Space Empires 101 - Galactic Council

The RCC, in one of its final official acts, has gifted to the Cyber collective TWO good planets in the Mannurapha system. Combined, they provide over 35 facility slots, a shipyard, six intel centers and some other miscellaneous facilities. WE trust this will alleviate any insult our earlier trade offer caused. If not, well, we would question the Cyber's sanity since the trade is heavily weighted in their favour. As mentioned earlier, we wish to resolve all issues so as not to burden the new Thermolian regime with outstanding issues.

That is a very good offer coming form the EysK Imperial Guard. I do believe I have a few planets scattered in among his systems. This could be a good time to do a little planet swapping.

I am not Cyber HQ at the moment. I am delayed on some very long boring days of routine duty. I may not be able to update our diplomatic proposals before the coming session.

And as I've said before, Marechal Brunwik, your huge fleet in Zir system, will make no difference to our decisions. Please arrange your military parade in other place. I won't allow my people to suffer from desperate war with Citizen Federation, remember this, please.

This war fleet is on its way home. It's quite slow, so you 'll have to bear its presence for one or two month in Zir.

Regards,

Sky Marechal Brunwick.

It has become clear that there are certain parties who are distressed by the upcoming merger of the RCC with the Thermolian empire.

Specifically, it has been requested by the Cyber collective that they receive all the former Dei-O systems. WE have not done this, and we were very surprised by this request, for we had no inkling of such desires until now.

WE have urged all parties involved in this to be moderate and restrained in their actions.

We have given the Cyber two excellent planets in exchange for our accidental colonization of a planet they had desired in the Woostoid system. This trade is much more than fair to cyber - especially given that they already possess many planets in Woostoid.

Therefore we ask that they refrain from any inflamatory actions towards Thermolia, in the interest of resolving any outstanding issues.

We have also urged Thermolia to pursue the resolution of any issues that remain.

We fundamentally question the desire for Cyber to possess all of the former Dei-O systems now, when previously they had expressed no such desire. To bringup such issues now seems ill-timed at best, ill-intentioned at worst.

Our merger with Thermolia was the best option available to us. Thermolia was totally decimated by the war with Dei-O. They were, effectively, a minor power that had always supported the RCC. Thus, combinging our empires results in no change in the balance of power - nothing will change effectively. hence, there should be no concern over this unless it is based on jealousy or ulterior motives.

We urge all to resolve this issues peacefully as the RCC leadership retires.

You talk like a snake in the grass Alarik.
You have bent my words out of shape.
You asked if this was unbalancing for the game.
I never made a demand, and included others in my suggestions.

I saved your butt and the Themolians butt from the Dei-O you both started. Three major battles were faught and won by my fleets against superior Dei-O numbers (yea, it surprised me too). Eysk fleet was also there helping, and Trooper's fleet had just arrived from a great distance.

Why should we not share the bounty?

Is Thermodyne a buddy from RL?

This argument becomes too personal. Although I'm not a RCC advocate, this issue can be resolved without personal offence. Total war is a good alternative

OOC: This is really getting out of hand. Alarik and I have been allied since the beginning of this game, and that was because of a common threat on a border we shared. Beyond that we have had very little contact. IIRC, we have been in a game or two, but not as close allies.

As to the war, that is old news. There were two targets and I went after the D-O. As part of a larger coalition I might add.

Now to upsetting the balance of the game, I would think that you would be happy. His empire was much stronger in his hands then it will be in mine. I am far form being one of the more skilled players in this game.

To the surrender of the D-O and who they chose to surrender to, I can not speak. I was not a party to any of the discussions. But I would add that they at least surrendered to someone that they were actually at war with. Unlike the surrender their partner made.

In closing the OOC part, I would like to remind everyone that this is just a game. We are supposed to be enjoying the challenges that it presents.
