That battle was huge.

140 nobles involved? Pretty sweet.

Reminded me of the old battles between Abington and CE.

Reading the YouTube comments for that song gave me several diseases, none of which are pleasant.

YouTube comments were dumb?

On the plus side the Suville-Carelian conflict is providing some arguing between CE and Tara as Tara supports Carelia, while CE supports Suville.

Must be nice to fight proxy wars. Oh the opulence!

It's not a proxy war if no one actually gets hurt. It's more like a Pokemon battle between civilized gentlemen. There is a lot of posturing, and everyone goes drinking together afterwards.

Well, one person mentioned something about how the Turks conquered Constantinople (I am unsure what this has to do with the song, but I admit to being unfamiliar with the band) which made several other people comment about how the Turks didn't really conquer it, it was the European mercenaries the Turks had hired. Then people started calling each other names, and then I felt ill and was diagnosed with the aforementioned diseases.

A 2K CS advantage for the attackers and they get blown away by the defenders in round one. Let's see about round two! (If the CE is ready for another ass whipping).

I have to do all my trash talking here since I got wounded.  :(

So, you're part of the 10kcs of slackers that didn't make it in time for the first battle, eh?

Not I just came back from Cagil after having most of my unit destroyed by the first battle and then the Makarians in Alaise. It seems my refit took just one turn tooooo long.

Someone just stabbed Cyrilos, and presumably claimed the gigantic bounty.

Congrats, whoever you are (I'm guessing the Rieleston infil– Elroy Anderbliss methinks?)

Can't trust the Anderbliss family. Treacherous people they are.
