Testy are we Demonslayer?
aghhem *clears throat*
On page 2 of issue 2 at the bottom of the first column of "An Unlikely Heir", it states, and I qoute,
"... Even in times such as these, Kurt knew that at least the apperance of legitimacy was required. Stirland could not simply march in and take Ostermark, not even to liberate it from the influence of Talabecland. No, an heir must be found to the long-extinct Stienhardt line. Miraculously, an heir was indeed found. and from amongst the distant relations of Graf Martin himself..."
Awefulluy convienant that Graf magically finds himslef a "legitimate" heir to the formor Elector Count, huh? And one who he is related too, wow imagine the luck. Oh, and it was Sigmar no less that slew that particular blood line, I wonder why.
Graf Martin was crowned by the Grand Theoginist of a god who has almost completely abandoned his worshippers for what they have done. And all through out this Middenland has mearly protested, obviously to keep the peace. In addition Graf Martin is rather resented by the Ostermark populace because of his dis-tasteful and reckless use of their last standing force, in which he simply used them as a force that would die to the man in order to soften the undead lines a little, what a great genral.
Martin's so called political means of ending this conflict have still not stopped him from commiting troops to the fight, and indeed coming to blows with their fellow citizens the Talabeclanders. And no where in the newsletter do I see it saying anyhting about Middenland's supposed desire to the innocent lass, no I'm sure Graf will manage that quite nicely once he has no more use for her. I would also like to point out that Middenland did not deign to enter the fray untill after the opposing factions had aggresivly advanced on Bechafen, at that point we believed it was time to stop the madness.
Read the qoute on page 3 of issue 4, it says "Middenland has become united and prosperous at a time when most provinces are wracked with rebellion and lawlessness", we only wish to include the chaotic Ostermark in that shield of order and success, is that so wrong?
On the religous note, no Middenlander would ever consider a Talabeclander one of his own, we have ALWAYS co-existed on this front, we have always had and desired peace with the Sigmarites. And yes, it makes sense that Sigmar would stop worshipping Ulric upon his accention to deity-hood, but it also makes sense to say that Sigmar would retain his relationship with the winter god, albeit though at a more equal playing filed.
Poking fun at each other is part of the game, it's all done in good spirits.
I do not question your intellegence, after all, it is rather difficult to get a straight answer out of dirt
.
Game on...
