Hi Fellow Atlantians, I am writting to clutter up the list once again with a simple request that I am giving once again. If you have nothing to do with the Jaca region then you may disregard this message. ------------------------------------------------------------------ Dear Jaca Assassins Guild, This is my second letter to you, but as yet I still have had no reply. You say to contact you via the players list, yet I have had no response. I urge you to contact me as soon as possible, for my poor and simple unit which has been labeled as being a threat to the society of Jaca, is nothing of the sort. I can assure you that I have nothing but good intentions for all that are within Jaca. It is a correct that I will in fact be a mage as of next turn, but as yet I am but a simple leader, with nothing but 5 silver to my name. Please Jaca Assassins Guild would you get in contact with me, for the fear that is going through my poor unit will drive him into a nervous breakdown at this rate. Please for my Units Sanity contact me.

It seems an ally of mine and I have been implicated in the latest Times for being the Jaca Assassin's Guild. This is the biggest load of crap I have ever read! I, being the owner of the Order of the Grey Wolf, have never owned a single stealth unit. Now explain to me how I could be assassinating anything. I know the person who is making these accusations is a member of the so-called Jaca Alliance whom I have discovered through experience to be a bunch of liars and thieves. I have a high level observer in Jaca who sees everything and I have witnessed several attempts at thievery by one particular unit belonging to a member of the Jaca Alliance. Every time I have contacted him about it, he has responded with threats of assassination. Here's a message for you and anyone else who thinks they're being sneaky: GO AHEAD AND TRY IT! I will laugh at your feeble attempts! My allies and I don't take kindly to this sort of slander. We consider the Jaca Alliance our enemies. We consider all who help or support them to be enemies. And anyone who opposes the them should contact me to discuss courses of action.

First I'm listed as a target of this so-called "Assassins Guild" . . . then I'm accused of _being_ it! I would love to hear what "proof" the sender of this message has that implicates my faction as a source of these threats. Since they chose the Times as his (or her?) medium, I suspect this is nothing more than unsubstantiated rumor-mongering. I am a Trade/Magic faction that has recently arrived in Jaca. Floyd (503) is a _mage_! Slaves (6834) are totally unskilled - I'm workinging them to support my mage. Unit (6835) is a group of carpenters producing wagons! Big threat! Look out, those five carpenters may go wild and kill everything in Jaca! Get _real_. Why would I intentionally induce a panic, scaring off potential customers for our wares? The uproar surrounding these petty messages has been bad for business. Now, because I have been listed as a target of this so-called "Assassin's Guild" I have become the target of every petty theif and assassin in the Jaca area - hoping to get something from me and the "guild" getting the blame. I have to waste my time and money on units to protect myself rather than on production. I don't own any units capable of assassination. I do not plan on owning any units with that capacity. It's a waste of my money to train an assassin only to have him spotted by some bozo with a Helm of OBS! You really want to know who is behind this "guild"? Take a look at the so-called "Jaca Alliance". Already we have caught them in acts of theivery in Jaca: > Frozen shade (5542) is caught attempting to steal from The Count's > Workers (6961). They have threatened us with (hollow) threats of assassination: > We have some observers level 4 and we expect level 5 in two turns. Our > assassims are able to assassinate a unit with steal 3 and less. For > now.... > > Zarya Guilde - Member of Jaca Alliance > --------------------------------------------------------------- > Jiri Klouda - Student of Faculty of Maths at Charles University > E-mail: klouda@novell.karlin.mff.cuni.cz Last time I checked, there were 8 factions in the "Jaca Alliance". One of them is named, appropriately, Thieves Guild (846). They have made no secret of their intentions to take over Jaca. Naturally, the first step is to drive (or scare) out as many of the factions as possible. The current paranoia surrounding Jaca plays directly into their hands. WE MUST NOT LET THE SUCCEED! To those of you that have been listed, I have a mage capable of producing helms of observation. In addition, I am allied with a faction with a high-obs unit in Jaca. Contact me and we will be more than happy to provide a means to foil their feeble attempts. I am dedicated to the continuation of _PEACEFUL_ free trade in the Jaca area. We must band together and prevent the fall of Jaca into chaos! To the "Jaca Alliance": I am _really_ sick of these tyrants who threaten without the ability to back their claims up. Stop using up bandwidth with these useless hollow threats! -Greg Chaix -Order of the Wandering Monk (Faction 762) <gchaix@ednet1.osl.or.gov> Up
