Vox Daily War Report

From the Voxian Ministry of the Environment - er - I mean Information.

570bc

Trash talking. Seriously. General Jon has reported that the camp site between Arashi and Tempest had become so garbage strewn that it was necessary to move camp. A number of Immortals have come down with food poisoning as a result of the unsanitary conditions, and therefore have shown up as wounded in the game. Voxian medical authorities say this could also be the result of eating the 'unclean' chicken in the area.

At any rate, it has been determined that Voxian medical facilities are in order.

The expected naval conflict did not arise. The chickens - er - I mean sailors of GS clearly thought better of engaging the naval experience of Vox Controli.

The remainder of the fronts remain quiet. Although one could cut the tension with a scimitar. That is of course, if one was not so busy bringing up this morning's breakfast. Damn chickens.

Best one so far.

You could have been his speechwriter

Fantastic, Beta! You're doing a good job livening up the war!

[Arrian]

Food poisoning! Heh. That's what you get when you actually EAT the bananas we've been tossing at you!

This is the impression I have of GS's fighting chicken's. They mostly just dance around to annoy and distract the Voxian troops. Showing a leg here and a thigh there........




Or does the "chicken" fighting really just look like this?

[Master Zen]

pretty good chicken dancer!!!

[notyoueither]

That's another variety of chicken we have developed. The Arashian Dancing Chicken. Watch the feet, watch the feet, watch the feet, oops you didn't keep an eye on the beak. Oww, that's gotta hurt!

Whoah there, buddy. I don't know that I would necessarily consider GoW and GS at war. We had a deal that allowed our ships to travel unmolested and we agreed not to attack GS. A GS member stated in casual conversation that if we ever landed our Horsemen they would kill them.

This further proves how bad the press coverage was. I couldn't even figure out who was actually fighting VOx Controli -bad press coverage.

Also bare in mind that the peopple of legoland have only had limited international news because everyone is so far away

[Hot_Enamel]

The threat by GS to kill GoW horsemen if they landed in GS territory peeved a few GoW members, so we decided to land a peace keeping observer and an official GoW war reporter to see what would happen. We figured GS would not really want bring a third civ into the war against them...especially since we gave our word that we would not harm them.

But I guess they are arrogant enough to believe that they can take on 2 teams. The GoW are currently accessing their retaliation options.....

The game mechanics show that we are at war...but retaliation / retribution can come in many forms....and can come at any time.

When Vox landed on Bob you threw a hissy fit, but when you land on our continent we're being arrogant for wanting you to leave?

Keep writing those hits, kid.

You didn't exactly ask them to leave did you? It sounds like you killed their Horsies and threw the dead bodies in the Sea. You guy's weren't afraid of a couple of Horsies, were you? You got all them Immortals making camps and such; but they live still? Why'd you kill the poor Horsies?

[nbarclay]

Just to clear up any confusion:

1) Vox faked an "Operation MacArthur" in which they were supposedly about to return to the big continent in force. That would have created a high probability of war with Glory of War and Neu Demogyptica.

2) Vox then, instead, went to war with Gathering Storm, catching us very much by surprise. So far, that war has had a couple minor skirmishes, one turn of larger-scale combat, and some catapult bombardment. Mostly, both sides are making good use of terrain bonuses to deter the other from attacking.

3) Two Glory of War horsemen landed in Gathering Storm territory and were killed. That places Gathering Storm and Glory of War in a technical state of war, but I think both teams have better things to do than to engage in any kind of serious fight with each other at present.

So we have a near war between Vox and a GoW/ND coalition, a war between Vox and Gathering Storm, and a sort-of-war between Gathering Storm and Glory of War. I suppose it's not surprising that by the time news of such events travels halfway around the world to Lego, the situation gets somewhat confusing.

The request to leave must of got lost....
Was it sent just before or just after you killed our horses ?

I do recall the "hissy fit" we had involved a lot of communication with Vox...and even some fair negotiation.

[FrustratedPoet]

When did we tell you it was OK for you to land in our territory?

Are GoW so arrogant that they assume the right to wander through everyone else's territory whenever they feel like it?
