  • Pharoah departs from Memphis for the next three days, so we can't afford to wait any longer for word back from our emissaries.

    From what I understand of that Civ game of yours, it's all about launching one's own spaceship before the others do. So this is no big news after all: my father just beat you all to the stars once more. - Philippe Baise

    • Not much to report this turn... spotted a few Minoans at work. A few Bab skirmishers have wandered over the border. They are not really causing much trouble, but our gnomes don't seem to like it.

        Indeed this is a nice way how to inform that a Persian skirmisher has entered into radius of Bab city Zariqum.
        The usual Sinbad's approach to borders creation ("I decided this is Persia. Howgh.") doesn't meet with a sympathy in Babylon. We must repeat the Bab-Pers western borders weren't established yet. And we don't think it was a Babylonian fault.

        Agade's militia reports the Egyptian skirmishers didn't follow our appeal to leave the District and are trying to slip towards Agade. Citizens of Agade are indignant and Babylonian State Department enters an official protest.

          Yes, the omnipotent power of a single skirmisher has the entire Babylonian Empire all a-tremble. *Yawn*

          • It appears Babylonian skirmishers are even more omnipotent than Egyptian ones.
            We are reminding an Egyptian protest in 2580: "The peaceful Babylonians have now marched units within 2 squares of Tell Hariri".

            • Babylonian chroniclers called my attention to a recent case of a Bab horseman near Mari.
              Indeed, you can notice interesting differences:
              • 2560
              • Babylonian horseman was invited to Mari
              • he came and Babylon announced his visit
              • horseman was asked to leave
              • so he left immediately
              (Pharaoh didn't yawn at all but intimidated by an Egyptian magician)
              • 2490
              • Egyptian skirmisher wasn't invited to Agade
              • he came on the quiet
              • he was asked to leave
              • but he stays and tries to get closer to the city
              (Pharaoh yawns)

                  As usual, the Great Deceiver of the South has omitted a key detail - namely that Babylon and the whole world new of the existence of BOTH Mari and Tel Hariri. Therefore he knowingly and provocatively marched into lands that he knew were not his.

                  In the case of Agade, an Egyptian skirmisher was wandering through the empty deserts of the south and bumped into a Babylonian skirmisher who alleged that there was a nearby Babylonian city. Having failed to produce evidence and given the Babylonian proclivity for lies and paranoia, this claim was immediately treated as just one more falsehood in a vast and endless tapestry of deceit.

                  • If only all the desert "near" Agade wasn't full of signs "District Agade"...

                    Anyway The Immo admires Pharaoh's civilized diplomatic language.
