Originally posted by KnightWulfeI've pointed out the Arles' story many times and have proved my version is correct. I was never allied with Arles either.
One of the things that you still seem to fail to realize is that different nations deal with alliances differently. There are different levels of an alliance. We each know what those alliances are, but you keep including everyone who could possibly be or have been an ally and saying that they are the "heather" alliances....
You say that Arles betrayed ...[text shortened]... that I have sited here.
So everyone else who reads this, take it for what you will.
I never demanded that Hungary and/or Poland go to war with you; that's nonsense. I felt it would be in their best interest to do so and it would have been. I don't particulary feel that alliances are overly useful if the realm you're allied with won't assist you in war. At any rate, Hungary knows that we had agreed that the alliance was to be re-instated and he attacked me instead. That is a "stab in the back".
I predicted that the Horde would stab Lithuania in the back; any realm that lets major forces of another realm through their weakly defended territory without necessity is begging for destruction. You were lucky to get away with it; Lithuania was not. The fact remains that Poland tipped the balance for you and you have allowed them to be destroyed unless you go to war with the Horde. I'd rate the chance of that happening as slim; more likely you'll attack the Teutons and Rob will sell them out. Or you'll send all your troops south.
I've stabbed or betrayed no one. I've made a couple of small mistakes regarding troop movements (one as regards to Bithynia last turn) and am happy to reveal those so that people may learn. You've made a number of whoppers like leaving Siege Machines poorly protected and last turn screwing up retreat levels. This is the MD Strategy thread, pointing out how to play the game better was supposed to be the point. You are extremely touchy about any type of constructive criticism; you should try to be a little less thin-skinned.
Actually I have 3 (apparently you forgot Poland) nations attacking me all with very large armies. Castile has 4 Light Infantry in Roum; useful but not exactly a huge force. Suzi's never had to face a 4000 CS and 200 HP force (and neither has anybody else) like I did last turn. Be happy that you have been allowed to concentrate such a force due to the folly of other realms. But I'd say that I'll probably still be around when Suzi is done though that may depend in part on this turnfile (maybe she actually got one in).

So keep on lying...
Originally posted by KnightWulfeI did no such thing; how could I DEMAND they do anything? Grow up, twit.

Post the message, weakling!

Despite what knobber1 keep fantasizing about, I do not live and breathe this game. The two messages in question are from 10 turns ago - thats 2 1/2 months. The RHP site has cleared them off and As they were not important, I did not see the need to send myself email backup copies of them. Perhaps ATY still has the copy he was sent....
Duke Bertram!

Originally posted by KnightWulfeI find it hard to believe that I would use such a phrase in such a context. I had no leverage over either Hungary or Poland to "DEMAND" they do anything. So you're probably hysterically exaggerating. You've done that before regarding my PM's; I sent the same PM early in the game to you, Poland, Hungary and Saxony suggesting it would be in their "best interest" to form what I was calling the "Central Alliance". Only you treated it as a "threat". You really are a pitiful specimen.
You can send them a message including the phrase "I DEMAND that you..."
That is how. Piss off, pea brain.
Originally posted by no1marauderYes, you are right. I am pitiful. I am a moron. I am an idiot. I know nothing of military strategy nor diplomacy. i have never read Sun Tzu's Art of War. I have never commanded the movements and actions of 200 troops in battle and led them to victory after the battalion leader was taken out by a really good archer. I completely lack the military, diplomatic and intellectual prowess needed to succeed at this game and in anything else that involves such skills.

All of that being the case...you must really suck because I am beating you.
Originally posted by KnightWulfeThank Poland. The truly pathetic thing is that it's soooooooooooooo important to ya.

Thank you Poland, for allowing Hungary and myself to EASIER take Venice. We could have done it without you, but your assistance made it that much easier.

Nope. No importance - enjoyment is shoving it back in your face...but no importance.
