Despite reading this comic multiple times this is the first time I have noticed the Dark Brotherhood behind that chair. Truly very stealthy assassins.

So when will the anschluss happen?

Ah yes, I forgot to include the celebratory orgy that would happen when TEst would come back.

Thalmor: "Terminus Est welcomes you to the paperless bloc." Zed: "Terminus Est? I thought you broke up." Thalmor: "Yes, that is what we wanted you to think." Thalmor laughs evilly, changes Knights Templar's name to Terminus Est, changes the flag back to the TEst flag, and immediately cancels all their treaties. CKD and Sparta merges into TEst and other old members start coming back. Prefontaine emerges from the ocean in all his glory "Must burn paper."

An apple?! Dear God what have we done?

Just guessing that he would be referring to when he was last GP. So from February 15th, 2016 to August 15th, 2016.

Congratulations to my successor and predecessor. I hereby retire to the position of an elder statesman.

And finally a Targaryen takes back the throne. The Targeryen loyalists are celebrating across the world.

Deal. Thankfully CS has a Roman theme and Arabic for Rome is Rum. Bank of Rum here we come.

So we are torturing Arrgh while they are in rehab? ... ... ... Where do I sign up?

Well not as large as CS' Senate but it is progress. Best of luck UPN.

I was away on personal business when this happened so I am a bit late but I will miss (jokingly) calling for crusades against Mensa because of all the times they beat us up when we would fight them (CS declared war on Mensa twice on behalf of VE and Mensa hit us back in the last days of the 168) or saying "x is going to be steamrolled in the name of Dio". It has been an interesting ride overall and best of luck to you guys.

I agree. I haven't seen the community so passionately against something since the last update.

Given the current state of things here I hope people will forgive me for not rushing over there with tears of joy.

Restius is working on one too as a side note (myself and Novarus are helping on that front)

The more I stay in this game the more I am convinced that is the sole purpose of this game. Well played Sheepy, well played.

Very much this. I made note my military only cost a couple million to build and half a million a day to maintain but to build that military if I didn't make any of the resources myself it would cost 12 million (at the then market prices) for just the resources.

Sounds like the best way to go in all honesty.

"Blah, blah, blah NPO is evil, blah, blah." To be frank I don't care about burning pixels in this game. Please do me a favor and tell Pantheon the same. Unfortunate that at one point 15% of their alliance all suddenly cashed in on get away vacations. Better than my response.

Especially considering the CS Senate is normally adverse to starting an aggressive war.

Fixed it for you.

I would like for this quote to be the one we remember this war by.

Never said I agreed with it. But the Senate is the Senate and each have their own views. My position is more akin to a constitutional monarch so it isn't like I can decide things like that. But Cornerstone has a history of treasuring friends, not keeping fingers in as many spheres as possible for our own benefits but because of our own feelings about allies. If you want to cast us as a demon feel free to keep doing so, it won't change us any. As for Acadia as the Acadian Corner Treaty was not official yet it does not apply. And even then we do not declare war on allies. Otherwise the Stone Coal Treaty wouldn't be worth the forum space it was written on.

This officially makes the war worth it.
