Alright, draft letter to send to GCA on the turn we declare war. Heavily based on what Togas wrote earlier in this thread. Comments please?
quote:
To Lucky and the people of the Gamecatcher Alliance,
The people of Apolyton, lead by our esteemed Consuls, have made a momentous decision in the history of our civilization. As of this turn, we at Apolyton have moved military units onto your side of our border. By definition, this is considered a formal declaration of war, rendering all treaties between us void.
We fully recognize the ruthless efficiency with which GCA is able to carry out war on its enemies. This is a great turning point in the history of our continent and we are excited at the challenge you will present on the battlefield.
We are not interested in negotiations or debates about the war at this time. We may consider a peaceful resolution to this conflict at a later date.
Regards,
WhiteBandit
Apolyton Foreign Affairs Ministry

If we can get them to accept peace, even if only for a few turns, then I think we should do it to squash war weariness.
So rather than call them on sending us the offer first, I think we should just make them the formal offer they seem to want. They'll probally just laugh in our face and turn it down, but its worth a try.
Btw what are the formal rules on WW in Multi-player. In particular:
1) How many full turns of peace do we need to reduce it to 0? Is 1 enough?
2) If they/us re-declare war, we start over from 0 WW correct?
3) If they re-declare war and no fighting occurs, does WW increase? Is it based on who declares war? Who attacks first? Whose territory the combats occur in?
[edit/ps]
I personally think GCA is just jerking us around with the offered peace then weird/stupid letter accusing us of doing it, and that they fully intend to stay at perpetual war with us to harm our chances of winning. The quickest way to find out their long term intentions though is to try to negotiate peace.

Posted a chat with Mongoose about GCA in teh correspondences thread (Talk with Mongoose about GCA peace and with GBM of CFC about treaty ). He talked to Lucky about the War Weariness situation. Here is the pertenent part:
quote:
[20:38] mongoose201> Lucky says:
[20:38] mongoose201> as of now, we will NOT accept a peace treaty from apolyton unless they negotiate with us (which in effect requires certain reparations)
[20:38] mongoose201> Lucky says:
[20:38] mongoose201> furthermore
[20:38] mongoose201> Lucky says:
[20:39] mongoose201> unless a full team vote officially declares upkeeping WW illegal, and that for all times in this game, we will not accept the ruling
[20:39] mongoose201> Lucky says:
[20:39] mongoose201> you are the game admin, but sorry, you are not the game
[20:39] mongoose201> Lucky says:
[20:39] mongoose201> the teams are the game
[20:39] mongoose201> Lucky says:
[20:39] mongoose201> and hence, the teams ultimately decide about the game as well
[20:39] mongoose201> Lucky says:
[20:39] mongoose201> this is nothing personal, but if you once again refer to the other ISDG in spe, youŽll see that the positions and abilities a game admin should have are under intense discussion there as well
[20:39] mongoose201> Lucky says:
[20:39] mongoose201> newfound exploits, bugs, illegal moves from a team and following punishment, yes that should be for the admin to decide
[20:39] mongoose201> mongoose says:
[20:39] mongoose201> I understand your position, and I would feel the same way in your case. I understand that I am not the game.... I have tried to stay as far out of the way as I could possibly do, as a matter of fact. And I am aware that these things are being discussed in greater detail in the other ISDG's...but, while you are referring me to the other ISDGs
[20:39] mongoose201> mongoose says:
[20:39] mongoose201> oops
[20:39] mongoose201> mongoose says:
[20:39] mongoose201> the other ISDG's (correctly), I will refer you to the Pledge at the beginning of this game...that's what we have..I wish we had done more
[20:40] mongoose201> I don't know why he is asking for a team vote.. they would lose 3 to 2
[20:41] Trip> you could always tell him that
[20:41] E_T> stalling for time, maybe
[20:42] E_T> one more turn of WW
|
It would seem that GCA doesn;t want any peace with us at all. and it will come down to a vote at 1BC that they won't win.
This game might fall apart soon....
