Guardian, so Iīm not playing according to the rules, huh ? whatever you wanīt to think, this argument is getting way off the line...
Iīd like to move whats left of my cultist troops to the north.Then they wonīt bother the PKīs ever again!( or atleast for a long time )
Okay, maybe I went a little too overboard with that "This will prove, once and for all..." statement, but as you said, it will raise questions and hopefully make some argument between alliance members.
Imagine the NATO troops in Kosovo suddenly attacking a Serb army base, slaughtering everybody there, shoving the bodies into a truck, writing with blood some gruesome things on the truck walls and sending that truck to the nearest serb town. The serbs there videotape it and send the tape to every major news office.
After that, the media is going personally to make NATOīs situation a living hell...
Anyway, if you do make a proper public investigation and a court martial, Iīll be satisfied .

Cyber, communications/internet like network/etc is not well established between the factions as it is on Earth, here, at the moment. Neither is world wide media coverage. Hey, many things within Sparta, Hive, Believers, CoP and so on is not well known yet. Even the Pirates and Gaians can be bit of a mystery. In the Central Continent, it is bit more develop between the Data Angels, Morganites, University and Cyborgs. but the limits arise still out of the continent. When factions start sending satellites up which would improve communications, datalinks/internet, etc... and when air travel becomes more common and develop.
It is because of these current limitations which makes it hard to completly prove things, like past atrocities. With that probe team done at Janissary Rock was the first real inside view within a Spartan Base... which the PKs took advantage of this footage and shown it on their NEws Network.
Also, want to clarify the long-range communications and short-range communications. Short range, like hand radios, inter-unit/base comm, and so on, like within a square and adjacent squares. Long range is like sending a message to from point to the other in distant....where anyone in between with their comm can easily intercept. Blast Rifle Crag for example temporally lost their Long Range Comm capability, but they still have their short-range. So a Blockade Guardian unit just needs to get close to the base to establish proper, more private. communications :P

Guardian, the two kingdom story by braddock....got it from Babylon 5 or something? 
Yes, peace should be settled, and the DMZ thing, and the Interfactional PKing Force and so on. :P
-Just have a simple vote about the IPF, yes or no
-vote about requiring to establish an unarmed embassies in each others capitals.
in the meantime, the inner turmoil problems within Sparta seem to be quiet :P

That was a good one, Spray ...
Anyway, the CoWīs are only Elite with 25% attack, like with the believers. However, they are a tough piece of sh*t to stomp on in battle 
Maybe the anonymous persons inside Sparta Command are just testing and seeing what will Kessel do with the tape.
LordLMP, i know there isnīt a "CNN" on Chiron yet, but it would be probably quite a scoop if the tape was to be shown on Spartan, Hive and University channels (maybe even too big in the case of Spartans, might result in the braking of the cease-fire... who knows)
Spray... me, Santiago and the Junta (except Kessel, who was punished to sit in the corner because he did not want to kill PKs ) enjoyed every moment of the... letīs see( looks at a long list)... gassing, torturing, mass murdering, xenocide, slave taking, nerve stapling, nuking bases, attempt to nuke the polar cap, native ecological destruction etc...
BUAHAHAA ......

Oh, and Spray, I planned the Cult to build atleast two more bases on the northern Island, meaning there should some investments, like Colony pods, from the Spartan Federation. Whats your opinion?
Anyways, what should we do with Commander "Cyborg" Clayson? I can imagine Lal and lot of other PKs having a heart attack when seeing him alive and well, and pointing a gun at them... but of course his primary mission is to assasinate Braddock and heīll have to get near him, so he wonīt blow up his "cover" so easily.
About making Sparta a stronger military power. Yes, youīre right we canīt beat them on land, but not on sea also because of the pirates and their outrageous amount of ships and modern technology. So that leaves us air, and eventually... space. The problem is, there is noone to fight, because itīll be either a faction in the Chiron alliance or a neutral faction thatīll be eventually militarily backed up by the Chiron alliance. So, as long as the Alliance is in the picture, its pointless to be a Spartan ... but hey, times change and relations change... hopefully.

Spartans suppose to be honorable, not evil monsters. The point i was trying to make with santiego is she is not evil, just got stuck and sort of forced to allow these atrocities to be committed. But quietly, she was fighting it. Three bases on the northern continent? will take awhile before you get that. but the mass atrocities was overboard thought, especially nukes! after that thing with SeaQuest, the factions will become more serious towards nuclear threat, which was to avoid and not end up like earth! Anyway, not going to allow anymore expansion on that beyond one base until the alien story goes through. As for the AIr power bit, Free Drones is already moving to become an Air Power, quietly.
Stop thinking that the Chiron Alliance will simply fall apart, but they will have their political problems. Especially concerning the Pirates and policies on various things.

Spray, you can mention Kane and so on in Kessel's flashbacks, but i'm not into doing flashbacks for Kane thought. Kane's Hive Units is a sub-group/sub-faction of the Hive, currently in Peacekeeper territory and part of the large force surrounding Data Acquisition.

Sprayber, in my opinion, the Cult is still operating as a "police force" around Sparta Command as the deal between Sparta and CoW dictates, but comes only into the public eye when thereīs really trouble, like the riots in J-Rock.Right now, no outsider has heard much about them.
Cult members are basicly in every Spartan base, so theyīre also in Blast Rifle Crag and might not like the situation there. Might even do something about it.
Anyway, about the investments in form of Colony pods etc., I know its going to take time and have nothing against waiting, as the Spartan economy and industry isnīt in the best shape. But Iīm still planning to start soon moving more cultists into Temple of War. There is a problem, however, and its transportation. The Spartan fleet is stuck and the two trasport jets are too far.
Also, theres no guarantee Kessel is actually going to give any help, but that means they CoWs must stay in Sparta, and potentially cause a lot of troubles to him.
BTW, thereīs no permanent and good connection between Sparta and the Hive, as the Free Drones are blocking the only way through land. I suggest that we should establish a good connection, either by somehow acquiring the small piece of droneland, or making a solid and well protected "water highway" through planetneck.

The Spartans may of helped acquired Peace Treaty with the Hive, but its the hive who declared a cease-fire in the first place. If natan hasn't taken control of the Hive, the Blockade Guardians would have fun fighting the Hive Northern Army Second Stage: load as many hive units in the 3-4 transport foils and land them in Spartan Territory north of Fort Legion. Of course, Yang cancelled that plan and I'm sure there is a reason why Yang didn't brought it as an option to send the Spartans Hive reinforcements Anyway, with internal problems in Sparta, Hive cannot have a full relationship with them until the Spartans Smarts up...hey, the Spartans may acquire entire new government which could be anti-Hive. So Hive should be careful.
As for the Free Drone, since the cease-fire with the Hive and during the war...they have started fortifying their border with the Spartans, especially the small piece of land with the Spartans wanted to "buy". They have increase the size of their military and upgraded the majority of their units by now...and since they acquired Doctrine: Air and after the prototypes...they are building their air force like crazy They can't rival the SPartans ground unit wise...well, in numbers they superior, but Hive military is in numbers aswell. The Svensgaard knows of the threat which the Hive and Spartans pose to the Free Drones...so he gave them Doctrine Air power...which seriously would help them. with their industrial capacity, they will for sure dominate the skies in their area 
Cyber, CoWs may create some trouble at Blast Rifle Crag, but doesn't mean you can wipe entire unit(s) thought! there is a total of 16 rover units at Blast Rifle Crag. is the CoWs seriously stupid enough to pull something? Also, i'm sure the survivors of the Spartan Garrison would know who the CoW people are there :P

Actually Sparta might already have a anti-Hive one-man government. Depends on Kessel, and how well he honors his wifes memory.
LordLMP, I donīt think Kessel(Spray) will attack the Free Drones. Neither would have I, when I was in control, though there were many good chances 
My original plan was to make the Free drones as a buffer zone, between the Hive and Sparta by making them neutral and keeping them completely out of war. The alliance with the Hive was a sudden and unexpected move, so now a good road to Hive is needed.
The cease-fire would have only been a pause if the Spartans handnīt practicly bought the peace treaty for the Free Drones and the Blockade guardians would have been eventually probably forced to retreat. That would have probably meant a disaster or even, the end to the revolutionary Drones.
LMP, donīt assumme Yang would have been so careless as to send 3-4 transports full of units into a suicide mission. Why do you think the western army was stationed originally in that area? And the southern and main armies would have probably arrived quickly after.
About the CoWīs. Donīt worry, they definately donīt have enough power to do any serious damage in BRC. But they are capable of making sabotage and other kind of terrorism. Actually I havenīt even dicided if iīm going to use them at all Iīm not sure if the garrison troops know them so well, maybe some...

Cyber, i would of pulled off that plan, especially when you moved the Western Army to the Pk front! and wouldn't be an mass suicide mission, as the majority of the spartan forces would be busy dealing with the PKs. then, the Pirate's "unknown" units would of attacked Janissary Rock after the the probe team started the rebellion and sabotage the Perimeter Defence. Of course, the Hive stage 2 never happened, so the Blockade Guardians who retreated to the Free Drone/Spartan border wouldn't of been occupied. So you moved them to stop the rebellion and to counter the unknown forces in the waste. The Spartans could of been stuck in a three front war, where they don't have the numbers to concentrate on all three at the same time. Of course, nothing in Chiron Chronicles goes Completly according to plan

Okay, the exchange project i good, but Sparta will need some healthy and steady trade. The last trade partner Spartans had were the Free Drones, and that relation ended because of the spy-scandal between the two factions. Now, the closest to a trade partner we have right now is the Hive, so we should establish a large, firm and well protected trade routes, probably a marine-based routes through the planetneck. The trade could do wonders to Spartan economy and even industry.
This is a summary of the amount of Spartan forces right now, as I remember it:
Combined army: 6 rover units ( Elite)
Main army: 9 rover units (Elite)
Western army: 5 rover units (Elite)
Blockade Guardians: 8 rover units (Elite)
Spartan fleet: 12 ships( One elite, the rest are veterans)
Spartan airforces:7 air units( Elite)
CoW: 1.5 infantry units ( Elite, + 25% attack)
Too lazy to put the designs They can be seen from Admin 2.All ground and air units, except BGs, have nerve gas.
Correct me, if Iīm wrong...

The Blockade Guardians lost two msl rover units, so they have 6 rover units left.
Combine army lost half its or 2/3 of their units after punching through the defence line, blasting through the hive units, take over data acquisition, lost a unit at the bunker they captured and the artillery further north, and then internal problems.
Main army lost 4 units...2 at defence line and 2 from the mass pk air strike.
As for the Fleet...12? wasn't it 8 before?
