On 28th RHY begun scouting cities of most our members in Keppen.
Next day Neytiri sent them first mail after their "blackmail": "tournament Sent By: Neytiri [Absa] Received By: Indeva State [RHY] Date: 29 Sep 2012 06:55 Good den to the Lord Indeva State, I write to thee with humble biddings amidst this time of foreboding unrest. I know that your ill intent toward our kind alliance is fraught with anger and an attitude – nay, an altitude of entitlement that we ne’er could reach with the tallest of ladders in all Illyriad. Tho while we are well apprised of your feelings in this matter -- however unjust methinks they be – our alliance bids you pause for the duration of the upcoming tournament. We may commence with your hostilities -- be they as unfounded as a tent -- after the tournament concludes if you so wish to continue. We would rather prove our own altitude on Illyriad’s final tournament roster. . . and judge that you would, too. . . though, I caution, you will lose that contest, too. So, unless you are too afraid (or too dim witted) to match your alliance against ours in a legitimate Illyriad tournament, we propose a respite in thy plans for war. What say you, Indeva State? You doubt me? The Noble Sir Finrod can vouch for my stout heart! I will count your actions against our colleagues Messer and Hugie as an answer, though I beg thee to be brave and prove wrong the unbridled rumors of your cowardice! In patience, The Lady Neytiri " We were already heavily engaged in Dark Harvest tournament. Latelly we fell a bit but still high you consider our current diplomatic stance in Illy http://elgea.illyriad.co.uk/#/World/Tournaments still better than H?, which make us pride :) |

You can see that Messer's army sent to occupy Trove mine was defeated by Deimos. RHY got so upset that we received demand to punish Messer by ourselves and pay them 30 M gold. They tried to present it as personal dispute between greedy Jefke and RHY, like Jefke is some neutral player
They said: " trove mine demanded by jefke. 2 squares from hamsun of skb. offered to relinquish this deposit if that player objects to the occupation. so far no IGM from hamsun. no occupation at this moment." http://elgea.illyriad.co.uk/#/World/Map/-403/-184 So RHY denied Boars the right over this mine because Hamsun didn't respond to their mail, and didn't occupy it with army On 27th another demand from RHY: Absa must pay 70 M by 30th September, alternatevely expel Messer and Hugie so they can deal with them. I can not find those battle reports, would apreciate if someone can post them. As I remember, Messer's army was destroyed again and RHY kept the mine... |

Forgive me for creating new topic on same subject, I want to use same privilege as RHY Press office had in securing first page, so my words wont get lost in that weed they planted. Hope Luna will close it before growing into 50 pages...
Every war have a uzrok and povod ( motiv in english, I found one word for both, but is not the same), forgive my poor English... I'll try to explain past events as Absa and Boars see it happened: There were several examples when RHY cried foul if SkB even approached one of their occupied squares even if it is dozens of squares from their nearest city. Since we are their friends and had tiffs with RHY too, SkB asked for a concerted diplomatic effort by both of our alliances to let RHY know that their behaviour is unacceptable. They were getting the feeling that RHY is trying to take advantage of them as a smaller alliance, and if we both confront them it might get better results. On 6th Aug we heard from Alti that Deimos (RHY) was occupying two squares immediately adjacent to smaller towns in their alliance. SkB began talks, and were essentially breaking them off because they thought they add legitimacy to the occupations, The step following this is the dramatic one of claiming that they will have troops arriving at a certain time - recall troops before then. Policy of accepting such an occupation is inviting future abuse. Opinion has hardened against the time-sharing proposal, on the grounds that the current occupations were illegitimate and rotating occupations likewise. Latest events prior to escalation: On 11th Aug negotiations have
switched from being between Yearick and Alti to Finrod and Buridan.
Finrod had emphasised that he wants RHY and SkB to get along well as
neighbours, and expressed exasperation at the whole rare resources
debacle. On 17th Aug we heard that Alti is still in negotiations with Finrod over the grapes outside her town. On 18th Aug Alti told me that Finord is around and still reasonable, but he's tied up with RL. She was negotiating with Deimos and Yearick, when she issued a sort of ultimatum, Finrod was roused and discussions started to go somewhere. She proposed a reciprocal rule saying that SkB wont settle in the 5x5 square centered around any of their sovs, and they agreed to respect their 7 square rule. Then on 19th Sep we received update from Buridan about another incident of aggression by RHY in putting armies on mines near their cities. In this case Jefke had occupied a mine for quite some time and was away for a couple of days when the army returned to its city. Deimos, as usual, jumped at the opportunity to occupy the square: Information Gathered: Harvestable Resource Square Information: 2500 Iron remain. Harvestable Resource Square Information: 63 6 remain. Troop levels present, foreign reinforcements: Type: Unit: Quantity: Deimos's forces from Minas Mukchuk Army: Siege Corps Division: Demolition Men Commander: Mystery Orc?? Death Pack 1 Troops: Kobold Cohorts 370 Troops: Clan Guardsmen 370 Troops: Death Dealers 369 dave83's forces from Valles Marineris Army: Resource Procurers Division: It was vacant when i sent them Commander: Sir Roger Valles Charioteer 1 Troops: Militiamen 500 Troops: Pikemen 672 Troops: Longbowmen 699 Troops: Men-at-Arms 205 Jefke felt frustrated by this and as latest scout report showed only about 2-3k troops on the square. On 20th Aug expediton from Westley in Turalia was sent from Messer's account and RHY leadership was informed. Same daywe received we received update from Buridan: "RHY's leadership has decided that Deimos should give the mine back to Jefke so there isn't any immediate cause for conflict." They lost on 25th
Despite your troops' defeat, word reaches you concerning the defenders' forces in this battle.
This was first blood between us.... phew  ...will continue when I find more timeEdited by Grego - 14 Oct 2012 at 17:34 |
