The assault on Bourbon by Aragon and Castile qualifies as a triumph by Spanish standards: the defences were overwhelmed despite the incompetence of the artillery drunks. El Gato's foot gave their lives valiantly, as infantrymen should, while his cavalry massacred the defenders in conjunction with the swashbuckling cavaliers of Rodrigo the Gloomy. Casti ...[text shortened]... anks to the King of Morocco for his gift of Egypt. May the Sun shine on all your endeavours.

I'll push that envelope of cowardice as far as it can go! What depths will Aragon not sink to? What depravity will distract him next? Stay tuned y'all.
Originally posted by Bosse de NageI guess a Bot couldn't trick you like the Saxon did so you figured it would be easier. You can add gullibility to your list of attributes. Will you do the Bavarian the favor of declaring war on Venice so he doesn't have to take the losses in Savoy? Apparently his Polish cannon fodder won't be available next turn. Good to hear that the two of you are jointly planning operations; that doubles the possibility of idiotic folly.

Originally posted by no1marauderI see we part ways Doge. I wonder if preparing to make another enemy is wise, when you have so many already.

Originally posted by StarrmanYou broke your alliance with Sicily and aid cowards like the King of Aragon. Like him your nerve failed you against the Heathers after losing one battle. One more enemy hardly matters; I have the Horde, the Saxons, the Aragonese, the Bavarians, the Hungarians, the Turks and I'm sure I'm forgetting someone. You haven't lifted a finger to assist Italy for many seasons; a great army gathers in Northern Italy to strike at King Phil. Will Castile stand with him? Of course not.

Originally posted by no1marauderI have offered my help in previous turns, if you had asked me to send troops, I would have, I have been itching for something to do for a long while.

As to Sicily, you're right, out of frustration I made a bad decision, but the waters are calmed, if King Phil requires my assistance, he knows where I am.

Why did we call off the attack on Lorraine the season after my unfortunate mistake off the coast of Italy?
To Castile: I've been requesting assistance from Spain and Morocco for many turns; it was always "I have to think about it" from Castile. You had a large army in Languedoc which King Phil and I granted passage to; it twiddled it's thumbs while Northern Italy fell. Now your Spanish ally has stuck his tiny dagger in the back of King Phil though so far he has only dared to battle one Crossbowman. You'll have plenty to do soon after Italy falls; the Heathers will be at your doorstep. And they'll be far stronger with greater production and power.
Originally posted by no1marauderI do not recall the suggestion that I move my army through your lands, what turn was this? Did you notify me that I would get passage?

Aragon's choices are his own
Originally posted by Bosse de NageAh yes, that whole debarcle was a very stressful time for Kong, he nearly retired into his hareem for a fortnight with a case of absynthe. I tried my best to soothe the troubled waters, but to no avail.
Accusations were followed by threats; the ship of state changed course accordingly. That's all.
I should thank the King of Aragon for allowing the Bavarian passage through Alsace; if he hadn't done so I would never have had the opportunity to destroy the 10 Archers that KW blundered against the Army of Venice in a Level 7 Fort. 420 CS destroyed for the loss of 3 Peasant rabble and a Light Infantry or 62 CS. The Duke is a fearsome and brilliant general.
