Grim_

Hey retech what is your hs? (I'm making an alt [and keeping my main account in worlds end[waiting for the damm palisade to decay]])

Me coming to live with you essentially hinges on how long it will take my palisade to decay (for some reason I cannot find the key) or if the battering ram is still around (and functional)

Photoshop is something like 300-500 dollars (can't quite remember),however if you are willing to put on a proxy there is another method of getting CS5 (Yarhh)

That's making the assumption that the warring states do not have defensive forces and/or have extended all of their forces.

The re calculated results of the ambush retech?

Ah sorry for the misunderstanding :oops:

I'm sure that all the other situations where the Hlaupari succeeded is a testamant to the military school. Besides, the terrain wasn't bad until they got close to the enemy soldiers. I did? Group 5? (The archers)

In any rate Retech disregarded an entire group of my soldiers in the attack on the English so you don't have it all too bad.

Yeah I'm not sure why retech disregarded quite a few things in my pm to him (as well as icu's) in which I gave appropriate troop numbers.

Nex need I remind you that my myrmidons are trained in assassination as well as certain...other things.

*RAAARGHH GRIM SMASH*

Retech the offensive army is sent to France (I have a large defensive army as well [just in case you get any ideas]) Under crown prince Aleksandar Asen . 2,000 of the queens guardsmen are used to set up a patrol on the borders of France (on the atlantic border at least) while the rest try to engage the enemies (namely the english) once they are found. (Retech see PM for troop numbers). Half of the queen's guard will be using their long spears to guard the archers against cavalry attack whilst the knights of saint Demitrius and the bulgarian myrmidons flank (as well as the heavy horse archers and the other half of the queen's guard and the men at arms [half of which will be using spears to assist the queens guard against cavalry attacks [the other half will be using swords]] The short ranged myrmidons will charge with the knights of Saint Demitrius and the regular knights (using my updated tactics for charging) and once the melee starts the queen's guardsmen and the men at arms will enter the fray. The long ranged myrmidons and the heavy horse archers will rain merry hell upon the enemy (with the long ranged myrmidons acting as cavalry reinforcements]. Any siege weapons will be used to target enemy siege engines first and then enemy reinforcements/ un-embroiled formations.

(Excellent) The Bulgarian King is understandably upset at the death of one of his sons and demands a weregild of a sum of 6,000,000 gold as compensation.

(Let me just get a good cause first) One of the Bulgar kings illegitimate sons is sent to Brudges (the most annoying, offensive,haughty,stupid and arrogant one that they can find [the bulgar king has many many sons [both legitimate and illegitimate]]) To ask "why do the unwashed peasants rebel from their rightful overlords? and various other things meant to incite hatred towards him (he is told that they will respect his rights as an envoy [which they probably will]). Retech an update on my diplomatic mission to China?

Icu I could help you with this insurrection of yours. (I want to test out the queen's guard and the Knights of Saint Demitrius)

'Cause I'm bored (and too lazy to P.M retech) 1.4 million gold is used to set up a border patrol using a new bulgarian unit!@!@!: The queen's guard (well and with messengers to send word to the main force).

Earth as a rule I am rather paranoid of people passing through my land with armies. Tell you what however; if you allow me to put an armed guard around your forces I would consider letting you bring up to 10,000 forces through at a time (I have a rule of outnumbering the enemy 4+ to one)

Doom and icu could you please use the trade route that does not take you through bulgarian land?

That is assuming you conquer anything at all :P. Also do you even have any diplomats in china?

I wonder.... how effective would it be to set up colonies in south africa?

Yeah because china will be ever so friendly after you essentially invaded one of their neighbors. Also Sri Lanka is not exactly a death trap, getting besieged in a place without adequate supplies is however in pretty much every scenario.

That is obviously assuming that your *ahem* [bleep]ery that has pissed off a fair few european nations would not cause them to turn on you as at a sign of weakness (ie your entire army being wiped out in battle)

That part of North Africa is actually pretty darn rich. And why would Egypt be mad that I took over someone else's land? They are allies with someone else.

Any chance I could get this answered? (The venture that I put 2 million gold into) EDIT: I just found a group that uses the soprano saxophone! (I'm guessing this only means something to me) EDIT: EDIT: I rolled a six sided dice. I got a: 4

Yeah... hey retech for my economic venture would it be a decent idea to roll a six sided dice to decide how many economic points I get out of it? EDIT: Hm it looks like my myrmidons have been relegated to shock troop duty.
