firefarter you can be the Ottoman Empire. They seem to be very powerfull and you can pick wich side you want to be on. We need someone to lead the Ottoman Empire, as they are a major power but do not have a leader.

OOC:
Metaliturtle I hope we can have Britain as an Indepent nation still. I was going to try to be more friendly with you and not attach, but when you attacked my navy again, well that change things. I just wanted you to know.

[Jack_www]

To WCI:
We will be giving you arms and training by our officers. We will also station troops at our borders to prevent any amred forces form entering your land. We though are not going to declare war on the United States or Louisiana.

French Diplomacy

occ: Holy a lots happened I need to ccatch up.

To USA: I have formally cancelled our alliance and have sent your scientists home from the Steam POwer project. Cease your invasion of WIC. I do not want the money, but if you are willing to give me QUbec, who know what may happen.

To European Alliance: I think we could include Britain as a fourth member of our alliance. We have had past difficulties but we should try and let them reclaim their original 13 colonies in North America.

To Louisania: If you do not stop your invasion we will be forced to act.

To MExico: I am gald to help, I give you another 2 million francs to help your country. I also wish to sign a MPP with you.

To WIC: IF the NATO powers do not cease I will defend your nation. I have sent the 50 thousand troops stationed in Mexico up into the WIC. They have been placed in the border regions of the WIC with LOuisana and USA. If they are attacked I will deeclare war and start invasions from the East to pacify the NATO menace. I also give you 2 million francs to help you modernise and enlarge your armed forces. My allies have also expressed wishes to help.

All Projects are minus two years from their last full posting,

All of North Africa including Morrocco is a fully in the French Empire. Morrocco will be paid for once Britain comes to his senses.

NB THE STEAM POWER PROJECT WILL NOW TAKE 6YRS CAUSE OF THE US WITHDRAWL

To BRitain: I will sign your NAP for the BRitish colonies of GReenland and Iceland. I will give you 5 million francs to help re-build London, and if you sign full alliance with the European Powers I will allow you into the Steam Power project. I don't think you will find a better deal.

I don't think this would be fully fair especially while Mexico, and the Ottomans are free. Perhaps if they wern't I wouldn't mind as I could easily just crush them once again

OOC:
Hey Sheep want to go to the chat room? I will be there.

[mmtt]

Spain wants Britain removal of Gibraltar for her including into Europe Alliance. If she accepts, Spain will help Britain whatever she needs to catch back her formal power.
For now, Spain is vetoing Britain joining.


(Sheep: if you are still here can we meet into chatroom?)

OOC: No one seemed to notice that the secretly US-supported "Barbars" have taken over mexico. If firefarter decides to not be mexico I think US should more or less control Mexico (until a new group replaces the barbars) because the barbars are essential their puppet.

WCI to France: I appreciate your support but I do not like your troops being spread throughout our country. Instead, you could:
1. Supply us with weapons and ammunition.
2. Put troops along the Mexican border and fight from there.
3. Attack from the Gulf of Mexico.
4. Give just a bit of support along the front, perhaps decoying the US and Louisianan troops to where we can then ambush them.

[mmtt]

Well I dunno if it is realistic. Spanish troops are in Mexico and will help any anti-NATO.

[civman2000]

Well since they haven't noticed what happened they haven't done anything yet . Now though, they will have to fight the mexicans.

OOC: WE have 2 unclaimed countries (ottoman emprie and WCI, though I'm somewhat controlling WCI for now). One country (portugal) has been destroyed. If we could get jdd to return or others to join, they could take these new countries (a formidable Ottoman Emprie allied with Britain could challenge France, Spain, and Russia) or start revolts that would weaken countries. This would also help avoid an uber alliance.

could i still do this?

[Giovanni Wine]

OOC: Wow Civman, I didn't intend the barbars to really achieve their goals, I was just hoping to slow down Mexico entrance in the war.

However I put you in charge of their achievments, so if that's what you wanted to happen, let it be so .

IC:
The American troops are stuck in their position, the hit and run tactics are causing the morale of the US troops to rapidly go down, and their willingness to fight is not as high as in the beginning.

General Foster feel betrayed by the US-Government, and declared "The US sent us here only to be killed by the Natives, If they allowed us to attack them we would have defeated them, instead they said to stop here, and we are not achieving anything".

Meanwhile in the Octagon the elite of the US War Generals and the US Defensive Minister have decided to leave Foster's troops there, so that they can keep the Natives busy, and so that Louisiana can take over the country.

Reinforcments are sent to Foster, however the morale of the troops there is dropping fast, and many soldiers are actually planning a rebellion against the US Government.

--------------------

A small group of Swedish refugees have asked to the US the right to form a government in Exile in Newfoundland.
The US has granted them this right, they will be able to govern their country from there, while waiting for it to be liberated, however Newfoundland will still be a US Territory.

--------------------

To France:
If you help us against the WCI, we will grant you the city of Montreal and the surrounding area.

To Mexico:
We congratulate your country with your new more Nato-like position, we don't think you should allow any Spanish "protectorate" in your country, you just managed to have independencefrom them, are you sure you want to be their vassal now?

------------------

Barbars Government in Mexico has declared neutrality in the conflict with WCI, as the Mexican army is too small, and the barbars have big enough problems keeping their country together, and can't join a war right now.

I forgot to say that, since the barbars could not spread their influence over the Spanish occupied Mexico, the Spanich occupied land has split up from the government of Mexico City, and decided to join the Spanish Empire, as they felt that they were safer and more stable when they still were under the Spanish flag.
