It is my friends funeral today. Don't expect much, I apologize in advance.
Where must we go, we who wander this wasteland, in search for our better selves?
In Egypt's sandy silence, all alone,
Stands a gigantic Leg, which far off throws
The only shadow that the Desert knows:—
"I am great OZYMANDIAS," saith the stone,
"The King of Kings; this mighty City shows
"The wonders of my hand." The City's gone,
Nought but the Leg remaining to disclose
The site of this forgotten Babylon.

We wonder, and some Hunter may express
Wonder like ours, when thro' the wilderness
Where London stood, holding the Wolf in chace,
He meets some fragment huge, and stops to guess
What powerful but unrecorded race
Once dwelt in that annihilated place.

I'm glad that the Western Roman Empire is too busy fighting off barbarians from the east and north to care for my incursions in Brittany and Aquitaine :D

we should probably message the people who are signed up and have yet to do anything, or haven't done anything for a while, to make sure they remember this. or if they want to drop out.

Are the Viking guys still in this? Just wondering while I make some map updates.

Also, my nation is going to start moving into Scotland, since the Pict player hasn't posted in some time, I'm going to assume the Picts will be npcs, and from what I understand I need to ask permission to attack NPCs?

I am waiting for Trans to respond so we can finish that battle and switch Empires and then he can respond to you.

So since USSR is switching to the East Roman Empire wouldn't it make sense that the ERE Emperor has died and his successor is taking over? Also I don't know about honoring the deal between the Veraxian's and ERE which is why I want a New Emperor to take over.

I have actually not paid any attention to the Eastern Roman Empire and Sassanid posts.

Then go back and read. Its only a few pages...

edit: we really could use more players to fill out the map more, and make it more interesting.

Which does not make me comfortable at all knowing your taking over the ERE.

Yeah well this a role play and I'm not honoring the deal that I had with Trans involving the ERE and the Veraxains so if you thought the West Roman Empire was hard then well better be ready for hell when rping against me. :twisted:

Why are you switching anyway?



and can I have more than one nation(I would make it on the opposite side of the map, and would make sure not to cheat by automatically being nice to each other)


and did you ever think that maybe Transox chose to be the ERE so he didn't have to fight himself?

Well I need something to rp about and with a new Emperor taking over in the ERE it leaves me the chance to act and expand.

Who ever said I wouldn't just take over the old Emperor's place? We were planning on RPing as if the change never happened.
