1. You cannot hold wars on land not controlled by the participating members. You can however, move your units through them.2. Elwynn has dragons on its side, while Scott (yardistan?) has supersized futuristics zepplins. So, there goes your point.3. Um.. okay.4. I thought it was agreed to let the conflict go indefinately. Oh well.5. You cannot claim unclaimed land, simply because you conquered it in SNARL war. You have to talk to MCS on that. And unfortunately, you aint going to ask them as an Antican, but rather as a Shirerithian. And as a Shirerithian, you have to be aware of the fact that Shireroth has told MCS that it would not be getting more land. Or something to that nature.

Let it be known that a state of war now exists between the Duchies of Yardistan and Brookshire. Here are the conditions for this war:1. The war shall take place in all areas of Micras that are participating in the conflict. That includes any nations that choose to involve themselves besides Shireroth and all unclaimed land.2. The weapons set for this conflict shall be Medieval European weapons only. Magic may be employed by units of 1,000 men or less. Magical creatures and steampunk technologies are forbidden, with the sole exception of elves.3. Each beligerent participant shall be alotted a maximum of 5,000 men per unit. The strength per man shall be proportional to the total number of men in the unit at the start of the conflict. No unit shall be stronger than any other at the beginning of the conflict.4. The conflict shall cease if either of the original beligerent Duchies admits defeat, the conflict lasts more than three weeks, or the Kaiser of Shireroth declares it over.5. Any land claimed in the process of this war may be transferred between Duchies only with the agreement of the Kaiser. ________________It is a damn poor mind indeed which can't think of at least two ways to spell any word.-Andrew Jackson

[Osman Shahanshah]

Modern and magic was agreed earlier with the use of antiquated weapons acceptable was agreed earlier, Elwynn stands by that.Three weeks will probably not be long enough if Jaris is any yardstick. Edited by: Osman Shahanshah  at: 10/2/05 0:55

[Nick Foghorn Leghorn]

007, take a closer look at the declaration. It limits the activity to belligerent lands. And the land claiming was intended to mean that Yardistan if conquers a bit of Brookshire, or vice versa, they keep that land. No new land. ________________It is a damn poor mind indeed which can't think of at least two ways to spell any word.-Andrew Jackson

[Osman Shahanshah]

As stated above Elwynn is not enclined to adhere to condition two of the text. However, by way of a compromise, would simple firearms and grenade firing longbows be acceptable?

I'm happy with WW1-era tech. Viatax Sitadi Axdivijink Regigoraauk

[Nick Foghorn Leghorn]

How about 1812 weaponry? That would make me incredibly happy. ________________It is a damn poor mind indeed which can't think of at least two ways to spell any word.-Andrew Jackson

[extreme007]

foghorn, you didn't mention anything about land (as in, who initially controls them) and hence i assumed you meant the unoccupied lands of MCS (like the green color ones)Anyways, with other stuff like weapons, i believe the weapons of WWI and 1812 were basically the same... kind of non-automatic.. good range (trench ranges, normally a few hundred meters?) ... and uh.. well.. i guess the WWI weapons were more ... they had flamethrowers and tanks.. and uh, is Scott going to be using those uberweaponized blimps?? if yes, then i guess there should be some of uberpowerfull tanks as well.... and are the dragons allowed?

My Hunters will tank. Well, they'll turn into them. Viatax Sitadi Axdivijink Regigoraauk

[Osman Shahanshah]

I really should read up on you hunters.

[Osman Shahanshah]

WWI bolt action rifles - 1812 muskets; and while I am nostalgic for the Brown Bess I must plump for the rifles, they'll complement Elwynn's transportation Zeppelins better. I've currently no intention of fielding tanks - but if we encounter the beasties we'll jerryrig something to stop them. Edited by: Osman Shahanshah  at: 10/2/05 10:56

[Fax Celestis]

Sufficient to say, because of their magical capabilities, I'll be using a reduced number...say 2,500 of them instead of 5,000. But I'll also be giving them a ship, so they can actually get off their damn island.Oh, and their Wiki article. Viatax Sitadi Axdivijink RegigoraaukEdited by: Fax Celestis  at: 10/2/05 12:29

[Osman Shahanshah]

1. The war shall take place in all areas of Micras that are participating in the conflict. That includes any nations that choose to involve themselves besides Shireroth and all unclaimed land.2. The weapons for use on land in this conflict may be drawn from any era from the Medieval to contemporary modernity. Imaginative combinations of modern and antique shall be looked upon favourably. Magic may be employed by units of 2,000 men or less. Fantastical creatures are also permitted with the understanding that they are mortal and vulnerable to conventional weaponry regardless of their stated powers and abilities.3. Each belligerent participant shall be allotted a maximum of 5,000 men per unit. The strength per man shall be proportional to the total number of men in the unit at the start of the conflict. No unit shall be stronger than any other at the beginning of the conflict.4. The conflict shall cease if either of the original belligerent Duchies admits defeat, or the Kaiser of Shireroth declares it over.5. If the forces of Brookshire are victorious the city of New Kajar shall be destroyed. If the anti-Elwynn Coalition is victorious the city of Ardashirshahr shall be raised to the ground. In the event of a stalemate both cities shall survive. [Edit: Spelling corrected 'belligerent' and 'alotted'] Edited by: Osman Shahanshah  at: 10/4/05 14:01

Can Antica participate?

[Fax Celestis]

You're going to have to pick a side, but I don't see why not. Viatax Sitadi Axdivijink Regigoraauk

[stevenAntica]

I've been told that the Yardistanians are in need of great help.

[OctaviusMe]

I'd run that through spellcheck if I were you.

[extreme007]

question though (as a judge)... if the side with Antica was to lose, would they (antica) be ready to lose MCS land? Discover, Invent, Theories, Experiment,Advance Science,Advance Extremism,(in Karnali, Republic of)

There is no real war changes in this war. Just: If the Vengence side wins, Ardishirshahr is razed to the ground. If the Brookshire side wins, New Kajar is razed to the ground.

[stevenAntica]

We won't lose.And if we do...we don't have much land to lose. Also, look at how far away we are...we would probably have some punitive treaty stuff.

[OctaviusMe]

Question: What exactly is the technology level for this war?Someone said it's medieval, but then in here airships are mentioned. For whoever's running the airships, are they going to be sort of like fantasy-style airships something like:aow2.heavengames.com/aows...air_galleyBecause if they are, that could probably help settle the whole technology question that was going on before.
