The 2nd diplomacy phase has begun! Feel free to write out tasks, take part in subplots and generally enjoy your roleplaying. Remember that rules have been altered slightly since the end of the battle phase and should be looked into and understood before proceeding.
Markets will remain closed until an economy update has been made as there will be price changes on many items.

Primary Goals Cao Cao's ForceAfter a huge gain in resources, troops, and land after the battle of Lou Yang, hostilities with Li Jue and Guo Si have reached a climax. In order for Cao Cao to continue his campaign against the rebels, he needs to know that his other avenues are safe. Since talks broke down with Lu Bu, it would be advisable to begin relations with Yuan Shao, your strong neighbor north, and see if he would come to your aid if either Zhang Xiu or Lu Bu commit treachery. Cao Cao's force must be versatile this phase. Whilst others are diplomats, the rest must be warriors and see if they can do anything to heighten their chances of victory in their next battle with the rebels. Liu Bei's ForceThe acquisition of Yong An has placed Liu Bei in an awkward position. With his ambitions ultimately leading to Ba Shu, his force must make contact with Liu Zhang. They either need to peacefully approach him, or purposefully create a need for war. Either way, Liu Biao's support will be pivotal. With strong officers like Yan Yan and Zhang Ren and a large army, Liu Zhang could be a strong enemy, but an even more powerful ally. Sun Ce's ForceSun Ce's force is in a peculiar situation. After the battle of Jian Ye, the fate of the city is left in air. If Yuan Shu is as greedy as he seems, he may take it all for himself. Sun Ce's force needs to assure that the city is under their governance to bolster their realm. They also need to either deteriorate their relationship with Yuan Shu this turn, or strengthen it. Secondary Goals Cao Cao's ForceComplete any subplot. * 50 Reputation Points and 100 Gold for Cao Cao's Force. Liu Bei's ForceComplete a subplot that deals with either Liu Zhang or Liu Biao. * 50 Reputation Points and 100 Gold for Liu Bei's Force. Sun Ce's ForceComplete any subplot. * 50 Reputation Points and 100 Gold for Sun Ce's Force. Well here's your goals for this phase guys, have fun with it. - Mikey

Diplomacy Phase 2 Close Imminent! Although this doesn't mean that you can't still do tasks or create storylines - I would like to thank all three forces for participating and pursuing their goals. For a re-cap: Cao Cao's Force:* Cao Cao and Yuan Shao enter into an alliance. * Tensions continue to rise between Zhang Xiu and Cao Cao. "Cao Cao has not saved the Emperor, merely enslaved him into his twisted regime. You words of propaganda twist the truth; but you are nothing but a one-eyed oaf who closes and opens his eyes to what he sees. Let Cao Cao know that him and his puppet Emperor hold no authority in my lands and if he wishes to condemn me for my crimes of justice; let him come and take me alive."
- Zhang Xiu Fulfilled all Primary Goals!Liu Bei's Force:* Liu Bei's diplomatic approach is thwarted by the cunning of three of Liu Zhang's best officers: Yan Yan, Zhang Ren, and Huang Quan. * Zhao Yun's strange behavior has attracted attention to himself. "First these inane suggestions, and now an accusation against my officers?! I will not stand for such things not only being said in my presence, but in my own house, after eating of my bounty?! I should have you kicked out at once!"
- Liu Zhang Fulfilled all Primary Goals!Sun Ce's Force:* Sun Ce is cornered into swearing fealty to Yuan Shu, bound by loyalty and the influence of the Imperial Seal. * Zhou Yu and others take the fight to pirates on the Great River, but where do Zhou Yu's loyalties really lie? "Lord Bofu, rise! Place your hands on the jade that He Shi Bi found in Chu, and swear your fealty to Cheng, with the gods as your witness. If you ever commit treachery to yourself, your subjects, or the Empire of Cheng, the heavens themselves will strike you down from your throne, and the people will riot at your gates!"
- Yuan Shu Fulfilled all Primary Goals!Thank you everyone for all your activity and co-operation! I look forward to this next phase. You're all amazing! - Mikey
