There is no problem that they would want to do this. Now do they have the ability to surprise attack us? If they do attack us then we have every reason to start war against them.

ps. Mead, I have not got your turn yet. Would you please post the upload link in the forum?

I'm working on the upload.

I finished the turn but I am having problems with the upload.

Remember the trouble I had with getting the turn downloaded a few months ago.

We probably need some form of stance on what members should say if comments are made in chat channels by CyCon members about the possibility of a war. Personally, I think we just sorta shrug off the possibility as unlikely, but perhaps continue to be a bit obnoxious about the Planetary Council resolution.

[Arnelos]

btw... I should mention here that I think it's pretty clear that CyCon knows we're about to attack. Our Planetary Council motion, I would guess, has killed most of what would have existed in terms of a strategic element of surprise. They know we're coming.

Hopefully, however, we can preserve an operational element of surprise... the timing and nature of our attack being secret until CyCon is already hit.

Indeed, they know we are coming but they do not know when, I believe we still have the element of surprise on our side, or at least as you say the operational element of surprise.

[Jamski]

They may just think its a big bluff.

[Snowflake]

Just try to give them the impression that the Hive is a big mess inside and nobody really knows what we are going to do. (which is half the truth anyway isnt' it )

[Frankychan]

...but I'm banking on them getting ready for an invasion. Hopefully we can blindside them.

[Arnelos]

With the current debate about the status of the PEACE faction in the vote, I had to chime in on the issue.

I'm doing that RIGHT NOW

[Snowflake]

Oh and tell them that we think THEY are going to surprise attack us. That is also the truth isn't it.

[Voltaire]

Can anyone get the Drones to vote on the Council resolution? That will lend legitimacy to our cause.

[Jamski]

I told the CyCon it was just RP.

They WILL be surprised.
