13 Aug 11 UTC Spring, 1: alex got lucky - being able to say 'carthaginian tanks' maxes out every awesomeness category
13 Aug 11 UTC Spring, 1: Whom would I be speaking too if I addressed Mr. Metternich and Mr. Westphalia?
14 Aug 11 UTC Spring, 1: Metternich = Jackie Chang
Westphalia = The Dean
14 Aug 11 UTC Autumn, 1: Someone please mention the 'Freedom of the Greek's as a thing to get Dean onside :P
14 Aug 11 UTC Autumn, 1: Biggest disappointment is that Alex and Jack are on opposite sides of the map :P hehe
14 Aug 11 UTC Autumn, 1: I'm an armoured duck, everyone attack Jack, he's not to be trusted ;)
14 Aug 11 UTC Autumn, 1: EMPHASIS ON THE WINK
14 Aug 11 UTC Spring, 2: NAH i'm more disappointed that quincey and jack are on opposite sides
14 Aug 11 UTC Spring, 2: someone should write a book about how jack became like jack
14 Aug 11 UTC Spring, 2: Jack and I have always been on opposite sides whenever we play this game, and Dean seems to be always the GREEN guy.
14 Aug 11 UTC Autumn, 2: To the great nations of the Mediterranean, the Senate and People of Rome ask for your support in their war against the treacherous and deceitful Carthaginians. These hateful people deliberately and with the utmost conniving broke our agreements for a DMZ in the Berber Sea. Fear not, for they shall be punished for their war mongering and traitorous ways. Trust no Carthaginian to keep his word, trust no Carthaginian to have honour!

Inimic Mortuus!

Caute,

The Senate and people of Rome
15 Aug 11 UTC Autumn, 2: cathargo et delina est?
15 Aug 11 UTC Autumn, 2: For Carthage's part we offered a full explanation and removed our troopers from Saguntim as sign of peace. However, you should know better that Romans are not to be trusted.

Yours in faith,
The council and Senate of Carthage
15 Aug 11 UTC Autumn, 2: The Carthaginians are a low and base people with no sense of honour or propriety in the conduct of their affairs. Here is the terms of our agreement, which their Senate and Council subsequently ratified.
Rome: “…we are a generous people and do not seek the enmity of Carthage, hence we grant you full jurisdiction in Iberia, with a DMZ in Tarraco, the Ligurian sea and the Berber Sea.”
Carthage: “…This seems a most fair agreement. We accept.”
The proof is in their words. If they cannot be trusted to keep to their treaties then they cannot be trusted to behave as fitting nations of the Mediterranean.
15 Aug 11 UTC Autumn, 2: "To the Council and Senate of Carthage,

Despite our entreaties that you fight against either Egypt or Greece, you have flagrantly thrown our generosity back into our faces. You must answer for your crimes in the field of war!

The Senate and the People of Rome have spoken."

Brothers, we cannot tolerate such flagrant warmongering. Carthage will defend the freedom of the Mediterranean at whatever cost. To arms!
15 Aug 11 UTC Autumn, 2: Here is what I actually said:

"To the Council and Senate of Carthage,

Despite our entreaties that you respect the peace, you have flagrantly thrown our generosity back into our faces. You must answer for your crimes in the field of war!

The Senate and the People of Rome have spoken."

Now I am willing to verify this to anyone who would like to view my profile on a monitor screen. He has lied and broken treaties. For that he was to be punished. Now he has besmirched the honour of the Roman people. For that he will be annihilated.
15 Aug 11 UTC Autumn, 2: ooooh colin, 50/50% chance
I think you should sidon it. I'm getting tyre of you.
15 Aug 11 UTC Autumn, 2: jesus, something's made you sea red. i'm pretty petrafied tbh
15 Aug 11 UTC Autumn, 2: Big talk for someone yet to input his moves.
I admit he did not send such words to me, but indeed, spoke them.
And who has started flaming up the whole thing? Who's paranoid fantasies so disturb them in the dead of night that they must take aim at any country that does not meet its most stringent and unreasonable demands?

Rome. She would conquer us all brothers, let us unite in the cause for Freedom!
15 Aug 11 UTC Autumn, 2: I like cake
