What made you think this? The one rule is, if you don't like being scried, you can put a stop to it permenantly by destroying it. You have to give up your own right to scry, too. Its a live by the sword die by the sword system, and there is an easy out.

Dear Bromen,

Since we're going ut of character suddenly, we might just get this over with. Your view on what an evil general should act like is quite perfect, if you strike in dumb. You weren't there to negotiate, if you wanted to negotiate, you'd done it long before.
However, the active cowardly murder of a much smaller person than themselves, also unprovoked attacks on rangers in General, are issues I believe that you need to address and, in this case, award some sort of punishment for.
This was my last sentence in the first letter sent to you, not demand, as you want everyone to belive, but a friendly advice that a General should be able to address cowardly and unwarranted actions made by their own soldiers.

Here's some exerts from your reply, Bromen:
I would think the presence of a Ranger in the same vicinity of an honorable Angmar would be reason enough for an attack. Ilrahil, being a staunch ally of Cassius, was acting in the best interests of his team and I see no issue with his assistance.
Here you clearely state that the BDA can attack a Ranger as long as they're in tow with an AA member, as for honourable, I doubt many would find either of the two.
Again, the attack on the expert seems to be warranted due to the fact an enemy was present on the boat. Taunting, spiting, biting, impaling, slapping, etc. should be expected in a fight to the death. Maybe the statement was due to the theft of Midnight or your rumored destruction of certain Calian guards.
Calian guards? Oh, you've been mixing characters. Fun with rumours too. And theft is something AA and BDA know well, I gather, as they stole the loot of Trevin before Cassius lost his club in combat. So come on, you really think you'd get anywhere?
I will give Ilrahil an appropriate punishment for his actions for killing someone much smaller than himself. If you'd like to help with his award, you can send a few platinum coins to the army. I do not see any punishment besides encumbering his pockets with coins.
And here you show the what the General of the BDA truely think, that they should be able to do whatever they like. Well, for Ilrahil that's proven wrong by now :D

Last in the mail you claim that I ORDERED you, but clearly, English can't be the strongest side of General Bromen's knowledge, since I didn't order any of the sorts. You also say I should return the weapon (presumably the one you have been led to believe was stolen, because you're obviously too easy to convince that your friends can't do anything wrong) and beg for mercy.


And lastly, from my reply to you on this letter:
The BDA will be paying for the crime of murder.
Seriously, what DID you belive this ment? Or did you just not understand the sentence, it can be broken down. the BDA would pay, not Ilrahil, the BDA, since you basically approved of the murder in your mail, the BDA stands collectively responsible after that, and this is still long before the meeting, where the conversation, if you manage to scrape away all the insults thrown of course, went basically like this:

Bromen: This is what we demand.
Nemi: That's not happening unless we get this and that, and those points you can forget.
Bromen: This is what we demand. No discussion!
Nemi: Not happening!
Bromen: This is what we demand.
Nemi: Seriously Bromen, you know that's not happening.
Bromen: This is what we demand.
Aizorana: Stop being stupid.
Bromen: This is what we demand.
Nemi: This is futile.
Aizorana: Yup.
Bromen: This is what we demand. And now we want more, since you didn't agree at once.
Nemi, to Aizorana: This was never a negotiation, this was dictation and demanding, so lets.

Sending Bromen packing, fully armoured, well armed, but still running like he saw no tomorrow.

Has Bromen actually grown some balls? When I was General he barely made officer ;-)

This sounds like fun, maybe I will return and join the battle.

Hijack
Gorboth: any news on recodes? Events like this is unfair when only some of us gets to taste the cake...

3.I always find Carmelo in character postings here a riot. There is a massive difference in how Bromen views the world vis a vis how Carmelo views the world. It is very clear and very well roleplayed. Bromen has done an excellent job reviving BDA (though some of the exorbant titles at times make me think there is a reason why players should not be allowed to have free titles :)).
Thank you! Even if the titles were exorbitant, they were accurate to the BDA and some of souls behind the character had to research what they meant. Great titles is a wonderful way to show appreciation to other guildmates. Had to remove them for a bit pending approval, but it looks like I have the thumbs up. I look forward to Bromen's next battle of wits against Hektor.

It's going to be hard to insult me while you either die when my sword has been shoved down your throat or when you run away screaming in terror.

Chanele, yes, there has been a lot of growth over the last couple years. It's great adventuring with other experienced players gathering the rare equipment we usually don't see. If you do come back to join in the war, you'll enjoy our top of the line racks and several myths fighting at your side. It would be a tremendous honor to cleave Nemi in half at your side.

To all of you who have ordered popcorn in light of the battles that should come in this war, I have sad news. The match is postponed indefinitly by the lack of BDA activity.
