Your kingdom

you have a guy prepping one of my KDs cities, a city that was here before you guys spread south, rectify the situation
You (5/7/2014 3:33:39 PM)
that city was built after I talked to you about not building north as was Third, they are both well beyond the line even if I give you all the nomans land between our kingdoms. which I unilaterally decided to do to ease the friction. Both of those cites are being removed - note am personally not taking any cites unless they put up a fight. Am not gaining anything from this, its for you guys to learn not to behave badly, its simple and age-old part of a NAP to ask before building in other kingdom areas. Do this next time, then this sought of stuff dosent happen. hamish

edroll,beer , sernelios and icerest were all built after our nap and are clearly in POOF territory, i let this slide as you did with Third, removing any poofs cities will force my hand and i shall be removing the listed cities in response.
You (5/7/2014 4:41:39 PM)
You sead earlier that the border was Dark Cave and I have given you sting and argonath as they were captured and not built and Val mini which was built.  beer was captured and the other two city's are well within the border you agreed earler. Now don't take the piss and it will all end well. I would like to free up my Naz army am keeping down there to go fight MAD, can we leave it at this? Hamish Dark Prince Stirlin (5/7/2014 4:32:28 PM)hostile action against my KD will be seen as a declaration of war. You (5/7/2014 4:43:02 PM)The city's are being removed - do you wont war?

You "gave" me the towns in our core? Dont make me laugh. It takes more than claims from one side to make an agreement. The cordial thing to do is share a core with your allies, especially if they are the only thing standing between you and destruction. You do NOT set up a border without your partners consent, start sending threats and attempt to badmouth them on the forum.

Guessing hamish NAPed everyone and is bored. 

Just to make that official and clear I gave 24 hour notice of the cancellation of the NAP between BF and Poof (and Zion as this was by Poof). To make this clear, any large army's crossing our borders or any prepping on our cites will be considered termination of this time. 

Stirlin its almost that you haven't been taking any notice for 3 weeks, Have been telling you point blank that the cites would be removed for a week and you are surprised? That would make you very obtuse or a propagandist. Can you see the army's heading to our borders, I can. Am not going to say anything more here as its boring me.

My scouts are simply marking the border. Kindly remove anything south fo the new boundaries.

It is interesting that there was no attempt to remove the cities while binh still had his rather large army in the area.

I'm pretty sure it was war since the moment you decided it'd be a brilliant idea to take our cities.

Stirlin showing his true colours as a bully. Pushing smaller KDs into a corner, threatening them, encroaching on their land, then running to the forums to cry when finally somebody stands up and says enough is enough.

Leave the diplomacy to your betters Stirlin. Far too arrogant as the msgs Hamish posted above show.

I thought rainbowing your city didn't matter anymore. It doesn't, right?

Rainbowing matters less nowadays(especially in the beginning of the era), but it still matters.  And Teirdel is wrong, the further from a mountain you are the more mines u need for miningbonus, lumbermills wont cut it.

gogo arma ^^

There's always next era!

Cant wait for it to restart. ^^

I showed up -- you baked a razor blade into the cookie you gave me.  :-(
