PRESS

Britons speak,

To Saxons,

As stated, I had to withdraw my support to furhter my own ends and not start a fight with Angles. I wish it had turned out otherwise.

To Welsh,

Agreed, one more fleet coming up to flank the Scots on the west of <?xml:namespace prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-comffice:smarttags" />Ireland. Consider convoying Dam to Wex; I will support that this spring.

To Danes/Norse,

As stated, the support to Danes was given as to allow him a channel thrhough which he can affect the game. I find it extremely doubtfull he will attack you or me. Also, good job on rubbing out the Frisians, two more to go now.

To Angles,

I'm rethinking my dmz proposal, I'd like to set up a defensive perimiter of Str and Hoe, possibly Bai as well. Not wishing conflict with either you or the Danes at this point, hence a series of static supports there should discourage any such thoughts.
<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-comfficeffice" />

Britons: I think a DMZ of Tha is unhelpful unless you DMZ Hoe too, and that wouldn't make much sense either. Better I stay in Tha and you stay in Hoe and we support each other. However, a DMZ of Str makes sense to me. Shall we? I'll be moving out of Sus with my fleet so as not to threaten Wig.

Danes: We are in a good position to coordinate and a bad position to attack each other. If you have any ideas of heading north you can count on my help.

Wales: I'll be moving Dur to Bor, support if you can. Thx! I'd like to disband a southern army to build a fleet if possible. Perhaps next year I can move to Glo in the Spring and then you can dislodge me in the Fall so I can remove it?? If you'd rather not I completely understand. Let me know and we can plan it for 857.

- Angles

Saxons, there's nothing else you could have done. Good game.

Britons, agreed on your last message. If the Irish disband Wex, feel
free to pressure Con. If the Irish don't disband Wex, then please
support St.-Wex.

Angles, if the Scots are still in Bor, and Dur has nothing better to
do, then please order Dur S Cum-Bor. If you have a better idea, let
me know. I would also like Sus if you take Ken, as I believe that was
earmarked for me in exchange for supporting you for several turns. If
you don't agree, let me know.

Irish, I'll be going after Dub, but if you can't hold Arm on your own
after this turn, I'll make sure you hold it long enough to make the
final seven.

-Wales

Viking Raiders!!!!!!!!!

Norse press. to Scots. Stay on west side west otherwise I will come west. to Welsh. Reclaim those lands stolen from you by the Anglosaxons. to Angles. Trying to turn the Danes against me is not the best way to persuade me not to storm down the coast. Danegeld might have made me want to go over the top.

END PRESS

Final Statement by Frisians.
Derek says:
Good game everyone good luck going forward (except to the Danes and Brits). I was clearly hoping to do much better but things just didn't work out. The Danes and I went head to head right off both going for each other completely. However his neighbor to the north kept better relations with him than my nieghbor to the south and once I was attacked two sides everything crumbled.
