Imperial Diet VI

[AussieGiant]

Taking a moment to scowl at Lorenz Zirn, Arnold then address the chamber.

I want to be clear with everyone here.

If the Papacy attacks Austria I will defend my House and then attack until there is nothing left!!

As much as it pains me to say it we are at war with the Pope and I will not sit by and avoid combat.

I might not have started ANY of this but by God I will finish any and all those who resist me!!!

[Stuperman]

Dieterich Von Dassel, Thank You, Your assistance allowed slip back to my home county of Ajaccio, so that it can be properly defended.

[RoadKill]

Be with it then you fools! If glory and pride to you means wasting thousands of men, then you can have your glory.

[GeneralHankerchief]

Dietrich von Dassel:

Wasting men?

Zirn, had we followed your strategy then we would have lost all of Italy below the Po by now.

Right now we have not lost all of Italy below the Po and are in good position to keep all of our Italian territories, with probably only Rome falling.

Plus, had we followed your strategy the Byzantines would still be at more strength. Right now we hold what we held before and the Byzantines have paid a greater price than us.

I don't call that glory. I call that smart defense.

Diet Speaker: My God! The Byzantines are here! They are in the city, slaughtering every man, woman and child! Run, Electors, run! Run for your lives!

But wait for me….
