(OOC) I am completely behind EQ and his decisions, size is not the only reason for an armies victory. Look at WWI, Russia out-numbered Germany but Germany still defeated Russia without any problems. Just because they have a smaller army doesn't mean that make thems weaker. Your front-line Generals in Ireland might not be making good tactical decisions while Ireland's Generals are. Also I notice your only complaining now your losing, just look at me! 
In the two major wars I've been in I've been completely surrounded by enemies and suffered major defeats and had to give up land to my enemies for peace, then when I invaded France without a problem the next thing I know is that Rome and the UK both have made large advancements into my territory. I can understand why people might be annoyed by results but that's the way it is, you win some you lose some.
I felt like quitting when I was being beat and almost did one time, but I decided to stay and battle on, and that's what Imsw and Evyle should do right now, battle on.
Plus I need you guys as my allies

Eithiopia cheers as the last of their troops enter friendly borders. The first merchants in many years from Egypt come across the borders to the eager Ethiopian enconomy.
The people are disgusted at the Arab race and wants them destroyed. Supreme Lord Scott issued that it is a waste of time to think about the puny arab nation. He also stated that they can attack all he wants, just remember Mecca and how easy it was to raid the capital....
ORDERS:
start the training of more troops and start building more ships.

oops better update timeline thread so there is more room on page 1
Major global event:
In a massive celebration all of the people across the world celebrated the long-lasting RTOR2 NES for 5 years, then they stood around and wondered what the heck a NES is for the next 5 years. All fighting was stopped as celebrating began and people stopped all they were doing and celebrated as brothers.
A speech:
RTOR 2 has been going on since September with occasion breaks and pauses. There are almost 2000 posts on the thread making it the largest in the entre Stories and Tales forums and possible even the entire Civ3 forum. There are several other threads and stories posted about it as well. It has survived 2 flame wars one of which almopst killed it. It has survived a shutdown as well as several competeing sequels. As Admiral Super said: "you have two cows. They are immortal."
When the original Return to Roots was started by Toasty i played the part of a domination crazed madman, much like Anarchy is today . Once in a while i would post pretty stupid NESs which would get at max 3 or 4 players then die after 2 days. When i opened this one i figured it would fail as quickly as the rest. Obviously i was wrong.
Before evyle and imsw left we had 17 players, easily one of the largest if not the largest on the forum. With the humble start of 4 players, me, Toasty, Jason, and uknemisis none of us could have predicted this. Our world has seen 3 world wars and is in the middle of the 4th, we have progressed through many ages of history and are still advancing. nations like babylon, Persia, England, and Greece have all come and gone.
I am posting this because the holidays are coming for you Americans and other people who celbrate Christmas. With all the fighting everywhere i figured your peoples needed a break .
I see RTOR as the example for future NESs. Already it has spread to other NESs like RTOR5 and stJNES and possibly stshNES if i guess right. After all we can never forget that this NES forum was started upon a NES created long ago which was a true NES. One thing we should never forget like i have said many times since before Toasty started the original RTOR is that the key word in Never ending story is STORY. It isn't Never ending Board Game. On other websites i have encountered Never-ending stories which are stories added onto by people from online.
One final word:
First Civfanatics then the world BWUHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
some notable times in RTOR history:
the first World War
the war against the Iriquois
the fall of England
the 3 or 4 Babylonian-Indian Wars
any of imsw's posts with stories
The early wars against the Vikings

Is the NHC free or not???

Iceeye if you read Sir Lancelots thread you can read that someone can control his countrey until he will come back from his grandma (around 2 weeks now).

Emperor
oh, so NHC is only NPC untill he comes back?
Jason The King

exactly. IceEye, you can cause a rebellion and fight your way to freedom if you want to play. It's best to choose a colony, that way the mother nation isn't too upset.
Colonies that I know of are:
Indian Indonesia
Aborigine Madagascar
French Argentina
Newly Aquired French Quebec*
Andes Confederation Phillipines
*=Was taken in a new war just last turn, I don't know if they will keep it or not, so not technically a colony.
Of course you can just rebel inside the motherland of a country, but it is unlikely that you will win.
Eq or anyone else, correct me if I am wrong.

It is a hard thing for an NES to survive, but if any can this one will.
I reccomend my new NES as a temporary alternative, or as a new NES to join.
