Yes, I did play stupidly in MD, but that's what rookies do sometimes. I'm over it.
You didn't help me get into the game aside from transferring an email address to the GM; let's look at it this way: I helped you out by taking over for your nephew in a timely manner. And speaking of stupid, you don't recall your non-response to me when I off ...[text shortened]... u, Honorable No. One.
I agree with you on this point: some people don't learn.
Originally posted by no1marauderI share recon with my allies, so I know what's going on in the front. The question is, do you know what's coming?
You must not be able to see most of the board.
Besides, when your defensive lines are toppled (which will come soon) you'll have no option but to concentrate on one/two strongholds and leave large chunks of territory for the taking.
Originally posted by PalynkaSo far, your "allies" have lost ground in the north. And your strategy suggestions are laughable.

Originally posted by no1marauderNo No1 you are incorrect (again)
These are lies (again). You had every chance to win in NE but miserably blundered against a bot. The agreement I made was kept to the letter and if you had had more GPV than Sweden when we reached the level to claim victory, I would have claimed victory with you. If you and Sweden had reached that level before me and one of you, the two of you would have ...[text shortened]... keys and vassals to join your war against Kyushu. Now it's just them being true "allies"!
Yes l had a bad run against an insane bot that attack everywhere at once which l have never seen repeated.
You have not denied that you had dealing with others in NE where you were prepared to turn against me - is this true?
You send almost nothing to assist me - laughable, l sent two fleets and land forces and captured provinces in Iberia which helped distract forces. You did not assist me in the slightest in the east.
l do believe you would have honoured our agreement if l had reached GPV first - my comments were to ATY ion the context of when l entered into the alliance what l thought and the fact that when l knew l was not going to make the winning duo l did not betray our alliance -whcih you so readily want others to in this game.
l dont follow your last point?
You said Uesugi and l always wanted to attack Kyushu - that is not true - Kyushu attacked outwards not the other way around. You made my mind up for me when you declared war on me. You made others minds up for them when you continually verbally assaulted them.
In this game you have made a pariah of yourself by your own words and deeds - do not try to cast blame onto others to distract from where the real action is. You have cost your vassals any chance of winning. There are any number of nations from within the collective alliance against you who could feature in a victory.
You should let someone else do your diplomacy for you while you focus on what you are good at (battlefield strategy) the combination - assuming the other had a clue) would be most formidable.
Originally posted by no1marauderHow is it that an "ally" gets a mute response after he makes the overture towards working together, continues to receive no word that the first party has any interest in such an arrangement, and then endures petty insults for weeks by that person? Can you explain that one to me?
You did continue as an ally. Perhaps you forgot.
I'll go make popcorn - this is entertaining stuff! Your material is theatre of the absurd! 😀
Originally posted by nook7I never had any dealings in NE to turn against Russia. I briefly considered getting Naples in a victory coalition, but decided against it. That would not have involved any hostile action against you, however.

Your memory is terrible. I sent a rather large land army with a bunch of siege artillery to assist you and it helped you take several fortified provinces. Ring a bell now? I would have sent more, but we always faced the great bulk of the enemy's forces in the West in that game.
In a PM, you talked about the "natural expansion" of your towards the east when I tried to get you to assist against the Uesugi. If you never had any intention of warring against the Uesugi, then it is obvious that the two of you would wind up attacking Kyushu. Please stop spreading falsehoods.
My diplomacy is fine with people who want to win. I admit I don't know how to deal with people who play a game with no intention of winning. I don't seem to have a problem in other games; everybody in those seems to want to win them, not merely help someone else do so.

Originally posted by PalynkaI have 238 GPV, you have 184. Who's cramped? When I went to war with the Amako on turn 11, they had 213 GPV; now they have 158.
That's so further south, that it just goes to show how cramped up he is.
I guess you really don't know what you're supposed to be doing in the game (check the victory conditions).
No1 there are numerous posts made by yourself where you accuse me and others of lying.
What you fail to understand (which surprise me as you are usually so astute) is that just because you dont agree with someone or does not mean they are lying.
Let me repeat that to make sure you are clear - just because you dont agree with someone does not mean they are lying.
l try not to make a habit of lying, and have absolutely no need to lie about my actions in this or any other game l have played with you.
