President Korian posted 04-21-99 05:17 PM ET
The Upper and Lower houses of the FSD have recently voted that if the Q Imperium does not agree to our plan for their observation post within five, (5,) days there will be a declaration of war. We do not wish for this to happen, but as I have said before, we are not afraid.
President Korian of the Federated States of Democracy
Ambassador Collins posted 04-21-99 05:23 PM ET
If worst come to worst, I will be willing to support you.
JT 3 posted 04-21-99 05:27 PM ET
Same here.
AoYoS posted 04-21-99 05:28 PM ET
OOC: Korian please read our vendetta declaration in the rp- Hercluxian Republic on the Acheans.
You have the support of the Hercluxian Republic as it has been noted that the Q Imperium has been spotted trying to make an observation post on Alpha Truix.
We do not condone spying, and don't tolerate it.

AoYoS. I am uncertain as to what you are talking about. We have sent no ships into your sector. If you are referring to our embassy station, which is OUTSIDE of your space, you are sorely mistaken, as it is over a full light-year from Alpha Triux.
As for you, President Korian: Please see my other comment, regarding a potential way of defusing this bomb. We have no wish for a war either, but we will defend our nation with zeal, employing any and all means necessary.

Okay, now I need to ask Korian 1 thing: Where is all his territory? I have been lost in all the land claiming.
AoYoS posted 04-21-99 06:22 PM ET
In regards to you reply, Q, we have seized a small probe vessel of Q Imperium Origin and interrogated the crew. They say there mission was to establish an "observation post" on Alpha Truix.

AoYoS.
If you refuse to obtain access to information by any means, solely because the means neccessary to obtain that information, you have uselessly crippled yourself. The future is now, where information is the basic crux of all successful campaigns, whether military or political or economic.
In any case, if I do chose to spy on you, you cannot stop me. You will not know that I spy on you, nor will you be able to prevent it. In the same fashion, I cannot prevent you from doing the same to me.
Also, you may have seized a vessel, but know this: we don't send vessels out to establish posts. We don't send vessels out of our space, period, and allow none to enter. Ships in our space stay in our space. Ships in territory outside ours stay outside.
If you seized that ship, it was:
a) not ours, seeing as we equip our stations with thrusters to enable them to move outside our space and establish embassies,
b) ours, but captured in OUR space, or
c) a fictional ship created to provoke us.
I believe it is most likely c), because none of our ships are labeled "Q Imperium". Our government consists of two parts: the Greater Olympian Dominion, and the Q Imperium, unified under the id banner. If that ship was truly ours, it would have been under idFleet markings, not Q Imperium colors.
Furthermore, we don't have probe vessels. Observation vessels are not probe vessels, and we haven't sent any observation vessels your way, simply because, until recently your faction was not significant.
Warden Q
Q Cubed posted 04-21-99 06:31 PM ET
Also: I ask you to send me the identities of those crew that you captured, in order to run them through my Citizens' Database to learn whether they are my citizens or not.
JT 3 posted 04-21-99 06:32 PM ET
Q is right. I have known him for a while, and he stays in his territory.
JT 3 posted 04-21-99 06:33 PM ET
Although, if the ship was damaged, it could have been drifting in space and have drifted out of his territory.
President Korian posted 04-22-99 07:22 AM ET
Q, I reject your offer. Please remember that you have another choice besides evacating. Although you may beleive your forcs are invincible, if it comes to war, we will win. There are 4 days until war. I would like to thank those factions which are supporting me in this conflict.
President Korian of the Federated States of Democracy
President Korian posted 04-22-99 07:29 AM ET
The Upper and Lower Houses have recently passed a bill which would give us enough energy credits to refit all our ships with Disruptor Cannons. This would, in effect, make Electrophoton Batteries obsolete.
President Korian of the Federated States of Democracy
AoYoS posted 04-22-99 08:29 AM ET
After careful interrogation, the officers of the captured ship admitted that they were renegades trying to escape and enter our space.
I will be glad to return them to you, Warden, so you can do what you like with them.
Centrimate AoYoS
JT 3 posted 04-22-99 11:30 AM ET
OOC
I thought Disruptor Cannons wre a cannon weapon(the large weapon on the front of the ship. You can only have one of these per ship)
President Korian posted 04-22-99 02:54 PM ET
*OOC* Well, JT, you're wrong.
JT 3 posted 04-22-99 04:53 PM ET
OOC
Obviously.
IC
I am also proposing a bill that will reoutfit all ships. Battlecruisers and above will have the Star Destroyer(cannon weapon) added to them, and all ships will be reoutfitted with Particle Accelerators, Anti-Matter Particle Beams, and Disruptor Cannons. It has passed through the Senate and is now being voted on in the High Council.
AoYoS posted 04-22-99 05:57 PM ET
The same bill is being proposed in my Parliament as well.
Centrimate AoYoS
President Korian posted 04-23-99 07:28 AM ET
There are 3 days left until war, Warden. Also, we have recently voted to make the Governor's Council a part of the national Parliament.
President Korian of the Federated States of Democracy
Q Cubed posted 04-24-99 12:43 AM ET
AoYoS:
Keep them. If they wish to leave our nation, they did not have to flee in that manner; I cannot understand their motives. We have no desire for them.
Send me the identities, however.
------
Korian:
Other options? It seems as if you are not offering me any options except the following: �Retreat and Back Down
�War
I am not a hawk, desperately seeking a war to boost my nation's egotistical pride.
You, however, seem so focused on having everything your way, even at the cost of trying to attack a nation that has never taken agressive action, nor has tried to provoke anything.
Furthermore, we of G.O.D. know our ships are not invincible. Only a fool would think that. Only a fool, however, will believe that they would win a war quickly, especially if both nations are prepared and if both nations are squabbling over one small area no loarger than .125 square kilometers.
Very well, since you seem intent on kicking us out, and we have no support, we shall withdraw.
We are withdrawing our offer of an embassy. Your nation will no longer be recognized as a government in our datalinks, nor will we have any direct contact with you. You nation, in essence, is dead to us.
As for withdrawal terms: Do Not Pursue us. We do not require any "escorts", and if you do choose to "escort" our ships, I will not let them leave your space in one piece. It will be you who will cause that atrocity, my 'friend'.
Do not presume to attack us either. We will not enter your space; JT is correct on that. We stay in our own space. However, if you do choose to attack us, know that we will use everything, any and all means, to secure what is ours. That includes everything, up to using such devices like the Mnetrionic Cascade, or biogenic weaponry. We seek peace and isolation.
I only hope that these ideals to not clash with the other nations. As for you, Korian, I do not care; your opinion of our nation matters no longer. You are not a brother nation outside of the treaties we share.
This conversation cannot serve any useful purpose any longer.
Goodbye.
President Korian posted 04-24-99 08:34 AM ET
No, Warden, there is another option. I beleive I said at an earlier time that you could let us refit your station with sensors that would only monitor outward. Then, we would have to monitor the station to make sure that you do not redirect the sensors. However, if you want to leave that is fine. I will also repeat that if you want an embassy, it should be on Mars, not Luna.
Chancellor AoYoS posted 04-24-99 11:18 AM ET
Korian, I wish to rent a portion of land on Luna, if there is any room too, to construct a sensor array, that points OUTWARD, to detect any surprise attacks by the Acheans passing through your space cloaked. We are willing to pay you 200,000 Energy credits per galactic month.
President Korian posted 04-24-99 01:15 PM ET
Your application has been rejected, Chancellor. We can monitor out own space.
Chancellor AoYoS posted 04-24-99 01:26 PM ET
Fine. We will simply move a probe station near your border. Not in your border around your border. Its range would be equal of the one I was applying to put on Luna. Also when Venus is terraformed I will set up a post there. Guess if you choose to lose 200,000 energy credits a month its your won perrogative.
Chancellor AoYoS of the Herclux Combine
President Korian posted 04-24-99 04:15 PM ET
That is fine, but if one quark of your probe extends into out border we will not hesitate to fire upon it. Also, our borders are closed to all AoP member except Galen and Eccles. We will not hesitate to fire upon any intruding ship.
Chancellor AoYoS posted 04-24-99 05:02 PM ET
All AoP space is closed to all but AoP members. If I need to get through your space I will request it and let you escort them the quickest way to it's destination.
JT 3 posted 04-24-99 06:23 PM ET
Chancellor, when was AoP space closed to all but AoP members? I allow Korian and Collins to pass through once their ships have been scanned.
Chancellor AoYoS posted 04-24-99 07:11 PM ET
JT 3, I misposted that. It should have been all Combine space not AoP space. forgive my mistake.
JT 3 posted 04-24-99 07:28 PM ET
Sure thing.
