If I go I'll simply tell him what he can do with himself. I suggest someone else deal with any vassalization negotiations.

Krill was in Chat, but I was at work. He sent me an PM, I replyed that we'll try to catch up with them tomorrow.

I might play our turn before then, I really don't know. But if I do, I'll send all of our cash to LB. Maybe we can keep bouncing it back and forth between us and AM won't know how much we have.

Talked to Krill, in chat Support Apolyton, buy Galactic Civilizations: Deluxe Edition

It was very late, when I had talked to Krill, here is the Chatlog

quote:

[03:09] [Krill> ET, are you still awake?
[03:10] [E_T> I was just about to go to bed, but I'm still here
[03:10] * E_T sets mode: +o Krill
[03:18] [Krill> Well, I have not discussed anyhting with Ormuzd
[03:18] [Krill> but I can give you a vague outline of what we would require from a peace trety
[03:19] [E_T> I've been relaxing after a long day at work, so I didn't get around to playing the save
[03:19] [Krill> that is for the best
[03:19] [Krill> to be honest with you
[03:20] [Krill> Well, this is what we would need: Kyrra (your horse city)
[03:20] [Krill> Kurra
[03:20] [Krill> Hooka
[03:20] [Krill> Inannas' Throne
[03:20] [E_T> why?
[03:20] [Krill> and Babyln.
[03:20] [Krill> Because we came for the land
[03:20] [Krill> That is the reason for the attack
[03:20] [Krill> we just need the land to carry on expansion
[03:21] [E_T> that really doesn't leave us with that much, if we are to be vassels
[03:22] [Krill> we would leave you with the coastal cities to the south, and we would cede to you the two city sites to the south of Helio and TMR
[03:22] [Krill> You would also keep Potamia
[03:22] [Krill> and Tamuz
[03:23] [Krill> We would not ask you to field anything more than a defensive army, just to block the coast from naval landings
[03:23] [E_T> with corruption effects, they really won't be much use to you
[03:24] [Krill> I probably should not say this, but we would have them all working perfectly by the end of our GA
[03:24] [Krill> and you can probably guess how we are going to do it
[03:25] [E_T> FP, I imagine
[03:25] [E_T> but the FP, in C3C does NOT give you a second core, like in PTW
[03:25] [Krill> try again.
[03:26] [Krill> Palace jump
[03:26] [Krill> after building FP in old core. If you don't jump to far, and keep the rank corruption down, you get one large core.
[03:26] [E_T> so your building an FP somewhere else?
[03:26] [Krill> yup.
[03:27] [E_T> where , if I might ask?
[03:29] [Krill> We have a couple of prebuilds going at the moment. Depending on what happens with the tech race, the FP can go into any of them. As to where they are, Helio is my preference, but TMR and Unseen Uiversity are also building large improvements atm, and so we don't have to make our minds up just yet.
[03:30] [E_T> how are you plannning to move Palace, GL?
[03:31] [Krill> Normal jump
[03:31] [Krill> It is easy enough
[03:31] [Krill> I just did one n the PTWDG2
[03:32] [Krill> disband the capital
[03:32] [E_T> you have to make sure that it doesn't go to the wrong city, have enough pop in it for one thing
[03:33] [E_T> IIRC, the Palace jump, in the PTWISDG, we had to have 8 in the jump city and 5 or less in all others
[03:34] [Krill> If you check the thread, the amount of military units in the cities also affects which city the palace goes to.
[03:34] [E_T> but it was a long jump
[03:34] [Krill> that makes it incredably easy to exploit.
[03:34] [E_T> and I don'tknow how map size effects that, either
[03:34] [Krill> It does not
[03:34] [E_T> have you simmed it out?
[03:35] [Krill> http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=47304
[03:36] [Krill> just use the military units for the most part
[03:36] [E_T> I've read that thread, long time ago
[03:37] [Krill> well, I have not simmed it out just yet, but I can not see needing more than 20 military units to get the palace to jump to the corect city
[03:39] * E_T is fading fast and needs to get up in 5 hours for work
[03:40] [Krill> well, none of this is definate
[03:40] [Krill> but those are the cities we would require.
[03:40] [Krill> any spare resources we have we would send to you
[03:40] [Krill> and vice versa
[03:40] [E_T> Well, I'll post about it, but you said you still need to talk to Ormuzd first, so send me and shogun an e-mail
[03:40] [Krill> OK
[03:41] [Krill> Oh, I'll just go and edit the GS-RP treaty...
[03:42] [E_T> aand I likely won't be posting until tomorrow, hopefully before work, but if not, it won't be until 10 to 11 PM EDT before I do
[03:44] [Krill> Well, OK
[03:44] [Krill> I will be going on holiday on friday mporning
[03:44] [Krill> thursday evening your time though
[03:44] [Krill> so if we can get as much done as possible before then


Krill sent something else, via PM about the cities, then he chated breifly today

quote:

[Krill> ET, just wondering but did you recieve the PM I sent?

[E_T> and tired
[E_T> [weak/wain smiley]
[E_T> I just wish that everyone hadn't all gone away on holiday, at once....
[E_T> Krill, you meantioned Babylon (the city) last night, but thetreaty yousent mentions Hookah, but not Babylon
[E_T> Please PM that stuff to Shogun, too
[Krill> It is all sent to SG
[Krill> er, I'm stupid.
[Krill> oh wait.
[Krill> you can not gift Babylon to us.
[Krill> game mechanics don't allow that to happen
[Krill> so it has to empty so we can capture it.
[E_T> So, what is it, I'm posting this now and want to add this to it and I still have to get ready for work, so hurry up
[Krill> OK, you gift the three cities I mentionned in the treaty,
[Krill> Hooka, Kurra and IT
[Krill> Make sure that there are no units in Babylon the city
[Krill> sell everything that produces culture
[Krill> so sell all temps and libs in Babylon, Kurra, Hooka and It

My god, I mean my Inanna!

That was exactly what I was thinking. If we simply complied, we just are a shield on their eastern flank. No chance to win, just a boring border guard without the possibility of career advancement.

E_T do you have an idea how to double cross them yet? I'm all for that idea. Clearly they are too greedy and have asked for too much. A more modest request might have won our approval, but this sh!t, no f'in way.

Well, it would possibly require knowing more about their Palace Move plans. But we have the general gist of it.

They are planning to have a LOT of their Military new Capitol site. That's quite a distance from BoH. Also, they are doing several prebuilds, right now, so they aren't using it for war production.

If BoH hits them at the right time.....

Hmm, BOH or AM. Tough choice.

Ultimately, I think calling on BOH and expecting them to take it all is a little risky. I think AM struck now for a reason: BOH is off distracted by Euphorica.

Of course, Krill did say they plan to do the jump using military units rather than pop. We may be able to get BOH to invade at a later date if we can confirm that AM's units are tied up.

Sent to ormuzd and Krill in reply.

quote:
I'm sorry to hear that.

Unfortunately, I didn't get to the save in nearly the time I thought I would and E_T played thinking the cease fire would go in to effect. As such, we made no offensive moves even though we could have taken at least a horse of yours, if not more.

Vassalization is a major decision and not one we want to take lightly without full discussion by our team. While we may not have more turnplayers than your team, we do have a fair number of active members who want a voice in this, and some (like Beta) are away or simply very busy at the moment.

I hope you will agree to give us a little more time, hold off on further offense for the turn being as we have. I don't know if you realize you essentially have us by the throat, but you do. A turn or two is not going to change that, and should be what we need to finalize this decision, which currently looks like it will be vassalization.

I think I can promise I'll not continue our aggression towards you at least for the next turn. All we have done so far was surprise attack. Any delay may give the precious time you need and this is the reason we don't want to stop.

Can you guarantee you will not build military units in those two turns? Or if you do, not use them (in case you deny our proposal)?

(I have no idea what did Krill answer to you)


So, we have our cease fire for a turn, I hope.

As for the guarantee... what do you guys think?

Personally, I'm thinking no way in heck will we follow through on something like that whether or not we say it. Either we take the vassalization deal and it's a moot point, or we try to stand our ground and fight AM tooth and nail.

I agree with conmcb25. If we fight back, making it non-moot, I don't really care if we lie to AM.

But do the rest of you? Should we hold off till we decide on vassalization?

And what do you guys think? Should we take the vassalization deal or not? My main concern is which gives us better shots at revenge, I need to mull that over...
