Excuse me but what the hell is this?

If I recall correctly your aggression was deemed illegal by the Council, furthermore please show me this ‘international recognition’ of your spoils of war, the Hive does not recognize your claim to any such spoils obtained during an illegal action, nor does PEACE recognize your claims, and I would be surprised if the Drones recognizes it as well; so clearly it hardly has international recognition, in fact the opposite is true, your claim does not have international recognition.

The colony pod flew the CPU colours. It responded to CPU orders. It did not respond to PEACE government orders. So that is 3 factions at least that recognise the CP as CPU property.

Second of all the CyCon was attempting to use civilians as a shield in an attempt to establish a military base within the reach of Hiverian soil.

As has been pointed out numerous times, if we wanted a base there we would have done so before giving the Hive a chance to slaughter our civilians.

Also is that a threat? Should we take this as the view of all CyConians?

While I understand that comprehension is not your strong point, I will give you the benefit of the doubt and repeat myself. "I for one". How many people does "one" represent? For those of you who answered "one", you are correct.

The Hive wants peace, but we will have peace on fair and equitable terms, not on your terms.

When your terms involve killing our unarmed civilians whenever you feel "threatened" by them, then that is unacceptable.

The People of the Human Hive do not take well to threats; I suggest that the CyCon tone their rhetoric down if they want to remain on amiable terms.

This is amiable terms? Our civilians are being killed and you feel this is akin to sitting down with a nice cup of tea? Come back to reality - you have attacked our people and our property with no provocation and with no warning. Not even Nostradamus could have predicted CPU would be upset over this.

I hate to be a nitpick, but you've mentioned reasons, not factions

No civillians were killed, as pointed out before. They were humanely freed from the mind control devices and released into the wild. We have attacked none of your people, and the only property of yours that we destroyed was a mind-control node built into the PEACE CP in question.

Nostradamus, more tea?

Nostradamus strikes as more of a gin sort of guy, to be honest.

Nostradamus says he prefers water

I think he was more of a methyl alchohol type of guy

CPU isn't a reason. It is a faction. So is PEACE.
Forgive me if I missed your point totally.


Jam, I can't quite understand how you believe missiles hitting a colony pods walls would not cause any death.
Something is amiss.


And Nostradamus smoked crack. He didn't go in for that fancy drink stuff.

[Jamski]

Missiles, pah!

We never fired a missile, the mere THREAT of the crew's handweapons was enough to force them to turn off the mind-control device, allowing them to be quickly overpowered by the loyal PEACE citizens revenge rampage through the CP.

Skanky... I'm not sure Tass HAD a point

[Skanky Burns]

Actually, I may even go out on a limb and call the Uni a faction as opposed to a reason.

[Trithemius]

I'm really confused that this is still an issue.

If the Cybernetic Consciousness is really concerned about the loss of this colony pod to Hive forces then perhaps they should threaten the Hive militarily, instead of threatening PEACE or attempting to assign blame?

[Jamski]

Really the CyCon need to adopt an "easy come, easy go" attitude.

They stole a pod, they lost it again, everything is as it was before.

No big deal, eh? Would have been wiser never to have stolen it.

In fact, it was wise of CPU to obtain it.

Only to bad we didn't had time to bring it away to it's home town, Atlantis. All those people there we have to send mourning communications because their loved ones are, well, incinerated by their so called protectors.

You may continue to state that those people were only liberated (how can that be if no air transport is available), but any sound mind can imagine the destruction when missiles close in on unarmered vehicles.

[Jamski]

They were liberated. You CyCon have still failed to penetrate our security blocks. Only the Hive have access to the reports of that operation.

Sorry, they were liberated.

"released into the wild" - Jamski

Need I remind you that Chirons atmophere is unbreathable, thus everyone succumed to suffocation once outside the Colony Pods protective environment.

[Jamski]

The atmosphere of Chiron has been breathable for at least the last 30 years.

At any rate, the Hive people are doing ok.
