stXNES1; the freshmaker

[North King]

It would have helped my warmaking abilities if I actually knew how big the enemy's forces were.

 

[Xen]

hmmm, well, dont drop out yet, and mabey by next update you'll get a present

 

[North King]

If this "present" has anything to do with the "rumbles" in the jungle, then I'm outta here.

 

[Xen]

well, i ment the stats for some fo those nations, which would have lead to such rumbles

OOC: Decided to switch the narrative from that old drunkard Fretigern to his brother... who seems to be a mad scientist. Enjoy.

IC:

Athanarik was fairly enraged. That darn drunk Fretigern accomplished so much... And no matter what drunken oaths Athanarik had him make, he seemed to climb out of everything! He even persuaded the Ostrogoth king to agree to cease the war, and he kinda DID cease Roxolianni independance, albeit in the wrong way.

"Rekagarth!" - yelled Athanarik

"Yes, master?" - Rekagarth said in his sickly voice.

"Prepare the coup, and sign peace with Romans. And don't forget to begin our little... experiment in Crimea..."

"Surely you do not mean..." - Rekagarth said in a normal voice, full of fear

"I mean just that, now GO!" - yelled Athanarik.

"Yes, master." - replied Rekagarth in his sickly voice.

"And stop saying "Yes, master" like that - can't you just speak normal?"

From: Visigoths
To: Eastern Roman Empire

We want it because... uh... it's a nice view from there?

Roxolianni attacked our scouts who accidentally walked into their territory, and we had to avenge them.

 

[foolish icarus]

yes, please- make sure you make note in the title that they are both new orders, and to disreagrd the old ones/what exactley you want (example: -nation name-,New orders. Disregard old orders

I don't want to change them. I meant, do you still have them? If you do, they are still up-to-date.

 

[Amenhotep7]

To Visigoths

As long as you don't try to claim the entire Black Sea as yours, then I've no real problem. Also, expect a little surprise soon from us to help heal old wounds. (You don't have to pay me for Crimea, for one thing.)

And we would like to agree to an NAP.

 

[Xen]

all this pansy-assness will be reflected in the update.

this is the beginning of the ****ing "traditional dark ages after all (my beginiing fo the darkages basically being initiated with retirement of Diocletian, and the eventual ascendence of Constantine, and really kicking into gear with Theodosius)

 

[Amenhotep7]

I'm not being a pansy! I'm trying to heal old wounds. That's what nations do (or should do) after a war.

 

[foolish icarus]

Pansy-assness? I thought it was strategy. You guys are going to combine forces to fight the Huns, right?

 

[Amenhotep7]

Exactly.

 

[Xen]

I'm not being a pansy! I'm trying to heal old wounds. That's what nations do (or should do) after a war.

except those deep wounds are astoundiglly deep- the Romans wert really rascist in the sense that white is better then black- no, they were remarkabley advananced in social out look regarding what we now define as race- however, the best word to use to descibe the romans out look is 'culturalist'- they essentially veiwed most non meditteranean based cultures with utter contempt, particuraley in this period fo time

thus, if you woke trouble, I'll cause trouble- though in a very different manner then what you might expect

 

[Xen]

Pansy-assness? I thought it was strategy. You guys are going to combine forces to fight the Huns, right?

the huns arnt a problem unless you piss them off

and yes, pansyassness- I may hate moderateing the numbers and such, but I do enjoy a good battle

 

[foolish icarus]

Is this your way of telling us that the Huns killed us all?

 

[Amon Savag]

Is this your way of telling us that the Huns killed us all?

I bet he forgot all about us,and went wherever he was going without updating a last time.Thus meaning we have the privilage of calling him lazy.

 

[das]

Ah, excellent. By the way, Xen, didn't Romans kinda allow Germannic tribes to settle in their territory, and later allied with some of them against the very same Huns?

 

[Xen]

@Das- yes, that is what happend- but it wasnt supposed ot be that way- the germanic tribest were to suposed to settle in Roman lands, and become Roman subject, eventually., over time, and perhaps a generation, earn citizenship- they were also supposed to be loyal to Rome, and provide recruits for the army, but that didnt all work out well.

now, that said, i dont think I have all tyhe orders in, and i wont even think of updateing until they are all in.

 

[alex994]

u have my orders!

 

[North King]

You ought to have mine. Perhaps you could put of a list of whose orders you need and whose you don't...
