????

I thought send a TR treaty ????
My bad.

But with the current turn lenght, it is a pain to remember what happened turn after turn.

In fact, the whole game is becoming a pain for me, I should have played otherwise.

So should anybody want to take care of a healthy empire, I am open to give the position.

For any new players, here's some old info on the game.
Gotta post an update I guess.

So is this thread going to get some more stories?
Just wandering if it is worth my time to post stuff (Need to do something to make me feel better about the sorry state of the empire I took over

)

Yep, I'll surely post here sometime!

I will too, as soon as I am finished with plotting and diplomacy.

First Speaker was deeply troubled. Despite friendly words and agreements several races with which they had established treaties with where clearly in violation of those agreements.

Yet tentative mind scans of these races showed they feared no retaliation from the Alteri so felt free to do as they willed.

He and others had come to accept that one must wield some strength to gain treaties with other species, but now it seemed that they must also possess even greater strength for the others to respect these agreements.

First Speaker reached into the depths of the Alteri collective memories and sought out the presence of specific individuals.

As he located them their minds joined and information freely flowed between them... freely between those who where Firsts. Thousands of voices joined into One.
*Assimilation of alien species... proceeds... slow... steady... sooner... not priority!
Ships... more... sooner... military... larger... faster... stronger... armored... shielded... colonize race... new... within year... complete!
Planets... good... MORE... faster... treaty violation... hostile... not listening... no respect... military... EXPAND!
Research... shields... armor... selves... understand... ships... GREATER UNIFY!
Resources... excellent... good... acceptable... USE!*

So it went time and time again until all issues had been met as the conflicting views of each melded into a single new mind a combination of them all... decisions were made... and they seperated, each seperate once again. Now agreed on a unified course of action, a course chosen with perfect understanding of each other and with perfect agreement.

If others would listen only to force then force is what they would have. Those who honored their treaties would be respected. Those who did not would learn why they should. Within the year the first true vessels of the Alteri Space Navy would be designed and constructed. Then they would request that those who had broken faith honor the old agreements. Those who did not would be made to honor them.

________________
I am altering my approach to this some. I didn't really like the way I was doing it before. Too event driven and specific and not enough story. A few alterations to how I am portraying the race as well... still fits perfectly within the in game description, perhaps better than before even.

Hope you enjoy.
