Diplomacy in another age

[Modo44]

King Modo, ruler of the English people, has issued a statement to all European nations.

"
We, The King, are glad that there are no foreign military vessels operating in the vicinity of English lands. We appreciate the will of other nations to let the peaceful English fishermen do their jobs without any fear of attack. We hope that the future, close and distant, will see us, the rulers, and all our nations still cooperating in this peaceful manner.
"

P.s. The fishermen sent a picture, showing them at work.

Indeed

well we hope your high standards will continue as you venture through the waters of other nations

[Modo44]

Worry not, we have no business in the waters of other nations.

And on to Chrisius.

Thank you most Kindly King Modo of the British, we will not be sending an Armada of fishing vessels to your waters at this time

Onwards to the good people of Prussia and their ruling Lord Beta

[Paddy]

ok folks

I have sent you all an email on this

I did not do the values on bombard correctly

thanks to Modo for testing this and finding the error

so as we have just started etc, shall we restart?

[ChrisiusMaximus]

yes if we want bombard to work

[Modo44]

Actually I'd rather not. Without bombard the Man-O-War has a real edge over frigates. With bombard it's basically down to who finds whom and attacks first. Nay.

[Paddy]

well it must be noted that the reason we have settlers enabled is to offset the bombard

[ChrisiusMaximus]

Hmm Modo does have a good point there, maybe only ships of the line should have the added ability to bombard ??

Yeah, like England has any good land to settle into.

I agree that for ships of the line it does make sense. They are stronger than both frigates and the Man-O-War, so giving them bombard wouldn't change that much.

Paddy, Beta, you might want to check the Monty Python private forum.

Mother Russia cares not for bombardment.

[Paddy]

so do we go with a restart or not
