The nation of Scythius has declared war upon our ally the Russian Empire, causing the automatic implementation of Article 6 of our Treaty's text. All members are required to declare war upon this nation of Scythius at once, as Quaon, Menhad and Germany have already done. What are our thoughts on the conflict and how it shall be pursued by international strike force? |

As an observer, I must warn you to take care to analyze consequences of this conflict. As a Kasnyian, we have too many of our own problems to assist. -Lord Wilhelm Esterhazy |

As an observer Kasnyia is not obligated to defend a member in need, while those who haev signed the treaty are. |

To be sure, but Kasnyia, if she was currently capable, would have wished to assist. In anycase it is a moot point. However, the Observer suggestion that the Treaty weigh carefully the pros and cons of this war stands firm. Scythirus is no spring piglet. -Lord Esterhazy, Observer delegation for Kasnyia |

OOC: When I was a newbie here I managed, with the help of Wadj and Patrua, to defeat Scythius. Of course Patrua carried most of the wieght, but early in the war I was largely my armies that kept Scythius from completly taking over. Wadj armies where destroyed before the war. My point is, its doable. IC: Scythius has been a bully for too long now, and this recent act of war against Russia and our nation is just another grievance in a long list. The Middle East fears and hates Scythius, and their are many more allies that would gladly see the downfall of Scythius. The only problem we have is that Paradise is supporting Scythius, but maybe, if we can appeal to their want of power we maybe able to kept them out of this war.

The Caliph would be more loyal to their own bretheren then those they deem as foreigners. Appealing to them in an attempt to divide would more likely infuriate them than get them on the side of Europe. If you must fight this war, then I would suggest you focus on your defenses first before thinking even an iota of an offensive strategy. -Lord Esterhazy, Observer Delegation from Kasnyia |

OOC: At least 1 RL week to reach Russian Georgia if not more for my troops after a day of mobilization, that's fair right? IC: While German troops are in the process of mobilizing and en route to Georgia, Germany offers the services of her fine transport fleet and transport aircraft to any nation within the treaty, requiring only a request made to the war department. |

Menhadien military units in Africa and Europe are in the process of mobilizing and will be spilt between Menhad and Georgia. We have one small request, since Scythirius has blockaded the Straits of Hormuz and the rest of our navy, largely stationed in Europe, will take some time to reach the Gulf of Oman. If any of our fellow allies decide to deploy a navy to that area, we urge caution and wait for the rest of the Menhadien navy to reach the Gulf. Only then should we take action.

OOC: Just making absolutely sure (OOC) that you know about this document which guarentees that Paradise will side with Scy? Now (obviously) as a secret document you don't know about it IC. And (obviously) perhaps Paradise will change sides. But you guys should know (OOC) that you're up against Scy and Paradise. |

OOC: I'm not entitled to post here for reasons of not being a member, but you're not a member either so maybe it's ok. The reason I tried to goad NRE into declaring war before Scy ever did was strictly because Paradise would be on the other team. It's time we put the top military power in the world up to a challenge. That's just my two cents, because I think I speak for several people here. Feel free to delete this, I was just really compelled to write it. |

OOC- shouldn't that be voted on by all members? IC- I do not mean to sound sarcastic, but it is my understanding that the Treaty of Konigsberg was tp defend Europe? While Georgia is indeed an integral part of the Russian Empire, it is still effectively just a colony. My question is, why must the treaty exit the general scope of itself to go to war against the most powerful powers of the middle east? Surely Georgia is not worth a grim defeat for the ToK. That is not to say I wish to see us lose. However, with the Madrid Pact throwing themselves at the situation, why not allow them to take the brunt of the military might instead? That way, the Treaty can focus on defense of the continent against Scythirus and Paradise. - Lord Esterhazy, Observer Delegatin for Kasnyia OOC- Note that without Grand Duke Eduard Xavier II to tell him what to do or say, Esterhazy's own views are playing out now. He isn't as nefarious as he sounds, but he IS trying to play politics as it were... |

OOC: The treaty's constitution demands we act. There is no need for a vote. IC: The Communist Republic of Quaon will stand by the Russian Empire, even if the rest of the Treaty of Konigsberg will not. It would be cowardly to do otherwise. Quaon and Russia are brother nations, and we will stand by our brothers even if it means being crushed at the hands of the Scythirians. We will not allow the Scythirians to take away the freedom of the Russian people. The people of Georgia are not under colonial rule of Russia; they are an integral part of Russia, and have been so historically. They are as Russian as a man living in Moscow. This is not the case of Russia overrunning a land that had its own people, who were not consenting to this invasion. This is a case of the Scythirians trying to force out the Russian people mout of their rightful land. Quaon does not support European colonization of the Middle East. Georgia is not a colony. Any man who would abandon the Georgian people to be victimized at the hands of the "God" of Scythirus should rightfully be labelled a coward. Georgia needs us now, and I know that the brave men of Quaon will not ignore her cries for help. Let us show the imperialistic powers of the Middle East that Europe will have none of this. Let us stand with the Madrid Pact and let us fight the Scythirians or any other nation that would stand in our way.

The Hispanic state has decided to greatly increase its presence in Georgia, and has authorized Divisions B and E to be deployed in Northern Georgia. This is a huge undertaking, and for quick deployment, Hispania requests that ToK members permit it to use their transport aircraft fleets to move its soldiers from Hispania in a minimal amount of time. |

The Belgian Kingdom will support this military venture, and will likewise stand alongside our allied bretheren in the face of Scythian aggression. If the members of the Treaty of Konigsburg are willing, the Belgian Kingdom offers to deploy the 501st Airborne immediately into Georgia as part of the initial Belgian Expeditionary Force in this region. As soon as it is practicable, the Kingdom of Belgium will send more forces into Georgia. - King Leopold Amaedo II of Belgium |
