Finland

Our Emperor, Leino Valtari the Mad Tyrant, just killed one of his senior ministers, Traidenis Czartoryski, for no discernable reason, potentially jeopardizing the Eastern Union totally-not-a-merger that both the Finnish and Lithuanian governments have worked so hard to see through. The absolute madman.

1. I AM THE EMPEROR! MY WORD IS LAW! TO QUESTION ME IS TREASON!

2. Oops. Uh, sorry?

3. We need a sane, just leader to guide us in these troubled times. Down with the Mad Tyrant!

Geats

rip our opsec lmao

1. :hash: :banned: :hi: :two: :regional_indicator_k: :one: :eight:

2. Well, at least we now have an infallible excuse for when we inevitably lose. Metagaming ree!

3. DRAGONS!

Lithuania

Our ostensible Finnish overlord, Emperor Leino Valtari the Mad Tyrant, has killed one of our ancient founders and most notable statesmen, Traidenis Czartoryski, for no discernable reason. This insult towards the Lithuanian part of the Eastern Union demands a response. The absolute madman.

1. Forgive and forget - we have no desire to draw out an unnecessary conflict between allies. EU best U!

2. We have no desire to sabotage our inevitable victory by starting a feud with our allies, but we can also not forgive nor forget such a grievous offence so easily. However, speaking of our inevitable victory, we do have some wars to win. Lithuania Invicta!

3. LITHUANIA INVICTA! DEATH TO THE MAD TYRANT! #EndEU!

Norway

Those dastardly Poles have used their Censer to leak our super secret mass destruction schemes to the whole world. What a shaime. However, our glorious armies have been annihilating the perfidious Geats on the field of battle, and razed two of their shithole cities.

1. We need to redouble our efforts on mass destruction, if we are to succeed in blowing shit up. KABOOM!

2. We don't need no stinkin' kabooms. What we need is to capture Geatish cities, and stop razing them down. The Geats may be unwashed plebs, but we can't build an empire without unwashed plebs to rule over.

3. We should try diversifying our portfolio of stratagems. That's the way to the best, most consistent returns, after all.

Novgorod

We're ded; rip us.

1. F

Poland

Ayy lmao git rekt S-H. Glory to Polska!

1. Keep fighting the good fight! CHARGE!

2. The best offence is a cowardly defence. Let's not let those S-H slime retake everything we just took from them.

3. The war seems to be handling itself alright. What we need to be prepared for is the inevitable Polish civil war that's definitely just on the horizon.

Schleswig-Holstein

Oops. It looks like we've accidentally triggered an international coalition against us when we tried to expedite our annexation of our rightful vassal, Poland.

1. I mean, we're apparently at war with a coalition, but they don't seem to actually be attacking us. Poland, however, is definitely attacking us. Let's finish those Medieval scrubs once and for all.

2. Since Poland's alleged allies aren't currently focusing on fighting us, now is the perfect time to sneak attack them! Time to fuckin' smite those punks.

3. Armies march on their stomachs, and their wallets. Simply refocusing our efforts isn't the path to victory - having more efforts to refocus is.
