Tales of Tamar

Greetings,

I am writing this here and not in last wills, so that other Lords may see it also.

I am leaving my land since there is no point in me remaining.
And the reason is old lords. The gods didnt give us a border so that no old Lords can come.

And what did the old lords do? Instead of bringing us resources so that we could build up our little settlements, they brought armies and took the land. Heavy units of course.
And settlers.

This isle is so small that not even all lords who reside here can build a new settlement, so of course the old ones had to build here.

So, with the deepest loathing for the landgrabbing, disgusting filthy hogs that dare to call them rulers, I abdicate. My land will be free again in a matter of three quartals and will be for new lords that chose to stay. Not that I think that the old lords will honour my last will. More likely they will be offended and take my land after conviniently declaring war on a ruler that has already left.

With disgust,
Edmund Blackadder the second

due to popular demand in german:

Ich verlasse mein Reich da es keinen Grund gibt noch länger hier zu bleiben.
Der Grund für mein Verlassen findet man bei den alten Lords. Denn die Götter hatten uns weder eine schützende Grenze, noch ein Verbot der Landnahme für alte Lords gegeben.

Das Resultat war ja wohl klar. Anstatt das sie uns Resourcen brachten um unsere winzigen Dörfchen aufzubauen, kamen sie mit schweren Armeen und nahmen das Land. Und natürlich auch mit Siedlern.

Dabei ist diese Insel so klein das noch nicht mal jeder Bewohner eine zweite Stadt bauen kann.

Sie waren schon ein Jahr nachdem wir hier unsere Zelte aufgeschlagen haben hier...

Also, mit dem tiefsten Hass auf diese alten gierigen, nimmersatten Jammergestalten, die sich Herrscher zu schimpfen wagen, lege ich mein Zepter nieder und verlasse mein Land.
Es wird innerhalb von drei Quartalen unbesetzt sein und für andere neue Lords die sich entscheiden zu bleiben, bestimmt sein. Nicht das ich denke das sich die alten dran halten.

Mit Hass,
Edmund Blackadder der Zweite

Hallo Blackadder

Was ist los?
Was schriebst Ihr am 4.12. 7:14.

"Also kurz gesagt: Ich komme wieder und dann Gnade Euch Gott oder Wolfen, denn ich tue es nicht... "

Wir hoffen auf Euren Ihr macht weiter.

Elwim,

also grade Ihr müsst fragen. Werft Ihr doch Biffordicus vor er würde Euer Land annektieren. Er hat vielleicht grade mal 10 Morgen Land und Ihr landet neben seiner Stadt und fangt an zu annektieren...

Die ersten alten Lords waren hier in weniger als einem Jahr...

Aber ich versteh schon. Da Land zu nehmen ist so einfach wie einem Baby die Rassel zu klauen und das macht Ihr ja scheinbar gerne.
Oder wollt Ihr das wir neuen Lords um Land betteln was Ihr uns vorher vor der Nase geklaut habt und dazu noch Eure Vasallen werden?

Schöne Illusion, aber das tue ich mir und meinem Volk nicht an. Ich lasse mich doch nicht von so Leuten wie Euch demütigen.

Schönen Dank für Euer Antwort

Wir wollen mal die Worte eines anderen Lord gebrauchen
wenn Ihr uns anklagt Land zu besetzen.:

"Das ist übrigens die bewehrte "divide and conquer" Taktik. Wenn Ihr da raus wollt, müsst Ihr schon mir mir reden. Und bevor man etwas den Vasallen anbieten kann, muß man es erst mal irgentwo an sich reißen. "

mit freudlichen Gruß
Elwim

Ach wie schön, meine Worte werden gehört.

Mit dem kleinen Unterschied das ich mit anderen Lords im Wettstreit liege die zur gleichen Zeit ihr Reich gegründet haben...

Aber wenn Ihr schon auf die Worte eines ehemaligen grossen Reiches hört, dann noch ein kleiner Tipp. Baut noch ne Stadt dahin wo Ihr Land klaut wenn Ihr es noch nicht habt. Da werden sich die neuen bestimmt freuen.

BTW, ich gelte als böse. So sagen es jedenfalls andere und erklären mir den Krieg. Ihr seit doch angeblich Händler, also hoffentlich erklärt man jetzt Euch den Krieg. Denn so ein Händler ist ein leichtes Ziel für normale Lords. Auch wenn er Waffen bis zum abwinken hat, Leute sie zu benutzen hat er nicht.
Wieder eine Kleinigkeit aus Lucksis Buch...

Mit Gruß,
Lucksi

Hmm, was fällt mir dazu ein?

Ach ja: "LOOOOOOOSER!"

Godefroy,

you are unfit to service my chamber pot so kindly shut up.

Verfasst: **So Jun 06, 2004 12:22 am**

Ah, thats Blackadder as we like him.

Large mouth, nothing ...

...to talk about. Just a shaddow of himself.

Time for vengeance has not yet come. There was not enough time and space to overwhelm the new small lords with old wisdom. The squeaky little Lord faced his old faith and gave up immediately, without even to try. Its a shame. No one provoked him. No one attacked him. No one bothered him in any way. He just saw he would not have the chance to outbid all his neighbours at once. What a poor performace he gave.

But as the old saying goes: "Suckers gonna pay."

Verfasst: **So Jun 06, 2004 2:25 pm**

ah, yes, I can imagine that you would like my big mouth. After all, on the battlefield you got your ass roally kicked by my ancestor.

No doubt you took lots of his land after he had to leave, but when he was there, you counldn´t even conquer a coastal town even though you came with huge armies on ships.

Oh, and about shadows. If I were you, I would watch them. You never knows what lurks there (ok,if I were you I would put myself out of my misery after being the laughingstock on Tamar)

Oh, just give me two tenth of your realm (people, towns, weapons) and I wouldn´t just humiliate you in being able to resist your weak attemps at conquering, I would wipe the floor with you...

Speaking of poor performances, you speak from personal experience?

Attention all:

As I, Lord BiffordicusII, am the only local **NEW** Lord in the area I hearby claim ownership to all land previously owned by Lord Blackadder on his abdication.

I would like to share my misgivings and regrets that he is "jumping ship" as I believe we would have made good neighbours.

I will also be offering many a long prayer to the Gods that a magical barrier might in future be maintained around the lands of new lords because we simply have no opportunity to survive and flourish when the old lords can come in and take over land that should rightfully be fought over between Us.

The rich get richer, the poor get poorer. such is the sad state of affairs on Tamar, and here I was thinking this was the "great new land" our ancestors talked about when they bade us to flee from our desolate and barren (but once fertile) lands.

It is a sad day indeed.

Biffordicus the second, in mourning.

Once upon a time,
there were young Lords. Strong and proud.
They didn't fear to become a vasal in their young years,
so that the could grow and bloom without hassle.

Once upon a time,
there were young Lords. Strong and proud.
They worked hard for their money and earned respect.
They were free in mind and knew about cooperation.

Once upon a time,
there were young Lords. Strong and proud.
They did not flee the bigger lords,
instead they showed themself worthy to walk and even fight side on side with them.

Once upon a time,
there were young Lords. Strong and proud.
They became old Lords with real estate, money and respect.
And they got rid of the elder Lords because they deserved it.

BUT you, BlackAdder, are the weakest thing I've ever seen.
A feeble creature built from slimy excrement.
Nearly worthy to be something, children laugh at and spit on.
Nearly.

I'm not waiting to see you again, because it will be disapointing once again.
Go back, where you came from.
Go back into your gutter, where you were shat out by a rat in breech presentation.
No one will miss you.
No one will talk or even think about you next year.
Go...
... and die silent!

Kind regards,
Godefroy the Embalmed,
once been vasal of the great and unforgotten FoX,
once been vasal of the great and mighty emperor Skar,
now free and proud (and old and still alive).

PS:
Once upon a time there were also young Ladies. Strong and proud. And so they are now. But they didn't fit in the lines above.

Godefroy hat geschrieben:Once upon a time,
there was a princess. Young and lovely.
She was abducted by a fearsome dragon.
Then the dragon grilled her and that was it.

Once upon a time,
there were young Lords. Strong and proud.
They grew up and became old and stronger.
Some became wise, other stayed naive.

Once upon a time,
the old Lords stood for wisdom and honour.
Some of them anyway. Some were like Godefroy.
Who got their ass kicked on the battlefield time and again.

Once upon a time,
there was the concept of honour.
But joining a fight without reason cause the outcome
is clear, is that honourable?

Once upon a time,
there were young Lords. Strong and proud.
They had time to at least mount a minimal defence.
Before old Lords were allowed in the new land.

BUT you, BlackAdder, are the weakest thing I've ever seen.

Kind regards,
Godefroy the Embalmed,
who got his ass kicked by Lucksi,
who got his ass kicked by Blackadder the first,
who swayed like a weed in the wind to always get protected by bigger Lords,
now old and wrinkly and soon dead (hopefully)

PS:

Please run that part with the rat by me again. Understandable english or normal german will do...

Hey there, little one, leave me out of this. I´ve got enough problems on my own over here...
