Press

Austria – France: I also extend my hand of friendship to these Italians and to you as well.

Florence – Pope: Are we on the same page? If you besieged SIE consider me your ally. If not...

France – Milan: I see the Greed of Genoa has called you away from Milan when you should have stayed back to protect your people. Pray that Austria will have mercy on you, for I won't show mercy when one's head is on the block.

France – Austria: Lets divide up and plunder the Provinces of Milan. For he has shown to be a weak & greedy Ruler. I'm content to take Pavia this Year, and as a token of Friendship, I offer you my Army's Support in Pavia to you. If your Army in Carinthia is still there, my Army will Support you into Milan if you so desire to take its riches. It matters not to me if you show mercy to Milan, but Venice has already shown his hand against you, and has offer his hand to Milan. Let us divide up and plunder the Milan before the Venetians can help!!

Naples – Florence: If you will remain out of the Islands, your Pisa and Piombino will be surely free of any race of our fleets. Actually I do not have anything against the pope: his moves are in the direction of the no-belligerence pact proposed by me.

Naples – Papacy: Dear Pope, as I just said, I moved like if the no-belligerence pact is already been accepted by you. I hope that you also did so.

Naples – Turks: It seemed to me that you intend to move north in Adriatic and so I decided to avoid any hostile act against you and dedicate to islands. Ionian Sea must remain always free in order to have peace between us.

Papacy – Florence: You are correct. Your moves were only defensive last time. I believe you. My moves are only defensive this time. I accept the same courtesy.

Turks – Naples: Peace is good. Central Med should stay empty.

Turks – Venice: "I go only to Bos, U to Her, ok?" You need a new map. Bos is mine (Red!). If you go there, that would be war.

Venice – Austria: I no like U full moves south, U understand? U move west is OK, I leave ya alone.
