Bretonia attacking anything that moves?

I already explained that. I joined this RPG becuase I wanted to fight somebody, not play nice. It seems to me that nobody else has the balls to take a risk and attack a PC faction. This pisses me off, to say the least. As far as it being out of character goes, it isn't. Everyone else is negotiating with factions that are their mortal enemies. Kusari would never make peace with the Blood Dragons and vice versa as the BDs are trying to overthrow the government. That's treason as far as I can remember. No House would negotiate with the Outcasts or Corsairs because of at least 500 years of violence. Nevermind the fact that the Outcasts want to poison the colonies and Corsairs are vicious pirates. By attacking (or trying to at least) everyone who is negotiating with criminal groups of various types I'm actually the only one who is in character.

Now that I've gotten that off my chest, I need to say something else. I'm retiring from this RPG. I've been spendng way too much time worrying about it and not enough time on more important things. It hasn't even been worth it either. As I'm sure you all can tell I'm not happy with the utter lack of any conflict. As I said before, that's why I decided to join in the first place; for the battles. Having said all that I want you all to know that I don't bear you any ill will. This is your game as much as it is mine and if this is what you all want, so be it. I'll just have to find some other way to deal with my destructive tendencies . Farewell to all, and best of luck.

The chancellor has decided!
Message to the Corsairs--Thanks, we accept your offer of truce.

Transmission to Outcasts-- we will think about it, and it looks likely.

A celebration will be held at Dawson station to celebrate the blow to the Rogues and Xenos. Now, on to Barrow station...
turn 11:
1. 5 LF wings to Hamburg, 1 gunboat to Dresden, 1 to Weimar

2. I build 5 LF wings, coming to the cost of 25 credits/10 M/5 H-F/5 O

3. N/A

4. I move 1 LF wing from New Berlin to Hudson. The troops at Dawson station will be moved to the Xeno Base, Barrow station, in the same system (guarded by 5 LF). So, that's 30 LF, 2 HF, and 2 VHF wings, and 1 gunboat. The cruiser in Hudson is to go to New Berlin.

5. How much does Samura get per turn? I get half of it now...anyways, 220 + 1420 = 1640 credits
comoddities: 141 M, 65 H-F, 44 O, 159 F, 92 W
Ships:
New Berlin: 45 LF, 2 HF, 1 cruiser, 1 VHF, 1 battleship
Hamburg: 34 LF, 3 HF
Stuttgart: 51 LF, 1 VHF, 1 HF, 1 gunboat
Hudson: 30 LF, 2 VHF, 2 HF, 1 gunboat
Dresden: 50 LF, 1 battleship, 1 VHF
Weimar: 50 LF, 1 destroyer, 1 VHF
that's all cleared up...after I defeat the Xenos at Barrow station, more battles will ensue, but not against NPCs....heh heh heh...

Message to the Shogun of Kusari:
My actions are unacceptable, it you my blind-sighted brethren that are unacceptable. We have forgiven the Rheinland house. You had you're chance to help us, but you refused the to build our own nation's capital ships. When you denied the ships, you denied us the right to defend ourselves, and for that you can never be forgiven. We break all ties with the Kusari nation. Besides, who wants to be allied with a unforgiving dishonorable nation.

Codename's gone too?
Ergh, this RPG is falling apart!

Post Sun Nov 14, 2004 10:34 am

"Due to our alliance with the Kusarian Government, no Samura Industries vessel is allowed to pass through a system occupied by the Corsairs."

"Outcasts your offer is accepted. We ask that you join in preventing Samura Industries from using your spaceways, we are doing the same."

Post Sun Nov 14, 2004 10:59 am

Codename's GONE? When the hell did that happen? ahhh it is falling apart!!

He really shouldn't have left. I was just about to start a major war with a faction soon to be named.

Sorry to be a pest, but could you decide whether my light fighter FA research was a success or failure?

And richardson--what is Sheffield station guarded by currently?

Actually the main reason I agreed to the alliance with the Blood dragons was the fact that Bretonia was looking to start a war. Kusari would have forgiven the Blood Dragons given the proper incentive (as they did in this case).

Turn 8

This turn I will:

A. Place 1 small base and 1 battleship in the Kyushu system.

B. Purchase 1 small base, 4 LF wings and 1 Battleship.

C. To Samura Industries: This is an act of war. As of this moment the Kusari government officially siezes controll of all Samura assets within the Kusari systems. Our pilots have orders to aniahlate any of your ships that attempt to enter our space. Your employees have 24 hours to clear the premises or they will be taken into custody. Cooperate and we will not harass you further and you will be allowed to pass through again, provided you submit to a secuity check point. Continue to defy us and you will be persued to the far reaches of the galaxy.

D.No battles yet. Samura has 1 turn to hand over controll of all their bases planets and shipyards in Kusari. If they do not I will destroy them, 1 system for every turn they do not comply. I will also give the Blood dragons and the Corsairs free reign to attack and destroy Samura's ships in their territory if Samura does not comply with these terms.

E. To Corsairs: Your terms for the base are acceptable. You will recieve 5 credits every turn.

F. I will move my fleet in the Kyushu system to the Honshu system.


At the end of this turn I will have :

0 credits, 422 Food, 316 H-Fuel, 37 Metals, 11 Oxygen, and 465 Water.

6 small bases, 9 large bases, 1 capital shipyard, 1 fighter shipyard, 4 planets.

180 LF, 98 HF, 3 gunboats, 1 destroyer, 6 battleships, 2 freighters, 1 transport, ans 2 large transports.

Turn 5:
130 creds, 28 metal, 8 oxy, 32 h-f, 18 water, 40 food
plus:
50 creds, 30 metal, 12 water, 8 oxygen, 12 food, 20 H-fuel
comes to:
180 creds, 58 metal, 16 oxygen, 52 h-f, 30 water, 52 food,

Build a large station in Omicron Alpha (minus 100 credits/35 Metals/5 H-F/25 Food/15 Oxy/5 H2O)
This doubles resource income from Omicron Alpha and adds 10 creds per turn.
Call this station: 'Madrid Station'

Remaining resources:
80 creds, 23 metal, 1 oxygen, 47 h-f, 25 water, 27 food.

uhh...Vorticaldwarf? You can't seize Samura's assets without actually fighting them. Anyways, you are attacking our ally. Prepare for War!

dammit, 2 of my allies have quit and 1 just walked away. bloody hell. Codename, come back this instant!

Message to the Outcasts:
We accept your offer to be a policing force in our systems and propose a temporary alliance.

Message to the Corsairs:
For now, a truce seems most in order. After a period of time, perhaps we will reconsider, but for now our two factions should be at rest.

"Neg, Rheinlanders, a declaration of war upon Kusari prohibits us from accepting any truce, as of this moment, the Corsairs declare war on the Rheinlanders."

"Outcasts, your alliance does not yet exist with the Rheinland but does with us, we ask you to honour these terms by declaring war on Rheinland!"

Post Sun Nov 14, 2004 3:35 pm

hmm, just Kusari would be all right, but Kusari, Outcasts, and Corsairs all at once is a little much. Until Codename or Outcast 1-1 return (which they should, cos there's a war going...), sorry gunblader, but you might be on your own.

Codname and Outcast, get your little arses back here RIGHT NOW!
