Summer 1467 Plague
Good year: No plague!
Press
France – Naples: Dear Ally, thank you for the support in Lucca. About Bari, I can only say that you made as a ostrich by burying your's head in the sand and did not want to see what that everyone saw, also Venice (that is not a beginner in my opinion). I see that you could attack Bologna with three units from Pistoia and Florence and so I close the Venetian retreat in Mantua. If necessary, I shall support you in Bolo in fall, if you suggested me your attacking army (Pistoia, Florence, Urbino). About ducats, it seems that all two need them to disband Venetian units, and so none of two can give them each other, I think.
Naples – France: OK, siege him out of Lucca, and tell me what you want to do next... unless he buys or disbands one of my units, I'll be taking Bol... and look for your support too.
Naples – Venice: OK, let me count up my monies, and see which unit looks most inviting to buy... do I have enough.... ??
Venice – France/Naples: Didn't Hitler lose when he opened up a second front? Hopefully I will have better luck.
Venice – Naples: Yes, France kept cluing me in on how to attack you so I was coerced into doing it. Hey, if it does not work out for me, I'll pull back and we can call a 3-way, ok? No hard feelings? I did enjoy our strong alliance while it lasted though.
