@ Triyun: I'm sorry you feel this way. But I can assure you that I and I am pretty sure Jacob has not cheated. Granted we are emensly powerful but thats because we've always negotiated well and hid our buildup in plain sight. I was told that you can change your movements within the same day as long as you don't add forces to or from combat without a general retreat or an agreement between both parties. One was reached between Wilde, Jacob, and Myself.

My military forces may seem out of balance but remember I started off with 4 Battleships and two Capital Shipyards. Let alone the fact I quickly maxed out my maximum number of Stations per system on resource collecting and in a couple of cases almost came close to maxing out the total number of stations allowed of 8.

If you want in the next Game I'll play as the Corsairs/Outcasts House Hispania from the Begining or as Rhineland one of the other handicaped powers at the begining. Remember I did do pretty well considering I didn't have that much space to expand such as everyone else.

I ask that you do not be too upset. this is after all only a game and although you did do some great political work I had an even better Maskivoka in place covering the build up of both Liberty and Bretonia plus our IMG and Kusari Allies.

Well I have said my peice and just ask that you not be too upset for us playing the game just that little bit better.

-President John Sisko of Liberty

@ Triyun: You should have posted you were sending help. You didn't, so tbbbbth!

And to everyone who has any doubts, I DID agree to the edited surrender proposal put down by Sisko and Jacob, they're not making this up. Now, gunblader--it's not an illegal move. You can move forces into a system that you're at war with, but not through it.

@ Sisko: I'll downsize my military after we take Wutai and Sigma 13, k? I need alll the help I can get.

--AS OF NOW, LIBERTY AND BRETONIA GAIN THE DESIGNS FOR RHINELAND BOMBERS--

It's interesting, you know...everyone I'm killing now is an ally who turned their back on me....

Message to Hispania--You should not have turned your backs on us and failed to bring aid. Perhaps we could have beaten Liberty and Bretonia together, even taking the empires for ourselves, but now they are my allies and masters. Hispania shall rue the day it forgot Rhineland.

Message to Samura--You, too, should not have turned away. A combined alliance of Hispania, Rhineland, and Samura would be invincible. Now, I am sorry that I will have to take from you your lives and home systems.

Message to the BHG-- I have no sympathy for you, as you know. Whining piece of filth that you are.
this is going to be my movements that should have occurred yesterday:

1. All forces in Stuttgart and all forces in New Berlin minus 10 LF wings per system to attack Wutai. Forces: 91 LF, 3 HF, 1 cruiser, 4 gunboats, 6 VHF, 1 destroyer, 1 battleship.

2. All forces in Sigma 13 plus all forces in Weimar minus 10 LF wings to attack Hispania at Sigma 13. Furthermore, 30 LF wings from Hamburg will come to help. Altogether, that's 105 LF wings, 3 HF, 3 VHF, 3 gunboats, 1 destroyer, 7 cruisers, and 1 battleship

@ jacob: remember to factor those ships in!

After victory, all remaining forces will cross into Sigma 17 to help Liberty, and from there to Sigma 19.

Edit: good, gunblader you're going out with a laugh...admirable

Also, Sisko, I still have control over the bases in Hudson and Bering, just you have control over the systems.

WOW, it feels good to be on the winning side.

Gaia news

Changes of War
A suprising move has occured in the war. Liberty and Bretonia forces have allied with Rhineland and all 3 Houses have begun to attack the new House Hispania and it's allies. The leader of Hispania, Triyun, was furious with the Houses, especially Rhineland, his former ally. Rhineland has declared that it has turned due to the lack of aid from Hispania when Liberty and Bretonia invaded. More news to come.

Battleship!
Liberty has recently given us a battleship in Edinburgh. High Commander Roc is overjoyed at this and has told us that he has allied with Liberty and the IMG along with Bretonia in their alliance and that is why the battleship was given. The new battleship, named Battleship Sydney after the capital of Austrailia, is stationed in Edinburgh and is the official flagship of the Gaians.

Question:
1)Since it is three againt one, it be fair to take contol of what Triyun had since we merged into Hispania. It seems fair to me.

2) I propose that we have a real good fight. Gve me a couple of turns to build a fleet big if to put up I minute amount of resistance. If i'm going out i'll go out swinging .

IF NOT, well:

@Jacob
Just so you know, I wasn't an ally with Hispania and I wasn't friendly with them. I was perfectly happy to let you rip them apart without getting involved and possibly lend you some aid in attacking. BUUUUUUUUT you seem to want to blow me up for no reason and I'm NOT ok with that. You have a while to withdraw your forces before i post up my forces in Omicron Alpha (In case you didn't see the post saying 'I am not going to join Hispania.') Of course, an agreement could be worked out if the conditions are ok. It'll take me a while to get my ship list up but when i do, i'll post them.

(Still waiting for Brushcal attack results)

Before ANYBODY asks....
I had my username BEFORE the game even existed. Thank you.

@ everyone attacking me-
PLEASE DO NOT ATTACK THE REAL FREELANCER!!! He was not allied with hispania or friendly with me. Destroy me, fine, but please don't destroy him.

BHG turn :22

Credits:
240+50=290

resources:
51 O/ 101 H-F/ 94 F/ 266 H2O/ 8 M

The 12 LF wings with alliance station will fight to the very end, and if possible at all, retreat to another samura station in the system.

redemption squadron is gonna get split up into it's 4 fighters.

Moving one to omicron Alpha
Moving another to the bottom unknown
third to top unknown
4th to try and make it to edinburgh.

good thing for me that bretonia never rescinded it's peace treaty. That last fighter should be pretty safe.

Still need the answers on my 3 explore parties.

Post Sat Nov 27, 2004 7:35 am

sorry gunblader, but I'm pretty sure Sisko and Jacob are going to wipe you and Triyun off the map entirely. It's not likely they're going to let you build up your army either (which, if you don't mind me saying, is pretty big already--You have a ton of Rhineland cap ships)

Edit: we're not attacking a station, we're attacking your fighters. And we'll fight to the very end (meaning victory for us), so just kiss those wings' arses goodbye.

Furthermore...where's that one wing coming from? none of those fighters, just so you know, can go through Rhineland territory. Or Liberty. Or Kusari, i think.

I'm not going to attack TRFL, don't worry. I don't know about Sisko and Jacob.

As of right now, Samura industries withdrawls from Hispania, and Denounces Hispania, I now join Bretonia, Liberty, and Rheinland to help defeat the remaining Hispania forces.

@ Jacob- I wasn't a lame excuse, it was for real. Thank you for understanding. I accept your proposals.(email)

If you want to know where that wing came from, retrace my turns back to when I got kicked to pieces the first time. And I still need my exploration results. *Crosses his fingers and hopes he at least gets a terraformable planet so he can go stick the entire place in some out of the way pocket of the galaxy.*

TO ALL:

Let's just get this RPG done with in a quick fashion. We've already had a lot of people quit because they were not satisfied with the game, and I don't want anything thing else to happen that will mess up the game further. I don't see why Liberty and Bretonia want to attack gunblader, I think they should have just asked him to go in there and finish off the BHG like they wanted. If GB refused, then they would have a reason to attack him. I read his email, and I understand why he is so angry about being attacked like that. GB, it is up to you, but I think that you should tell them what is going on, but unless he does, I will not tell anyone.
Triyun, I am sorry about you leaving, and I understand that it is difficult to lose sometimes, especially after the very excellent way you played this whole time. On the contrary, I congratulate GB for the admirable way he has gone about with the final part of this game.
I am sad that aspects of this RPG have gotten out of my control, and I am strongly considering leaving CYOF after the end of this game. I am afraid that I cannot handle the responsibilities of being a judge any longer. You will have to find a better person for the job.
Also, I wish to apologize to anyone who was angry with me for judging and playing this part of the game. I realize in hindsight that that may not have been the bes choice for myself of for the game in general. I was blinded by my intense desire to actually play the game, rather than sit on the sidelines and watch others play the game that I designed and poured myself into. I am very sorry to those who are angry at me for making that choice.
I also wish to apologize to anyone I offended by my occasional outbursts here in this game. At times I have gotten angry at other players, which I regret, and have probably offended others. I realize that if I cannot control myself, then I should not be expected to try to control the rest of you as a judge.
I will stick the rest of this game out, but don't expect to see a lot of me in CYOF 3. I was considering helping DSQrn write up the rules for the game, by editing and giving suggestions to his CYOF 2.1 (which you can find out about at www.freewebs.com/cyof) and then maybe even playing the game a bit. I am still consdiering that. Despite how much I would like to, I am afraid that it would be for the best intrest for the game for me to stay away.
So, consider this my resignation announcement. If you have comments or questions, then post them. I doubt it will change my mind, but you never know.

Richardson your not getting out of Wutai. THERES A BATTLE GOING ON! you can't enter nor leave a system once battle has been joined. You Won't be allowed safe haven anywhere I will kill you next turn should that be the case.
