New Game 87 Thread

Mighty Easterlings,

With my seers availible to do your research I’m sure I will be able pay for my brothers requests. Prepare your massive forces for battle as we have the details hammered out.

To the True Lords of the Seas,

Greetings from the Blind Sorcerer. I’m very interested in our becoming allies. As with the Easterlings if there is anything my mages can do for you merely ask. I’m looking forward to a long and mutually properous relationship.

Great and Honourable Harad,

I extend my hand in friendship and offer any assistance I might be able to provide to help you defend your honour against the liable and slanderous comments passed by the elf loving changelings the “Wood Faires.”

Dunlend & Rhudaur we await your emissaries…

Doug - you’re BS this game. You look like BS, smell like BS and most CERTAINLY talk like BS. Keep it up, you’ll drive them into the Freep camp begging for soap and a mask.

Woodbrad of Bradwood

… like, wetting your pants and running in blind panic?

Should be good for a laugh before we put Maethelburg to the sword. Always nice to mix business and pleasure. :wink:

Hey, not fair! You said you wouldn’t talk about that~! :frowning:

Been a Longtime since I played this one… I hope the FP are ready for a WK that loves having many many targets …

Arthy, Cardo and WM your all toast! I love FP for breakfast! Pass the butter and strawberry jam please!:fork:

Hello nuetrals misonor@ yahoo.com… would love to hear from you!:wink:

Gothmog et al signing on,

Noticed a town of mine drew the attention of the Eothraim, do not tempt the lions of Mordor out of their pridelands…

we may not be the strongest at start…

but I will exact revenge w/ interest as the 'plex burns under the appreciative eye of our lord Sauron.

Murazor: "And then we shall… " (frowning) "Oh brother, would someone PLEASE get Khamul out from under the table? Get a backbone man!’

Khamul (quivering): “Oh yeah, easy for you to say Mr. has all sorts of armies and such in the mountains! You don’t have Woodbrad to deal with!”

The Dragon Lord sends greetings, and announces its peaceful intentions with all neighbors. You let me keep my stuff, and I’ll graciously allow you to keep yours from my huge and powerful armies.

Laugh.

Apparently your better is toasting me with Jam, so it doesn’t look like your stuff is under any threat. Shame, I had such high hopes for this game. :frowning:

I’d especially like to talk with Rhudaur :smiley:

Ahhhh time for revenge! I will be swift, silent and deadly. :stab: The cold Morgul steel will slide between your ribs, spilling your blood, watching the life slowly leave your body as your eyes dim.:fork: The last vision you will see is me smiling at your soon to be lifeless corpse! :cool:

To the Freeps - Fear me! :eek::eek:
To the neutrals - You can reach me at herman@iinet.net.au
To the DS - Fear me! I mean, hi I’m your friendly neighbourhood Cloud Lord

Greetings all – Duns Checking in , I was gonna wait till turn 1 results to see which side contacts me and which side doesn’t but have decided to play the Duns in a way I never played them before !! So here goes – first off – I know people from both sides so figured i would be getting contacted anyway !!

I consider Dun Territory to be – starting at hex 1319 and following the Major river NE to hex 1714 , then following the Minor river E to hex 2014 , then the 5 (that I can see on my map – if don’t know which ones these are have one of your allies provide you with one since there are a number of Exp. players ) mountain hex’s S to 2019 , the plains hex 1920 then the mountain hex 2021 still going S to the hill and rough hex at 2023 , then going W from 2023 all the mountain hexes in the 23 row to hex 1523 , then sw still in the mountains to hex 1425 and of course following my map back up to the starting hex 1319 !! And of course all hexes inside these boundaries !!

OK – now that I have outlined what I consider Dun Territory I am including one more thing – I consider the Nin-in-Eilph (1715) and Tharbad (1614) bridge to be 1/4 mine !!

If the Bridge goes down without my Prior knowledge , I will consider this an act of War and I shall respond as such , If it is decided that the free people want it down , I want compnsation as it is 1/4 mine – so I would want 2500 gold and 2500 in timber or will just take 10000 in Gold over all to off-set my interest in the bridge !! I would want the compensation either before or on the turn it goes down – if not – this is an act of war and I shall respond as such :fork: !!

I know this sound Unfair to the free side – so to off-set this – the 5 mountain hexes – 2115 , 2016, 2117, 2018, 2019 , as I said are considered My territory and as such if the Evils plant a camp without my knowledge – this will be considered and act of war and I shall respond as such – if the evils want to create camps in my territory (those 5 hexes)
I want prior notice and 2k for each camp given to me prior to or on camp placement (so would be 10K as I am asking for from freeps for the bridge destrcution)-- failure to do so will be an act of war and dealt with as such :fork: !!

I expect no other such camps to be placed within my borders except the above as I am getting compensation for them – If any other camp inside my Borders , the camp shall be forfeit , and act of war shall have been commited and again dealt with as such :fork: !!

Any armies that enter my territory will be considered Hostile and dealt with accordingly and again considered and act of war – so make sure of all army and navy movements are correct – I don’t want and I will not except any excuses :mad: !!

This being the case – i consider any artifacts inside the borders I have laid out to be MINE :wink: , as such I want to be notified and permission will have to be granted to let others in to get them (if I decide I don’t want it)-- so if I pick up a nations message that Elrond or Murazor , Etc has an encounter inside my territory – I will consider this an act of war and deal with it as such !! I would expect the other side to send me the encounter message to have me join there side and I was also lucky and have one LA spell , will have a second one by turn 2 , If I pick up a new character or other side send me a name and hex location I will be sending in one of my newly created agents – that scout at double to find out and confirm the Perp :bash: !!

Any violation of the Above and as I said I consider it an act of war and will be dealing with it accordingly !! Have some more things to think out that I may post , But except for the above – mainly want to remain neutral and see which side can wooooo me the best :hug: !!

Don’t mind opening up lines of communication , but really would like to hear from my nuetral Brothers and maybe get a military alliance going – something along the lines – if we get jumped by one side we attack the other – might as well have a strong third Alliance in this game !!

Most should have my e-mail – if not I can be reached at NYPDBLUE19@aol.com !!

Lets have a Fun and Interesting game , hopefully one thats lasts twice as long as the last one week !!

Mike – Dun Emmisary

The bridge should be 1/2 yours. To redress this unbalance against the Free Peoples, you might consider claiming Vamag also. Please advise when you’d like to facilitate the naval transfer so you can go and claim your land from the DS invaders.

Woodbrad of Bradwood

No – we only lay claim to 1/4 as on our side of the bridge is only a village that would have put effort into it and Cardolan’s MT we assested would have put forth 3/4 towards the building to unify our two great nations !!

Thus the reason for a total offer of 10k (cheaper then 2500 gold and 2500 timber), just as Sauron Lackeys where offered camp placement in MY mountain hexes for 2k each for total of 10K , same amount as the freeps !!

So speaks Enion

Ok , Enion has come up with two more things during his meeting with his advisor – me :slight_smile: !!

First – the camps that Saurons lackeys pay me to create in my mountain hexes can’t go above that – a camp – if do will be an act of war and dealt with as such :fork: !!

Second – with most of my commanders being in my capital on turn 1 – I might start downgrading or attempting to downgrade one evil and one freep each turn – so if one side wants to use spell 404 – don’t be surprised if you see I have some downgraded on your side !! When I start this will send each side a copy of relations to other nations to show I am not downgrading just one side – when finally join a side and flip my icon that side will go back to neutral anyways but at least I should have about half of the side I go against downgraded !!

So speaks Enion – Lord of the Duns

200 research artefacts from this game is a fair price - I’ll turn free on completion. Or DS if they get there first. That’s not the way I want to play the game, but to maintain the spirit of things it’s only fair to quote a price!

A little miscalculation there - the price should be 6 researches for that task, one per 2 actions. It would of course cost the same to destroy the 4 LR camps plus one BS camp. Got to keep things fair!

I like your style! A real neutral!

Bradwood you scrambling already! It’s only turn 0… Aww the smell of burnt toast with butter and jam! :fork:

It’s Woodbrad. Bradwood is the big green splotch in the middle of your ally’s maps - I know you don’t have one, ask them, they’ll explain it to you.

Woodbrad of Bradwood

Brad and company,
