TO RHEINLAND:
Turn those ships back around this instant! As you may NOT have noticed, I have not declared war on you. If you want me to stay neutral, then those ships will continue on their course to Bretonian space. Anything less will be considered an act of war by the Bretonian government.

TO GAIANS:
Of course we will help you terraform. The supplies are on their way. Expect a little present from me next turn as well.

OOC- Sorry I've been MIA for awhile. I have a lot of exams and final papers coming up, and I have been really busy. I will try to get some of these explores/techs sorted out tonight, and then get the battles tommorow. Thanks for the patience.

Triyun nevermind
you can man the zoners as my zoner calculator is on omputer without online capabilities so.....
I think I will join as a different faction.
Maybe Ageirazor or something what NPC factions are left?

"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

Ok just as a message to all parties attacking everyone else. I have full fleet blockades in Sigma-13 and Hamburg which I haven't lifted yet. so to get to New Berlin through sigma-13 you would technically have to fight the fleet there. Although I think you might (might I say) have the chance of destroying the fleet there. I do not think you would be too interested as your attack forces would be seriously depleted.

Now I am not threatening anyone. But following the war with Rhineland that House has fallen under the protection of Liberty and Bretonia (reason for the downsizing of its military) should this not come to pass and Rhineland continues to turndown handing fleet assets over Liberty will Annex the Hamburg System. and Should Hispania and Kusari forces continue to assault Rhineland Liberty will Annex the Sigma-13 system (thus blocking the quickest routes from Kusari into Rhineland space and further protecting my protectorate.)

I know wildes been a pain the ass. But this brings Liberty to a crossroads that has the possiblity of throughing the entire Liberty Military into a threeway war between Kusari, Hispania and Rhineland as Liberty forces would be forced to engage all factions due to multiple treaty viloations.

(lets confuse the hell out of everyone now lol. Should someone besides Jacob understand this email me at [email protected] )

-President John Sisko of Liberty

umm since there is major conflict going on most of my fleet is trapped where they are so this will sufice for my turn. I build 40 LF Wings and 20 HF Wings

I will continue with the turn tomorrow (sorry I haven't been around most of the days I've been getting ready for my cuba deployment in Febuary)

Here we go. this is my turn. just to let you all know I'm leaving my Blockade in Hamburg in place. if any power attacks into there hopeing to get Rhineland territory Liberty will Annex the system and destroy all hostile ships. I recomend all forces withdrawling from Rhineland space ASAP so that RHineland can get on with its treaty commitments. (and I have a station in Frankfurt that would be under attack should anyone move in. and if I lose that station Liberty will swing into the war. and I have enough forces to cut the belly out of Kusari and crush Hispania from where I'm at.

Well Anyway heres my turn

Ships are ordered to turn back around to Bretonia and Liberty space.

I am sorry for the inconvenience I must have caused you, but my capital and faction was under attack (and you two weren't showing up any time soon). However, now Bretonia and Liberty are back online I don't need those ships.

Hey, if there was a Liberty blockade in Sigma 13 Triyun and VD couldn't have gotten through there, so no one can be attacking me now. In which case, Bretonia and Liberty should move blockades into New Berlin, Frankfurt, and Stuttgart in case Hispania or Kusari decide to attack again.

@ Sisko: It's very true. I'm a royal arse-pain

You may want to wait for 2.0 to finish and join the next one. If one of the "vets" takes a disliking to you they'll very easily be able to wipe the floor with your pitiful remains.

A few things to point out.

A. My forces were already in Sigma 13 before the blockade began to go after Samura. I then moved them into New Berlin. Since I was neutral to Liberty and Bretonia there was nothing to prevent me from entering New Berlin.

B. This is not a war of agression (not to say that I wouldn't like to take over Rheinland if the circumstances had been different). If you notice I specifically targeted your shipyards.

C. I had been planning this strike long before you dismantled your fleet (ask Triyun, I e-mailed him several times about it). In fact I had planned to stop after New Berlin. But such an insult upon our honor (huge mistake saying something like that to the Japanese) we will continue to decimate your millitary forces until your previous defeate looks like a mere skirmish.

It could probably be done with taking over Bundusch, Rheinland's been gutted so it is possible you can survive. Which reminds me to propose something for 3.0.

@ Sisko can I have passage through Sigma 19.

Edited by - Triyun on 12/2/2004 11:04:08 AM

To Bretonia:
Thank you so much for those ships. They will really help our navy in defending Gaian and Bretonian intrests. I was wondering though, when you said you could help me with the terraforming, how many resources and credits did you give me? I just want to make sure so I don't say I have more than I really do. Thanks again for those ships.

Roc, High Commander of the Gaians

Rhineland has NOT been gutted, our military has been downsized but we are under the protection of Liberty and Bretonian forces. And now we are allowed to rebuild.

@ Cardamine: Welcome to the game . Just to tell you, tho, the Outcasts own Bruschal Base in New Berlin. I'm not sure if the Bundschu have any other bases...

So, my turn after a long time...

1. Nuttin to place.

2. I build 5 gunboats (@ Sisko: I'm allowed to build up my military again, right?)

3. The Outcasts and Bundschu are proposed alliances.

4. 2 bomber wings are sent to New York to serve Liberty.

5. I collect 325 credits, plus 2300=2625
commodities left: 365 M/ 439 H-F/ 147 O/ 240 F/ 218 W

Edit: VD, it doesn't matter that your forces where in Sigma 13 before the Liberty Blockade, what matters is Sisko had a HUGE ARSE FLEET BLOCKING THE FREAKIN JUMP GATE, so you aren't in my systems at all.
