I'm going away for a while.
Some people will be happy about that.

Re:Deleted File
Sorry about that. It had two instances of "PNG" in the file name, which usually happens when someone uploads a duplicate file. I have rename your file to prevent this from happen aging again, but please keep this in mind to avoid it in the future. Thank you. -- 18:48, June 8, 2018 (UTC)

Re:Template
The only purpose of that template was to add a specific color. This can be achieved without the need of a template (hence, it being redundant).

I already corrected the issue on your page (which you can see here), and it doesn't change the look of the article.

You are correct that there are still templates like this, but they are slowly being removed from the Wiki (due to the same reasons). While they work fine on Wikipedia, this Wiki incorporates multiple timelines with many differing possibilities. It's simply easier to use the direct coding. -- 14:48, June 12, 2018 (UTC)

Okay
Please understand that my decision was pure-hearted and wasn't intended to be antagonizing in the slightest.

I will be reverting your template and I will be leaving you to your own devices.

I truly hope we can put this behind us, that you can see me as a friend and not an annoyance.

Please take care. -- 03:11, June 13, 2018 (UTC)

Sorry
I did not know it was spelled two ways - Monterey AND Monterrey depending if it is in US or Mexico.

Some day I'll be perfect.

New Netherland
May we have a discussion on the actual PMIV page? Hdjensofjfnen (talk) 22:40, June 27, 2018 (UTC)

In that case I will sign up as Avalon. Hdjensofjfnen (talk) 22:46, June 27, 2018 (UTC)

Nations of Arcadia (PMIV)
Is the land north of my border and south of the 35th parallel (Arcadia) no man's land, or is it a nation proper?

Hdjensofjfnen (talk) 21:38, June 28, 2018 (UTC)

Oh ok thanks! Hdjensofjfnen (talk) 21:46, June 28, 2018 (UTC)

Question on claims in Arcadia
On the outdated map, it appears that the former Scandinavian colony (now an independent Vinland) is in control of Prince Edward Island. Is this now part of Borealia, or part of Vinland?

Thanks in advance!

en route
Looks like you're right.

"When spoken aloud, en route is pronounced identically to on root, although the latter has an entirely separate meaning. Also, the correct spelling of this term is always en route. A spelling without a space enroute occasionally pops up here and there, but it is a widely rejected spelling that you should avoid."

Sorry

to repair
If you use this you should say repair what.

Perhaps repair itself.

transitive vs intransitive verbs
"Verbs can be tricky things, and the difference between transitive and intransitive verbs often confounds even the best grammar students and writers. An intransitive verb is simply defined as a verb that does not take a direct object. There's no word in the sentence that tells who or what received the action."

"repair" is a transitive verb and requires a direct object - repair what?

"to be repaired" solves that problem.

Hi I signed up as the New England player in Principia Moderni and I would like to attend your peace talks and end our conflict. I made a page here that you can add to:

Map Errors
Hey Vand, so on the PMIV map it has some errors, particulary in the Middle East. First of all, decades ago me and nate seized the ports of Aden and Port Said, So remove the British colors from there please. Thank you.

Egyptian-Arabian War
Hey Vand! Mind adding in the next algo a naval invasion of Jeddah? If it succeeds, then include my force of 30,000 men continueing their advance from Jeddah to Mecca. If you are wondering where I get these 30,000 men from, then just take them from the 300,000 fresh troops I have sent to the frontlines in Palestine. Oh yeah, that’s another thing, I have sent an additional 300,000 troops to the frontlines and will be using them to perpetrate another campaign into Negev which will include heavy artillery and lots of bombings of entrenched Arabian soldiers (so include that in your final decision). Anyway, see ya later! Cybermats, created by the Cybermen, they kill by feeding off Brainwaves 22:44, September 27, 2018 (UTC)

PM4 Defensive in Aztlan
Army is 5% of population (reasonable), stands at 1.66 million. Currently, troops are pushing into Texas (about 300,000 strong) and a naval blockade is around Texas (around 2/3 of the Eastern Fleet). Also, 350,000 troops are pushing south to combat New Granada, leaving about 700,000 still unready, and 300,000 at the ready at the border of Novo Galiza and Maiam. Hdjensofjfnen (talk) 23:28, September 27, 2018 (UTC)

Well, Feud won’t allow nate to go crazy with this war, and nate has said he won’t really do anything bad or humiliating to Egypt post-war (he could be lying but idk) and plus I have the man power to wage this war, along with the equipment. I might consider a ceasefire or a temporary armistice though. Cybermats, created by the Cybermen, they kill by feeding off Brainwaves 02:39, September 28, 2018 (UTC)

New Algo for the Aztlani Front
I just changed and improved the algo for the Aztlani Front which seems very plausible. Also there are Belkan Troops coming to rienforce me so it is implusible that Aztlan pushs me back. Th3 Legnd 27 (Talk )  September 28 2018 18:39:50 (UTC)

Why I lost
May I ask why the Egyptian army got crushed? Me and Arabia had pretty equal armies in terms of equipment, supplies, and experience, plus I had the population to wage a giant war against Arabia, masses produced planes, vehicles, fire arms, and artillery. Did you not know about this? Or were you paid off by solace or scraw to have Egypt lose? I understand Arabia had a bigger population, but like I said before I could fight that as through my manditory 6 month military conscription for all men 16 and up I could raise roughly 2 Million Troops to fight this war, and I clearly raised a lot of troops during this war, yet I still lost, how? I’m surprised this wasn’t a stalemate. Please tell me how I lost because despite what the mods might think, I have a modern army, the manpower, and the industry to fight on par with arabia. Cybermats, created by the Cybermen, they kill by feeding off Brainwaves 21:23, September 29, 2018 (UTC)

I apologize. Though to me I feel like I Lost, Arabia totally steamrolled me in Ashqelon and Gaza and swiftly took the Sinai, so I assumed I was losing. Yes the Treaty says that, but I assumed that the reality of it was that I lost. I apologize for assuming you were tipped off by scraw and solace, though I accused you of this because those 2 are my most outspoken haters and both think Egypt is weak and backwards. Also I didn’t know I had raised 2 million all at once, as I thought I had to raise them in separate groups. Once again I apologize for accusing you of corruption, it’s just to me a stalemate doesn’t include my armies getting steamrolled by the opposing force.

New War
Idk if I should go through with this Iberia war, I mean I just got out of a pretty brutal war with arabia, plus what if i lose? Idk how do I go through with this war? Cybermats, created by the Cybermen, they kill by feeding off Brainwaves 02:05, September 30, 2018 (UTC)

Okay so I’ll need an algo today whenever you can for the attack on Oran in Morocco. I’m using 500,000 Troops, I have decent air support though not as much as I usually do due to the distance from the nearest airbase.

Okay this war is going bad for me now, why? B e l k a

Algos
Okay Nevermind in the Iberia war algos, I’m instead attacking 2 Independent Anatolian States via my 2 port cities. I’m attacking both these states with 200,000 troops and some local militia.

Not fighting Iberia or Belka or any of Belka’s allies.

Fine don’t believe me? Check my post, I’m not invading Iberia nor did I ever declare support for burgundy. I DEMAND you remove me, I don’t care what scraw says or thinks I’m REALLY not a part of this stupid war, I might in the future but not on burgundy’s or arabia’s Side. My posts aren’t fake they are REAL and if scraw can’t understand or if you can’t understand then I suggest you both resign from your positions and hand over control to more mentally stable people. Good day. Cybermats, created by the Cybermen, they kill by feeding off Brainwaves 23:57, October 2, 2018 (UTC)

Can you explain to me why I can’t even remove my own country from the dang war that we both know I AM NOT A PARTICIPANT OF? Cybermats, created by the Cybermen, they kill by feeding off Brainwaves 02:45, October 3, 2018 (UTC)

Battle of Salama (PMIV)
You forgot to make an algo for the Battle of Salama in which i sent 400,000 to capture the city of Salama in order to support the Belkan and Chinese offensive in Central Arcadia.Th3Legnd27  (Talk)  12:27, October 3 , 2018

Uluru Algorithms
Hello, im Joseph, the player who recently joined as Uluru in Principia IV. Anyway, I just wanted to ask for your help in making the algorithms for the next few turns in the conflict im currently in. I don't know how many British soldiers are in Carpentaria and Tasmania, both of which I am currently fighting in and dont know how to do algorithms for, so I would like to request your assistance with making the algorithms for them, Though obviously you don't have to. Id like to specifically request assistance with the algorithms of my counterattack into Carpentaria and invasion of Tasmania, thank you and sorry if this bothers you. https://althistory.wikia.com/wiki/User:JosephtheAwesome.

Uluru Algorithms part 2
Thank you, I don't know of any major settlements in the Carpentaria region that was landed in, so I don't know exactly where the battles would take place. For Tasmania I just currently need algorithms for my initial battle after landing, since that's all I have done so far. For Tasmania I sent about 150,000 troops, well the Carpentaria counterattack has about 200,000 dedicated to it, im unaware of how many soldiers the British have in either region. Thank you again for this and sorry to bother you.
