Only for Eugene V. DebsI can hold the narrow isthmus unless Persia sends reinforcements, but advancing further will be difficult, so an attack by you could really help. Only for Kliment Jefremovitš VorošilovOkay, let's do this then. Where would you like me to attack to specifically? Only for Eugene V. DebsThe coast few kilometres west of Potidaea is probably a good spot if we want to link up (which probably is wise against the bigger Persian army). |

Only for Kliment Jefremovitš VorošilovAlso out of character: As you may have seen, I didn't exactly receive Loki's offer with great warmth. I don't want the game to be "everybody gang up on Persia". Although historically it would make more sense for me to ally with other Greeks, my idea was to align with Carthage or the Etruscans to create a viable third faction. - Any further thoughts? |

Only for Manfred von Richthofen and Eugene V. DebsI think it's now time to attack Persian garrisons in Thracia. Also, if you don't mind, I'd declare war on Boeotia because 1. They sought friendship with Persia. 2. It would start a new war which would make the RP more interesting. For Eugene V. Debs and Kliment Jefremovitš Vorošilov Okay. Can I declare war on Boeotia too? I need to secure Corinthia from any Boeotian-Persian attack. If all of you agree I'll be sending 1/3rd of my troops (10K) to siege Patras.
Anyway, should I send my own troops (I'll send 7.5K troops to Potidaea as reinforcements if you agree that I should send reinforcements) to help in occupying the city? (Potidaea) |

(Potidaea) Only for Manfred von Richthofen and Kliment Jefremovitš VorošilovI agree. The only thing is, Patras is in the Achaean region, not in Boeotia, as the map shows. So, I think you might not have meant Patras.  |

Although historically it would make more sense for me to ally with other Greeks, my idea was to align with Carthage or the Etruscans to create a viable third faction. - Any further thoughts? Only for Theron of AcragasYep, I agree with that. At the beginning of the RP I really hoped that it wouldn't be an all against Persia setting, and it luckily hasn't really been. A third faction in Italy would've been nice, but I allied with Athens right at the beginning so that would've become 100% a "all gang up on Persia".
Also, although the RP has only started, I think you can already apply to the RP Enthusiasts if you want. |

15,000 Infantrymen and 5000 cavalry are sent to Olynthus, so as to secure the rear of my army near Potidea. They are expected to arrive in Olynthus in 6 posts. |

Another 50 triremes are being sent to enforce the blockade. These will arrive there in 6 posts. |

Only for Eugene V. Debs and Manfred von RichthofenThe Persian navy intends to isolate my army in Potidaea. With local numerical superiority and the element of surprise we could crush the Persian fleet there and allow more reinforcements to arrive. |

Only for Darth Revan_The kings of Volterra, Populonia, Vulci and Perusia send their greetings to the Thessalians. We ask you to join our struggle against the Persian invaders, against which the great Thessalian cavalry could be of much help. |
