Newer Kabrinskia vs. Terran Thread

[Zakilevo]

Wow....that's some good bloodmoon fruit....

Can you overdose on that?

[Uzamaki]

Wow....that's some good bloodmoon fruit....

Indeed...

My prediction: Terran gets a somewhat costly peace(moderately bad reparations, no regions lost) and goes home. Asylon loses everything North of Kybcyell. Glaumring is either protested out or rebelled out of power and replaced. Asylon then practically becomes the Libero Empire of the West, autonomous to a degree, but always fearful of upsetting the SA federation(whoa, federation now. But doesn't really change anything. :P). Then my guess is Allison and Kabrinskia decides to pay Terran another visit and a new war starts up. That's as far as I'll go...

No one chickens out. Kabrinskia has better ways to use its army than to start invading Terran, and Terran doesn't want to provoke Astrum and friends by escalating things on their end. My conclusion: Things continue exactly as they are right now for the foreseeable future, unless someone decides to throw all caution to the winds and do something really crazy.

Well,  I did do something really crazy...   I offered Terran peace terms.  More favorable than the ones Hireshmont gave me /and/ I even offered to not become the next Zuma ambassador like Garret used to be.  I also offered to give up the throne and to leave Kabrinskia.   I dunno if Terran will accept or not.  I did offer to give an apology and accept responsibility and pay them 1000 gold.

Now that... That is crazy.

I win if they accept..

Asylon loses Via and Itau to Kabrinskia, ex-Via nobles move to D'Hara to recuperate/sow the seeds of raaaaaage. Terran sues for peace. Astrum goes home to deal with what is left of Summerdale.

6 months from now, Terran-Barca-Auravandil-D'Hara launches a war against Kabrinskia and the SA federation. Luria secures the Balance area and sets its eyes on Unterstrom to further spread its Empire. A massive West-North-East war begins. Them the Zuma says "!@#$ you all" and rampages all the way to Storm's End.

And they all lived happily ever after.

That... Actually sounds quite exciting.

Terran pools all of its resources together including family wealth, gold from friends elsewhere, sells all their earthly possessions, etc. and gathers an army of 50,000 CS and decides to march on Golden Farrow.


However, all of our nobles find more entertaining things to do and after 3 weeks of trying to get all our nobles from Chateau Saffalore to Faithill, we finally start the invasion of Kabrinskia. 50,000 CS arrives in waves over about 7 turns. The entire army is obliterated by Kabrinskian militia build in Demyansk.

Womp womp...

Wait, did this already happen?

[Glaumring the Fox]

Feylonis is wrong... What is going to actually happen is that 5676433466cs from Aurvandiil is going to smash into Astrum like an asteroid and obliterate their capital city... Asylon will strike Kabrinskia destroying the Cambodian puppet state like a bag of rice at a bayonette party. Afterwards Terran , D'Hara and Asylon will rip apart Astrum like a dumb looking doll at a Slayer concert.... The end.

Aurvandil is strong, but not that strong(and it's quite a trip North for them). D'Hara and Barca haven't entered the war for various reasons and you think they will just because you say 'hey, we can win if you come!'? Terran is pursuing peace. This war will not end well for Asylon unless something changes.

Edit: And you're not even allies...

[Indirik]

The hardest part of Aurvandil getting troops north is the political finagling for passage rights. They would have to get permission from D'Hara to send troops to attack Kabrinskia and/or Astrum. That is a huge escalation of the war, and directly brings D'Hara into the war. Which opens them to attack from the eastern powers, including Corsanctum and Morek.

The distance is long, but not insurmountable. I've batted around some ideas for ways that such long-distance warfare could be done. I doubt too many people would be willing to do it, though.

[Ehndras]

Ship warfare is too much to ask... Sigh...

We can dream. It'd make coastal cities more dangerous yet profitable to hold, and add a new level of dynamics to world economy, politics, and war. Weather conditions could speed or slow entire fleets, and one could either go with a player-per-ship model like current sea/land travel, or go with a tactic I've seen in a few games where ships depart at regular/irregular intervals and you either make it on the ship or you wait for the next one, a-la proper pre-modern times.

*shrug* Oh well.
