Ha. If Duke Arnold says it, let it be done. If he didn't really say it, we'll find out some way or another, but I'd rather have some manner of order.

Ironic - accusing the Kaiser of staging a coup for a lesser position? Such a situation would be laughable. Perhaps the Kaiser's authority is waning.

Herrmann Steffen:

Excellent, does this mean we can get back to fighting?

Von Essen, one would have to be accepting payments from the halfbreed Greeks or the in bed with the french to introduce such a manufactured political scandal in times like these, are you mad? or just a traitor?

Hearing of the Emergency Session, von Essen returns

Fred, you can kindly go !@#$ yourself you stupid !@#$.

All I wanted was the law to be followed. Nothing more. I have said multiple times that I have no problem with the Kaiser. Personally, I like the guy. But, what he was doing was illegal.

If we give up our laws, then the Greeks have truly won. I'm glad to see that is not the case... yet...

That is a... curious statement, Dieter. If I remember correctly, the reason the Greeks did not succeed in taking over the entire Reich was because several Electors, namely Peter von Kastilien, Tancred von Tyrolia, and Dietrich von Dassel, chose to break the law and attack Constantinople and Durazzo. Had they obeyed the law and not committed to those attacks, we would surely be ruled by the Byzantine Emperor.

I was young or not even born when those events happened.

Sure, breaking the law worked but I am sure a better way could have been found that was legal. To me, breaking the law just shows a lack of imagination.

It's the Greeks who break laws. One of the millions of reasons why they are not fit to rule the lands they govern. We're better than that. And our willingness to admit a mistake, open an emergency session, and change the law to accommodate a terrible situation proves it.

Now if someone can please help get me to Outremer, I can personally help remove some provinces from Greek control.

Elberhard walks into the Diet, face swollen and eyes blackened - presumably from struggling with the mountain of orders sent to the Chancellor's office.

Elberhard: Dieter, believe me it would give me great pleasure to put you on a boat and send you to Outremer.

However, you have just been appointed commander of one of the Austrian Household Armies. Maximillan von Hapsburg is your second in command, but is currently on reserve duty. I suggest it might be best to wait for his return to active duty before @#$%^&!!!ing off.
