I have already read them. The Great Khan can see into your soul and read your thoughts. Such as they are.

Your orders are "Zzz...zzz...zzz..."? I.e. sending your troops to sleep?

So, what did you think? Boring, right?

I waffled back and forth between attacking Polotsk and attacking Izborsk. In the end, I decided to do both.

My exact orders were to take three brief naps, separated by ellipsis dots. The warriors of Aquitaine have had a long trek to get clear across Europe and are still suffering from Carrack lag.

Not bad. That was a good move, actually, taking the northern route.

Well, you chumps have got your 1,250 now. Are you going to end this one, or string it out forever?

It seems I somehow issued orders which I wrote at the start of the week and not the ones I thought I had recieved confirmation for at the end of it. Apologies Acquitaine, my men hasten to the east coast this turn. We may yet have them shipbound...

Well that turn was a succesful one! A number of provinces become part of the lovely empire of Morocco.

Roum and Sicily are no longer with us.

Time for some more fancy writing on the map!

I can't seem to keep up with everyone, I'm far from the front lines now.

My horsemen know just how you feel, they've been everywhere from Cordoba to Croatia, via Rome. Phew!

My heavy cavalry survived the attack on Naples. For them, the war is over.

I'm hoping that my footmen in Rome (Liberty X) last out the game, they were the first unit I created.

Kind of sad once you are out of the game you can't follow the game anymore... It's like you ARE actually dead.

Is Roum out this round also, or was PKA right that she would 'outlast' me??

Dead King!

No, Roum bit the big one in the same turn.

How do you spell "Ha Ha, Phhhhhhhht!".

Good as a win in my book, and looking forward to your demise.

Dead King!

Well the tide has certainly turned. The Horde is up against it.
Most of Anatolia is in Moroccan hands. (Tarsus is Aragonese) The northen reaches are fast becoming Acquitanian places of leisure.
Aragon and Hungary are holding sway in the centre. Castille has fingers in many pies with troops on all fronts.

And Morocco owns the med, and is looking at expanding its land inestments in Central Europe.
