    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]



 House Genesis is pleased to announce the peaceful assumption
 of those lands in central Tollus formerly held by The Normans.
 These lands are bordered on the east by our staunch ally
 The Dark Crusaders, and are bordered in the west by the lands
 held by Count Tajacu (as noted in a previous edition of the
 Times.)

 House Genesis publicly announces a policy of peace, in line with
 the tenets formerly expressed by the TIB Alliance.  Limited resource
 collection is permitted in coastal areas--please contact House
 Genesis in advance.  Please contact House Genesis prior to
 establishing any trade routes.

 Long live the Confederation.
