Did it work? (i can't tell)

The Bloody Baro · July 4, 2002, 15:21

Okay I'm guessing Skilord so correct me if I'm wrong.

Red=Romans
Light Pink=Carthage
Light Blue=Macedonia
Greeen= Sparta
Dirt Green= Athens

Question whos Brown and Dark Pink?

SKILORD · July 4, 2002, 15:26

Brown = Barbarians

dark Pink is Persia.

SKILORD · July 4, 2002, 15:30

Wait Sparta was to the south i thought it should be:

Brown = Barbarians
Red = Rome
Light Blue = Macedonia
Purple = Carthage
Pink = Persia
Light Green = Athens
Dirt green = Sparta

The Bloody Baro · July 4, 2002, 15:37

No cause I remeber in a book saying that Sparta envied athens island colonies.

Giovanni Wine · July 4, 2002, 18:53

Sparta in in the South while Athens in the north-center of Greece.

Saluti

SKILORD · July 4, 2002, 19:00

score! i knew they were to the south.

How is the Map Giovanni?

Giovanni Wine · July 4, 2002, 19:34

Everything looks good.
Beside Greece which is a little bit messed up.

Athens start even more on the south.
(And should get a few colonies in Turkey to be really picky)
You can always make the Pelepponesus a bit larger.

Rome didn't really ever had Scotland and Ireland... but it is ok like that.

If you want I can make those corrections for you:

The Bloody Baro · July 4, 2002, 21:20

Don't care.

jdd2007 · July 5, 2002, 10:22

well lets get started then. the greek alliance masses ships and soldiers for a sea operation

jdd2007 · July 5, 2002, 22:20

cmon, people, lets go

The Bloody Baro · July 6, 2002, 08:57

Rome begins massive fortification construction in and around cities
Time until completion= 5months/ 5days

((OOC: Turns are 1 month game time= 1 day real time))

SKILORD · July 6, 2002, 11:36

Macedonian Horsemen, swordsmen and phalanxes are loading into our fleet, and preparing

The Bloody Baro · July 6, 2002, 12:04

Rome would like to know the destination of the Athens, and Macedonians fleet. If you are heading to Carthage I would like to so as I can assist.

jdd2007 · July 6, 2002, 12:23

You may do so by keeping the northern barbarians at bay, and staying out of our way...

athenian troops march onto transports

Metaliturtle · July 6, 2002, 19:55

Spartan troops are now on the ships as well, their presence makes the Macedonian and Athenian troops work harder, as the spartans are much more disciplined.

SKILORD · July 6, 2002, 20:13

Yes Macedon is quite afraid that the barbarians to the north will take advantage of the lower numbers of troops and offers rome a millitary alliance against them and to begin working on a joint attack plan.

Metaliturtle · July 8, 2002, 14:22

Is Rome in agreement with this plan?

((OOC: is anyone alive?))

SKILORD · July 8, 2002, 16:43

The Macedonian leader is.

unscratchedfoot · July 8, 2002, 22:42

Persia masses 50% of its army on the border of Sparta and requests meetings with roman and carthage heads of states. The remaining units are spread between all the coastal cities with a one regiment kept in each interior city. Cities on Spartas border and along the coast build walls if they haven't already. Other cities start to build markets and libraries where not built yet.
((OOC: is there a player for carthage? I think we better get one before continuing))

The Bloody Baro · July 8, 2002, 23:37

The Romans deny the persians request. 50% of troops are sent to the island of Sicily for reasons not to be released.

Metaliturtle · July 9, 2002, 10:12

What is Romes answer to the Greek Request?

The Bloody Baro · July 9, 2002, 10:21

Yes to the Greek request. A small Roman raiding party goes into the Barbarian North. The Troops at Sicily are to be loaded up into their transports and are sailing east.

Metaliturtle · July 9, 2002, 10:24

SKILORD, I'll let you lead the offensive.

jdd2007 · July 9, 2002, 12:23

the greek fleet, now complete, sets sail. several thousand athenian soldiers march through sparta toward persia. athenian emissaries sprint to sparta and macedonia, requesting that most of the greeks not in the fleet fight, but not invade, persia. however, nothing official has gone between athens and persia.

unscratchedfoot · July 9, 2002, 13:12

Persian workers, protected by the massed soldiers, build fortifications on the land connecting to the spartan and greek territory as a precaution. The number of troops massed on the border is reduced to one third and the rest are moved down along the coast to counter the impending roman incursion.

Xerses addresses the mobs of citizens assembled by law to hear his speech.
"Kind and peace-loving persian people, the romans have rejected our hand of friendship and have even turned away our ambassador. Their refusal to even engage in talks with us is the ultimate insult. To add to this, they immediately assembled troops and their navy, the same ones who oppress the innocent Gauls and Germanic peoples, near Sicily and are headed towards the peaceful land of Persia. This is Rome's way of reacting to friendship. What do the people say?"

"Kill roman! Kill roman! Kill roman! Kill....."

"I must caution you that our navy is in no condition to take on the combined navies of Greece, Macedonia, Sparta and Rome who seem to be allied against our nation."

"Kill roman! Kill roman! Kill..."

"And what of these other countries who ally with the roman bullies?"

"Kill roman! Kill roman! Kill..."

Xerses sends ambassadors to meet with Sparta and Greece with the intention of avoiding a multiple front war.

OCC: really now, we NEED a leader for Carthage.

High Lord J · July 9, 2002, 21:30

good luck look foward to this

Metaliturtle · July 9, 2002, 21:46

High Lord, you should be Carthage

SKILORD · July 10, 2002, 12:12

The Macedonian horsemen, lead by their magnificent general Alexander have landed and captured a few towns by surprise.

But wait where did they land?

(Metaliturtle; awful cruel of you to have me! who worked the diplomacy to get him off our backs be the first to strike)

Italia and Northern Iberia have been invaded! now we shall see how the Caesers stand against greek brilliance! The Spartan and Athenian armies will (had better) follow us.

To Persia:
You see, we are against rome as well, we had them attack the barbarians to divert troops from the front we were opening if you'd like to join us (They've annoyed the barbarians now and cannot recall their northern forces at the risk of being overrunn) feel free to.

SKILORD · July 10, 2002, 12:19

the Italia Landing force is much smaller than the Iberian Liberation Army, which is working with a group of rebels to push the roman borders back.
