They discovered gunPOWDER at early AD. They can have their fireworks, rockets and spear launchers, but GUNS are invented by the Arabs. The earliest known written formula for gunpowder was dated at 1045, however documents show that gunpowder weapons (not guns) were around before this game. The fire lances (precursor to gun) were invented around this time (1140)so i suppose you could start building those.

This land is dying, our culture washed through and in ruin. We adopted the eastern orthadox early for support but our ties were severed when there church demanded tax. This gritten merciless land that offers us a bossum to rest on. This land that bears little and the little is hard and tasteless. This land where we fish and farm and mine. This is Our land and we intend to claim its stake.



Rich in ore and under the attempt to bolster our culture, Our capital city is erected from within the central towns. Unified under the claw of a white leopard and a cause we set out re-establish old links with our surrounding nations. Unknown whether they are allies i send messengers to the nation that bears green embroided uniforms. There men seem crude and vulgar but there commerce is alive and well. Would it not been for there advance to our borders we would have not have chosen this action so drastically.

With our unwavering vigor we set out to greet this new culture.

I meant as a general reference

Under careful consideration, a divesion is mobilised onto the border territories, We have chosen surbal for our theatre, lack of defenses and low morale will allow out troops to simply walk in, minimal bloodshed. To then we move to the asov a border terrrtory that still holds our alliegence, we refuel and restock our men. From there we will push into the capital of Khazar through the moutain pass. From what we decivered from there local maps, Rill stands to be very wealthly and, fertile, rich on the old flood plains of the caspian sea. This should bolster both our economies.



We shall start when you are ready.

If we win, We would like the land on the Black sea, but you can keep Azov. Is that acceptable?

India has expanded south. Our army marched into the southern villages where we were met with little to no resistance and were able to expand without much bloodshed. We have now expanded to around Bangalore (if you know where that is )

Will somone be updating the map?

I think it's safe to say France has taken Sardinia by now, with Rome's support.
France is now embarking on a conquest of Africa, our first target is Algeria.

I believe that we now have sufficient walls to protect our kingdoms. We are at a great economical state, and have the resources to train 1000 men for each post I make. We currently have a good army of 200,000, let me break it down:

Archers: 10,000
Cavalry Archers: 30,000
Light infantry: 60,000
Heavy infantry: 10,000
Light Cavalry: 70,000
Heavy Cavalry: 18,000
Royal Guard: 2,000

We have a surplus in many resources, including silver, stone, wood, silk, and grains. We're also gaining resources from trade alone which would otherwise be unheard of by our kingdom.

Now, forward we will attack the NPCs in the Saudi Arabia area, just south of what was Turkey. We'll send our light soldiers in for a raid, and leave our heavy units/archers of 70,000 in Persia for defense. If we do conquer the 6 NPC kingdoms, we won't claim it but sell it to whoever wants it. 100% of the land costs 100,000 soldiers, 50% is 50,000, etc. That is, if I defeat them. I'll report my progress on the battle later.

I would say that "those NPC land"
for those to be taken, rome would have to declare war against it, since it is acually a land so to speak.

From: Cormorant of the Austric Tribe

Both of us seem to be known for our ability to use war to our advantage, if what I hear of you is correct. We both have large amounts of land on different parts of the world, and we wish for an alliance. Ask any of the nations we have encountered with, we are trusting and able. We may be low in terms of military but in supplies we rule.

Sincerely,
Cormorant

To: ALL

We thank you for your offers and kindially accept.

To: Rome
Fr: The Holy Kingdom of Georgia

The kingdom of Georgia wishes you to re-consider your war against our friends and allies in the Balkans and tells you that you could possibly just attack kingdoms in feudal Germany with better results (Not a nation because it is just a bunch of small states. If you continue with your war, the full force of the Holy Zoroastrian kingdom of Georgia will descend upon you along with the rest of the Balkan Alliance.

To: Kiev Rus
Fr: The Holy Kingdom of Georgia

We wish to speak in terms of an alliance in case of a future conflict with Rome.

To: The Balkan Alliance
Fr: The Holy Kingdom of Georgia

Don't worry, we've got your back.

No.... We could, however use a Poland, Bulgaria, Mongolia, Castle, Argon, Portugal, Egypt, Ghana, Morocco, Java, or any Native American kingdom. You cannot, however use a time machine.

Please, if this task may require war with Persia, reconsider. I know we are not allies but let me warn you Persia is not only probably the most powerful force in the planet, but those who are ranked right below him are allies with him, and will fight with him. This includes me, so bring war I will be your enemy, listen to my warning and draw back (if it does require war) and I wish to be your ally.

Our first option would not be war... we are Peace-loving and would much rather have non-violence. All we want is Pakistan, and once we get that we will stop expanding into your lands. I would not want to start a war with the most powerful nations in the world, and therefore am willing to negotiate. If you are the voice for Persia (Autobot, since he hasnt responded), then please allow for further discussions to ensue.

Also, I would also like to be your allie

We, also would advise against a war with Persia. Although the war in Pakistan would not be in our internist to intervene, we, too have allied with Persia in the past and know well their military strength.

Rome flings its first of the newly developed fire-gas rocks(we put it into a thin rock to stop it from randomly setting thins on fire) into the most northern Balkan land. It goes better than expected and starts a huge fire burning down the entire capital and the citys around it.

Who here says this is ok for him to make (It is 1160 and the first exploding rocket didn't come till much later)? Even if you could do that, you could not make a fire large enough to burn entire big cities.

what the heck?! the first explosives didnt even come before 1300, or possibly 1200. between there.
and those guns were uncontrollable meaning they were only used to scare off the fiends

so i definitly, vote against that.

Hey, China or austric, seeing as this war is between two players. (Me allied with the Balkan Alliance and Rome allied with itself) we probabially should have a third party for this. My Plans:
Relying on defence, Our troops will build forts and traps (Pits with spikes on the bottom) to help them hold their land. Our arrows and Greek Fire shall rain from our positions and we also shall practice gurrilla warfare. When we are forced to leave, we will leave behind weapons made for giants, leading the romans to believe that the Georgians are all giants. (Alexander the great did this.) Also, we shall use the bulgarian navy and hire privateers to harrass Roman trade and shipping. We also shall de-capatate any romans that get captured and send them back home to their roman Familys to make them sick of the war.

Its takin our fullest concentration, Rill has been completly rebuilt, trade routes are set up and a sustainable all year food source from the sea has allowed exponential growth of our cities. The fertile lands have done us well and crop recent advancments in agrilcultral methods such as the newly done crop rotations has filled our coffiers and our people. We began building a wall and fortress's into the moutains and its pass. Some casulties from land slides but no major setbacks. Estimated time for completion is a full year. Militirisation of a few local ports has been under way and we will soon be able to raise a armada for our forces.

Our border have been pushed further south in the uncliamed territories. Resistance is not a worry as we offer a peaceful terms, and both parties are benefitial.

We encoutered a few mishaps crossing the border strip of land since it seemed the persians had set up camp on the outskirts of my newly conqured territory. We request a audience to discuss what options are available in terms of crossing this area.
