Britons speak,

To Welsh,

I hope my support this fall helps out and that my proposal has been thought over and either accepted or re-formulated to an acceptable solution for you. To this end, I have no intent to go further north than Cel, unless you ask me to.

To Scots,

I hope that you also have pondered my offer and that this fall gives a response.

To Frisians,

I'm sorry I decieved you - again, but I had to go somewhere.

To Danes,

Hol and Rhe for me and the others for you?

To Saxons,

I need instructions for Eng and for how you want to proceed in this game as a whole from this point on.

Frisians to all: Looks like this was it for me. Good game everyone. Enjoyed playing

Britons: Feel free to pick up the Saxon pieces.

<?xml:namespace prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-comffice:smarttags" />Wales: A good idea, but I think I'm going to make some progress against the Saxons while I can. I think the Picts are doomed but I am not too keen on that Scottish army heading South so let me know what I can do.

- Angles

Britons, the Saxons are secure, and I am on board for making the Irish fond memories. The Scot With No Press (one exception) is in a great situation, and more power to him. As you can see, I am moving away from a defensive position with you, and would appreciate space from you as well. Ker is yours - if I get into St. this turn and you need the support, I'll give it to you. I'd appreciate your help if needed vs Dub, and we'll see what happens with Arm. Pressuring the Scots around the other side may be a good idea at the time.

Angles, I assume you're covering Yor. I'm sending an army up, and intend to give the Scots some opposition this game. If there is an attack on the Scots in the fall which you are in position to support, I would appreciate it.

Saxons, I agree that setting up a defensive perimeter is the first order of business. Let's see what the Britons do. If we're headed toward a quick three out and on to round two, great. If this game continues, we can discuss what to do down the road.

Danes, you may want to think about the fact that by the time you're ready to raid the east coast, there will be no room for you to do so. The Norse will be in your way, or trying to be. Heading north may make more sense.

-Wales

Saxons to Angles/Welsh: I do hope that my moves from last turn were not unnoticed. I am assuming that A Sta gets disbanded and we can move forward now. I suppose both PRESS and results will let me know.

Norse press.... To Scots, come on..stay west and I stay east and we are both happy. To Picts, are you Trout? Trout like moves...... To Danes, remember my loyalty in not stabbing you while you were vulnerable.
