Civilians? Your troops are obviously blind if they can't tell the difference between civillian workers and our Army Corps of Engineers.

Ha ha! Your troops are marching "unhindered", but soon enough, they will take another step and realize that they've fallen off the edge of the world!

BetaHound, as much as I'd like to burst your bubble ( ), keeping the fog of war in place is more important to me than trash-talking Vox.

P.S. BetaHound, I realize that some of my last remarks may be interpreted as somewhat offensive. I hope that you do not mistake them for such! I have no intention of offending anyone, and I apologize if I have.
I'll be more careful from now on.

It's that true? Please avoid the killing of civilians! Who will work the land (whoever is the winner) after the war ends? The rulling class needs someone to govern!

Well, I believe killing innocents is more of a glory than a shame on this unenlightened era... no UN and such... take your time before the coming of the BLlix!

Absolutely, civilian workers are paid, GS's Corps of Engineers are civilians whose family are held hostage to insure they "do their duty".

We are on the eve of battle (relatively speaking... GS is sure to hold the save forever )... and in the next few turns this trash talking will be a lot less fun for one or both our teams.

So the trash talking from me ends here. Good luck Vox, may you find honor (and the business end of a GS sword ) on the field of battle!

But don't be too hesitant - bring it on!

Oh, I just realized - we GS'ers don't have any gods, or religion... sure, we pray to the gods of the RNG on several occasions but we don't have any systematic religious rituals.
Perhaps we should carve an idol or something... I'll see what I can do with Photoshop tomorrow.

I almost let this part pass, but I've decided not to. Granted, Vox Controli forces have most definitely crossed into territory you had previously agreed would belong to us in our border treaty. But Voxian forces have yet to enter our cultural borders much less attack anything of value (aside from your assassination and scattering of our observer corps). When you're ready for something serious, our pike/catapult/war chariot welcoming committee will be waiting.

Ah, so GS has Feudalism now, does it? Makes it a little more interesting than Immortals slashing at WC's, Spearmen, and Swordsmen.

Do you guys have enough Gold to upgrade all your Spearmen on the front line.....With a GA, you probably would have it pretty soon if you don't have it all already.

I find it impossible to read such a message when it appears next to an avatar such as BetaHound's and still take it seriously.

If "whoever wins will end up giving the most biased briefing possible," and your briefing will be the truth, what does that say about who's going to win?

Ahhh, no, unfortunately for Vox, the infamous "Spear versus Tank" phenomenon is not relevant.

In this case, it is the well-known "Immortals get their butts kicked by WCs" rule that shall apply.
