Oh, and by the way, I meant how he would run them. They are the basic idea, but there are different ways of running them. Like, if we did some communism thing, where the worker and the employer get the same amount of pay, Eccles wouldn't just say: Okay, we have this economic structure: The worker and employer get the same amount of pay. It would have to be a little more defined. |

The Combine wishes to announce the end of hositilities with the Shadows. We are withdrawing all ships to AoP worlds. We encourage others to do the same. I will relenquish command of the AoP military in this matter as I could not honorable attack the Shadows as the combined Commander. We will also take a more active role in the Protectorate, combining Combine economy and production with the Confederacy's military. We may also in the future, pull out of the AoP to help unfoster the rivalries between the AoP and UA. This way you can help one another to foster peace and tranquility. Chancellor AoYoS |

Chancellor, do not pull out of the AOP. It will not solve any hostilities, and perhaps make them grow, as they see we are weaker. Also, I will change your position with Galen's, if that is acceptable, seeing as he got the second most votes for Military(I think, I am checking now). |

The Shadows would not have peace talks with me. They only responded, "You have used too many atrocities against us. The Flavored Tachyons were the last straw. We must obliterate you." Now, I did not use Flavored Tachyons. Eccles, if you did, stop using them now. I am trying to convince the Shadows I did not use the Tachyons, but they are a very stubborn race. |

[Decree from the Parliament of Herclux]
"As I said this is temporary measure, because since we signed a peace treaty with the Shadows we could not honorably attack them. We will support the AoP in all matters, and keep sending military aid, in the essence of loans and supplies." [Chancellor speaking directly to the AoP leaders] I was outvoted on the matter. I pressed the support hard though. I felt obligation to help our friends. The Combine Parliament feels that we are better to pursue a full alliance with the Confederacy, so we can begin to pursue other matters than military and get back on track with our peaceful statutes that were created for the Combine. As the Decree said we continue to send all supplies to you and loans. I wish the circumstances were different but this is the weakness of democracy I guess. Chancellor AoYoS |

I forgot to mention this aspect of our resignation. My people are weary of war. If we kept fighting this expensive war, I would be facing riots and revolutions all over the Combine. This would destroy our newly created government, and the more conservative leaders would come into power, thus ending our liberal stature on matters. Chancellor AoYoS |

Three words: Veto The first stands for what you could have done. The other two are what the AOP is also. This is not just a military alliance. The economy is a great thing, as you get much trade from all the alliances, and the leaders will almost always stand up for you. Also, you have just given up your rights to the AOP planets and fleets. I suggest you try to reenter. |
| JT 3 |
posted 05-03-99 08:10 PM ET
Oh, yes, also, you do not have to enter an AOP war. You have the option of not joining, although that means all fleets will withdraw from your territory to protect the other AOP members who are in the war. |

It looks like we will have to have a new military leader. If one of the leaders from right now wants to take that spot, feel free to do so. But then their previous spot will have to be filled. I nominate Michael to fill that spot. |

As I said JT 3, I was outvoted by the Parliament. I will open a channel between you and them if you wish to discuss the matter.

All Combine ships are departing for Combine space. All Combine citizens that were on AoP worlds have been given the choice of staying or leaving. Over 3/4's of them are departing for our worlds. They fear destruction by the Shadows if they remain. Also JT 3, the veto you brought up was not possible. Over 3/4's of the Parliament voted to withdraw and if they 3/4's majority I can't veto.

Okay, here is what I am saying: 1.You want to drop out because you want to stop fighting. Fine. But you can stop fighting and still stay in the AOP. 2.This is also an economic and political alliance. If you want to build up, trade with 5 other Factions will help immensly. 3.Also, you will have more peace if you stay. If you leave, you will have a treaty with all the members. If you stay, you will have a Pact. If they have another reason for leaving, tell me, I will probably find a solution. |

[Secret Comminque] The Psi Corps are in the process of reneuralizing the conservatives that are the Parliament. They are going without agression and the process is going quite well. We are still pursuing the alliance with the Protectorate, we wish to reenter the AoP quietly. I wish to retain my position after all of the conservatives are reneuralized. We are sorry for all of the confusion but we are still not at war with the Shadows either. Chancellor AoYoS (OOC: Probably by tommorow the reneuralization will be complete all of tonite and early tommorow afternoon, I will use the [Secret Transmission or Secret Communique to contact you.

Hmmmm..... let's see here...... now what did I say before about this?..... Oh, yes..... You do not have to join in a war someone else in the alliance is fighting. You do not have to conduct commerce with another Faction in the alliance. The AOP merely gives you the oppurtunity to do so. I would also like to remind you of peace treaties. They mean you are no longer at war. I will use an example from old Earth. The NATO alliance that was formed in the 20th century is perfect. Germany, the "bad guy" in WWII, joined into the alliance with the US, France, and the UK, all countries who had despised Germany a few years ago. Now, they were allies. They worked together in war and economics. It can be the same here. The US, which warred with the UK and gained its independance, was allied with them later. I am basicly saying that you should not continue to hold this grudge. Times change. People change. Countries change. Races change. Try to get along. You never know what great things could happen. |

[Emergency Communication from the Captiol of the Combine] "The Chancellor has suffered a stroke (in human terms) and has passed on from this world as of an hour ago. We will begin searching for a replacement for his soul asap. We are considering putting him in the frame of a Confederate, since they are physically stronger." This just means that our race will begin evolving agian. (OOC: best description is that we are like the Zerg in starcraft.) The Confederacy has given us a body of a Confederate soldier and we are in the process of moving the soul in it.

Chancellor! We are surprised! You are trying to become a Shadow? I wouldn't advise it, though... It is very dangerous. Also, you may become a threat for the whole system. To explain, I'll give you some background information on the Shadows. In basic, there are three sorts of Shadows: the ones you are fighting, the ones who signed a treaty with JT3, and us. Shadows are teleptats. They can hear what another Shadow thinks, and they can project there own thoughts in them. Fortunatly, this only works with Shadows of their own group. So your enemys cannot read my thoughts, but if you take over one of their bodies, they will be able to read yours! Same goes, if you had captured one of my people, I would be able to know everything you are planning. So if you continue this, you will become a big leak in the defenses of this system! Believe me, we are not lying! High Commander Ronin |

Our evolution stands. I have heeded the warnings of both races and as you already know JT 3, my race holds a telepathic connection. (ie, the Psi Corps) All Herclux are in a state of Chrysalis. We will not bow to the will of any other Shadow and we will remain independent from them. Our bodies are morphing not our minds. Chancellor AoYoS |
| Chancellor AoYoS |
posted 05-09-99 10:23 AM ET
One other tidbit of information. Before we evolved into the Herclux, we learned how to severe our psycic link with the Truxians. We will learn how to severe our contact with the other Shadows. We will not be intimidated by their hollow threats. If it comes to the point where we start thinking like them and ally ourselves with them we will begin looking for a new host of creatures to evolve into. Also, the evolution is combined. As I said before, we are volving into Confederates AND Shadows so we will have the benefits of both races. The Confederates have a high resistancy to mind control and other forms of telekenesis.
