I believe we can easily reach an agreement.  I will move off the capital, and leave you with the village in the water near the top.  I will allow you to raise the regional reaction in DC so your troops can recover morale.  I will reclaim my PC in the region this turn as well.  Plundering villages/Towns in my region would revert us back to our current state.  If things remain peaceful i will give an additional PC next communication cycle.
I would like to explore my kingdoms capabilities more as well before the AM or RD sweep the game, and could also be interested in your services in the future.

Let me know if the terms are acceptable

Indeed they are.  I will need to move 6 wizards to the southernmost town I captured in Darkover last turn in order to raise them for their new assignments (bounty, etc) but will then move off and allow you to recapture all of Darkover.  I will Bounty Darkover next turn and for 2 following turns.

Cheers and thank you for using TrollsNmages4hire!

Good luck with your new endeavors

We would like a three wizard group.   P5, p4 and another low level is fine.    Initially we would likely be paying to raise them.   Troops we ask to summon later but will of course pay for there upkeep.

Wonderful news!  We can have a 5,4,4 group available immediately, which can (I think) be ready to teleport to your chosen location this turn.  With your initial deposit of 50k this turn (runs in 11 hours, by the way) we can also upgrade this to 5,5,5 but then would not be able to teleport to your chosen location until next turn.  Please specify 5,4,4 this turn, or 5,5,5 next turn, and choose with or without leaders and trolls.  Either way, please issue the standing order to trade 50,000 gold for our 1 food.

You may be interested in a new product we are testing that we may be able to include with the 5,5,5 wizard package, (but with an additional upkeep fee).  We call it the "Rock-N-Troll" a contingent of rock golems join the trolls for substantial boost in attacking power, and we suspect this group will be easily capable of capturing cities and plundering towns each turn without rest.  With the triple power 5 wizard strength, the army can teleport invisible each turn and still have a mage available for that earthquake spell to soften up PCs.

Raising wizards beyond level 5 will be a problem as adequate facilities may not be available for some time (the DE is about to lay the smack on our capitol).  However, with substantial additional financial support, this may be possible in the future.

Please note this low introductory rate of 50k per turn is subject to change, as 3 power 5 wizards can sit comfortably in the safety of the lab and create 30k gold per turn all by themselves without risk and without paying and feeding the trolls.  (If the trolls are having fun though, all will be well.  The main goal is to engage the combat mechanics and specifically observe the conditions of brigade promotion in various types of troops and battles.)  

Upon confirmation of your order, we will begin processing it immediately.

Thank you for using trollsNmages4hire for your troll and mage needs!

This is agreeable.   Your a busy wizard it would seem.   I can start this turn and will send 50k gold.  I would like to not make it a standing order as it may need to change turn to turn at least until wizards are at there needed levels.  At least one p6 maybe 2.   
For this turn please port to the great town of Magnificent Humps.   This will become your groups port of origon.   I noticed I cannot send food and gold the same turn so we will need to improve this PCs food production to feed your group.  I will also pay to have a wizard place thing put in when needed.

For this turn the extra 2 p4s I guess could just make food so the p5 can port over.   So we could trade 50k food for 16k food.   Is this good for you?  Also the defense is 13k I figure this should not be a problem?  May need to use a wizard or two next turn to take which is fine.

Your order has processed!  Due to some favorable considerations, we no longer have power 4 wizards available, so upon your confirmation of trade (50k for 1 food) your order will be available for use Next Turn.

And oh, what a deal you are getting sir.  Let me tell you about this Package:

Your group designation is 2WA and is lead by Grand Marshal Kazinor who carries the legendary Great-ax of Hurblind. Kazinor is supported by two up-and-comers, Major Generals Nimbus and Bol (they call him "the Scimitar" with good reason).  The ranking three wizards are all level 5 are ready for action.  Three tough troll brigades, one recently promoted to veteran status, are eager for battle and despite spending extended periods in harsh hostile environments, are still highly motivated!


If you are interested in the previously proposed "Rock-N-Troll" upgrade package, this group can upgrade without delay! Two additional power 5 wizards will be temporarily assigned to your package for a swift summoning of 5 rock golems.

Please confirm your payment as our plans depend on your first installment.

And as always thank you for using TrollsNmages4hire for all your troll and mage needs!

Since a recent change in status with a former enemy, we are not in a position to capture PC/raise wizards to 5 and teleport out on the same turn.  We must move and raise this turn, and be available for use next turn.

We could still go with 5,4,4 and trade 16k food for the 50k gold if you prefer, but we cannot do 5,5,5 AND do the food for gold as we are in winter now.  Please advise.

WA - RD  We will re-tool your 5,4,4 order to be ready to teleport to Magnificent Humps THIS turn and trade 16k food for 50k gold.  Please indicate the location of this town.

There I made it more clear for you.   You will find many scriptures written on the walls that we left alone out of respect to our neighbors.   We of course wonder if the ladies would stop trying to pee standing up they would not need Jon's #1 "If you tinkle when you sprinkle, be a sweetie and wipe the seaty."

lol gotcha, see you soon.

WA - RD  Your order has processed.  Two small changes due to some complicated logistical issues, your group designation is 1WA, and Kazinor can't find his axe.  We will get it back to him in the near future.
