My spelljammers will not interfere with the attempt to take the crashed spaceship. In fact they have been recalled to secret bases in the pomarj for refitting and fresh crews.

Mine need to be refitted also.

A missive comes from the war-torn lands to the south:
"For the goodwill of the Dark Union, Acererak is willing to let 1 in 6 of the civilian population of Irongate flee into Ahlissa, if the God-Emperor declares himself satisfied with Kevellond cooperation. The others are his prize."

Also, Acererak and the Scarlet Brotherhood share technology with all the factions who have declared to share it with them.

Furthermore, word is spread that, in case the inhabitants of the City of the Gods awake, all our allies intend to express their utmost helpfulness in guiding them towards the one responsible for interrupting their rest.

Edena:

I will ask my allies to call off the attack. Maybe we can arrange a truce.

Serpenteye: I need to talk to the player who controls the Iron League. For now, I am working on peace.(I just e-mailed Gnomeworks. It is Saturday night here in North America, so he may be out.)

Maudlin, you heard Serpenteyes.
He says he will give the people of Irongate safe passage out of there if the Kevellond League makes peace.
And that means, you will have to stop attacking Irongate ... or will you??

I said as many as could escape. We do not interfere in the conflict directly. We make no move against the forces of Acererak or the territories that he has claimed. We do not "play Raul Wallenberg"

There you are, Serpenteye, William.

Acererak has generously allowed that 1 out of every 6 people in Irongate will be spared, and he gets to devour the other 5 in 6.
Acererak, I am sure, thinks that he's compromising quite a bit ...

While the drow and the Kevellond League are trying to make up their minds whether or not:

The Baklunish will cease attacking the mountains
The Crescent will cease attacking the mountains
The Drow will attack the robots or not attack the robots
Whether a peace will be agreed to

The robots are entering Veluna. The horror of Bissel, is about to be repeated, on a grand scale.

To Mellkor, and Everyone else

I propose the following to end our impasse. You wish our assistance. We wish Greyhawk and the Domain there of. So have the following proposal:

The battle situation is calming now. We the IBKCS will move our forces, which you no doubt have noticed massing on your border, into defense position there. This should allow you to pull back within “the shield” our troops provide. We have non-aggression treaties with all those forces on your western front; hopefully they realize it is in their best interest to not attack our forces. This will allow EVERYONE on that front to disengage safely.

Then you would:

1. Clean up the mess you made. While Iuz personally loves what you have done with the place, his worshippers need to eat and the current situation is no good. We will provide any assistance you need with this effort.

2. Any shade beings or forces not needed for the clean up effort will begin to evacuate to Urnst.

This will allow an end to the hostilities with no one having to trust the other.

Iuz the Peacemaker :)

I have contacted Darkness who is playing the Baklunish. I have asked them to call off the attack.

I cannot speak for Gnomeworks. Or my allies without their express permission. I have contacted Gnomeworks and Alyx.

I go away for a few hours and find the robots have overrun Bissel.:(

The Shade ambassador gapes at the representative of Iuz.
Basically his expression says: Are you nuts?!

Then the Shade ambassador states:

There is no Greyhawk.
There is the Shadow Throne.
There, the Lord Melkor is enthroned, and within all our hearts He is, and ever will be, and our great monuments and churches to Him are within the Shadow Throne.
The Shadow Throne will not be given up.

The pollution, as you call it, from our doings is the result of resistance against the rightful spread of Shade into this world.
We will indeed ... how did you put this? ... clean up our mess.
However, we will not devote time and energy to doing so while an army sits to our east, and another army sits to our west.
We know the treachery in your heart, Iuz, and we are not deceived.

If you choose to attack the Shadow Throne, Iuz, you and your people will suffer the same fate as these fools who chose to defy Melkor and the Shade, when they should have kneeled before him.
They should have kneeled, because it is their place to kneel before Melkor.
Now, they pay the price for their rebellion.

Stay on the winning side, Iuz. We know you are strong in the north.
Stay strong, and stay out of this, and the Shade will unite with you, and the world will be at peace under strong and rightful Rulers.

*sigh*

Where is the link to the Big Map?

My forces started arriving at the beginning of the turn. If we can send a 40PL force to Veluna in time to save the people from the robots, we will do so. The robot force is 8PL, right? Shouldn't be a problem.

And for god's sake, don't go after the spaceship. Not if it would wake up the damn City O' The Gods.

The Torilians have arrived, or maybe not ...

The cavalry has arrived.
Or has it?

Forrester, your forces must get to Veluna.
How will they do that, since they are offmap?

Kaboom could ferry them.
Dagger's dwarves could ferry them.

Will they do that?

The map of the Flanaess is here:

http://users.pandora.be/maudlin/map.html

It is mostly accurate, with some exceptions:

Acererak holds all of the Iron League except Irongate, which is is besieging.
The Duchy of Urnst is still a free nation, and not held by the Shadow Empire.
The County of Urnst is held by the Shadow Empire, not by the Dark Union.
Delrune has taken and occupied Kinemeet in the north.

All up to them . . . I hate getting involved in this war, but at least I won't be attacking sentients.

And while I don't think I can "enter" any races (e.g. the Construct race) until Turn 3, if I can enter them now, I'll do so.

Finally, Edena -- you need to make a ruling about PL allocation. Abastahaewraaeraion the insane Illithid said that he was scrying to find out if people were about to attack him, and said he would allocate 10PL to the 10th level magic war if there was, and all his PL if there wasn't.

That seems a bit iffy to me -- I mean, scrying isn't exactly 100% reliable, especially if Vecna is still around. Is it legal to do conditional PL allocation?

Festy,Forsaken and myself are each entering

The Monster Arms Race
and
The Construct Arms Race

Oh and I have to agree with Forrester conditional PL to research is stupid unless it is in response to conditons at the start of a turn,

Regina Canities, second most important member of the Delrunian forces will go to the peace meeting. Sanctus Punitor will be holding his country against his enemies who are not halting attacks while the council occurs.

While I am unsure what language we are carrying business on in... and Sanctus is really only very familiar with elven, Regina Canities knows quite a few languages.

Languages Spoken: Abyssal, Aquan, Auran, Celestial, Common, Draconic, Druidic, Dwarven, Elven, Giant, Gnoll, Gnome, Goblin, Halfling, Ignan, Infernal, Orc, Sylvan, Terran, Undercommon.

On another side...

My Gnarley Forest unit is ANGRY... There homes were burned down. The Rangers that were training in rifle use are requesting use of the BEST rifles available in the Lortmills and are requesting an Air Taxi from one of my allies...

Edit: My forces are entering the construct arms race... but we only intend in creating constructs out of once-living materials. Wood golems and clay golems (the kind of clay made from decomposed plant life) are examples of these creatures... In about ten minutes I will probably have another few construct types to add (going to grab my MM)...

Yes, but is anyone going to ferry the Torilian troops (via the dwarven mountain spelljammers, or the Sky-Sea League with their skyships and Floating Citadels) to Veluna to save it against the incoming robots?
Otherwise, it's going to take the Torilians a full two Turns to reach the scene. By that time, of course, it will be far too late.

Meanwhile, the people of Irongate go on dying.

So do the forces of the Dark Union battling the Fleet of the Lendores and it's allies, and they are dying along with the Union mages and soldiers.

Oh, Creamsteak, your forces in the Gnarley are going to go ahead and attack the Shade to the east?
And are your forces in Celadan Forest trying to retake the County of Urnst from the Shade?

A resolution must be reached concerning the Slaughter in Irongate, before I can consider sending a reprisenitive to the peace conference.

I am sure my ally Kessel Gnomeworks feels the same way.

"Odd...it seemed you were more than willing to give it up a moment ago, oh well. You and I are immortals, if you want to play these 'games' for all eternity then we shall play them..."

“Your threats to me are as you are, pale, empty, shadows with no teeth…bla, bla,bla,”

“There, happy?”

“Is this really what you want Melkor, You really want a conflict with the IBKSC…?”

Don't jump the gun Edena... there may be more to this movement than I am saying yet... Once my allies agree (I know they will, so if you just give it the OK for them...that would be fine... even if presumptious...) Then I will announce what this force is doing.

In the peace talks
Regina goes into her peace meeting knowing full well that her adversaries are still fighting sword and fist with the Delrunian forces. She is trying to start discussions right away so that she can stop all the fighting. With no clue as to if this is a trap, or a honest desire, she tries to make as little noise as possible till talks begin.

A plea for help

The Kevellond League humbly and respectfully asks the Sky-Sea League and the Dwarven Spelljammers for their aid in transporting the troops of the UC of Toril to fight the robots.

"The Kevellond League agrees with the eloquent statements of Turrosh Mak, Emperor of the Pomarj. We stand with our allies. Our representative will arrive at the same time as the representative of the Emperor of the Pomarj."

"I find it somewhat unusual that the Empire of Aerdi is unwilling to protect lands that it has claimed. We suggest that the
