OOC: No, I'm attacking the Agiera base in Frankfurt for the corporate alliance refusing to pay tribute. I'm saying if they give you any bases in Rheinland and work out a income sharing arrangement with you then I won't attack them. That also goes for a sharing arrangement they may make with the Hessians.

Ok. Codename, now its war (OOC: Triyun I can fight this turn right?)

I place 10 VHF wings in Red Death (former Sigma 13) 10 LF wings at Vogtland in Dresden.

Move 10 VHF wings and 10 LF wings to attack Helgoland (Rhineland, small) guarded by 5 LF wings.

All Hessian forces in Frankfurt attack Rhineland for control of the system. We expect the Bundschuh to give us help on this.

Move all other forces in Sigma 13 to New Berlin and 10 LF wings from Vogtland and attack Rhineland for control of the system. I move all forces from Vogtland, 7 LF wings from Freital and 5 LF wings from Kali to Stuttgart and attack it for control of the system.

32 LF wings, 15 MC VHF wings

vs.

30 LF, 14 HF

35 LF wings, 40 MC VHF wings
vs.
45 LF, 10 HF

10 H. LF, 5 MC VHF, 30 B. LFs (if they help)

25 LF, 5 HF

oops I forgot to post this: I destroy Vogtland. BOOM.

OOC: Yes you can fight, OOC I have no problem with it. IC I do though have a few objections.

what are those?

If I pay the protection fee will you call off your raid, Triyun? If the answer is yes, then I'll gladly give you the ten credits.

I want a 10 credit tribute per turn from both the DSE and Agiera. But if you want to pay it for Agiera that is fine I'll delay my offensive for a turn.

Movement: Corsairs forces are pulled back and attack the planet Kurille instead.

Building an additional HF Wing.

Codename, you're already in battle. its not legal to move stuff into any systems where there's a battle going on. Therefore, you can't move anything into New Berlin, Frankfurt, Red Death (Sigma 13's new name), or Stuttgart. Furthermore, battle takes place with only the attacking force and defending force in a system in any circumstance. Therefore anything you place there becomes active only after the battle. Any researches decided after a battle is declared do not count in the current battle.

I move 1 LF wing from Kali to Dresden to engage Rhineland forces there.

That's dumb though. I could have started a battle just as easily and thus denied you movements. I'd agree if I had already made my moves for the turn but as I hadn't you can simply consider those that I made ones I was planning on making anyway. Enjoy the battles.

Edit: 1 LF wing vs 20 LF wings? You crazy?

Edited by - Codename on 12/27/2004 8:55:20 AM

It may be dumb, but those are the rules.

Edit: but now, you can't move anything in or out of dresden. you HAVE to fight me. with your 6 gunboats and battleship that by the way you still have in there.

Look Wilde, if you want to fight me this is how it's going to be. If you don't like your chances then just retreat. You made your moves, I made mine. I moved my stuff out of Dresden before you moved anything in. Dresden currently has 20 LF wings and that's it. You can't move stuff retroactively. I like my chances the way things are, I can't help it if the picture isn't so rosy for you.

But it is true that you can't move any forces in or out from a system where a battle is raging.

I had my start of turn moves. They are sacrosanct. Battles should *not* interfere with anyone's standard movements.

Code, get over it. Those are the moves I made, and in real time they were before yours. If a battle starts, it is only with the forces in that system beforehand with the stats the ships had beforehand. Therefore,your movements are invalid, and until you alter them all those ships are still in Dresden.

Now for the rest of my turn...

I build 10 VHF wings
