No no no, sorry I ain't recalling the attacks. I waited a friggin week !!!!

Gunblader: What the bloody heck you talking bout? The corsairs are our allies, not yours. You are Rhineland's ally, but our struggle in rhineland does not involve you. So buggah out of the conflict!

What's the bloody point though? We're both stuck until Thursday if you do this. Since the battle "issue" won't be resolved until then the battle itself can't be resoved until then. And until the battle is resolved we can't know how it turned out. And if we don't know how it turned out we can't calculate, well, anything or figure out what our next moves are. Meanwhile everybody else is going to go on their merry way but if anyone wants to do anything in any of the systems in dispute they're essentially out of luck becuase nobody knows WTF is going on in there. Just drop the attack so we can keep playing a bit.

I want to post something meaningful today.

And if GB decides to kick yo' punkass outta my house it's too damn bad, foo!

I'm talking about the Corsairs in the actual game of Freelancer. They want to destroy the corsairs.

I refuse to be held hostage until Thursday! I'm posting my turn, and damn the torpedos! Everything between me and Wilde never happened (including my occupation of Vogtland) as far as I'm concerned. If he want's to re-attack tomorrow, fine but I absolutely refuse to wait until Thursday to post on his account. I'm a bastard in that way.

Bah, the two things I don't really need. Phooie.

Will be getting 105 credits a turn should I get to keep the base.

Captain Kill2, you do not own any of the bases you are trying to take over yet. Before you own them, you need the results for the battles against them before you can list them as your own bases. If you were absorbing them into DSE that would be different but you need permission from Liberty to absorb Spa and Cruise and you need permission for Kusari to absorb Kishiro. Just posting you are taking it over and waiting to see if anyone complains does not count as permission. You need to ask them for it. And if you are taking them over through force, the other way to get them, then you need to wait until you get the battle results for them (which will be probably be Thursday) before you can collect credits and commodities from them or say that you own them. So please edit your turns because you don't own Planet Curacuo or any of those other ones you took over. Sorry for the misunderstanding.

@ Codename: ????? Sorry, I'm attacking you in Stuttgart, Frankfurt, and New Berlin. No ships in or out of those systems until the battles are decided. Dude, those are the rules of the freaking game!!! You can't pretend I'm not attacking you. And furthermore, if I win any of those battles you can't place troops in those systems anymore, them not belonging to you. Therefore you can't place troops in Sigma 13, New Berlin, Frankfurt, or Stuttgart. OK???

Heres the battles:

Stuttgart:
32 LF wings, 10 MC VHF wings
vs.
30 LF, 14 HF

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


Frankfurt:
10 H. LF, 5 MC VHF, 30 B. LFs (if they help)
vs.
25 LF, 5 HF

Red Death (former Sigma 13):
15 LF, 10 MC VHF wings
vs.
5 LF wings.

No. Not okay.

Look, the way I see it you attacked me on Monday with your Monday forces but the way you have the battles set up it's your Monday forces against my Sunday forces. It's as if your guys travelled back in time or something. That's problem #1. Problem #2 is that I just want to play the damn game and that's impossible if you persist. If you want to screw yourself over by doing this, fine. But I categorically refuse to have *my* actions dictated to *me* because of *your* stubbornness.

If the battles aren't going to be resolved until tomorrow why not just wait and attack then? Or now? If you post your seventh turn now you can attack me to your hearts content. That would actually make more sense than the current configuration anyway.

Wilde we can't judge the battles until Thursday. Codename suggested that you hold off on the battles until then so you can actually have turns where yuo do something. I guess you could refuse to do that, but it sounds smart to me.

Well, *he* can refuse, but I'll be damned if I don't play the game anyway.

Rheinland is looking for a supplier of Metals. We are willing to trade either food (1:1) or oxygen (2 or 3:1) or pay top dollar. Current trading partners and others are welcome to take advantage of the situation.

- To President Leonhart:

---

Please keep your Vengeance fleet stationed at Planet New Berlin. It should be more than sufficient to repulse any Hessian attack and the Rheinland units it frees up will be most useful elsewhere. Thank you.

Wilde, I understand where you're coming from. I really do. You saw an opening, a weakness in my fleet deployment and you took it. As the battles stood you had a very good chance of winning so you want those battles to be the ones fought. I certainly don't hold that against you. The problem is that the system is flawed, we have to wait anyway and, frankly, I'm not interested in being in limbo for three or four turns. I could write more but I've said it all already.
