How do you view Caligus?

Caligus is a realm that exists in the shadow of Perdan. I consider it and all alliances except for Oligarch to be a puppet state of Perdan. Yssaria wars with Caligus for many reasons, the late Ramirez's betrayal, warring our Federated allies, and the torture of our former King and most skilled retired General in the history of this game, Prandur.

Would you entertain any thoughts of peace with them?

Sure. Currently, they do not understand why I would be asking this, but they will soon know under the guidance of my two trusted military advisers, Abishur as High Marshal and Sumsar as second in command. I would peace with Caligus if Aureus, Aestus, Supra, and Domus were in our hands. simple.

What do you say to accusations that you are too young to think about commanding a realm such as Yssaria?

What accusations? I was elected twice. The first time might have been a bit shady as many were in prison; however, I am not larger than Yssaria. I stepped down to have a FAIR election. I was re-elected. As for my age, with my decisions militarily and how we are progressing now, Caligus is but a memory under the intereim military administration.

Is it true that you refused to take your troops to Supra to help tear down the walls? What was your reasoning?

Yes, I refused to assault the walls of Supra in the first wave, first line on a pathetic attempt to take the walls down that we could have used in the future. We will no longer ever be able to have walls in Supra again. I did not approve of the wave attack. We out produce Caligus, out military them, and am superior to them in every aspect. Stats show our superiority. I applauded the use of a huge force approach in the ammount of three attacks. Our former General used that tactic one time and said that it was useless. She failed to understand the overall picture. Two or three more attacks would have given us the victory. Would any other normal General who respected the King order him to go into the first wave of an outnumbered and overwhelming loss? no. She did not respect me as she was wrapped in her own objectives. My other military advisers thought there was a better approach. Other rulers on the East Continent laughed at our military state. They questioned our military leadership and our stance as a former power. I will not sit and allow Yssarian military to be laughed at. Changes needed to be done. I now have a General and Lietentant that are phenomenal. We just destroyed all of Caligus' military. Great things are on the horizon. Wait and see.

Finally, what is your response to a prominent Caligan TL saying "You guys couldnt have taken Supra if you life depended on it...."

My response would be, "Could someone give this confused lad a scout report of Supra please? I believe that they are constructing Yssarian Statues and running up the Yssrian colors."
