SKNES: Architecture of Aggression

[Terrance888]

Is it possible for one person to send the war orders of an entire alliance with others just providing flavor? They do that in IOTs IIRC. If it is, I vote Sam Sniped, with me as backup if needed . Hopefully this will prevent conflicting war orders in that regard.

To: Our brothers in Zenegid
From: Your brothers in Badajoz

We wish you luck in your Jihad. We also send you your aid as requested, and we are discussing the possibility of joining in the next ten years (next turn).

OOC Note: My military orders will be resent in the HRE group. Whatever is in there will supersede whatever I sent in my private orders. However, everything else in my private orders still stands.

I don't think that should be allowed, necessarily, unless all armies are under one overall general, and I doubt considering the time period many would be happy with that. Coalitions are prone to failures, mistakes and overall lack of communication at times. I'd certainly hope a European wide crusade doesn't go splendidly without a hitch in communications.

Though, if SK thinks otherwise, I must similarly request overall control of the NPC's that are helping me out.

 

[SouthernKing]

@above: You do have military control over NPCs on your side.

 

[GamezRule]

OOC: If I were actually fighting, I'd never allow the legitimate Emperor's fine army to be controlled by a foreigner.

Diplo has failed orders in 12 hours

 

[SouthernKing]

Work on update has begun, but as it's not getting done today, there is still time to send orders, so here's VM drop time!

Have orders from:
Avars (BSmith1068)
Axum (DC123456789)
Badajoz (Mickzter97)
Brythonia (Gem Hound)
Poland (spaceman98)
The Pope (Jehoshua)
Sicily (mythmonster2)
Suomi (m.t.cicero)
Vandals (Grandkhan)

Need orders from:
Aquitaine (Terrance888)
Armenia (Lokki242)
France <nuke>
Novgorod (Popcornlord)
Rome (MusicLord)
Taman (Bair_The_Normal)
Venice (SamSniped)
Zengids (TheLizardKing)

I'm on AIM right now if anyone has any questions or just wants to chat.
Also, if your alliance has warplans that have been developed as a whole I only need one copy of that, no need to include it in PM'd orders unless there's a change you personally want to make.

 

[GamezRule]

I will send orders as soon as I get a reply on my PM. Was working earlier so I couldn't send it then. I have them mostly ready.

 

[TheLizardKing]

Birthday is over with. Sorry about that. Starting on orders now, and hopefully will have them finished within the hour.

 

[SouthernKing]

Update news: Currently a little over 50% done. I went off to see the Dark Knight Rises this morning and just came back to restart work. Expect update tomorrow.

 

[DC123456789]

I'm guessing that this update is pretty bloody?

 

[TheLizardKing]

I'm hoping it is.

 

[spaceman98]

OOC: Doing my part to make it so!

 

[SouthernKing]

Yes, it's bloody. TerraNES levels of bloodshed, really. Maybe even more.

 

[SamSniped]

You're welcome

 

[DC123456789]

Once this crusade is over, you should release a list of how many people died fighting. It'll probably be the hundreds of thousands.

 

[SamSniped]

The Song of The Marinas
From the ports of Anatolia
To the shores of Tripoli;
We fight our country's battles
On the coast, and in the sea;
First to fight for the Republic,
We defend Mare Nostrum:
We are the Venetian Marinas,
And to the enemies' doors we come.

Our flag sways in the salty sea breeze
From dawn to setting sun;
Valiant with our sword,
We cause the enemy to run;
Fighting across the rocks of Greece,
And in sunny tropic beaches;
You will find us always protecting freedom,
The Venetian Marinas.

The Republic is what we guard,
Which we are proud to serve;
The soldiers always first to go,
We never lost our nerve;
If the men of the army or navy
Ever look on Heaven&#8217;s gates;
The guards will be a Marina,
And his three group mates.

 

[TheLizardKing]

Should things go my way, I'd also be interested in civilian casualties.

 

[Terrance888]

The Honorable Aquitainians specifically ordered to minimize such casualties. Our one and only goal is to prosecute the Crusade: punish the Zengids for what they did and restore Axum.
