Anagaea: An Era of Empires

[Plethora]

Avalonian far side expedition brings back plenty of treasures that have been traded away for everything from glass beads to ironmongery. The expedition is considered a great success, and will continue as planned.

Little to report in mainland Avalonia. Currnet Supreme Leader turned thirty yesterday. General well being throughout the nation.

Anyone still half active besides me, Kochie, and Swat? If not, I think I might take over another nation or do something to upset things. Peace gets boring when there's nothing to temper it.

[Ad Bot]

[SWAT One]

Still active.

[Plethora]

Avalonian spies assassinate the leader of Rossiya Imperii.
Avalonian subversives burn the capitol of Rossiya Imperii.

Avalonian soldiers rally, preparing for a counterattack.

[SWAT One]

Erinaum annexes the gigantic land of former Aosania.

Current Erinamian Population:  3,002,873.

Erinaum sends troops to aid Avalonia.

[Mikoyan]

Spies are killed, fire is put out. All citizens are ordered to move into Alois or the land between us. Aloisian and Imperiian soldiers guard both of the borders with mass.

[Tomcat]

Slainte sends troops to pillage Avalonia, with Slainte's massive army of 1 million
The remaining 1.5 million soldiers are sent to guard the border between Erinaum and Slainte.

[Tomcat]

Bump.

[SWAT One]

The Erinamian soldiers on the great wall of Erinaum fire on the Slaintean and Imperiian soldiers with crossbows.  The EE push back the Slaintean and Imperiian forces 5 miles into Slainte and destroy any military implacements.  The border is controlled by Erinaum.  Erinamian war vessels form blockades along Slaintean and Rossiya Imperii and any other warring states.  All merchant vessels will be searched.  Erinamian civilians are ordered out of the Asoanan region.  60,000 soldiers move into Erinaum's gold mining camp to secure the gold and provide a path to the sea to ship it back to Erinaum.  Avalonia is permitted to mine still if they are interested.

Also, since Slainte's population is only 3.5 million, it's quite unrealistic that their military is over 700,000.
Erinaum's population is only ~3,300,000 with a military of ~685,000.  Please downsize your military or update your population status.  And don't bother with "hurr durr population now 5 million!!!".  No.

[Tomcat]

Or maybe you could've read back when I declared standard military training for most of the population.
Slainte responds with the remaining 1.5 million troops to push back, destroying Erinaum's control of the border and flooding en masse into his nation.

[Mikoyan]

Aloisian troops are sent to double the line guarding Avalonia. 300,000 of Rossiya Imperii's finest troops recieve the order to begin pushing into Erinaum.

[Plethora]

The barbarians which have been roused by Avalonia, as in past, flood into Slainte, burning everything to the ground. My usual wartime growth. around 6.5 million citizens live in Avalonia itself, with many more in varyting locations around the world. 40% fo the population of Avalonia itself is part of the army, and 95% of Avalonian citizens have been trained fo fight, women not being excluded from training.

The far side expedition has little to report.

Rossiya Imperii will be spared the brunt of the onslaught for now, since it was once the ally of Avalonia. Did I do a good job of revitalizing this or what? :D

[SWAT One]

One of every three civilians are equipped with fire bombs made with Åkkáłé¡.  The Erinamian General army of 550,000 pushes from the North of Slainte, pushing south into the country, creating a trail of distruction as they take through the undefended part of the country.  The Erinamian war vessels fire on Slaintean fortifications on the sea.  The cities are raided and pillaged, then burned to the ground.  Several thousand Slaintean citizens are taken as slaves.  They have pushed into the former Nexian territories and seized 80 miles of land in 1 month.  The remaining 50,000 EE line up along the southern front in the forests, where their combat skills are superior.  They are equipped with Self Delete fire bombs if captured.

Erinaum calls on Avalonia for help.

The border wall is 23 feet thick.  Its openings are filled with concrete to slow the advance.  I doubt you could break through that easily.

[Plethora]

While we're discussing realisticness, I doubt that Rossiya Imperii's armed forces would rally that quickly ater the death of the ruler of an absolute monarchy, the death of the man who commands trade, military, laws, taxes, everything.

The barbarians under the command of Avalonian generals make their way into Slainte wreaking havoc as they go. Although normally such practices would be condamned by Avalonain generals, since the barbarians have made it their custom to take no prisoners, the political officers have decided it best to give them free reign.

Farms are burned, wells are poisoned, buildings razed. No captives to speak of. Little else to report.

For Slainte to assail Avalonia itself is a foolish move. I've been fortifying my borders almost since day one. The All-Enclosing-Wall was not even penetrated by the legions of Caprica. Any Slaintean soldiers that approach would be hampered by barbarian resistance, as Avalonia has lined their pockets with gold; militant resistance, as my army is great; and hostile terrain, no bare plains up there.

[SWAT One]

Slainte best surrender.  It is quickly losing territory and is practically crippled.  Avalonian and Erinamian causes are well-funded.

Avalonia, tell the barbarians to leave the Erinamian forces alone.  I don't want them to accidentally attack us.  Support from them is appreciated.

[Mikoyan]

You really think a King would be stupid enough as to not bear a royal heir earlier on?
