Update Three: 590AD
As the Iberians expand north near Portugal the East Iberians build up thier army on the border of Grenada. The Iberians of Grenada do the same though find themselves outnumbered three to one. The people of the border villages grow frightened as they seem thier ruler is doing nothing.

In Southern Europe the Illyricums continue to use thier snow method to rid the people of thier overwhelming thirst. Though the population grows and more is needed. Many die in a matter of two years and the research is still slow at 100%. The nation is in need of more money to continue funding and increasing the speed of the research to save the people.

The Thessolonican city near Macedon joins King Phillip as he moves his army north to fight the Thracians who flee from the Huns. As they are terrified from becoming Hun meat the Thracians burn whatever they see and run through Macedonian land. Just as leaving the Macedonian army meets them, at the Macedonian capitol of Pelium. The battle was raging as the panicing Thracians did whatever to win, though as untrained as they were, they suffered a loss to the Macedonians. Many casualties on both sides as the Thracians fled to the west. Feeling confident of thier victory they moved north to pillage the old Thracian fort, they gain a couple gold pieces though find a messenger from the Huns.

In Greece the Spartans the the Athenians continue to fight as thier stalemate ends. The impressive Athenian tactics and strategy totally gets the Spartans off guard gaining much land for Athens as thier army crushs the Spartans. The Spartans are now dependant on conscripts of the people, though continuos defeats worry them. Many lands rebell from Sparta and join Athens.

In England the intense researching of Iron Works have been finished! New weapons like the Sword has been developed. Though the fight against the Anglo-Saxons continue, both sides begin to ware each other down. The Anglo-Saxons are driven out of Briton lands while pillaging many towns on the way. Briton lost much gold, though they have thier lands secure, for now.

In Asia minor the Philistines fully load thier ships and commit themselves to no more Athenian attacks. Instead, they invade Byzantium. The Spearmen with not too many troops defending try to defend though flee from the city. The Philistines take alot of gold and retreat to thier nearest base.

The Italians begin to grow fond of peaceful expansion, and so like the Papacy, they build a city. This economical boost makes them the most richest nation in the world, after the Papacy.

The Catalans attack! They massacre MANY civilians and MANY troops. They loot much gold and leave the Spainiards in a total disadvantage. The people become overwhelmingly disloyal and scared thinking that thier ruler is dead without speaking for 30 years. Thier income decreases by two gold. Though some light comes as the new Spanish Spearmen was recruited and ready for a counter attack.

The largest attack of Europe has been done in France. The Germanic and Visigoths pierce through the Frankish lands like a knife with butter. The casualties and losses where much more than that of Spain and thier Catalan attack. The population was nearly halved, and most of the army was decimated as the Germanics killed each and every one. Only 100 legionaries was left to defend the lands.

Diplo:
From Huns
To Macedonians:
You should well enough know of our bloody reputation of killing, and so you maybe even fear us by the way the Thracians were taken from thier lands. We will leave you in peace, only if you pay us a generous tribute of gold to save the lives of your people, and even yourself.

From Thessolonica
To Macedonia:
We still await your gold payment.


OOC
YOU GUYS WILL NEED TO TITLE YOUR ORDERS WITH THE NAME OF YOUR CIV WITH YOUR ORDERS, OR ELSE YOUR ORDERS WILL BE IGNORED
@Death, your horseback thing... it has to be a tech to research... sorry. Soon, I will make technology faster where you can research multiple techs at a time, but for now its only one unless you switch. I also changed your nation name to the Britons, it sounds better.
@Constantine, you got no expansion becuase you didn't specifically said where to expand.

King Philip was in danger. Just after he had bought Thessolonica and defeated the Thracans, he had got a message from the Huns. He feared these migthy warriors and he didn´t want to fight them. A tribute would be the only way to save his country. But still he had sent a message to the Papacy asking for advice.


To: The Papacy
Greatings Pope John the I!
We just noticed that we dont need your money. Thanks that you were willing to lend us something. But we have another problem now. The barbarian Huns in the north threaten us. They said that they will invade us if we don´t pay tribute to them. We ask for an advice from you. Should we fight them with bow and spear or should we pay them with gold?

King Philip of the Macedons

To: Thessolonica
Dont worry we have sent an escorted wagon with your gold to you. It was a wise decision to join the Macedons! We just got a message from the Huns. They threaten to attack us! But dont worry, we have asked the Pope for adive. He should know best how to handle these barbarians.

King Philip of the Macedons

To: The Huns
Yes we have heard about the riders from the east. But dont think that the Macedons are weak! We just dont like to throw our country in one war after the other. How big should this tribute be? We are a small nation without a big treasure. What do you think about 1gpt? This tribute may change if we grow but if you dont let us grow we are not able to pay you more. If you dont accept please say what you want before you invade us. We are willing to negotiate.

King Philip of the Macedons

Orders:
-pay 5g to Thessolonica
-pay 1gpt to the Huns
-keep researching with 2g
-bank 3g
-Attack remaining Thracians with full force and loot their camps (Need the map!)

(OOC: 1.Illyricum doesn´t have conntact with anybody 2.Why didn´t my population grow? I added a whole city to my Kingdom!)

To Illyricum
From Pope John the I:
Hello! We have heard of your struggle to help your people. We would be willing to give you a loan to your people from our banks, though we want interest when it is repaid. How much do you need?

To Macedonia
From Pope John the I:
The Huns are VERY powerful and thier threats should be taken seriously. Pay them and save the lives of the many people in your country. They will never bother you if they get money.

ooc: Map is posted. Illyricum DOESN'T have contact with anyone but the pope. I will fix your population. Update should be tommorrow, I dont know.
 
Greece

King Alexander's plans had been extremely successful. The Athenian ambush had decimated a large part of the Spartan Army. This defeat, along with some Philistine invasions from the south, had cause a large drop of confidence in the Spartan people. Many of them, no longer trusting in their government, had revolted to Athens. Many of those who stayed joined the army. King Alexander, knowing that the Spartan army was now composed mostly of raw recruits, believed that the "mop-up" of the Spartans would be quick, but by no means a cakewalk. Soon, the Greek ReUnification would be complete.

Meanwhile, the King insisted on the expansion of the navy, for some unknown reason...


Orders:
Build 10 Barques for 6 gold.
Build 500 archers for 3 gold.
Continue the war on Sparta. The main forces of Sparta have been destroyed, leaving only peasant recruits. The Athenian army is to focus on both routing these remaining forces and securing as much land as possible, and then laying siege to the city of Sparta itself.
 
NEW RULE: READ NOW!
There are many that want to play this game. The specific requirments for this game is to be "into" it and not slack off with it. So in conclusion, if you do not post for 2 updates I will take you out of the game and give it to someone that wants it. If you are posting but only once and not playing NES the way its supposed to be then its the same thing. If you are not interested, please dont bother, my feelings wont get hurt if you quit. ;) This is only in exception if you notify us and will be realy busy. ;)
 
Spain

Spain was in a horrible state today. Barbarian Catalans were attemtpine to overrun the kingdome! Somthing must be done!
The Generals had organized a huge number of spearmen into regiments of 400 each and one of 300. They were going to defend their homeland to the last!
The diffrent regiments were sent to various easily defendable points on the Spanish countryside. There they would make the stands that would determine the future of the kingdom of Spain.
The King also decided he needed to do somthing to help the peasents. He decided to save most of his gold and dedicate 60% of his gold to reaserching new farming techniques.

Orders:
reaserch
defend land
