You can claim it, but you can't hold it
Woof Woof

                                        -- Ghosts [xg8]




    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]



Hear ye, hear ye!

Because of several misunderstandings concerning
the provinces the Duchy of Aquilonia claims, we
repeat our claim from Times no. 157 one more
time:

We claim the following area:
boxes cr35-dm46 and cw47-dm49
(btw: yes, that includes Sudshire [t91])

Travel is allowed in our territory but visitors
are to abide the following rules:

1. Announce your presence and intent.

2. All constructions, save castles, are
   allowed.

3. No opium dealing or theft.

4. Resources are free after a short note
   to the province owner

5. (Mad)dogs are to be leashed


Our land is scarred from the wars of the past.
Justice and peace shall return and upheld for
as long as we live.

On behalf of the Dukes of Aquilonia,

                                        -- Ammon [n060]



                                 Rumors



Ya Right, Joile, We belive you. Last time you
caught us unprepared, You died. Next time we
will be prepared, and again you will die. Heed
this warning, The Duchy is not your playground.
