Hrmm... I suppose you're right. Well, they have plenty of chances to recover from this, as long as they manage to keep the capital itself from going rogue. It's not like someone can take advantage of this by an invasion. Terran is probably the only one that would be in a position to do it, but I doubt they could do anything about it right now.

D'hara could invade! Try and type that with a straight face. Even if Luria weren't invading, try and say it with a straight face.

With 3 nobles and no gold, why not? It'd be just like reclaiming a rogue region.

Except that this one was fed and it loves us, as opposed to starving regions that hate us and that don't have lords until the eternal referendums end.

Yea, I know, we coulda handled those better...

Aurvandil, not the Provincia.

Personally I think with the judge being stricter by imposing fines for military disobedience we could see D'hara improving militarily. Invade Aurvandil single handedly, yeah that's pretty laughable but coordinating with Terran to invade, if the fines started getting done, maybe after some strict discipline got done. D'harans still haven't really gotten used to following orders immediately IMO, which sounds stupid but we have been in peace for so long getting to do whatever we want, whenever we want basically that following military orders do get done, just very slowly.

Reason 146 why Terran made a policy of marching off on military expeditions once a year or so.

Of course, it didn't help us that much: only the urgency of this present war has really gotten our armies moving.

Nobles leading troops are nobles not trading.

Reason number 1 why D'Hara has avoided war as much as it could.

Number 2 is: Realms at war usually don't want to trade with you.

Number 3: Realms at war usually don't let your traders pass through to reach other markets.

Oh yea, not to mention that there's no scouting over sea routes and that armies can come from anywhere.

So, back on topic, the Astromoot (I had to! BAHAHA!) just took Paisly.

Epic RP tiems to be had! Alura badly injured, her infantry unit decimated, delirious on the fortress battlements, pre-empting the history-making RP that is about to occur.

Fun, fun, fun! Poked at Florence to RP too, I want some widespread FUN to be had from this siege before we go back to the boring rough&tumble hit-and-runs.
Old (Deleted) Aurea family= Alura (Ruler/Marshal-Terran); Alekhthaeos (Arcaea); Ehndras (Riombara); Vvaros (Arcaea); Magnus (Xerarch-Xavax); Alekhsandr (Marshal/Hero-Fissoa); Decimus (Warrior-Sandalak); Khets'aeïn(Assassin-Riombara)

This account is no longer in use. New account vaguely under wraps.

Where has Aurvandil been? Are they still  recovering from diplomacy issue? And whatever happened to Asylon protecting the neutrality of Provencia?

No drive to help out Provencia so they can preserve their neutrality?

true I guess. Do you know what happened to Asylon helping preserve neutrality ? It seems Aurvandil really does hate me, I don't want them to attack us and they fight, now I wish they would attack and no battle. ( I really need one more prestige point.)
