Chapter 5.3
Mercenary

quote: Here is something to think about If at first you don't succeed, get help.

Following his defeat at Helios Light, General Ordin had been unusally cautious. However, the general was simply not the type to be confined to the armchair, and now he had finally rallied his troops for war.

By now, his fleet was larger, and more importantly, he did not fight alone. With him was Zol Ventis, making his first offensive action.

Chapter 5.4
Odd Couple

quote: Here is something to think about All's fair in love and war.

Following the shield encounter over Shooting Star, it was believed that von Kristof's fleet had gone into hiding deep in uncharted space.

News from the Stardust communes suggests something startling different.

The von Kristof fleet is indeed there again, the shields are down this time, but there's no conflict at this occasion. Instead, it appears that the two leaders are preparing for an allied attack.

Perhaps this is not so surprising given the personalities of the opportunistic von Kristof and the welcoming Stardust. Nontheless, this is a remarkably quick change of attitude especially at a time with no clear dominating power to rally against. Or is it?

-----------------------------------

It's getting late here and if I process now I'm probably going to screw something up. The targets and results of the two allied attacks will be revealed tomorrow morning.

The next few turns should be more interesting as the game finally reaches the point that futher base building is uneconomical even with shields floating around.

The so called and yet not existing triple alliance is made of peaceloving people who are ready to sacrifice themselves for the greater good of the others.

The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few, or the one.

Those willing to sacrifice themselve should understand the rightousness of giving themselves up and ending unnecessary bloodshed.

The many demands a collective surrender of all bases belonging to the alliance as well as complete demilitarization fo the peace of all man, machine and alien-kind.

MORON, i suggest dismantling your ships based on your recommendations. Clearly it is in the best interests of the people to demilitarize, and the only way is for you to set an example for the rest of us.

Yup, GeoModder and I did not have that opportunity - the OTF stopped counting for post count a few months before I registered.

How about just posting on relevant topics regularly? I have about 12 posts/day, which is not very many really - just 12 posts every single day. Hit emperor in less than a year that way ...

For all that it matters, anywho. Emperor, Warlord, it's all in how well you *play*.

Oh, and don't do things that get you a PCR ... That really hurts it.
