Corsairs Turn 1


Income:
1st turn: 280
Ground: 50
Base: 90
Total: 140/turn

Commodity income:
20 M, 21 G

Fleets: None.

Point Distribution:
LF (9, 4): FA 4, CA 1, FD 3, CD 1
HF (13, 5): FA 3, CA 5, FD 2, CD 3
VHF (17, 6): FA 6, CA 6, FD 4, CD 4

I am going to claim control of Omega 41. If anyone doesn't like it, bite me

Furthermore, I am now taking measures to seize Omega 5 under control. I am sending out 10 LF and 1 VHF wings to search for Freistadt.

Moving: 20 LF, 20 VHF Omicron Gamma--Sigma 13.

Being that there is no current House presence dominating Sigma 13, we are going to claim it in the name of the Corsairs in order to prevent Chaos from erupting. ALG and the GMG will be allowed to carry on their activities therein, and Kusari and Rhineland ships to pass through.

Message to Chancellor DSQrn: the case being that we are now in control of Sigma 13, we have an interesting proposition for you. Long have both our factions shared a common goal--the elimination of the Hessians. It is time for us to overcome our differences. In return for a military alliance and building rights in Sigma 13 and Dresden, we will give you complete and total control of Sigma 13 and building rights in every system with a Corsair dominating presence, saving Omicron Gamma, and we will push our every movement towards eliminating Hessian forces across Sirius.

Attack: On Naha, full force in Sigma 13 (this at the behest of Chancellor DSQrn, after a private channel meeting (MSN )

Message to Picard: Our two factions have been fighting long in a fruitless battle caused out of nothing but lust for blood. For a while, at least, let us have a brief peace between the Outcasts and the Corsairs.

Message to King Roc of Bretonia: You may have noticed no ships moved into Bretonian space this turn. And neither shall they, nor will any Corsair ship attack a Bretonian ship. That is a solid promise. All that we ask in return is that you leave our actions in the Omegas completely unhindered.

To Zoners: Non agression pact accepted.

Building: two small stations, 150 credits. 8 VHF wings, 2 LF wings.

Placing:
1 small station, Arcadio, in Omicron Theta--moving 10 LF from Tripoli to guard it.
1 small station, Buendia, in Sigma 13
4 VHF at Cadiz
4 VHF at Crete
2 LF at Crete


Bases:
Planet Crete, Omicron Gamma (hidden system)--12 LF wings, 20 HF wings, 14 VHF wings
Tripoli Shipyard, Omicron Gamma (hidden system)--20 LF wings
Leon Base, Omega 41 (hidden base, large)--30 LF wings
Cadiz Base, Omega 5 (hidden base, large)--25 LF wings, 3 VHF
Buendia, Sigma 13 (small)--20 LF wings, 10 VHF wings (currently engaged in battle against GMG at request of Chancellor DSQrn)
Arcadio, Omicron Theta--10 LF wings.

Did I do that right?

And ww2jacob, I really like the rules! This game looks like fun!

Yes you did, Dagger_Ace. I am proud, since you are one of the best new players that we've had in a while. Your turn was very good, and you used my template for it nicely.

And thanks about the rules. I do appreciate that.


TO ALL:

I forgot something important in the rules. There is a grace period of no attacking other players for the first three turns of the game. This is to help everyone get on their feet and for the new players to learn the game. We did the same thing in CYOF 3, so a lot of you should remember it.

Just OOT Dimplomacy, Okay'ed from the top

IC:
To Wilde, leader of corsairs:
This is acceptable to Rhienland so long as you do not hassle ships in dresden and you act on proper behavior. If so then consider it a deal

To Dagger_Ace, leader of Zoners
Agreed Rhienland hopes for a step by step trade relationship with the zoner. As a act of good faith you are herby authorized to erect 1 large station in sigma-13 if and when we recieve it.

i dont suffer fools gladly , in fact i dont suffer them at all

TO ZONERS:

I appreciate your offer, kind Dagger_Ace of the Zoners. I gladly accept, and hope that we can work together to make the borderworlds safe for everyone.

Signed,
Jacob III

TO CORSAIRS:

SInce you are the new owner of Sigma-13, I would like to express my wishes that the IMG be able to operate in that system as well. We only wish to open a small mining operation there, and we would be more than happy to help you police the system.

Signed,
Jacob III

Diplomacy

---

Deep Space Engineering has an exclusive contract with fellow Liberty company Ageira Technologies to build Jump Gates and Trade Lanes throughout the Sirius sector.

---

I offer:
Alliance to Liberty goverment
Coalition to Ageira Technologies
Non-agression pact to all lawful factions, especially Bretonia, Kusari, and Rheinland.

Deep Space Engineering also offers the construction of new Jump Gates, Trade Lanes and bases to all of our allies, for a price of course. We will not attack or help with attacking anyone, but we will gladly send our ships to defend an attacked allied base and we will welcome any help with defense of our bases.

Relationships
Very Friendly - None
Friendly - Ageira, Liberty
Supportive - Bretonia, Rheinland, Kusari
Neutral - Zoners, all other lawful factions
Unsupportive - Junkers
Unfriendly - all other unlawful factions
Very Unfriendly - None

I hope thats all...

OOC:
I think you forgot me in the listing...
And 1 question: Is there any difference between connection of systems via Jump Holes and Jump Gates? I think no, but I want to know if I have overlooked something... Building JG's is the main source of income for DSE in FL.
If not, I will do that just for the role-play aspect of this game.

Very nice, Lord Emporer! Another excellent turn from a new player!

Wow, thank you ww2jacob. I thought I would have done something wrong.

IMG, I am glad that we can work together. I hope that we can build a strong and lasting partnership.

Rheinland, Hopefully, we can be lasting allies. Do I have building rights in Rheinland, because I would like to build a base in or near Rheinland.

Zoners: This may change but for now we will allow you to construct small bases in Dresden and Stuggart as many as you desire, and one large base in Sigma-13. In time when our friendship grows Rhienland will give your more elbow room.

i dont suffer fools gladly , in fact i dont suffer them at all

And I think there is an error in the xcel calculator - I dont build any GB/CR/BS, and it shows -10 for their total cost.

EDIT- Sorry ww2jacob.

Edited by - Dagger_Ace on 3/28/2005 2:05:10 PM

I mean if there is some difference, when I go for example Texas -> California (I must use JH) and if I go Texas -> NY (both options available) and California -> NY (only JG)
Like, if unlawful factions must fight some defences at JG's and lawful ones cant find JH's or something like this.

And no problem about forgetting me - we are all humans and humans make mistakes

Edited by - Lord Emperor on 3/28/2005 1:51:01 PM

@Dagger Ace- What are you playing at? Impersonating me?

Crazy kids these days, anything to be in charge!!


Edited by - ww2jacob on 3/28/2005 2:05:57 PM

@Lord Emperor- I think that you are responding to Dagger_Ace's humiliating impersonation of me. I too am sorry for leaving you off of the list, but I do understand what you are talking about. In reality, there is no difference except that capital ships don't pass through jumphole routes, but fighters can. So, it makes no difference to fighters, but it would to capital ships. And for your query about the calc, I am afraid that it is a problem that you will just have to live with for now. If it messes up your turn calculations too much, then I can try to fix it and email you the fixed version.

@Dagger_Ace- Once I recovered from the shock of your message, I realized how good you were at impersonating me. You must have really read through CYOF 3, because that was a good performence right there! (Except for the small brain part. ) Oh well, I guess I am not that mad at you, but you did mess things up as poor Lord Emperor actually thought that you were I.
