Kassiopeia · May 12, 2002, 13:15

Thanks for the summary!

Clearer this way. Greater Finland could annex Norway to it's western areas unless someone objects. If someone of my trusty governors desires to add it to their province, do tell.

History Guy · May 12, 2002, 13:16

Eastern Europe is now claimed! Yeee-haw for Vlad History Guy!

History Guy · May 12, 2002, 13:18

So, let's see, King Vlad History Guy is lord of all his surveys, eh? The capital: the new city of Historiagoy.

Kassiopeia · May 12, 2002, 13:20

1. History Guy, there's this big nation called Finland at your Western border. Wanna for a pact of sorts?

2. Ranskaldan; why not just edit the first post?

History Guy · May 12, 2002, 13:22

Well, Kassiopeia, that might just be in order. Pop right down to Historiagoy and I'll sign the darned thing right here on this wooden table in the Royal Palace. My secretary, Pigtree, will provide the pens.

ranskaldan · May 12, 2002, 13:25

Kass: it'll be cool to have a "history" of sorts, meaning you can go back and see how things were around post 25.

edit: So, was that a pact, or a vassalage agreement?

Kassiopeia · May 12, 2002, 13:37

A Pact. HG will probably function better without me breathing down his neck and flashing around with my whip.
Call it... "The Pact of All Pacts". Everyone who wants to support Finland can join in it, without becoming a vassal.

Ari Rahikkala · May 12, 2002, 13:54

Allright, I'll try it again.

Massive dolphin armies are seen appearing everywhere on Northern Atlantic. The governments of all nearby countries are contacted to gain their recognisation of the Duchy of Straylight and to find protection pacts for their shipping lines

.

ranskaldan · May 12, 2002, 13:57

Seriously?!
hmmm.... now that's a twist.

to contain further Finnish aggression, I shall annex all of Indochina.

Of course I'm serious.

I don't think people would want to have their ships sunken by attackers that don't leave any traces

...

Natan · May 12, 2002, 14:00

I'm grabbing any available parts of the middle east and the Balkans.

ranskaldan · May 12, 2002, 14:07

Natan;
i don't think there's any left. Would you settle for West Africa instead, and join the glorious Anti-Finland alliance?

Bosh · May 12, 2002, 14:09

Is Surinam open?

ranskaldan · May 12, 2002, 14:16

No, it belongs to ME.

Unless you wish to become the Governor of the Province of Surinam.

Mercator · May 12, 2002, 14:42

How about becoming part of the glorious Finnish Empire, and govern Afghanistan and Turkmenistan (that's the closest to the ME you can get). With our current empire, some more ME territory in the near future isn't entirely unthinkable ...

In the mean time, the Greater Mongolian Navy has reached the remote Western European river delta of Greater Holland. It is promptly renamed to Antwerp, and becomes and independent state allied to Greater Finland.

orange · May 12, 2002, 14:45

what the hell?

ranskaldan · May 12, 2002, 14:47

Orange: Ask Boris.
Or better yet, read what he posted in the other thread.

Quote:

*NEWS*

In a stunning, lightning sneak attack, tank divisions of Godunova (NOTE to ranskaldan, there's no "i"), poured into MOZAMBIQUE, where the unenlightened despot Orange had ben languishing away and not responding to anything or anyone. Harumpf.

So, the tanks roll over the countryside, an in a matter of hours, the nation falls to Godunova's superior might. Upon seizing the capital, the Godunovan forces found Orange, playing a computer game. He was summarily decapitated and his body dragged through the streets by a team of mules.

*Godunovan Flag Rises over Mozambique*

Mercator: !? So are you the ruler of Greater Mongolia or of "Antwerp"?

History Guy · May 12, 2002, 14:56

Well, there we have it. The Pact of All Pacts was signed at 3 o'clock this afternoon. Those who weren't eating watercress sandwiches where munching on Eastern Europe's famous Turkey Shish-ka-bob. Despite a few assasination attempts from my happy citizens, the event went smoothly. No dolphin armies were seen anywhere around East Europe...however, all along the Bosphorus huge armies are amassing, each soldier screaming in unison one name: "Vlad Guy History! Errr...Vlad History Guy!!"

Mercator · May 12, 2002, 14:59

Mercator: !? So are you the ruler of Greater Mongolia or of "Antwerp"?

Both of course!

I'm the governor of Greater Mongolia and the interim despot of Antwerp.

General Ludd · May 12, 2002, 15:00

I claim Uganda in the name of Savannahland.

History Guy · May 12, 2002, 15:05

Mercator-- Hmmm...maybe you could held smuggle some arms over to the growing 'Empire of East Europe'...with it's HQ in Historiagoy? We'd love to export to you some cheap tall, sharp pieces of timber, or perhaps maybe olive oil, or rocks, or something!

It might take a moment to understand. But just hop in. The rules are somewhat similar to those of Mornington Crescent

Shi Huangdi · May 12, 2002, 15:16

You guys do know you have your own seperate forum for this, right? You have the stories&Diplomacy first.

Mercator · May 12, 2002, 15:17

How about we attack Germany from both East and West. Backed up by Greater Finland that shouldn't be too much of a problem. I'd be willing to give up Antwerp (and newly conquered Germany) and add it to your glorious Empire.

ranskaldan · May 12, 2002, 15:24

LightEning: Rules? What rules? There are rules for this?

Shi Huangdi: Nah.... I think this is far too insane to belong in THAT.

Kaladar troops have invaded the Levant. After early victories, they are now moving up the Nile and along the Mediterranean coast.

History Guy · May 12, 2002, 15:35

General Mercator:

This is an excellent suggestion, preparations must be made! Feasting! Drinking! The lot! As long as Kassiopeia gives his blessing on our invasion, I'm in...Just don't tell the Germans that! Our glorious empires shall prosper! Haaah haaah haaah!

Az · May 12, 2002, 15:35

The Quito and the Honolulu pacts are obsolete in this world of global confrontation. And as the Honolulu pact signatories accepted me as an ally, I propose the signing of the Lima Pact, that would consider the creation of the SPA - the South Pacific alliance, covering all nations on this side of the planet, opposed the evil finnish hegemony.
