Uh, which land?
Every fleet of yours passes it and lands further north according to your projections, landing in the bay area I left out of my borders
I'm sending small groups and claiming chunks to populate later. Natives are less likely to notice or be extremely concearned about a few hundred people making their homes than they are a few thousand, not to mention the massive amount of resources required to sustain those few thousand for the voyage and to support them while they start up their farms and infrastructure. It's much easier, quicker and cheaper to feed a few hundred people, build homes for them and start growing crops than it is to feed several thousand people, build homes for them and grow crops for.

Also, when I said I plan to claim chunks, I wasn't exagerating. These are the borders that Corustaria is trying to carve for it's self (Though leaving a fair amount of space for the colonies of allies and friends, of course)
Indeed, you don't just pick a guy and call him mane, he has to be born under a certain moon and all that...
The Legate took the message from the Bosmer and smiled triumphantly "Deliver the Empires thanks to your keeper." He turned to the messenger "Report back to the Governor millitant" The Legate turned his head over his shoulders to one of the officers "Take a small number of troops, a dozen or so, to help the Keepers clansmen to halt the trade from the south."
"As you wish, sir" The Nord said, snapping a salute before rushing off to conduct his orders. Meanwhile, the Legate continued to march on.

They arrived at the Thalmor encampment and noticed it appeared to be a medical center for any who had been injured by the bosmer in the woods, as well as a major border checkpoint. From what he had gathered from the Bosmer, this major base was crucial to the Thalmor war effort, housing craftsmen and the like.
There was no honour in killing the wounded, sick or crafters. But if he drove them away... As soon as the Thalmor learnt a major medical centre had been razed, moral would be hit again for sure. Severely wounded men could rarely be treated on the battlefield, they usually has to be sent away. For him this was easy, these were the lands of the bosmer, virtually all of whom would help the Imperials who were helping them fight off the Thalmor... If he razed this base and captured the healers the Thalmor would either need to ship more in from the Sommerset isle or send the severely wounded back to the isle... Neither of which would be good for them, especially now the largest docks were occupied and the Imperial Navy had taken control of Elven ships, meaning that the Elves would first have to break the naval vessels that was positioned off Valenwood to do so.
This Campaign was going excellent... The legate could almost smell victory and his men were in excellent spirits. The Thalmor had suddenly found themselves in hostile territory, arrows whizzing down at them from people they had thought subdued while the Imperials secured the coast to cut off reinforcements, with an allied army of Bosmer and Empire travelled around Valenwood, targeting strategic positions. Altmer supremacy had just been slapped, and the Legate was certain the moral of the Altmer had suffered as a result of the combination of the above...
How long until they surrendered then, that was the Question...

Elsweyr

The Imperial Administration just released a paper detailing reasons why Elsweyr should remain with the Empire. Most prominent among these was
- Protection from external threats such as the Aldmeri dominion through the garrison of legionaries and fortifications, and the guarantee of support when we are in need. One should not forget the supply of Imperial arms and armour that were given free of charge to help our revolutionaries fight off the Thalmor
-Higher income due to the free trade laws in state with the other states of the Empire, in addition to the freedom to trade with whoever we please, as well as the ability to create and edit our laws at will, so long as they don't conflict with Capital laws such as murder and treason, or go against moral values such as the abolition of slavery
-Protection of Khajiit and our customs from discrimination throughout the Empire shows that the Imperials respect us. Other cultures may mot tolerate this, and an independent Elsweyr would be more open to invasion and could have its culture abolished by its new occupiers
-Freedom from slavery is enforced under the Empire, and as the Empire protects us we are safe from the slavery imposed on our ancestors by races in the past which might wish to invade and enslave us
-Independence threatens the fragile stability Elsweyr has, which is carefully maintained by our friends in the Empire. As shown by recent events, we are easily fractured and brought to the brink of war, but the Emprie has stepped in to try and find a peaceful resolution to the conflict rather than going to war
-The Empire has been instrumental in saving Tamriel from chaos for Era's, and once the Empire fell Tamriel descended into wars. Staying with the Empire will help to reverse this damage, while leaving it will only further Tamriels problems
Indeed, 10 more ships to my name with a 100 million saving! Helps to make up for my dramatic short coming of ships.
A second fleet has been launched from Corustaria, but it appears to be heading south to Drakran rather than to the new world. Unbeknownst to the other nations, save Drakran, these ships contained a large amount of money. On top of this they also contained some colonist and soldiers, as well as resources and an excess of sailors as passengers

Numbers

1 Frigate
1 Barque
1 Brig
2 Galleys

300 Colonists, 400 soldiers (200 Recruits, 200 Regulars), 800 extra sailors, 3.9 Billion in coin (Concealed in sand bags aboard one of the Galleys) Six Cows, Nine pigs, Eight chickens, Twenty horses, a supply of consumables that would last 900 people for 1.5 years (Rationed, preserved... Yes, you guessed it, horrid taste) £1,000,000 In coin (inside a chest in the cargo hold of the Frigate, thus if the fleet is raided the raiders might be tricked into thinking this is the prize and not the greater sum of 3.9 billion), farming equipment, seeds and other such resources

A third fleet, three frigates and six Barques travel to Romus in order to help transport the Lance... They have made it clear that if the ship or its crew is compromised as a result of the Lance (Say the start of a fight or if one of the citizens is stealing) then the offending individuals will be set in a longboat to row themselves home. They have, however, stated that should the Lance supply of food or water run out for whatever reason, the crews rations will be shared with them. On top of this, they have mentioned that more ships will becoming from the south shortly to help carry the colonists. The ships are also carrying a total of 300 Colonists and two hundred soldiers, as well as the resources to sustain them for two years (This group if only 500 strong after all) along with various animals, equipment and resources and seeds. These 'extra's' are rumoured to be there to start another colony near the Lance Colony for ease of trade

Awaiting Numburg Envoy
Awaiting responses from various nations over trade proposals.
Sorry about having to stick that post on the end people, I forgot to reply to ducks envoy so had to do it now xD
A message to the Lance Empires envoy, to be delivered back to their Emperor post-haste

We will gladly assist in sending your supplies across the ocean in return for a guarantee of military assistance should it be required, and a single fee of 100 million to help cover the expenses of the ships voyage
Lets hope Gowia lets you get away with that after someone else posted xD
These conditions are pretty much on par, possibly worse, than the slave ships. This won't end well. I'm not one for going overly realistic, but I think we do need to consider the passenger numbers plus crew we're sending here.
