Time for war?

[Voltaire]

Comrade Mead has a point, greater cooperation with the Drones would indeed serve both factions well. We are after all permipacted we might as well coordinate and synchronize all our efforts. Furthermore we would also need to make it very clear to the other faction that any such strengthening of relations is in no way similar to the CyCon absorption of the University, we need to distinguish ourselves from the CyCon on this end.

I think this issue is extremely simple:

If we stay with the Drones, we have enough of a reasonable assurance of their trustworthyness that we are essentially guaranteed of winning the game if there is a Hive/Drone victory in the war.

If we backstab the Drones and go with CyCon, not only will the Drones hate us, but the precedent of backstabing one's ally will have been established by us, opening the door rather wide for the less than honorable CyCon to use the exact same thing against us to claim overall victory of the entire game.

Considering that I think we'd end up fighting CyCon under either case and that fighting them with the Drones' help is clearly superior, I say we stick with the Drones.

The fact that a backstab is really only something we should even consider if it is ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY to win the game and in this case it clearly is not (in fact, may even HARM our chances of winning the game) makes this decision obvious in my book.

Stick with the Drones. They have given us no reason to stab them and given us no reason to believe that they will stab us. It's the safer route to victory.

Artists think differently from us common drones. Or is he simply a little different ever since he lost his deputy crown? No he is not different. He is as inconsistent as he's ever been.
