     ANNOUNCEMENT:

     The Brotherhood of Shao-Lin has inherited the
     territory of the Invisible Order. The full territory
     of the Brotherhood of Shao-Lin now covers :

       CR35-CW39
       CV40-CW41
       CX35-DC42

     Peace and prosperity,
     Brotherhood of Shao-Lin

                       -- Brotherhood of Shao-Lin [ew7]




    To All Factions:
    The continent of Camaris is an active war zone.
    Any noble there is liable to attack without warning.

    In particular, any noble not present at the express invitation
    of the Foriegn Minister of the Crimson Dragons is considered by the
    Crimson Dragons to be a hostile noble, and will be attacked without
    warning.  Express invitation means that he will say, "Come to this
    place and do this thing now."  All offers to join the Crimson Dragons
    or to attack our supposed enemies are rejected unless specifically
    approved by our Foriegn Minister.  If he doesn't say Yes, then he
    probably means No.

    It is not our desire to attack neutral or "newbie" factions, we
    consider that a waste of valuable noble-days, but we are at war
    (which we also consider a waste of vaulable noble-days), despite
    our desires to the contrary, and as such we will fanatically defend
    the integrity of our claimed lands.  We regard any entry to Camaris
    by any means as an invasion.

    Uninvited guests will be regretfully hunted down and killed.

    I hope the preceding is clear and to the point, and I regret the
    need to post this so often.

      Speaking for the Crimson Dragon Ministry of Internal Security,

                                       -- Cudgel [9129]



 Lords and Ladies of Olympia,

 We wish it to be known that we the Lords of the Crown seek an end to
the
 tiresome and costly war with Rimmon on Provinia. Though our initial
offer
 has been rebuffed by Maltar we are hopeful of fruitful negociations.

 We are however disappointed that Maltar's stance may be too
obstinate to
 allow engagement of further talks. Namely the insistance that the LotC -
 Rimmon conflict is directly tied to the LotC/CD - PLATO conflict. For us
 it is not. Maltar insists that the Rimmon - LotC war will not end unless our
 dispute with PLATO also ends.

 We do not wish to see further Rimmon castles destroyed and
resources
 decimated because Maltar is 'in bed' with an ally whose months
remaining
 on Olympia are few. The LotC will not forget past hostilities performed
by
 our arch-rivals PLATO, this one shall be to the end. We ask Rimmon to
 respectfully bow out of this private matter.

 Maltar has also been warned that the longer the war between us
remains our
 advantage will grow greater and our settlement demands ever more
 stringent.

 Speaking for the Lords of the Crown,

                                  -- Lord Prakis [t119]



My dear Mr. Regent of Sudshire,

the Duchy of Aquilonia welcomes your concept of a save
haven with a free library for all. Alas, most of the territory
you claim has already been claimed by us several turns
ago (ref. Times 157) or has been in the hands of the Lords
of the Crown.
Unfortunatly, we can't spare any space for your promising
enterprise on our lands and hereby ask you again to look
for another place for it (rumor has it that the island of
Atala i.e. is a most beautiful place with lot's of peaceful
inhabitants like yourself).
Well, and if you can't see our point clearly yet and leave,
you force us to react as peacefully as your very peaceful
arrival in the Duchy with your 300 elite troops and your
most peaceful claim of our territory.

for the Duchy of Aquilonia,


                                        -- Ammon [n060]
