[quote=Titanic] Two questions.1. Is the BFE invading helor?2. Is there going to be a conflict between NBE(New Bohhadon Empire) and BFE? [/quote] I don't want to say too much, as nothing has been decided yet. However, from what is already established, we know that Helor was Hightower's ally. The Ratmen are likely to invade them - if they themselves are not invaded first. Bohaddon's army movements wont be hidden from BFE, and they'll more than likely hold off an invasion of Helor to deal with the human threat. To make matters worse for Fiendish, his nation's pro-human stance has probably alienated the Ratmen, and so gaining their cooperation in a joint-offensive may be a bit of a tricky issue. However, mutual survival rules the roost at the end of the day, and anything is possible; I'll leave it for Fiendish to decide whether or not he wants them to help, but he if does, he'll need to win them over with either kind or cunning words. Alternatively, Panda is poised to be a likely ally to Bohaddon, and help may be found by going there. Be warned though, I will adjust the Empire's fighting strength to reflect the forces that are availed against it - to prevent a two week blitzkrieg of them. Nothing OP, of course, I'll just make sure it's fair. As for the Southern Bohaddon Empire, its agenda is not clear yet. It has recently acquired three new regions after a lengthy summer campaign; but it has not contacted anyone, and right now no one knows whether they seek to stay in the south, or indeed, move north to reclaim their ancestral heartlands. However, if they do intend to press north, then the BFE will be forced to either pledge its allegiance to a new Emperor, as they did before this mess started, or dismiss him as an usurper and go to war.
