    Concerning the missing stack of workers from Marseille, they are there - just not in the form of workers. The garrison in the city assigned all citizens rifles and "conscripted" them into the defense of the Ottoman Empire. The city was indeed abandonded, but it was just a shell of a city when the retreat order was given. Marseille has surved the Ottoman Empire well in this confict and will be remembered as a patriotic city which gave the supreme sacrifice - itself.

    I have decreed that all banners of the Ottoman Empire be lowered to half-mast to show respect for the brave citizens of Marseille and the tough choice that had to be made in service to the greater good of the Ottoman Empire.
    Ha, I throw scorn at you Lord of the Ottomen.

    You abandonned your own people.

    And then you ran away.

    Where are you running mighty lord of the shadows...

    - to Austria - for protection from the White Emperor

    Yes you should lower your flags in memory of those who served you well,
    and then were slaughtered by their master.

      Nice touch, Sultan. Yes, those brave Ottoman soldiers and citizens-soldiers will be provided for as they travel through the Austrian empire.

      The Austrian empire has lowered our flags to half mast as well.
      Yes oh Great White Emperor of the Grand Austrian people.

      Good to see you willing to look out for your allies.

      Is this Sultan of your south a brother in arms, we hope so.

      We wonder if you will turn on him the way you turned on your British allies.

      From one who was so grateful to one who organised to cut the Right of Passage.

      Then abused my lads for returning home

      Hey Sultan of the Ottomen, you better be careful for your lads in Austria.

      So Great White Emperor of the Grand Austrian people, what is your next plan?

      - Will you charge out of Milan and destroy the troops that are pillaging the infrastructure you never built?

      - Will you bring your mighty Hussars to the gates of Amsterdam?

      - Or will your mighty fleets sail from the Adriatic to the Heart of London Town?

      Lower your flags oh Great White Emperor of the Grand Austrian people, for you too bear the shame of this act in Marsielle

        • Oh dear me, how could I have forgotten.

          Lord Wittlich of the famed Ottomen,

          I would like to report to you the where abouts of several of your marvelous frigates.

          Please look for them on the bottom of the Med.

          Yes these able bodied seamen were very busy fighting, sailing, blowing smoke in many and varied ways.

          All very impressive one must admit.

          Yet the apple once again goes to the Royal Navy.

          Looking forward to see if you have any more of them there fine vessels.

          A suggestion from my Admirals... send more cannons...

          • Wow...the British propaganda machine is in full swing!!!

            Very good comments, very amusing.

            You found out my plan!!! How did you know I was planning to stab my Ottoman "friends" in the back? Don't you know how hard I worked to get the Sultan on my side, get a state of war against Russia, Spain and England, force him to abandon Marseilles -- just so I could break my right of passage with him and abuse his troops as they march home through Austrian territory???!!!!???? I guess I've been pretty transparent.

            Darn, now I will need to formulate another evil plan.....
            Haven't been here for ages....
