Foreign Faction Observations

CyCon have probably met another faction.

Manic downloaded the new turn and immediately started posting to his forum without posting the turn.

How did you find that out Comrade Kody? I'm simply astounded to your secret police skills. You should replace Comrade Vev to be the head of all secret polices of the Hives.

[Kody]

Because I was waiting for the next turn.

I noticed Manic posted, tried to go to it and found it was a private forum post. So I checked the turn update and found he had downloaded the turn. About 30 minutes later he posted again.

Then about 3 hours after downloading the turn he logged off.

The pirates are holding their turn up probably for some diplomacy. I wonder which faction they're discussing things with at the moment.

Kody

[Jamski]

Probably they've seen our bases, moved out of sight range and are planning the assualt right NOW.

We really cant know for sure, for all we know they may be trying to work with Miriam.

[Kody]

So you think the priates are a threat?

We're pretty sure the pirates have got something going with the CyCon. Also we're pretty sure that they've met the University.

Lets go over the possibilites.

If they contacted Miriam, they wont get far, but they probably are trying to get what little new tech she has.

If they contacted the Angels, then they will probably try and work some sort of tech exchange.

If they contacted CyCon, then they will probably get a treaty and a tech and map combo trade.

If they contacted The Drones then they may or may not know about our contact with them, they may be aware of us but not vie versa, or Buster could be withholdign them us from them as well.

If they contacted Uni then they will porbably get trades and peace traties as well.

I dont see naythign to be worried about yet.

[Haon]

Also, a lot depends on wher ethey are geographically and who it is they have contacted, once we have more data, then we can determine just how much of a threat they are

[Kody]

Can we try and label factions that we haven't met netural before labeling them a threat.

Kody

[Jamski]

It doesn't work with the Uni, they'll NEVER make a pact with us, and I hope we'll never need to They're certainly not to be considered as neutral.

[Kody]

Can we milk them for techs first though?

Kody

[Jamski]

Do we have tech-steal on, then?

-Jam

[Vev]

No techsteal, Guess we need probe teams or foils

[Haon]

Oh I am all for milking everyone for tech by Diplomacy, we just need to hope we have some allies so we dont have the entire world hate us for evil Diplomacy.

[Kody]

If we consider every person in the world an enemy we won't have any allies.
