Let us make friends not war!

[theViking]

As I see it we would be much better off making friends with our neighbors and giving them gifts than making another war.
Let us expand a lot more first (Uberisland) and get strong with good friends, then pick our target.

Strange talk from a Viking? Not realy

I rather think we should attack France now before they become stronger and upgrade their garrisons to pikemen. IMHO we should take a French city or two, then sign a treaty, then start expanding and building.

[GoodFella]

He talks of peace? KILL HIM!

[Inverse Icarus]

a viking that wants peace? with the FRENCH?

HAHAHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHHA.

we cannot win this game through peace. especially with our current suitation.

By taking France we not only get Wines, (more) Iron good land, and cities, but also an easily defended border. We'll be almost surrounded by mountain ranges, the only exceptions being Boston (which we will soon take), a single Greek city in the Dragon's Teeth, and Munich.

[Kuciwalker]

Allow me make a correction: actually, we will have several Greek cities to the north of our French conquests, but we will have rivers to defend most of it. I was doing my previous post from memory, and it's been a while since I looked at that part of the world.

[OPD]

Yeah lets make friends with nations who threaten and demand maps from us.

Even the French who are one of the most peace loving nations have tried to blackmail us.

And so Joan will live to regret and we shall learn to drink wine.

[Epistax]

For the record, vikings only attacked churched up areas with many warriors. Unlike popular belief, they never raided defenseless areas.

Yes, I agree, we need to expand first. However, for our cities to grow without rioting, we need luxuries. And to get luxuries, we need to war (or spend even more time building roads). Therefore, to expand, we need to war.
Interesting paradox, isn't it?

[Sheik]

We could give them gifts or we could not give them gifts and instead take everything they have. I personally am for option number two.

[Verto]

Where's the Gestapo to silence that man?

Wipe them out...all of them.

After the French war, I also think we should stop being barbaric folk from the jungle, who use technollogy only to forge weapon. We should show the world we'll be the most enlightened people it'll ever know !
(after the French war of course. until then, let blood and Iron do the talking ! )

[Ninot]

Awww... but i dont wanna be the most barbaric president of the ancient times
