What do you propose? We are listening.

All,

The RCC government has returned from it's vacation, and would like to mention the follow to the Galactic COuncil

1)In our absence, one of our captains colonized a planet in the Woostoid system. We have just ordered that colony ceded to the THermolians as part of our effort to rejuvenate their economy.

2) In that same vein, we will cede to the Thermolians at least one warp-opening ship in the next month.

3) We would urge that the status of demilitarization and relations with non-COuncil members be taken up publicly, before relations further deteriorate.

4) Further to that, we beleive all Council deliberations should be held publicly, in this forum. While we fully expect private discussions amongst concerned parties, the deliberations of a council body should be public(OOC: and I'd be very dissappointed if there *wasn't* any plotting going on behind the scenes!)

I wonder what is plotting here...
Just been aware of the existence of this "council", and I see that Wendigo are quite talkative. I wonder why they haven't replied to my private Messages during the Last months, then.

First, let me tell you that I disagree with Wendigo demand for free access to systems once controled by infamous Electrum integrists.

They have never help us to fight them, and moreover they have always provided resources to our ennemies. So they should be glad to have received Electrum ships and planets, and should keep quiet at the moment.

I'll refer to members of the White Coalition for Peace and Wealth, to see if this place is a good place to discuss the galaxy issues.

We of the Pride are not demanding that sole access to those be given to us, the wendigo; (I assume that's what you meant by free access) we are demanding that we be given ownership of them. Should you want the right to colonize those systems we have asked for, you shall recieve that right; we are only asking to the intergalactic community to recognize our right to give you that right by ways of barter and diplomacy.

It is true that we have not aided your nation and other nations militarily during your struggles against the Electrum Empire; and if I understood you correctly, yes, we did maintain diplomatic links and trade with Electrum, and in doing so, possibly the deis. But I ask you, my dear marshal, what would you have done in my position? Declare open war against Electrum, and sacrifice the entire pride to 100-strong dreadnought fleets of his? Do you really think we had a chance with our defunct police force of light cruisers against his armada? We nations that lack in force have in large quantities of wisdom; wisdom that has saved us from being a martyr to your so-called heroic struggle against Electrum and others. And you also say that we had supplied Electrum with our resources? I believe that you are mistaken, for nations that control 20 planets cannot logically feed the war machine of an empire that controls 100.

As for your Last statement regarding our outspokenness, marshal, with all due respect, you will hear our voice everywhere, and anywhere, and at anytime and at all times, until we are truly "glad".

OoC: Alarikf, yes, politics are fun. I'd love to continue territorial disputes with just about everyone in the game, especially WarDad and Trooper , but unfortunatey, I'll be without internet access until July 12th, due to my moving of dwellings. I'll try to issue orders and queue up on things so that the game could run on schedule during my absence.

OoC: Trooper, what do you mean by PMs? I don't remember getting any PMs of yours?

We of the Flesh Eaters hive are small, yet we dealt the first and earliest blow in the Electrum war, sacrificing dozens of ships but glassing all planets in one of the Electrum home systems.

True, we accepted a non-agression pact from the Electrum after, but our fleets had already been reduced to a few survivors, and we had no other force in the area.

We have now rebuilt our battlefleets and stand ready to enforce the will of the Alliance. We stand ready to reclaim our worlds in Buber system, but will require several turns to construct adequate troop transports... troops, luckily, we have in plenty.

We shall feast only on the flesh of those that resist... Klingon is rather tough and gamey.

Klingons will not be a problem for too long. I had to regroup my troop transports this month, and next month I'll be ready for some surgical strikes...

Cyber Empires will be taking a long 4th of July weekend, 1st to 4th.

I think others will also.
So maybe we should be on Last Player Upload, 1st to 6th of July?


BTW: I can understand Terran C's postion with the Electrum. Well spoken mate!
