The honorable Indian empire wishes to decry the disgusting acts of the villianous Broker empire. Their ambassadors have been expelled and we hope they will change their despicable ways and once again return to the full fellowship of honorable civilizations everywhere.

To launch nuclear weapons at a peace loving city that posed no threat to their own country eclipses a low so low as to be below pigs wallowing in their slop.

Trustworthy civs everywhere must unite to stop the horrifying actions of the Broker empire and their axis of evil.

axis of evil.

Aw, now you lumped me in with Iran & North Korea!

[Munro]

To supreme ruler Regoarrarr of the oppressed peoples of India, on behalf of the peace loving people of the Socialist Khanate of Holy Rome:

Your latest research into the dangerous science of atomic energy is a direct threat to the balance of global power. On behalf of peaceful nuclear states everywhere, we have been forced to take some appropriate preventative measures.

Love, your friends at the Axis of Evil

Could have fun with this play the imperial march theme or make references to the Holy Rome resurrecting some of it Borg ancestry but ....

The High Lord of the Broker Empire takes umbrage at being categorized as part of the axis of evil. We were in negotiations until the last moments to try to avert the necessary preemptive strike on a project designed to bring dangerous nuclear technologies into the control of a nation that orchestrated a sneak attack on our borders. The balance of power must be maintained. Our hands are tied in this matter by your actions.

I heard rumor of some sort of nuclear limitation treaty being bandied about. But I did not receive any proposals, so I have been forced to assume that there is no offer on the table.

I remain interested in listening to any proposals out there.

Hi all,

I'm sorry guys but I don't feel it is fair if I continue to play in this game when I am not 100% committed to it.

To be honest, it is very difficult to come into a game so developed with its entrenched alliances and the such like. It has never really felt like it is 'my civ' and as such, doing turns has become more of a chore than a pleasure.

With the position my civ is in, it would be massively unfair and possibly game-breaking if I was to gift my cities away or just give up playing and get steamrolled. I want someone to come in and takeover and run things through to the end. The diplomacy is pretty much out of the way for the forseeable future and is not too great to handle for someone keen to do this game - and my civ is not involved directly in a full on conflict, so you are not thrown into the deep end!

From my time in the game, I have too much respect for the guys who have put so much effort into the game to let it be spoilt by me not being committed to the endgame.

I will continue to do the turns until a replacement is found, to prevent a further pause to the game.

The Shady Expanse acknowledges the generosity of the peace treaty offered by Lords Munro and Broker. Yet we will never forget that you began this war with a nuclear strike against a civilian target, and that your tactics have shown neither honour nor restraint - as witnessed by the thousands of our citizens who have died in their homes while your weapons of terror explode around them.

So despite the destruction and radiation spewing from your empires, despite the massing dogs of war which I am promised could destroy us: we will fight on.

We believe that your warmongering leaders have chosen unwisely. We will see this to fight to its end, whatever that may be.

I have promised nothing of the sort . I offered you peace and you spurned it.

Never forget that it was Persia who wanted this war, began this war and continues to pursue this war. You amassed the largest army this world has ever seen on the eve of your attack and clearly stated your intentions. We are a peaceful nation with the world's smallest standing army - less than a tenth your size! You left us with no choice, and have only the cowardice or lack of foresight of your generals to blame for garrisoning them in a civilian town on the eve of the attack. We acted with a heavy heart but the blood is on your hands.

Our army may be small, but as long as you continue to pursue this war against us, we will have no choice but to continue to strike with the full force and commitment of the resources available to us, against your warmongering nation and those who support you with weapons and technologies.

Remember that you chose this fight and we continue to stand ready to end it. Fight on if you insist, but do not seek to paint us as the aggressors. Our offer of peace remains open.
