The Civ Files: Neu Demogyptica

[BigFurryMonster]

Trying to re-open communications with ND. Sent this to Borc:

Hello Borc!

Let me introduce myself: I am BigFurryMonster of Lux Invicta and have just been appointed as Ambassador to your Civilization. I understand that there has been tension between our civs. It is my wish to decrease this tension. I hope you feel the same.

What can we do? We tried to work out a border agreement before. Maybe that is where we should start. Things are getting more clear now, and we already have a pair of twin cities that can be the start of the border.

What's more? Ah yes - trade. Our civ has been quite successful in trading with others - maybe you would like to join at the trade table?

I sent this message to you, not knowing whether you are the right person to talk to. If you're not, would you be so kind to forward this message to the person who is? Thanks.

I hope to hear from you soon!

BFM
Minister of Trade of Lux Invicta

No response?

Was your PM box full maybe?

In other related news, I was discussing the NDE situation with Togas and E_T of Roleplay last night, and they suggested that they could act as mediators in order to prevent war. This could work for us, so we could prepare to destroy them...

[BigFurryMonster]

No response. Mailbox is not full.

[Jon Shafer]

Oh well... looks like war may be inevitable, if they're unwilling to even reply...

[Jon Shafer]

I sent this PM to Picahulu after talking with Togas:

'Stand Down or Else' sent to Picahulu of NDE:

It's come to the attention of Lux Invicta that you are building up forces, for we have seen them. We demand that you remove your scouts from our land immediately, and stand down all aggressive action towards Lux. Should you refuse, then you risk facing the combined armies of the alliance of Lux Invicta and the Roleplay team.

We await your reply.

We must force them away from war with the help of the Roleplay team. Togas said he'd have History Guy send a PM of a similar nature to them. Together, perhaps, we can delay this war until we and our allies are ready.

[BigFurryMonster]

Good work!

[CiverDan]

If they are unwilling to talk...we have to prepare for war, we have no other choice.

[WarriorPoet]

Yes, what folly should fall on the fields of blood...

[Jon Shafer]

They have ignored our message, and, well, the situation is pretty obvious unless you're (literally) blind or stupid.

[Jon Shafer]

Final message sent to Borc of NDE:

The approaching of your army towards our city and refusal to move your units from our land is unacceptable. We demand you stand down now, or you will be subject to war with the alliance of the Glory of War and Roleplay teams in addition to Lux Invicta. If you are willing to risk a war against the rest of this continent, then so be it. This is your final warning.

I got assurance from Togas that they would send a forceful follow-up PM to them as well. We may avoid this war, as doubtful as it may seem...
