Retech

I never even had troops in Malaysia. That's my whole issue of having Rocco's troops in Malaysia. Since he's threatening Indonesia, the attack has begun to remove Indian military presence from Malaysia.

Unveiling Project Monarch Butterfly! (Stage one) Four heavily armed supercarriers (big carrier) with 300 fighters and 100 bombers move into the region. These fighters/bombers are some of the most advanced in the world, due to the massive amount of money poured into them. The Japanese battleships open fire on Indian positions in Malaysia and bombers begin their attack. Meanwhile, 500,000 Japanese troops move into Malaysia, being sure to blow up the 4th carrier under construction. The naval blockade is in effect, the ten german submarines helping out as well.

Jen asks where the mountain that the map is pointing to is. She asks the head mage to impart some knowledge in intelligence, since she's feeling rather dumb lately.

Well I still don't want a large military presence in Malaysia. So either get your people out of there (army people), or prepare to be invaded.

Jen returns to the Ivory tower and shows the head mage the map. She asks "what can I do?"

Japan sends a telegram to the UN, asking if it would be okay to remove the Indian military from Malaysia, while still leaving Malaysia as a sovereign state with its own choice on the matter. (What does the UN say?)

Jen tries to create a semi-large mirror out of ice. If she succeeds, then she walks up the mountain and uses it as a shield to show the hermit his reflection...maybe doing something? Then she tries to ask him again if there is anything he could teach her, for the hardships she encountered getting there.

Japan says that any Indian troops close to its aura of defence would be terrible for its defences. It doesn't mind an Indian state, but it is strongly adverse to Indian military involvement. It also notes the massive attack by China on Malaysia because of the former installation of Indian troops, and that Malaysia has much more to lose from having Indian troops on site, than not having Indian troops. Japan notes that it has bases right next to Malaysia, making an attack much easier than India's defence, which would have to be flown in on Strato-jet, which are somehow superior to everyone elses despite the fact that Switzerland doesn't have much of a budget.

Japan asks Russia if it would intervene if Japan moved to remove Indian military influences from Malaysia, leaving Malaysia as an Indian protectorate.

There is a hermit that lives on top of this mountain. I think he/she is skilled in the ways of magicks, so that's why the Ivory mages sent Jen. Not sure though. --- Jen slowly climbs the mountain and if she sees the hermit, she respectfully bows and asks for knowledge, specifically ice magicks.

Japan replies that any efforts to remove the blockade will utterly fail, because Japan has a known navy at least twice as large as the Indian navy. Japan brings part of its newly created fleet and 150,000 soldiers ready to attack, if Indian troops do not leave Malaysia.

Jen reads the book again, since she doesn't remember any of it. (Yaya, another 1.6) Afterwards, she travels to the mountaintop with the hermit. (No more encounters remaining)

Are you building them with Indian troops? I had already blockaded the area all around Malaysia from military equipment and Indian troops, which was still effective from the previous incident.

I had intelligence before + 1.6 intelligence. It can't be less than 1.6 though.

There you go.

If I can find the quote for the intelligence, will you give my ice magic points back?

Sorry Ross, a nope is a nope. Indonesia is a big part of my plans for the coming few years, and one of my primary goals. Of course, if India tried to go through Asia, there's a little blocker called China there. :D

Well I guess I have no choice then. Did you account for the intelligence which I got from reading that book? Or was that the 1.3. If there wasn't that, how bout my level in healing magic?

Well if you look at the map, he can't really go through the South pacific without passing Indonesia. He'd have to go all the way around and attack Japan, which is also defended by the same defences. Not to mention all my algae growing stuff is in Indonesia. :P

Take it out of the random 4 levels of experience that Archi said I had. Anyways, any chance you could stop editing too much? I thought there were only 3 brigands left that weren't unfrozen. :( Jen returns to the area, careful to not get close to the Brigands. If she sees them, she attempts to cast from afar (freezing and ice shards).

Oh, well tensions will cool when both of us realize that we aren't going to attack each other. Besides, if he does attack me, then I'll have my defensive line. :D -------- Never can be too sure about Rocco over there. :)

Sorry about that Archi. I have a confusing roundabout way of speaking. So could you please change gold reserves to 975 tonnes plox? Oh, and sorry for accusing you of trying to over moderate. :P

Of course they're plenty close. I've already sunken my entire budget surplus for two years into it, and created millions of jobs. So there's no tension. :P Not to mention that they feel much more secure with the big defences I put in place.

Sorry Ross. My main problem with it is that I was using it as a shield, and you don't share the same foreign policy as me. So say if someone attacked me, you wouldn't necessarily use the defensive wall to block them, because you might be destroyed. So I would be losing a valuable defence. ------- Archi, I meant that I had over 975, and that I was rounding it down to 975 to do the action listed.

Do you know the ice magic level btw? ---- Jen auto-fires more ice shards, and tries to freeze the other three. Then when they come into close combat, she tries to bludgeon them with her polemace, attempting to use her enchanted shield to block. Luckily for her, she has her ice-plate armor.
