Press
A Voice: The seas look surprisingly empty.
Byzantines – Normans: Still “Yes” (4 + 4 = 8 but 4 – 4 = 0. Obviously, 8 > 0).
Holy Roman Empire – Pisa: OK, for now...
Holy Roman Empire – Venice: I can't believe you did that. You've made yourself our worse enemy!
Holy Roman Empire – All others: Notice the moves of Venice, he's trying to build up a large treasury, which means he'll have more units to come after you with. It's time now, to step up and force him to curtail his actions...
Pisa – Normans: Friends of the Pope are our friends, so we can divide northern isles between us, if you agree. We are going to take Corsica and Sardinia should be for you.
Venice - Pope, Pisa and Normans: Sorry for not communicating earlier. Moving against Holy Empire and Byzantines seemed like a good idea because these two would have the best chance to run away with the game if left unbothered. Please consider doing the same instead of infighting. Particularly Pope and Pisa would have a grim future if locked in against each other. I'll gladly provide any helpful supports into areas currently colored purple, green or yellow.
