I would normally say 'What part of Private Message don't you understand' when it comes to posting PMz at RHP... but this one is from a game about diplomacy.

So what I will say is this:

Call it what you will? It is chicanery of the highest order!

That will buy some time... geesh. How about some cliff notes?

Wow. I go away from the popcorn gallery for a few days and about 10 pages of material comes in!

Okay, here's what I've got so far. The Norwegians are trying to rewrite the English language seeing as how the English won't be needing it for much longer, the Venetians are ruling the Adriatic while ruling various bits of land that aren't Venice, the Poles are discovering 'you can never really go back home', the Turks are daring people to declare war on them and the Moroccans are quietly waiting for everybody else to self-destruct.

How'd I do? 🙂

Not bad. But I don't understand why the Moroccans don't take Tunis. If I were an ambitious ruler (forsooth!) that would be number one on my list of priorities.

Maybe that's where his troops are finally going after their European holiday.

Yes, it sounded more like Chinese than like Norwegian. 😲 But if we kick him out, what will we get instead?

God påske!

But not a paying member.

I would have stayed because you could have caused greater losses than yours, but anyway. You're the Doge of where? Alsace is another issue involving a rules error.
What rules error is this? Did Aragon make a mistake or are the rules written incorrectly?

Actually what they are referring to is your brilliant ally, the Duke of Bavaria's, failure to realize that if you have a 2 MP army and you move it out of a province that is then occupied by an enemy, you woun't be able to move back into it on the 2nd or 3rd phase as it will now cost 2, not 1, MP to enter. And these guys are winning????

Ohh. Something similar happened to me this turn. We invaded Phase 1, and I send the cavalry to join in Phase 2. However the cavalry saw there had been a battle and were Dalmatian, so they were too timid to go into dangerous territory without a rest.

Who are you to be talking? You were the one who thought every nation had Mongol cavalry and one little fishing vessel could stop a mighty warfleet from proceeding on it's mission.

I never thought any such thing as that all nations had Mongol cavalry. The rules were unclear as regards the fleets and the prior rule was that any battle stopped a fleet from future movement. Besides, my minor misconceptions were of no consequence; they did not lose me anything that I otherwise could have held.
