And so I ask you my citizens and nobles, who among you will travel this great mountain range to reign havock to these merciless maniacs? Who will help me avenge our beloved general's death? Who has the courage to stand in the face of adversity. Then let us go!

New Shanghi Town Meeting

Yes, the rumors of schirmishers on our border are true. However, behind these city walls we have nothing to fear from them. They are only capable of field tactics and no nothing of siege work that we know of. A unit of Cho Ku Nos has gone out and taken half the group on and eradicated them. I repeat, you have nothing to fear.

Sea Date 12.35.1003

We continued sailing south along the coastline to discover a hospitable city site when we came upon a settlement with crude harbor capabilities. We approached and dropped anchor. It seems the people, who loved ships, were extatic about our huge junks, and immediately offered the service of their city to the great Emperor overseas. We garrissoned some marines in the city for they feared that some of their neighbors might not like their taking to our side.

And of course the map

Smaug · July 6, 2002, 10:19

This scenario is good because of how quickly you can get through your turns. This is how pbem should be played.

Yes and no.
It's considered good form to discuss treaties with the human player before signing them. However, in this case I'm happy to have a peace treaty with you, so it's not a problem

I'll play & post in a few hours

Case · July 6, 2002, 23:57

Yet more natives slaughtered

Henrik · July 7, 2002, 03:17

Oh and as it seems I forgot to post about it in this thread:

I'll be going away on friday, and I'll be away for one week.
Do you want me to get a sub or should we put the game on hold?

Ship Log of the Tormentor

Sea Date 1.23.1005

We left behind the Morning Rider in Chico port. Captain Yang Tzo pushed us further despite our running low on provisions. He said he had gut feeling of another settlement further down the coastline.

Sure enough, a harbor village was spotted and we hailed them as we approached. However we were met with a hail of spears. Usually Tzo would wait for reinforcements, but being low on supplies, he sallied forth and attacked the provincials with all our might. We won the day and filled our stock. Our marines took garrison and reinforcemnts were levied from the locals that were considered trustworthy. We shall wait for the Morning Rider before we sail on.

St Leo · July 8, 2002, 17:32
