Why would they? I don't know much about their relationships, so I'm curious.

They have a treaty to defend Barca...but there are...weaknesses...in the treaty.

The weaknesses are that the Zuma have poor memories, along with unique interpretations of agreements. They should get along perfectly with Aurvandil.

It looks like it shall be the fight of the century. In the blue corner, lady aurvandil standing 72 nobles strong and having a serious case of bad diplomacy. In the red corner, the zuma and all I have to say Jim is Dang that thing is ugly.

I'd agree.

Now, the Zuma have also been at war with Morek since forever, but let's see if anything comes out of this.

So, is there a way that Aurvandil could potentially defeat the Zuma? From my understanding, all of the Zuma's regions have minimal population and infrastructure, so looting wouldn't work. Takeovers are also out of the question, because they have such a high number of regions. It would seem to me, that Zuma is practically invincible and that the best outcome for Aurvandil would be to convince the Zuma to make peace, before having to expend might by fighting them.

The Zuma are invading? Ave Auziwandilaz, Avance Victorieuse!

This is just a courtship dance, Mendicant will bed Haktoo eventually.

I am confident this will end up being nothing. Allison will go talk to Haktoo.

Something will come from this, indirectly or otherwise, and it won't be bad for Aurvandil suffice to say.

Yeah, no way the Zuma actually do anything. Not their game.

This seems like the most likely result to me.

But we'll see.

Same here.

if the Zuma go on a rampage now, I'd be happy: it'd be a fulfillment of everything I've been saying they should do (go on rampages massively altering geopolitical balances) for a long time.

But I suspect they won't do anything. They'll just glare over the border and make declarations.
