Okay,

tempers flared... some things were said in haste... there were some unfortunate actions... but we all realize that for us to make it on this planet, we all have to pitch in and pull together.

Charman K., I'm sure we can make peace work if we try. Are you willing to try with me?

*F*

Govenor Flomper, I shall refer you to our latest transmission for our reply.

If the Pirates are indeed sincere in their 'offering' of peace then they must remove their gunships from our shores immediately.

Chairman out.

Governor Flomper has yet to reply to any of our transmissions requesting a truce. His 'Pirates' continue to lurk off of our shores, while the good Governor pays lip service to peace.

Once again, the Hive calls for the removal of Governor Flomper for office. There are now, it appears, three other likely candidates for the position (and no the Hive is not one of them).

Governor Flomper, these hostilities must cease, and the right to expansion be allowed to continue.

Qualicide: lol...I was in a hurry, and this bloody apple non-extended keyboard sucks. If I'd only waited two more months to buy my G4 I could have got the new extended keyboard. C'est la vie!

[Flomper]

KillJoy, I don't respond well to threats. Let me remind you that the cause of the breakdown in our diplomatic status was YOUR invasion of an allied faction's city. In the face of such hostility, troop movements were certainly warranted.

You mentioned before that there were two gunships off your coast, now you insist that the one remaining ship be removed. Anyone reading between the lines of your missive would come to the conclusion that I have already begun the removal of troops, and was merely doing so in measured steps.

You have shown yourself to be untrustworthy in upholding a truce when there are no opposing troops to enforce it. In light of this I would be very foolish to trust you to act responsibly when unobserved. Especially in light of the remarks about me that you have made in this forum.

What is it that you are planning to do that you cannot allow the world at large to see, Chairman?

Master of the Wave.

[Killjoy]

Governor Flomper your point is well taken.

Flomper: Well, the Hive certainly was put in their place!! I agree the 'wounded bird' stance doesn't really hold much water (no pun intended) when this whole situation was intiated by myself. But it was worth a try! :-)

[Killjoy]

What is everyone’s view on "Stockpiling" after a facility/unit has been built. I had no idea this was an issue until I saw the thread currently being discussed over in AC Strategy/Help/General.

I think the thread is labelled "What every SMAC Player should know."

Is this an issue with anyone in this game?

Chairman KillJoy, your latest remarks have not gone unnoticed, unfortunately I read them here after it was too late to sign the truce papers. I think this has been a fruitful dialogue and I intend to declare a blood truce at my next opportunity. Let the peace between our peoples be a long one.

Governor Flomper, as we had yet to receive any official aggreement for truce from the governing body of the Nautilus Pirates (or that in fact one would be forthcoming), Hive patrols dealt with a Nautilus Probe team — found within Hive territory — accordingly.

As Chairman of the Hive, I apologize for this unfortunate action and send my condolences to the family of the Nautlius operative. We will continue to strive for a peaceful resolution to the current situation.

Chairman Killjoy
