TO RHEINLAND:
That is an outrage!
You had better watch your comments if you want peace.

TO GAIANS:
Of course, we would be glad to donate to you.
I will include it in this turn's amounts.

To Bretonia:
Thanks you for helping us to build our navy. I will edit my turn to incorperate it (as long as that is ok).

Building last 4 squads of Lfs. Moving all fighters to bases.

Prepping for building the hf squads, which will have to wait every other turn to do.

Don't worry, the Rhineland government has fired their spokesman who made said comments. We do not wish to be slanderous, but merely ask that Bretonia not attack us. Our government apologizes profusely for the lack of respect for the Bretonian government.

@ jacob: My battle results should be up soon, right?

No I mean being more proactive in the denouncment of the Corsairs as a house. As Liberty has done.

EDIT: BTW all I'm on MSN right now if you want to chat with me.

Edited by - Sisko03 on 11/24/2004 4:19:16 PM

ok, thanks. I was wondering about that.

um...I'm on pretty good terms with both Hispania (or the Corsiars) and Liberty now...

@ jacob: What are the Bretonian relations with the Corsairs currently? I need to know before I make any decision.

So...Rhineland turn 22. I think. (I've lost count)
1. I place 10 LF wings in Stuttgart.

2. I build 1 battleship and 3 bomber wings. Also, I research Heavy Cruiser CA for two points.

3. The offer is still online to Bretonia. We can negotiate it.

4. nothing, I think.

5. I collect 325 credits, plus 2090= 2415 credits
commodities left: 220 M/ 209 H-F/ 102 O/ 266 F/ 178 W

I keep on coming back to WWI on this game (having just read All Quiet On the Western Front by Erich Remarque), so here's my basic battle position:
Dresden and Stuttgart: Southern Front. An attack from Bretonia will most likely come through here from Omegas 11 or 7
Hudson and Bering: Eastern Front. If Liberty attacked (not that it's going to, right ), it would be through here.
Sigma 13: Northern Front. It belongs to the Corsairs, of course, but Kusari would push through here to get at New Berlin or Weimar.
Currently, it is "All Quiet" on all fronts, but attacks are most likely to come from the South.

@ Triyun: If a Kusari force attempts to go through Sigma 13, will you prevent them from crossing? cos otherwise I have to have a force stationed there.

Well to inform you Wilde the better your relations with the Corsairs the worse they will become with Liberty.

Edited by - Sisko03 on 11/24/2004 5:03:42 PM

No, I kinda knew that. I just need to know if I have better relations with Liberty (and worse relations with the Corsairs) would that also have an adverse affect on Bretonia's relations with me.

Edited by - [ACWilde on 11/24/2004 5:09:16 PM

Liberty Cannot Speak for Bretonia but I would hope so.

Meaning...you hope that Bretonia's relation to the Corsairs mirrors your own? In which case I would want to side with Liberty (or remain neutral).

LBN Breaking News:

---

Liberty Officials report that as the Fleet returns from its battle against BHG bases in both Kusari and Bretonia space Liberty warships are to ralley in the Colorado and Texas systems. Undergoing repairs and replacing losses sustained in combat with the BHG's skilled pilots Liberty Military Officials state that while the fleet did not leave the BHG system of Freedom and the bases in Shikoku and Manchester with a loss they declined to comment on the number of casulties suffered during the conflict.

With tensions rising with the Corsairs as they attempt to build their own House in the Sirius Cluster, the Liberty Navy has been ordered to begin training for the possible event of clashing with Corsari Bomber's. Rapid orders have gone out for the construction of Gunboats and Intercepter Fighters to counter the Corsairs advantage in its Bomber Force.

President John Sisko announced today in a press release aimed at discouraging the Corsairs from going through with their plan to build both Bombers and Capital ships. Should you build both Capital Warships and posses an advanced Bomber force you will be targeted by the Liberty Navy and pray that does not happen.

TO ALL HOUSES:
Who in god's name gave you the idea that we will and want to start a war and attack Liberty. TO QUOTE TRIYUN(sort of):
Hispania will remain neutral (or something like that)

The only negative comment we have made is that our relationship with Kusari mirror Kusari's relationship with Samura and if Kusari does something bad to Samura, Hispania would seize all assests of Kusari in Hispania space.

From: Gunblader, Owner and CEO of Samura Heavy Industries, and Vice President of Hispania.( I hope this clears things up.

Most people fear the unknown.
Most people haven't met me.

Tis not your intentions that bother us at the current time but your preoccupation with Capital ship production. Should you - anyone for that matter - be allowed to construct Capital ships and Bombers you would have an unfair advantage over the other factions of the Sirius Cluster.

Liberty Has also noticed Rhinelands interests in producing Bombers and vocally condems this act. Should Rhineland continue building such craft they will be on dangerous grounds with Liberty. I will still garrantee the safety of Rhineland tourists and the construction sites of our previous agreement should hostilities break out over this concern.

Umm
Liberty Lighten up
Don't go to war wih them, as they will have bombers and you won't
So join with teh rogues or somethin and get bomber right?
As of now the Zoners are in negotiations in joining House Hispania.
Turn 22 eh?
**** I need my copy of EXCEL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Does anyone have a comlete copy of my baselists (including built bases?)

"I like liberty rogues, they make a funny little popping sound when they die"
10 points to whoever guess what I messed with for that
