Hive-Pirate Negotiations

Email to Hercules:

Got your message and posted in the Hive. The first approach does not seem to work since the foil was still pretty far from you. I have attempted to contact Drones solicitate their help. I suggest you also directly contact
them for potentially trading HEC and SFF. Depending on the circumstances we might be able to give you Loyalty as a gift if you like.

It involves us, Secret projects, and a few ticked off drones.
Not to mention that Rat laurentius suggesting an attack on The Hive by either the CyCon, the Drones, or both.
Not that I believe that swine... but it's better safe than sorry.

So you mole suggested that the CC had tried to coordinate an attack with the Drones against us? Just want to make it clear. My head is very simple, you need to talk to me in plain language.

Note that said 'mole' may be lying.
That is what he claimed.

He actually claimed that The Drones were going to attack The Hive, and that The CyCon were going to help The Drones if we made a move against them.

Personally I don't believe him.
I reckon, right after we get MMI, we should 'fake vendetta' with the drones. That is, set our stance to vendetta, build copters, but do not aim to harm each-other.
That way, we get more surprise when we attack our common enemies, and it -really- tests where the loyalties lie when it comes to other factions and the Hive-Drones allegience.

I'm going to find the Drones thread and make such a post.
