STOP PRESS! LAST MINUTE DRAMA ON PROVINIA! LOTC IS NO MORE!
Yes folks, that's right - we, the Lords of the Crown have become=20

alliance.
We have had some great tussles and enjoyed the last few years but the
challenge is gone - warring has become the sluggish lumbering of =
behemoth=20
armies since we explored all the possible tactics and our foes their
equivalent defences.
Most of our members are quitting and the remainders are becoming =
independent
factions or joining new alliances. We shall be completely withdrawing =
from
our lands on Provinia over the next several turns and there is an =
immediate
ceasing of the offensive against Rimmon. Prisoners will be released =
this

I must emphasise this is also a shock for myself and I cannot fully =
detail=20
where all remaining Lords are going or what they are doing since I have =
not
yet grasped it all myself.
We ask all parties particularly Rimmon Musketeers to allow us to =
reorganise
our resources among the remaining members and withdraw from Provinia =
over=20
the next 10 turns or so. We consider the war with Rimmon at an end. =
They=20
have no one fight but retreating nobles. We ask for no further garrison =
or
nobles attacks and the equivalent immediate withdrawal of all stacks=20
(e.g. Odysseus, Meglok, Scorn!) until at least turn 188.
Unfortunately this all came so suddenly yesterday that I have had no=20
opportunity to personally get in touch with the Rimmon leaders before =

I welcome and encourage their response and co-operation to facilitate =

break up with no further losses on either side.
Though of course we cannot dictate what happens to LotC lands we would =
