Subject: PCP defeat

Folks, I am happy to report that the PCP has been dealt a defeat in Jaca.

The Mojo A'Djinn alliance is responsible for a battle that took place in
42,32 and we pounded the living daylights out of the PCP.

The truth is that after all of their bluster, they only are holding their
towns with com 1 and com 2 troops as their silly little war with the RoR has
bled them dry.

The word on the street is that they are looking to portal in a few good men
who would then live under their thumb and rules.  If you are approached by
the PCP to fight against us and want to do yourself a favor, think it
through.  The PCP are not known for either their honor or their word and in
this world, if you cannot count on either of those two things you can't
count on anything.  As far as those who ally thmeselves with the PCP, well
mistakes happen, don't they?

For those of you who are interested in such matters, the M.A.D. do keep
their word.  Ask around, even Janice, who came to me with treachery in mind
and requesting that I sink a blade in the heart of my alliance, will have to
tell you that I dealt honestly with her and never hid our intentions, to
whit:  To rid this land of Scum (TM by the PCP) and make them pay for the
massacre of untold civilians in Jaca.

To those of you who have given unstintingly of your support and training -
thanks.  We owe you and we will remember and repay thricefold.

For those of you who have re-started the game and now are in a position to
gamble again, give me a write.  I promise you that if you are interested in
the simple things in life, like revenge, we can make it happen for you.

And now, for your reading enjoyment...

I did not ask him to "sink a blade into the heart of his alliance"
I said "Make peace and perhaps we will spare your worthless lives"
You were offered a choice:  to live in peace and serve your betters or die
futile horrible deaths. Alas, your misplaced pride has doomed you and your
allies to utter extinction. Quarter shall be given to niether man, woman or
child.

Pounded the living daylights???? What 124 loses?? The PCP deal in tens of
thousands of men, and millions of silver (yes millions)!!!

We don't care for your miserable little alliance with it's miserable little
victories.

Anyone foolish enough to get in our way will be clensed from Atlantis.

Only the great God Geoff himself holds higher authority...

P.S. Ershwin knows nothing of the earth phenomena known as 'Christmas', but
on this Chrismas day, I would like to wish everyone (even Ershwin's enemies)
a Merry Xmas! Feliz Navidad to our Spanish friends also!
