The Control Your Own Faction RPG: Part 3, The Age of War- Th

Wed Dec 22, 2004 9:12 am by vorticaldwarf

I'm baack. Here are my ship stats (I would suggest everyone else post theirs as well)

LF: 6 FA, 4 FD, 1 CA, 1 CD
HF: 4 FA, 3 FD, 4 CA, 5 CD
VHF: 9 FA, 9 FD, 3 CA, 3 CD (fear the wrath of the mighty titan bwahahaha)
Bomber: 0 FA, 1 FD, 8 CA, 7 CD

BTW wilde and Triyun, Check with jacob to be sure but I believe the rule is that you can buy ships from each other but you can't simply transfer the designs. The only situation where that would be allowed would be if house hispania formed (and it won't since I agree with Triyun on the fighters vs. cap ships).

Er, Wilde, are you allowed to draw on the resources of your allies? I'm pretty sure you need to have some sort of trade agreement in order to do that. (And trade agreements require freighters of some sort). But, if you can then I'll just nationalize all Rheinland corporations and use their resources for myself. Fair's, fair.

Wed Dec 22, 2004 10:02 am by ww2jacob

Wilde, the rule about placing hidden bases is that you a or your ally must already have a hidden base in the system. Sorry if I wasn't clear enough. You may re-place your bases if you so desire. I will edit a more clear bit about that into the rules.

Rheinland Turn Two

1. Placement:
- Place Ingolstadt Base (Small Station) in Dresden
- Place all new HF wings (15) in Dresden
- Place all 6 Gunships in Dresden

2. Purchase:
- Purchase 5 new HF wings
- Research 1 Fighter upgrade (HF FD)

3. Communications:
A message to all of Sirius:

I hope you can all see the duplicitousness of the "Pirates League". Their chief spokesperson, the Hessian leader, has shown that he is little more than a two-faced liar and scoundrel. He claims to have the best interests of the Rheinland proletariat in mind yet he has consistently shown that he does not. I made an unprecedented offer to the Bundschuh, one that could have easily solved the problems the Hessian leader claims to oppose to violently. What did he do? He counselled the Bundschuh to refuse. Then, to add insult to injury, he accepted a deal brokered by another corporation. These are not the acts of a person who loves his fellow man and seeks to improve the lives of the worker. These are the acts of a vainglorious lunatic. He must not be allowed to strengthen himself. I know that he will attack me soon and do not think that you are safe either. The Murderers League will not honor their treaties, they do not know what honor is. All they know is death and they will vists destruction upon us all if we do not stop them.

I implore all factions of Sirius to rise up against this growing threat. Do not do it for my sake. Do it for the good of us all.

- Extend offers of Peace and Alliance with all non-Members of the Murderers League (former allies are welcome). Any parties who accept my offer will be given monetary rewards and the location of Vogtland. And my offer to the Bundschuh will remain in effect until the grace period is over.
- Offer to Trade Food and/or Oxygen (especially oxygen, I got a crapload of that) for Metals and/or H-Fuel. Interested parties can apply via e-mail.

4. Movements:

I gladly accept Liberty's offer of an alliance. Can I count on your support against the Murderers League?

@ Triyun - Whoops. I blame the calc. It needs to be fixed, I guess.

Edited by - Codename on 12/22/2004 11:20:50 AM

Wed Dec 22, 2004 11:21 am by Wilde

And also--Jacob was very clear on this, this time around you can only upgrade one of your stats per ship type. And you can only upgrade by 1 point.

@ Jacob: Oops, sorry about that. I'll change it now.

To Codename: Go ahead, nationalize your corporations. That's basically what I asked you to do in the first place, numbskull!

I did not change my mind. I told the Bundschuh not to accept your offer because the proposal was a vain bribe attempt on your part to rid you of an enemy and then use that new ally to hunt me down. I was originally fine with the DSE proposal because it is an offer put forth by that corporation in order to end the fighting between us. They treat their workers fairly, and would manage the bases far better than Daumann or Kruger. Now stop spreading propaganda about us and our allies.

To liberty: I propose a peace treaty. We have never attacked you, nor are we unfriendly with you. We are not friendly with the Rogues or Xenos currently. Better our two factions leave each other alone.

Gunblader check your PM's at your site.

Wed Dec 22, 2004 11:30 am by Codename

Actually Wilde you said this:

"Transmission to Rhineland: If you do not immediately declare the corporations of Kruger Minerals Inc., Republican Shipping, and Daumann Industries illegal in Rhineland space, you will be declared Enemies of the State and attacked without pity."

in the first place.

Hessian Leader:

I am sick of your lies and baseless accusations, Haalein. You have never set foot in one of the great factories owned by Daumann or Kruger, nor would you know hardship if it hit you squarely in the face. You are too caught up in you own cult of personality to see the truth. This is tragic because you could spell the end of us all.

President Leonhart:

Please, sir, do not ally yourself with terrorists and murderers. What can they offer you? Nothing. They seek only to dominate the weak through power, rhetoric and drugs. As they gain strength we are weakened. They wish to ally with you out of fear. Fear that you will join me and fight against them. They know they cannot hope to defeat the united Houses so they seek to drive us apart. Join me and together we can rid Sirius of their foul infestation.

James Taylor, IMG Guildmaster:

I see that you are in need of food. The Rheinland farms have long been renowned for their food prouction. I would gladly trade my surplus food for metal and/or H-fuel at cost (1 for 1, in other words). If you are interested please contact me via e-mail or post here

Wilde and Codename, shuttup! Its getting very annoying. No explanations on who started it or whatever, just shuttup for a while.

Wed Dec 22, 2004 11:45 am by Codename

Shut up yourself.
