Great Dwilight War:Astrum defeats Asylon and Farronite forces.

[Arrakis]

Light of the Maddening Medugnatos changed class to warrior and is probably going to be elected Regent of Corsanctum...

I can't help but notice that Brance did so too. Changing classes out of convenience was always something I frowned upon. Changing to warrior class after a lifetime of preaching and 'using-your-words-as-your-profession' does seem a bit out of place.

[Stabbity]

The Light and Luminary of the Maddening are expected to change class to warrior in times of crusade.

[Sacha]

You gunna git Brance'd son!

[Indirik]

Brance told the church that we sould fight to defend his realm, and that they could replace him as Luminary, if they wanted. But as Stabbity says, Light and Luminary of Maddening are expected to fight.

[Zakilevo]

Well when words aren't enough, you have to pick up your sword

[Indirik]

Words only work when the other person is willing to be convinced. When they have no intention of coming to an amicable arrangement, no matter what you say, then talking is useless.

[Frostwood]

Can you please quit with this? Where a realm's army is, or whether or not it is mobilizing quickly is important info IG that shouldn't be said on the forums for everyone to know.

I didn't mention regions, and Niselurians are not really the subtle type.  Astrum and others know that we are there as conducting a takeover puts a big neon light above the army in question.  I haven't shared any tactical information, as where Astrum is moving and stuff like that.

Apparently we even gave them a week warning.  The general of Astrum is either crazy or a mad genius.  We will find out soon.

What do you want us to do, construct towers with red lights on top to announce our presence?

[Glaumring the Fox]

And they will know you by the trail of the dead...

Forgive me for not having read the 15 pages, but dividing this war into two sides is an incredible oversimplification. This isn't one war, this is multiple wars going on simultaneously.

Niselur, Asylon, and Farronite Republic against Astrum
Phantaria against Terran
Libero Empire and Luria Nova against Morek
D'Hara and Barca against Saffalore
Grand Duchy of Fissoa against Aurvandil

Most of these wars complement each other in some way, but many actors have interests on apparently conflicting sides of other ongoing conflicts.

The continent is at war, but it'd be inappropriate to call it a continental war, because of the plural nature of the conflicts at hand.

There is truth here.

Many overlapping, shared, and separate goals by all involved.

Anyone care to take a stab at what the root cause of this war is?

[Penchant]

Anyone care to take a stab at what the root cause of this war is?

More than one could be said. For instance if SA had gone to war more often, FR would be a theocracy, Libero possibly something done, Niselur gave back to Turin, etc most of the enemies would not be here. So being under eager for war/crusade could be called a root cause, its just not what you are looking for I am rather sure.
