Carthage to Egypt
Now to discuss the land issue. If you give us 1000 War Elephants and a Right of Passage agreement in the territory, then we have a deal

[Micha]

Egypt to Carthage
The Pharao accepts your invitation, although he won´t come himself for security reasons.
As for the price, we think it´s much too high. A thousand war elephants are worth 250 talents, we simply can´t afford it. Keep the land for now, we will work on an offer to please both sides.

Carthage to Egypt
What about materials to build the "Guardian of the West"?

[Micha]

Egypt to Carthage
That is more realistic. We have limestone, Nubian gold and experienced architects to offer. Unfortunately our rich copper supplies are situated in Sinai and thus under Persian control...

Macedonia to Crete :

You will cede all of your Aegean islands, except Crete itself.

[Tassadar500]

Carthage to Egypt
I suggest you try to get it back from Persia.

[Tassadar500]

Carthage to Macedonia

You say we are the agressive ones? Drop your threats, like you told us to do.

[Tassadar500]

Carthage to Athens
You are a fool. We make peace with Egypt, and tell other nations to do the same. Yet you then bar our citizens? You are crazy.

[foolish_icarus]

Macedonia to Carthage :

"Drop your threats" ? The irony. We are amazed that Carthage would send an envoy all this way without even brushing up on recent local events. Crete began a war, and we are finishing it. Stick to your ledgers and giant statues. You should thank us for eliminating the piracy that would have prevented you from importing the copper for your precious monument.

Carthage to Macedonia
HAH! We declare war on you and your vassal Athens. Prepare to die.

Carthage leader to ambassador speaking
Shut your trap. Your a fool. Get out of here before I chop your BLOODY HEAD OFF.

Carthage leader to Macedonia
We apologize for that. We had recently hired a new ambassador. He is going to be dealt with. Do not worry. Tell Athens of our apology as well.

[foolish_icarus]

Macedonia to Carthage :

We understand. We've had such problems before, ourselves.

[Tassadar500]

Carthage to Macedonia
I would appreciate if you convince Athens that we wish to remain friends. If Athens would like, we could send the head of the dead ambassador to them.

Carthage to Micha
Can you IM me on MSN?

[foolish_icarus]

If Athens would like, we could send the head of the dead ambassador to them.

Macedonia to Carthage :

Actually we don't think that would impress them too much. Perhaps time will ease the distrust.


to Athens :

Ministers can be pretty hard to control, you know. Remember the Paros/Phasis debacle. Anyway, if you feel a need for additional defense, just ask and we will do what we can. The garrison at Athens is for your defense, of course, you need not fear that it will be moved.
