I thought I established one last turn just not as strong as this turn. My whole plan was to keep the Scottish army stuck in Ireland. Oh well I may have forgotten that part due to me being in a hurry the turn before.

Well, I'm kinda confused as to why the HCE's casualties are so low and why I was stopped so quickly. Also, Bulgaria doesn't seem to have made much of an impact at all on Khazaria, especially given the large land area and small army of Khazaria that was largely committed south. One would think they would have made much more headway. I guess surprise isn't enough. Next time I'll have to write a lot of stories.
Good update though! Things could most certainly have been worse!
Good update though! Things could most certainly have been worse!
The white parley flag fluttered in the winds of the southern Korean mountains, the sound of hoof beats echoing upon the stone streets in the quiet capital city.Fearful eyes looked upon the imperious, somewhat small man upon the armored horse.
The Iron masks upon his gaurdians were all the evidence they needed to confirm the identity of this man. The Second son of Yesugei, Jochi Khasar, flanked by his loyal retainers, the Iron Face Demons. Their bloody apperence, and iron masks were enough to cow the people of Pusan into silence.
Thus, it was a silent march towards the capital's palace, a fearful populace hoping that by some measure, peace would be achieved, and the fury of the Iron Face Demons would be avoided.
At the gates of the palace, the gaurds there tired from the long, hard fought war merely grunted as they opened the gates, saying nothing to the diplomatic party as they passed.
Dismounting their horses, leaving a sizable force there to gaurd them, the diplomatic party entered into the palace and quickly made their way into the throne room. An elder man sat upon the throne of Silla, and he seemed pale and gaunt, as if his very skin was sagging off his bones. He was but a tired, peace loving old man, wishing to see any kind of peace returned to his homeland.
His sons would have fought to the end, but unfortunetly, that fate would be one to horrible to afford to his people. An end forged in fire, split in the blood of his people as they were pillaged and raped by these elite Demons from the north. It would not do to be King, and allow such travesty to happen. He rose, after several moments of silence.
"You have parley with me, upon the subject of peace?" said the King of Silla, hoping that somehow, his people would be saved.
A slight smile broke upon the face of Jochi, and he began speaking rapidly in Mongolian, as an Iron Face Demon stepped forward, and spoke the translation in a dull monotone, his iron mask making his voice echo hauntingly in the great hall.
The provisions of our treaty are as thus:

Excellent update. Everything that I expected to happen, did. I will have a division of former Svearland in a few minutes. And here it is.
FROM: The Holy Celtic Empire
TO: Denmark and the rebels in former Svearland
Here is our proposal for the end of the Northern War
Finland becomes an independent state.
Norway is reconstituted as an independent state.
Scania goes to Denmark.
The Baltic Isles go to the Holy Celtic Empire.
The Svear rebels establish a government in the remaining domains of former Svearland
The Unified Trinitist Church is abolished, and an inquisition conducted.
All parties sign an alliance.

Has nobody yet run into perfectionists *secret* troops...? If they had been in fighting we would know what they were, right?

Nice update Imago. Wow, talk about a penalty for not sending orders. Ouch. Is it just me or is the entire world involved in Holy Wars? Mongols religion is war, making it a holy war. Crusades from Khazaria and Benjids, Bachiria, Tunis, Aegypt, Morocco, Axum, HCE, Svearland (which no longer exists) are all at war for religion. Wow, big influence in this game.
To Malagasya
From Axum
We propose a peace treaty, with the following conditions:
a) Peace with Axum at current borders
b) Resignation and exile to mainland colony of the king
c) Payment of 1 IC for all damage done to Jewish and Indians
d) Cease all expansion on the mainland
e) Allow and pay for all Jews to move to Axumite Malagasya, as well as any Indians who so choose, so that no more oppression can happen
f) A 30-year NAP and trade agreement signed between Axum and Malagasya
To Delhi
From Axum
Do not feel a need to repay us just yet, as you are still at war. Repayment shall come on your schedule.

I think it is more people using religion as an excuse for war than religion itself as a direct cause for the war...
Mongols aren't using religion as an excuse to war (and we do have our own religion), as our entire purpose for existing as a nation is for conquest.

Considering the naval campaign with battles and such, the adverse weather conditions in Scandinavia that I mentioned in my orders and that you took no notice of and the like I fail to see why the Celtic-Dane army was so well supplies. Let alone the Rebels which quite frankly would of had traitors and the like (from loyalist Svearish).
To be honest I have every reason to note of the favouritism awarded to Perfectionist.
Futhermore with the majority of the Celtic Army in Scandinavia I find it surprising that the Byzantines didnt make larger gains either. Imean without a Celtic army to actually defend with, dont you think the Byzantines would of actually gone further.
Put simply because of these reasons, the others stated before and many more, I dont think I will be staying in this nes.

Mongol's don't need an excuse for war
I'm mainly talking about the more "western" wars i guess.
Nicely done Imago.

Of course it did. Imago does whatever you tell him to do, and be damned with the rest of the players that are here.

I was referring to the Byzantine and Ctha'rist invasions. Now, as you are no longer in this NES and have nothing constructive to say, kindly leave the thread.
Lighten up guys.

I will lighten up once Imago stops favouring Perfectionist and allowing him to do whatever he wants.
Funny how Perfectionist will probably win the next several wars until Imago realises that such favouritism is unhealthy for a nes.

Check yours Kiddo!
They were low because virtualy the entire HCE army was killing Svearland. You were stopped so quickly because of terrain difficulties. Bulgaria didn't make as much headway as you would have liked because of its minor civil war, and because das left more troops then you might think at home for defense.
The Great Crusades: HCE, Iberia, Italia, Benjid Empire, Khazaria, Bachira vs. Aegypt, Tunis, Morocco, Byzantium, Bulgaria, Persia
If various alliances are triggered, England, Svearland, Norway, Denmark, Ireland and Finland will all enter next turn on the Trinitist/Yehudan side, and Scotland will come in de facto on the Ctha'r/Kyrian side. Also, if once considers Delhi to be on the Trinitist/Yehudan side for being at war with Persia, then Simhala and Bengal are both on the Ctha'r/Kyrian side. Axum seems to be the wild card, as it would have religious regions to enter the war on either side.
Big war, eh?
It was mentioned, if very briefly. The reasons the effects of the weather were muted was because your navy quality was one, due to the recent rapid growth, and because the Dane fleets were leading the Celtic fleets, and the Danes were used to the same weather the Svears were.
@Everyone who has a complaint, mentioned or not: I know the update was sub-par, and I apoligize.

Do not pretend you have the moral right. However, we are defeated, and we will agree to all your terms save one. You can keep the eco center at the north of our island, and a small buffer around it, but we need you to restore the rest of our island to us.

To Malagasya
From Axum
As this was not a war of conquest, but a war to save the oppressed minorities, we do not need to keep all of the land. We shall merely keep the north tip of the island so that we may ensure that never again will you oppress jews. We shall keep a northern buffer zone that is large enough for all jews and indians who so choose to live there.
In exchange for your capital and large tracts of country land, you shall cede us your colony on the mainland. We shall repatriate all people who desire to return to the rule of Malagasya, and as well send a shipment of aid over to you. However, we will not give up conquered lands without repayment, and as the island is more important to you, we shall take your colony instead.
Also, we remove the clause of exile of the king, simly his resignation of the throne. Finally, where do you get off telling us that we don't have moral right? We are treating the Indians under us as if they were Axumites. You on the other hand, oppressed Jews and Indians alike, and we have proof of this. So we would ask you NOT to tell us you are morally superior in this war.
