The Current War

[Penchant]

You're assuming that with Eston's surrender this war ends?

He thinks Eston's terms will affect how the rest of the war goes.

[Perth]

Indeed, the Cagilans haven't even had the decency to acknowledge Eston's surrender. Hell, we should honestly be still trying to fight considering that, on a practical level, our surrender seems to have fallen on deaf ears.

Precisely. Quite honestly, my Barony Marshal has no idea what orders to give because marching into Eston is suicidal, but there aren't any troops on his doorstep yet. It's entirely possible that Sordnaz's plans will change depending on the terms Eston is given. Half the time, I've got no idea what that guy's thinking, but he has held on this long.

Completely OOC, I think it's just bad timing. I think the player of Jason was away for the weekend. I'm willing to bet you'll get a reply tomorrow. IC, however, it's a total slap in the face to Eston and you should burn... uh... Sint for it. (Did I do that right?)

Imperial Senate,

I am back, but I am too tired to type this. I was referee in karate championship 2013 on Saturday and Sunday and spent over 5 hours in flight. I will start sending letters from tomorrow night.

The Cagilan armies at least have been ordered to withdraw. Be patient.

As to the rest, I'm sure both Darka and BoM are waiting with bated breath to see what terms are offered to Eston. Doubtless both of those realms will be hoping to divine what sort of terms they can come to expect should they too decide to sue for peace.

[jaune]

Yeah, would be nice to hear/see what sort of terms Eston will get. Since CE & Co. has not said a thing about what they want from this war.

All Darka can do now is to wait and prepare. We have had few new nobles and hopefully more to come. But i still think it wont be too long war incase CE & Co sent all they can... it would be horrible army and cant be stopped no matter how much gold Darka has unless they divide it too much :P

Just for looking military graphs... CE 64k, Suville 54+K, Tara 31K, Coria 32K, Strombran 12K, Caergoth 21K....

These are the realms we are pretty sure are looking for knocking our doors, ofcourse Rielston, Minas Leon or even Talerium and Carelia can join...

Lets first mentioned realms can pull out even half of their strenght against us... it would mean over 100K CS army :P

You're assuming that the realms seek a "largest blob possible" strategy sending everything they can all at once. However, I think Kinsey's rotating army strategy is much more effective in this case. A new fresh 30k cs showing up every week is much better than 50-70k at a time with a two or three week break.

[Gabanus family]

On top of that, they won't bring half of that to the field.

[Blue Star]

Or perhaps it will be a huge loot Darka fest!

Last time that was done was before the religion came to the game was it not?

[Indirik]

I don't think Darka has been seriously looted since I started playing, seven years ago.

[Perth]

Forcefully split Darka back into North and South? Would certainly help mix up the dynamics of that bullet proof corner region again.

How about we take every region north of the CE/Tara border and drive them rogue. Every single one except for the cities. Now, Make one duke per city each leader of their own realm. Let the land grab begin. Once a region is taken, you gain claim to that region.

It'll work itself out in a few weeks.

So.. basically Cagilan instituted Hunger Games?

Well kind of. I forgot the part where, each duchy has to send 1 member of its nobility to join CE as a knight each year in order to prevent war. If that knight leaves the realm another must be sent within a week or war commences.

Hey.. I'm all for it. Sounds a lot more exciting than what the current post-war prospects will probably be.  :P
