New Conquests PBEM

Received and sent

Playboy, I asked you earlier here if you wanted me to send a confirm but I didn't see a reply.. If you do I'll try to remember it.

 

[Playboy]

I'm not asking you to do, just stating that I do. Sometimes it's a little more mail to deal with, but it opens backchannel diplomacy with other players.

 

[ironduck]

I didn't realize the turn acknowledgements were tied to diplomacy.. either way, I haven't met you yet!

 

[Rubberjello]

I'll gladly switch starting locations in the game with you Ironduck, if you want to get to know Playboy better. Right now we can spit into each other's backyard!
(Or really rather ) The negotiations for our mutual border is quite intense!

 

[predesad]

The negotiations for our mutual border is quite intense!

diplomacy breaking down ... you can always fight it out on the battlefield

 

[ironduck]

Our plans for a peaceful expansion have been brutally halted as evil men in smelly clothing have uttered curses at us! We fear the glory days of happily playing in the poppy fields could soon be over. Dark clouds are gathering on the sky.

Our hearts are heavy.

 

[predesad]

playboy, still waiting on that post of rules

 

[ironduck]

Rules?

Our foe knows not of rules!

Our foe is smelly!

Our foe has a bad taste in fashion!

Our foe makes us sick!

 

[predesad]

Our foe knows not of rules! Our foe is smelly! Our foe has a bad taste in fashion! Our foe makes us sick!

I'm really not concerned about 'your foe'

But, because I take great pity upon your obviously inferior, poverty stricken nation I will advise you accordingly:

1) Give foe bath
2) Buy foe clothes
3) Send foe to charm school
4) Send foe to obedience school

Should take care of your problems.

 

[Playboy]

Well, actually, if your foe "makes you sick", then by all means you should run away from them as fast as possible every time you see them. You wouldn't want to catch those nasty germs.

Looking for the rules, but they're on a machine which is down at the moment. Will post when I get them.

 

[ironduck]

Pfft!

We will not run from our own lands because of these unsightly barbarians!

 

[predesad]

just hope your lands do not become polluted by your own vomit

 

[predesad]

just putting out a feeler because i haven't seen the turn in a while ... oops nevermind, there's my turn

 

[ironduck]

Sorry, I think I screwed up somehow.. could've sworn I'd sent it

 

[predesad]

Persian Immortals will give you a good flogging in due time as punishment

 

[ironduck]

Do you think they can find their way to this remote part of the planet or do I need to draw out a map for them?

 

[predesad]

we persians are industrious & scientific. not only do we possess the intelligence to find you no matter how remote your location, but we also possess the capabilities of building a bridge to you if necessary

 

[ironduck]

We Celts are a peaceful, agricultural nation of great spiritual wealth and seek no quarrel with the bridge obsessed Persians in the far east.

 

[predesad]

Wealth? did u say wealth? hmmm...

 

[ironduck]

Spiritual wealth. Something it seems you Persians lack. Enlightenment comes not in the form of gold coins, despot.
