiful and wild' French bride, daughter of Roy de France, the King of France.
Kingdoms Alligned
This includes doubling our tech research, trading knowledge cheaply, sharing plans and maps, sharing intelegence of the other teams ... and dividing the new world which will hamper the expansion of the others ... Any extra luxury or strategic resource should be automatically gifted to the other party ... we are engaged after all LOL ... We should swap World Maps too at some stage ...
Regarding our rivals ... I think that we should cease all future technology trade ... and discuss if an opportunity does arise ... I would agree to a veto clause which states that we can trade with any rival ONLY if we both agree.
French Pirate will be named with a W.

Me ... Nicely Written
Look into my spoiler any time you want ...
How about I give you Mining when you can afford to lose the 3 per gold ... I do use cash to rush buildings ... important to remember is that Tobacco Plantation and other lux specific buildings will get those treasure chests generated ...
Can't wait to go Pirate Hunting ... but you must tell me the names of your ships so i do not take them when I police the seas LOL ... or better still if you do not intend to name them ... just change the spelling.
I may even be able to road for you at some stage.
Cheers

Me ... Greetings
How is your lovely daughter ... in good health I trust? ... Good ... now to business.
I have sent you the charts of the world as we know it ... I have rushed my research of Mining at a deficit to my economy however all is well as I will concentrate on wealth while awaiting Privateers from you ... I will send it onto you next turn.
All my vessels are now Carracks ... I intend to really go for colonising the new world ... the Dutch are building a road west I must plant a city on a certain recourse rich area very soon. Also I will have my first of many knights to deal with those pesky tribes and to swiftly and safely transport my treasures.
Pleasant expansion

How is the little flower, my bride to be?
I cannot build pirates only privateers ... and must be at war to take foreign shipping.
Together we shall control the seas, I will act as your eyes so that you can take the ships of the Dutch, Spain and the Portugese and at the same time I will rid the waters of pirate scum.

PS. I have sent you Mining as most except Dutch have it ... perhaps you could persuade them to research Fortifications in return for giving it early ... they just completed (or traded) Naval Ordinance condition they have to give you 1 gold per turn until they complete the trade (that way they will research faster)

France ... Thanks ... Thank u for your gift.
I have asked some poor painter to make a portrait of my daughter to send to you. He is an italian name Michael Angel or something ... not a very gifted
artist, but enough for the job. When he's finished you might be able to see all her beatifullness!
I forgot who are not a Pirate type of nation... not too fair, I'd have to say. Specially taking into consideration the 'real' British history during these times...
Cheers,
Le 'Macho' Roy

Me ... Greetings Le 'Macho' Roy
Hey I look forward to receiving the portrait of your fair and wild daughter (in a spoiler I trust ) ... anyway to business.
Firstly I trust you are aware that St. Mary's City will be expanding her border in 2 turns ... I only mention this as I see you wasting time with a colonist heading west to a gap that will not be there for long.
Secondly have you sent the diplomacy off to the Dutch enticing them to research Fortification in return for Mining.
