Fixed Game Part III

[Keygen]

"High Priest-King Constantine found today in his palace in Athens a letter. There was just only a sentence: "Turn 37 to Athens". So the great King played his turn at once and sent his messegers to the neighbor Assyria to deliver Turn 37 with the distinction of urgent!"

"Another message arrived to my royal hall today from the great Zulus. It was in their nature language (accually German) and due to the lack of a translator we couldn't know exactly its content. But we could understand. It was the answer to our maps exchange request. There was no Zulu maps in there! We now know that the Zulus are not friendly toward us! I hope they don't underestimate us. That would be a great mistake. And if untrust is the answer then I can assure the Zulus that we the Greeks are a friendly nation and do not like to create problems with our neighbors in this cruel world."

Turn 38 to King Thor the Mighty ---

[King Thor]

Turn -> Shaka of the Zulus

======================

The 1st Samurai Brigade has once again resumed its mission to rid Prussia of the uncivlized barbarians. Our wise King, sent a team of able cartographers with the brigage to map out the lands of the North as well. Indeed the proverb "two birds with one stone" comes to mind.

In other news, King Thor has finally given his blessings to a team of diplomats, to act as his emissaries to foreign nations. Their first duty will be to establish ties with the mighty and mysterious people of Zulu land. The King is uncertain if they will need to be escorted once they leave the well gaurded lands of Russia. For past our southernmost Phalanx camp, there are no more roads to guide them. And no safety from the savage tribes that inhabit the jungles of Zululand. Although the diplomatic envoy has already left the vicinity of Moscow making use of Russias fine road network. The King will perhaps see it fit to let a small battalion gaurding the southern border escort it.

[King Thor]

People in Russia pray that the turn has reached the King of the Zulus safely and not been looted by the savages in the Zulu jungles.

Stavros is delinquent. Probably another server or ISP problem. "Anything built by man, can get busted..." Is that how that quote goes?

Turn 38 -> shaka of the Zulus once again.

It appears some native tribes in the zulu forest seized the turn on its way to the Zulu people.

[Stavros]

Shaka at last gain control of space time continum and allow people to live before they die...
(ie... turn sent)

[St Jon]

Jonihito sends turn to most Honourable Keygen.

[Keygen]

"Turn 38 received from the respected Jonihito, leader of the Japanese!"

"The Greeks demand from the Zulu mounted archer-scout to leave the Greek Lands immediately! Otherwise we will practice force against you! We consider your violation and the entrance to a Greek owned ruins as a brutal act of war! I Demand explanations at once or you will suffer our wrath!"
