OOC: Not officially yet, no. But a rebellion broke out in the Cape Colony that I recognized, and now Doom's setting out to put my head on a pike.

**Thandros** · 24-03-2012 18:22

OOC: Does Doom even need a reason to put a potential enemies head on a Pike?

OOC: Didn't Frymonmon say that any war against you or the Zulu would end up like Isandlwana?

**Frymonmon** · 24-03-2012 18:24

I took that back after Seek proclaimed he supported the Cape Colony.

And the Zulus are helping Transvaal.

**Seek75** · 24-03-2012 18:25

OOC: Hrm...Gurkhas vs. Impis...

**Frymonmon** · 24-03-2012 18:28

There will be no Gurkha's outside India until the 1900s.

OOC: Hawaii, Tibet, China......

**Seek75** · 24-03-2012 18:29

OOC: Well then all I have to worry about are horribly trained and ultra-demoralized Brits.

**Thandros** · 24-03-2012 18:30

OOC: IT could be rather close a Boer war. British will likely not have enough troops to suppress the entire revolt without compromising there Defences against the Communists and Irish. Britain could not be more vulnerable. Unless there was a Second Indian Mutiny or some kind of revolt in India.

Tibet and China are connected to India.

Hawaii was undertaken by British regulars.

OOC: the currency markets should be pretty interesting over the next few turns.

OOC: There is no war with Transvaal until Seek declares it.

And Thandros, please stop making these ridiculous statements. I don't need advice, especially not from you.

As for my orders, are they really that critical? I mean, a Boer war update probably wouldn't even include that much. Ill send my orders in today or tomorrow, but Im not really sure such a minor war warrants a special update. Id much rather read an ACW, 7 Years War Refight or even a Triple Alliance update.

**Seek75** · 24-03-2012 20:27

OOC: Oh, fine. Be that way. Just brush off the Boers as unimportant. That's fine.

Just remember your idleness and your lack of action when the Draka have taken over half the world...

**DoomBunny** · 24-03-2012 20:31

OOC: Well, like it or not, the Cape conflict is pretty much bottom of all the conflicts going on right now. I cant think of one less important really, except maybe Persia.

Besides, Fry would likely rather write about the ACW, and I would certainly love to read another ACW update, as they are juicy and full of mass slaughtery goodness.
