albiton offers atensia puppet status

Conservatia's revenge.

Avalonian merchants begin shipping the type of gear resistance fighters might use (lighter armor, shorter bows, knives, &c.) to Atensia, but don't sell it quite yet seeing as there'll probably be a much larger market for it soon.

For goodness sake man, use them phalanxes or something, or at least make better use of that cavalry.

Avalonia will house Atensia's leadership (for now) should they choose exile over capture.

Erinaum offers Tsekēnaum to peacefully become a province of Erinaum.  The army is sent to the Erinamese border for leverage; should Tsekēnaum refuse, the army of 12,000 will steamroll into Tsekēnaum.

Full citizenship is granted to all Zēnians and Bēlänese.

1. How bad are we losing.
2. Will we ever make a comback in realistic terms.
3. Terms of puppet status.
4. Long term effects of puppet status.

swat I have a feeling you just put those three countries next to you in order to gain more land and population.

whatya think I was doing with those tower shields silly.

[Plethora]

a growing power uniting together would be wise to secure a safe rule, and safe neighbors and allies.

should Tsekēnaum refuse, the army of 12,000 will steamroll into Tsekēnaum.

Oh the irony.  Avalonia sends balloons to the moon with a note telling her that her followers are a bunch of bloodthirsty loons.

swat I have a feeling you just put those four three countries next to you in order to gain more land and population.

Seconded.

It is found that Avalonian citizens have been migrating to that peninsula in the Sea of Ormica (I'm the only person to know it exists so it's official I think) for quite a while, and that a fair bit of the population along the northern coast and the sliver of land connecting it to the mainland are ethnic Avalonians and speak the tongue of the fatherland.  This was only discovered recently as Avalonian expeditions into the Sea have been limited following the general lack of peoples interested in trade along its coasts.

Avalonia sends gifts of iron axes and helmets, A really nice Ormican flag, and silver statues of wolves about a foot tall to the Ormican leadership, including the sons of the current chief with focus on the eldest.

[SWAT One]

Lowered to 10,500.

I absorbed all Zēnian military assets, and Erinamese assets grew naturally.  All populations on Bēlänia and Zēnia as well were not updated in a long time.

At least as long as Zïtdist influence exists, there will still be enmity.

^- Band aid.

I think Swat's real complaint is the same one people leveled against me in Nations at War, that the guy running the show skewed things in his favor; you're not running things exactly, but you are a moderator.  Looking back I can't pretend I didn't (even though I thought I was being fair, and I was trying to), and looking here I think I can see it too.  The very existence of those NPC nations, as Swat sees it (I think that's what he means, and I at least see it this way) was for you to take them over, whereas the NPCs act as an expansion blocker for everyone else (especially since they surround everyone else and where there were easier, unclaimed, areas for you to conquer you went for the jugular of your neighbor who was specifically engineered as Erinaum's twin).

Just my thoughts.  Could be otherwise, and I hope it is.

[SWAT One]

Both Erinaum and Bēlänia were competing for the favor of Zēnia.  My luck at getting access to a lot of gold allowed me to leverage Zēnia a bit more to the point where a political marriage was possible.  Mikoyan created the gold event and approved the political marriage.  The truth is Zēnia is the credit to Erinaum's victory.

Even still, if populations were truly adjusted, Tsekēnaum would be ridiculously huge.  Erinaum's veterans vs Tsekēnaum's numbers would actually make for a fair match.  I even requested that Miko preside over these events.

In the spirit of fairness, I'd like you to moderate over the events between Tsekēnaum and Erinaum.

Starting here.

Furthermore, it seems that I am taking a more active role in the RP concerning NPCs.  With the timescale being so high, my pace seems fast, but it's really slow.

In response to Swat, there were Ezbataen races in Anagaea I.  These were them, but they weren't worth mentioning 1) because there was a volcano eruption fiasco that allowed their quick defeat, and 2) they were slaughtered, rather than absorbed.

[Plethora]

In all truth it's not my place to criticize where I haven't done much better with power, and by rights I ought to have gone about this via pm to show due respect to you as a moderator - the failure of which i apologize for.  However let it be noted that I still view it as suspicious  that you have your own NPCs designed around your permanent RP culture where nobody else had such sway over their neighbors, and that you presided over your own blitzkrieg military conquests.  To my regret I am the prophet of doom here.  I will make no more mention of this.

Now that that's out of the way...

Avalonian ships continue with their travels, goods continue to circulate, and the people are fairly happy.  upon the discovery of Avalonians in the Sea of Ormica, greater travel between the lands arises; family branches thought to be extinct are found, trade increases, and the people of the peninsula are given a sense of the fatherland.

[SWAT One]

Thank you.  I wish you well in your conquests as well.

[Swat 3]

How I see it in a sense, but not exactly it. The only main thing I see is that Albiton was put next to me for one purpose.

Like seriously, nothing I did provoked them.

(written before swats response)

[SWAT One]

I did not organize any of the NPCs except for the Ezbataen NPCs.

I am talking about the general situation.

[SWAT One]

I am talking about the general situation.

Okay.  If you could please continue in PMs, that'd be great.

[Swat 3]

freedom of speech
Okay.

Atenisia calls for a ceasefire so representatives from both sides may discuss about the Albiton offer and its terms.

still waiting for my other questions to be answered.
