  • Explorers loyal to Phoenix have connected to a region belonging to Trusty!
  • Emissaries of Captain Hook carry this message to all:
    Of course the Caesar has to build some strength before attacking me - after all, he and Falcon only outnumber me by 1 to 7, and that is faaar to risky for his legions! (Fact: The Roman-Pirate conflict started when a Roman diplomat got caught with a message about a plot to attack us, 3 against 1...)

    To All Small Nations, we want to assure you that you have nothing to fear from my kingdom. Unless provoken, my army won't attack any nations with fewer than 9 or 10 regions. May you be prosperous. Sir Gandalf

  • Explorers loyal to Gandalf have connected to a region belonging to No Leader!
  • Explorers loyal to bonanza have connected to a region belonging to L'ennemi du Bien!

    Magamet, I'm curious, are you that Magamet that I used to know? Or are you just someone who chose this name by a chance?

  • Emissaries of Thugwompus carry this message to all:
    Prenthenil was right. Caesar and Falcon dominate and will always do so as long as they attack us one by one. Their lead grows. Little nations, we beg you: Join us! Replace this oppressive system with GLOBAL WAR! Pirates, we are here for you!
