OOC: Did Lux Invicta and Neu Demogyptica meet?

It is a good reason for all others to KILL the scouts. With human players, the question of reputation is somewhat different.

Or just ask them politely to go home...

When the shÃt hits the fan, they all just blame the
"international pressure", and apologize.
(like all politicians do)

Well, as of yet, no response has been heard to my latest batch of diplomatic hails. However, I soon expect something in the way of a salutary greeting and some form of kissing up, which seems to be the way of these Arabs. They are either over-awed by our cities and squids, or they are gearing up for some sort of warfare, or they are all mentally deranged.

My impression is that the Arabs are a very secretive society. They tend to be builders, but they don't seem to be overly excited with it. For the most part, they lean to the expansionist policy. They seem to be doing a good deal of exploring, and all this in the name of their gods, and especially their female deity, Allaht. For her they seem to be mad with fervor. Their religious beliefs tell them to go off and convert all to their religion, using force if necessary, and so I do doubt, especially with their strength in the art of taming wild beasts, that they will stay quiet forever. We must be on our guard.

As for somehow isolating and slaying their scouts, I do not think this would be advisable as of now, not politically or militarily. However, it is not my choice to make. It is simply my opinion that they may become our best allies.

If the these Arabs Hernan is talking about, settles their moors on the Grenada coast... What then? Are we up for a war then?

[History Guy]

If so, war is unavoidable. We cannot afford to have them in the area at this point. The Moors, their Caliph, and their general, Othello, are a great danger to Spanish civilization, especially the family of Ummayads that are for empire. However, unless that event takes place, we must treat them as the best of friends, which I am doing, though I fear that one day they will abolish their religion of theirs and adopt...horror of horrors!...one of monotheism, or one god, and that then they will go even madder! However...unless that day comes, we must treat them civilly.

Ambassador to the Squids...Errrr...I mean the Arabs

[ThePlagueRat]

Yes, we will treat them nice now...
Let's just hope the gods will give
them enough to deal with elsewhere.

As ambassador to Lux Invicta, I can say that they have warring tendencies. AdmiralPJ is their FAM, and he fancies himself an excellent military strategist. Trip is their leader, and as we know, likes to fight his battles, but, I think they are not as openly aggressive as GS or GW might be.

I am certain that they do fear GW somewhat, and are apprehensive about being caught off guard by them in the future. So, I think they will try to keep the rest of us happy, so that should they need an alliance, they may get it.

If Neu is aggressive towards Lux, there will be a war, I do not see Lux cowering from a fight.

Obviously, Neu is the unknown entity here.

I can send a PM - vague to the Admiral - to see if they've found anyone.

Master Togas, may I say that we have not met any other civs yet?

[Togas]

It's fine to let them know that we have not met any other civs yet, but only volunteer the info if they ask of it.

The focus on the email should be arranging for a trade on the event of our meeting ... and trying to see if they want to arrange for a meeting.

It's also to feel them out to see what they'll offer and what they'll tell us.

Neu is provably going on a conquest rampage as soon as they get thos god*mned ansar.We must take care and pray the spirits they get some 6 or 7 barbarian uprisings near their capital city

[jdjdjd]

Ok, I have sent a PM.

I will copy our Supreme Leader.

I will let you know what I hear.

I know Admiral PJ has read my note, but I have no response from him. Tonight I will check the chat, he usually is there when I am on.

As for Neu, I have looked at many of their posts, and they are either hiding behind the language barrier or there really is one.
There is an indication that they are being aggressive, to Lux and that they two have met. This is insinuated by Lux team members. Neu's only comment (by helios earlier today) is to have said "don´t worry we´ll win! ", so that may be a confirmation.

GF was bold enough to say, I thought you guys already met, in the following post. No response specifically confirming it.

May opinion is that did meet.
