I am sure it has some good explanation, but how can the mongols be sure that peasants won't steal them?

ohh c'mon ;)

I bet the lands there are rather remote, peasants just don't hang around, especially not with such close proximity to Tartar lands. Anyway, Podolia was a constant target of Mongol raids, nothing new here :)

Glad you're all enjoying it. Nice thing about being the Horde - there isn't a lot of info, so I can sort of make up what I want. Also, I can be pretty alien to the Europeans. The flags have a reason. We shall see if it is ever revealed.

The flags are on the borders, though, not outside of Tartar lands.

so Prince's scouts have noticed, but still, perhaps they were checking the fords and looking for new, safe crossings? who knows heh

anyway, I would edit the Poles out and add Podolians or Ruthenians, there aren't too many Poles there hehehe

What does planting of flags mean anyway? Or is it some novelty?
I know what Vosh is thinking. He's on a Lady Bird Johnson trip, trying to beautify the steppe. Those flags are there because they're purty. :)

Exactly. "Oh, those steppes are just so dreary, what you need, love, is some flags! Big, beautiful gold flags. Oh, they'll just look darling along that riverbank!"

What time is that on, CST? I've heard good things about the yurt segment.

Yeah, but I don't mind if there's confusion as to who he is. He's very old, and unfortunately you that's going to be apparent in his posts. Mostly he just likes to repeat himself and reminisce. ;)

laying claims to the lands :)

Naw, Mongols don't conquer much. They mostly raid, pillage and enslave. Such are nomads, they have all the grazing ground they'll ever need already. :)

EDIT: Ha! I'd watch out Vosh, there are Poles hiding in every bush! :eek: :D
