Greater Xavax Imperium

[Ossan]

But why would she want all the Vix dead? They're the good guys! :D

I sincerely enjoy thinking about Vix as the good guys from The Sundering. Or at least Joran perfectly fits the picture - honourable, unforgiving, self-righteous dick.

Honestly north holds a huge advantage right now. 1/3 more nobles, potentially 1/2 more CS available on short notice. But most importantly with the inclusion of GX nobles north started to finally work cohesively! No more strategic blunders.

Even more so, three of the southern realms are a mix of just plain underpopulated and long travel times making their poorly led military help of little consequence. Plus at least one is just plain barbaric.

So were BoM and Norland, didn't stop them from packing quite a decent punch  ;D

Ah Norland. The infamous Squirrel army and never-ending piles of waffles. That was one of my first realms when I started BM, they were a riot!

*rumbling INCREASES*

MEEP! D:

They're returning!

Maybe, maybe not. You might be rid of us for good...

[DeVerci]

certain rumor mills say otherwise

[JeVondair]

certain rumor mills don't have to deal with Elvish 'diplomacy'...

[D'Espana]

So are we still migrating North?

[DeVerci]

No, lay down your arms and join the greatest Democracy on the Eastern Continent.

[JeVondair]

I'd say that democracy's for losers but...*gestures broadly at everything*

[D'Espana]

Duly noted. I'll see if I can unpause next week, now that I'm (finally) all set up in LA. Been missing you guys last month  ;D

Seriously though - IC my character is very glad of such turn of events but OOC I'm rather sad. GX was the best enemy I've ever had, both strategy wise and RP wise. Not to mention probably very fun and lively realm (probably because I've never had the opportunity to pull a Gildre and see for myself). I'll never forget post-battle Leibo banters, Essenhorn's duels, Betholm-Enubec cat and mouse runs back when GX had 20k+ CS.

With Dwillight being all dull, GX doing so splendid job at being Vix's opponent (and Vix being extremely friendly realm to be in) is probably what kept me in battlemaster when I was still a newbie here.

Don't fell bad about GX meeting it's end though. Battlemaster is all about stories, and stories have a beginning and an end. And Greater Xavax story is an epic one.

[Gabanus family]

You talk as if GX' story is done for?

[JeVondair]

I don't make a habit of sharing the various machinations my characters are working through, not in their entirety anyway, but the basic gist snapshot is that the Xavax by and large want to continue the fight against the Southern Alliance. Oligarch offers the best platform for them to do so. Sirion, however, feels the Xavax should be grateful that they were allowed to take estates in Sirion.


Selenia disagrees.
