PUT Diplomatic Exchanges

[Maniac]

From GeneralTacticus:

After some discussion and the obligatary period of doing nothing, we've come to a decision regarding yor proposal.

First of all, we have unanimously accepted your offer of a peace treaty.

Secondly, we would like to know what techs you have available to trade, and what techs you'd like. We would especially like to acquire Applied Physics.

Finally, regarding comm frequencies, we've discussed the matter, and we have to say we're not too interested in them, as the Planetary Council will likely be called soon and we'll get all the comms then anyway.

Comments will have to be for later, as I have to go now.

[MrWhereItsAt]

That sounds promising.

As to next, we should say we are happy we could arrange this treaty, tell them we have settlement designs on the land their rover is on, and ask that we draw up a sort of border treaty, reserving that area for us, and asking if they have a similar sized area they wish reserved near their bases.

[Impaler[WrG]]

Thats a PEACE rover, this is University. And as far as I know we dont realy have any claim to that land the Peace Rovers is on, we shouldn't even mention this to University in my opionion.

We should truthfully tell them what we have (as they likly know by second hand reports anyways). If they ask for HEC or NLM we will have to turn them down ofcorse. Traiding them Aplied Physics for Ecological enginering probably would not be accepted, they may have other tecs that we find desirable though.

Also need to ask them what kind of relationships they have with other factions. I suspect their friendly with Peace and unfriendly with Hive and Drones and have no contact with AI's. We need to be descrete so lets word it like thus "We would like to inquire as too your relationship with other factions, many rumors have been heard as to your relationship with the Hive, Drones and Peace but we feel geting this information directly from the Horses mouth would be best. By the way if the Coucil is called soon who do you think you would support?"

[MrWhereItsAt]

We're both wrong, but I seem to have confused matters a lot. I mean to the EAST. As it turns out, the rover is ours (from a pod), and it is a drone patrol there. It is they to whom I mean we propose our claim on the land. I just assumed that, since we don't have Doc:Mob, the rover would not be ours.

[Impaler[WrG]]

Oh I agree with you on Claiming that Land, the Drone Patrol was aparently fighting mind worms and getting its ass kicked, they might just disband the whole think its so beat up.

Wouldn't the fact the rover is our color indicate it belongs too us??

[Maniac]

Yeah but with all those messed up graphics his mistake is certainly understandable.

[Impaler[WrG]]

This message has been sent to Archaic and General Tacticus, this should re reching them just as they play their turns too so we will might get a response in the Games chat log negotiation thingy.


Comunicay from the Cycon Conciousness:

Greatings Full Human Researchers, our most resent comunications indicated you were un-interested in obtaining Com Frequencies from us as you expect the Counsil to be called soon. You also indicated an Interest in obtaining Aplied Physics. We find it odd that such briliant physisits such as your self would require such a low level tecnology. Being that it is a military tecnology which leads to yet more tecnologies you could quickly research we would need something quite good in Exchange. What do you offer us in exchange for Aplied Physics? We are interested in Obtaining Restriction lifting tecs at the moment particularly Ecological Enginering.

Duplicate messages have been sent to Archie/General Tacticus, we shall begin sending messages in Duplicate and Triplicate when ever possible. Direct any responses to Manic, myself and Drouge. Are their any additional University Faculty you wish for comunications to be sent to (I am unfamiliar with who your diplomat is)

[MrWhereItsAt]

Not bad, but can we discuss any messages to send to them in the thread first in future?

[Maniac]

Greetings GeneralTacticus and Archaic,

I assume you have received Impaler's message, telling we are willing to trade Applied Physics, and would be interested in acquiring Ecological Engineering.

In your latest message you also mentioned you believe that the planetary council will be called soon. May we ask why you believe so? We have information that, though in the past certain factions had the intention to do so, they have chosen to wait to call the council for an undetermined time. This mean that you wouldn't get eg the drone frequency in the near future after all. Therefore please keep in mind that we are always willing to trade the drone frequency to you, as a seperate deal or as part of a package deal.

We were also wondering about the nature of your pact with PEACE. May we inform how close you two are together?

Greetings,

What would you think about that? I doubt they would accept EcoEng<->AppPhys, but perhaps they will if we throw the drone frequency in the pot. Also knowing what they might do if we attack PEACE might be handy.

[Drogue]

I agree they'll turn it down. If they do, can I offer the Drone frequency as a sweetener?

As for their position diplomatically. Last I heard they were very much against the Hive, like us and PEACE, and were allied with PEACE. I think they may join PEACE in the war, but if they do, I think I can get the Hive to counter join on our side, at least against PUT. The Hive are waiting until we have sea power so they can attack PUT. At least, that was the position a little while ago, the coup may have changed things.

[Maniac]

By all means offer the Drone frequency as a sweetener! I would even be willing to offer a few credits, if that means we get EcoEng fast and can give it to the Hive.

[Phenix]

Maybe they're interested in the Angel frequency too.
That could have some diplomatic impact (see Angels thread) but i'm more than willing to give it away if it nets us EcoEng. Especially because we need it fast for a swap with the Hive

[Impaler[WrG]]

This would be realy sweet if we could parlay a level 1 tec and an obsolete com link and a few credits into Ecological Enginering and Gene Splicing!

I say push that trade through, promise the Univerity future compensation in trade as this will discourage them from vendetaing us.

Also as the Hive what the University is researching, if their reseraching Aplied Physics then we have them by the balls as we are esentialy giving them a free tec (probably Non Linear Mathimatics) and they should pay through the nose for that.

[Drogue]

Since time if off the essance, can I PM GT, Archaic and Minute Mirage (he seems to play the turns) and say if they agree to the deal this turn (so we get it before the Hive get's Eco Eng) then we will throw in the Drones commlink and 20ec? (they didn't seem interested in the commlink before, ec's may swing it) That way we get Gene Splicing too. I have PMed HongHu just asking to confirm when they get Eco Eng, so the time limit if we want to trade it.

[Drogue]

Ok, have reply from HongHu. They're getting Eco Eng in 2150. Since our turn is before theirs, we need to have PUT offer it this turn, we counter offer and accept, and then they accept. Then we have it 2150, and can pre-accept it to the Hive before their turn.

I will PM GT, Archaic and MM to offer it, since time really is lacking.
