    Initial message to the Angels:

    This an automated broadcast for the Gaian Union. The message is being emitted on all frequencies and all of your members should receive it. We have encountered you faction and we wish to establish official diplomatic relations with you. We are a peaceful nation, dedicated to preservation of the environment, progress and growth. We have no ill intentions towards you and we look forward to cooperation with you.

    We appreciate your tendencies for freedom and free flow of information. You tendencies for a free society is much like our own, and your preferences for democratic system is also notable. However we are worried about your hacking tendencies and we warn you not to try to disrupt flow of information in Gaian Union.

    If we pool our resources we could create a hybrid block that would ensure prosperity of both of our peoples and would successfully stand firm to any opposition from other factions. We are interested in research cooperation and establishing trade routes.

    We will appoint ambassador to your nation, and in the meantime, we ask you to direct all communication to us towards our Lord of Diplomacy Octavian X, and to Chairman of the High Council Lord Chaos Theory.
    Angel's reponse:

    The Data Angels greet warmly their fellow humans in the Gaian Union on this new world.
    The values you endorse in your message are mostly, if not all, in coherence with our own, so we do think a close cooperation between our factions is possible.

    To reassure you, The Angels stance towards the free flow of information is only implemented if dearly necessary as in cases where faction leaders flatly refuse to share information generously with their fellow kin.

    As a start we gladly accept your proposal of a close Treaty with us and start commerce, no doubt mutual research cooperation can be reached as well in the not so far future.

    We politely request that you withdraw your units from our territory and refrain from opening any starship Unity pods within our borders. Due to our current relations, the presence of your units in our territory causes difficulties in using our communication trails. Opening further starship Unity pods endangers our bases and non-military units in the field by exposing them to native planet life attacks. We have already noticed missing pod within our borders. In return we offer to respect Gaian territorial borders in the same way.

    Sincerely,
    Infotrader GeoModder

      The Gaian Union is happy to cooperate with their brothers and sisters on our new home. The Treaty of Friendship we have signed demonstrates that we can both preserve Planet's native life and keep information free for all. Tragedy of Earth must not repeat ever again. We are also open to possible closer cooperation in future. Cooperation in fields of technology sounds interesting, and we would like to hear more. Infact, we are interested in secrets of Industrial Automation, which our scientists have not managed to unlock yet. Our Lordship of Progress is interested if you might be willing to trade this secrets with your Gaian brothers in exchange for compensation. We are ready to start negotiations on this trade if you are willing.

      High Council has acknowledged your request and ordered all our exploration forces to start withdrawal to the extraction point which has been organised for them. Rest assured, we do not intend to endanger your bases with native life. Lady Deirdre would also like to encourage you to seek ways to avoid disruption of native life, unless it is absolutely neccesary.

      We believe we will appoint ambassadar to you within next planetary cycle, until then communication shall resume via current channels. Lordship of Diplomacy is also interested if we should maintain the policy of sending messages to Executive Infotrader, or will Angels appoint ambassador to Gaian Union as well.

      -on the behalf of High Council, Lord Administrator Illuminatus

        Lord Administrator, our thanks for your response.

        First I like to put right a minor misunderstanding. My title of 'Infotrader' means that I am the choosen person to have diplomatic contacts with other nations, it has nothing to do with the fact that I currently forward our public administrative results to the next faction. So for the time being any message that the Lordship of Diplomacy wishes to bring to our attention may be adressed to me.

        The Data Angels are willing to put Industrial Automation on the negotiation table for, naturally, an honest price. We of the Angels do feel however that this technology is quite a milestone for the progress of any faction, and hopes your Lordship of Progress is aware of this. In case the Gaian Union has already an offer ready for the offered technology, we are listening.

        And please do tell Lady Deirdre that her fears are unnecessary, not a single dominant native lifeform has been reported extinct within our zone of control. Though we do have second hand information about native killings in progress near one of our borders by others.

        Regards,

          So, we're like introduced to each other now.

          The Angels are in general quite Zombie to know if already a concencus is reached within the Union for the already mentioned tech exchange proposal.

          To: Infotrader Geomodder
          From: Ouro

          Greetings from the Gaian people!
          I am Lord Ouro, who has been chosen by the Gaians as the head ambassador to the people of the Data Angels. I look forward to working with you and your people. Both my staff and myself are willing to co-operate with your security forces through screening to prevent any unfortunate harm from happening, in the interests of increasing trust. On your part, I ask that you deliver co-ordinates to our pilot of the city we will be based in, or a location where we can rendezvous with your people to be escorted to what will be our new home in the days to come. Now, on to the buisness at hand

          In exchange for your technology on Industrial Applications for Automation, I have been authorized to offer in return, the permanent ownership of the spore launcher that is currently in your lands. Please reply with haste.

          Sincerly,
          Gaian Ambassador to the Data Angels
          Lord Ouro

          ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------


          Greetings, Lord Ouro!

          For convenience, we offer you an embassy in the base the Gaian discoverers alraedy found, Rock-Paper-Scissors. It is already quite a historic nameholder in our brief history on Planet, so the more fitting.

          As for the Gaian proposal for the exchange, we will come back to you with a response after a recess.

          Regards,
          InfoTrader GeoModder


          ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

          Lord Ouro,

          To be frank, the offer by the Gaian Union for Industrial Automation is on the low side. Doesn't the Lord of Progress have blueprints for better suited technologies in exchange for what we put on the negotiation table? We wish to remind you that, after all, our offered technology will open the gateways of progress to the Gaian Faction and such give the power to spread your principals outwards to more backward parts of Planet.

          Sincerely,
          InfoTrader GeoModder

          ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

          To be frank with you too, we may not be clear, but Lordship of Progress is nearing discovery of Industrial Automation and it's secrets will be known to us soon. Our initial proposal of trade with spore launcher was to provide Angels with a unit that can easily explore xenofungus, which would be a great advantage and speed extraction of our troops.
          However is spirit of cooperation we would like to would like to propose alternatative trade. If Angels would have such sight to gift Industrial Automation to Gaian Union in next planetcycle, Gaian Union would be able to redirect all its efforts into a technology that would benefit mutually to both of us. Lorship of Progress is very interested in researching secrets of the Humane Genome next, and if Angels are willing to gift secrets of Industrial Automation to us, we will return the favour to our Angel friends by teaching them secrets of humane genome planetcycle after that.

          Further more, our Lordship of Progress suggests a research pact, in which both of our respective research departments will try to coordinate their efforts for more efficient ways of progress on this alien world.

          Lord Administrator Illuminatus, on the behalf of High Council

          ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

          My fellow diplomat(s),

          It was with some anticipation that a response was awaited. Although not as forthcoming as we hoped, it shows progress.

          Are we to assume that the Gaian Union has no techs to offer at this time for the exchange of Industrial Automation? You can easily check this by offering all your tech in the diplomatic screen to us and see if anything else then comlinks and worldmap shows up. This said just in case you were not aware of the feature.

          Also, the Gaian Union appearantly prefers to have Biogenetics as soon as possible. How quickly does the Union wishes to own this tech?
          We might be willing to offer Industrial Automation next time the opportunity comes, but a level 3 tech for a level 1 tech is rather disparitive. Is the Union imperative in changing to Biogenetics as first priority when we transfer Industrial Automation or can we ask you to research a higher level tech if possible?
          Also, for another possible trade: would the Union be willing to trade a level 1 tech AND a unit of our choice for Industrial Automation?

          The last would be most forthcoming I think, we have some substantial gain on our part while the Union gains two technologies within a few years.

          And in response to another topic brought up: mutual beneficial research does sound as an excellent way to cooperate in the future.

          Sincerely,
          InfoTrader GeoModder

          We are aware of this feature and this is correct - we've put all our efforts into obtaining IA. We would wish to know if you are in possesion of Biogenetics or currently researching Biogenetics if we may - this information may be vital for our decision. If Biogenetics can be obtained from our Angel friends via one way or another I am sure we can redirect our research to higher level technologies, probably of your own choosing. Indeed, if such exchanges are possible we are fully ready to coordinate all our research efforts with you. We also wish to remind you that Gaian Union and Angels would both gain a technology as a result, while discovery of Industrial Automation would only be speeded up for Gaian Union.
          Your proposal is being discussed and we shall make a full reply to your other points soon, but we need to know what is your current status with Biogenetics, as it may be crucial for our decision.

          -Lord Administrator Illuminatus

          ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

          Greetings, Lord Illuminatus!

          I can give you a short answer on this one: no, the Data Angels are not in the possession of Biogenetics, so it can be part of a tech trade.

          In case our proposal of IndAuto for a low level tech (like Biogenetics) and a unit of our choice (only units the Gaian Union already owns, mind you) is a bit hard to swallow, please let us know. We have quite a few other possibilities to offer in that case.

          Also, a question. After some data processing it has come up that the speed at which the Union wishes to acquire Biogenetics indicates that the Gaian Lord of Progress has already decided on a beeline to Bio-engineering. May we know if this assumption has any ground?

          This question is also asked for our preliminary setup of a joint research project. Our current project is also in an advanced state so it is wise to discuss agreements regarding this.

          Your proposal is being taken in consideration, but you should note that most of Lords, including our ambassador to You, is occupied with recreational runing through trees, which occurs regulary every weekend, so it will still take some time before we can give you a definite answer, most probably some time tommorow. We apologize for all past and future delays caused by this. We will try to inform you as soon as our decision has been made.

          I do not have authorisation to directly answer you that question, but I do have a proposal in this spirit too: it is in interests of Gaian Union wishes to cooperate with Data Angels, and research cooperation should be one of objectives. What I propose is a treaty between Data Angels and Gaian Union - if you are willing to sign it, I am sure our High Council and Lady Deirdre will sign it too.

          ---------------------------------------------------------------------
          Treaty of Rock-Paper-Scissors

          Respective factions of Data Angels and Gaian Union, and their representatives which have met in Angel town of Rock-Paper-Scissors, have agreed to a mutual trade and research pact, in interests of deeper cooperation and friendship between their nations. Terms of the treaty are as following:

          1) Both of the signatories agree to mutual cooperation in research and sharing of information.

          2) Both of the signatories agree to immediately share all data about technologies they posses, technologies currently being developed as well estimated years of their completion.

          3) Both of the signatories agree to share their future plans for research and beelines.

          4) Both of the signatories agree to mutually assist one another in research and conduct joint research projects.

          5) Both of the signatories agree to inform one another as soon as possible if they receive technology through unexpected events, such as receiving them via Unity Pods, trade with other factions or unexpected breakthroughs.

          6) Terms of this Treaty will be set in motion with signing of the treaty.


          ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
          Terms are negotiable. I am sure that your positive response will be followed by positive response of Gaian Union. I will propose this to our High Council too.

          Your Lordship,

          This proposal is received and will be put before the DataJacks. A minor clarification if you please. Is this a Pact proposal here or only making clear the exact terms of our current Treaty of Friendship?

          PS: My thanks for your clarification.

          Unfortunately, this is not a pact proposal, nor making terms of our friendship more clear (we have obliged ourselves to trade with you and respect of your borders with it, with the exception of our troops in our soil which we hope to remove soon). I am suggesting signing a kind of research treaty which would deepen our connection, formalize our research efforts and lead to deeper cooperation, and perhaps even pact one day. I would consider it step beyond our treaty of friendship. It also enables full research cooperation between our two nations. This proposal has been put to High Council too. The day of speaking pact with you is not yet at hand.

          ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

          Lord Illuminatus,

          The discussion of the Gaian proposal might take a while, perhaps longer then the time-frame available for the current negotiations.
          Is the High Council prepared to continue present negotiations even without a formal agreement yet signed?

          Also, on a sidenote, may I make a personal inquiry to the well-being of Lord Ouro, the appointed diplomat to the Data Angels? He seems not to have arrived in Rock-Paper-Scissors yet and has missed such the celebrities regarding our joyfull meeting.

          I am not sure what you mean, but we are willing to continue negotiations about IA trade regardless of the treaty. Takey your time, I am sure that High Council will take some time too, but remember, this is for benefit of both of our peoples.

            Talks about IA trade

            Illuminatus
            I propose creation of a special thread for continuation of talks about trade of IA (note: our response may still wait a while).
            GeoModder
            Well, the year is already in Spartan hands...
            I am afraid that some members of teh High Council inexplciably cannot be located. I do my best to speed up the response. My apologies
            -Lord Administrator Illuminatus
            I have received news from the High Council.

            Our next beeline is Biogenetics, but all our research priorities can be changed after that.
            High Council thinks that we can offer you future tech of Biogenetics and Spore Launcher unit for your IA. We await your response.

            -on the behalf of High Council, Illuminatus
            Lord Illuminatus,

            We of the Data Angels have another view of our strategic situation.
            We have simply no need for a Spore Launcher at this moment, since our continent is already scouted.
            How does this proposal sound? We receive Biogenetics and your transport foil in return for Industrial Automation. We are willing to consider the foil as only 'borrowed' for a number of turns or include a comlink to sweeten the pie.
            The foil would be used to receive faster technology in a nearer future which would benefit both our factions.

            I realize that currently the foil is being used to bring back your screening units in our territory, so is it possible to give an estimate of how much time will be involved to do so?

            Regards,
            InfoTrader GeoModder
            I can speak on the behalf of High Council, that Unity Foil will not be transfered to Data Angels. Foil is currently returning to Angel teritory, since it was originally sent to scout eastern reaches - we are afraid that it will take planetcyles until it returns.
            However, we have a proposal that would solve question of our troops in your teritoy.
            We have been considering giving you cartographic data on your continent, but since you claim you have finished exploration of your continent we will have to abandon this proposal. We are ready to fully transfer you control of our units in your teritory in exchange for IA (this includes immediate transfer of Biogentics upon discovery). However, we are very interested in your mention of a comlink. We would like to know what comlink would that be.

            -on the behalf of High Council, Illuminatus
            Lord Illuminatus,

            This counter proposal is quite tempting I must say, and it opens vistas for our first future joint research project.

            Am I correct in assuming then that a Spore Launcher, a Scout Rover and Biogenetics will become Angel property in return for Industrial Automation? Or are there even more Gaian scouts in the area then we know of at this moment.

            Also, the presence of at least two Gaian scouts in our territory indicated that more then one Unity Foil is in your possession, therefore our vision that one easily could be shared with the Unions ' new friends.

            As for the comlink, is this an inquiry for another negotiation, or is the Gaian Union thinking of renegotiating the earlier proposal?

            Regards,
            InfoTrader GeoModder
            There is no other Gaian scouts in your teritory, I can assure you. Can I assume that you have agreed to trade IA, for our transfer of SL and Unity Rover, and our transmission of Biogenetics in future? I must then inform the High Council to recall crews of both units and arrange transfer of control.
            Both of your speculations about comlink were correct. We would like to know more about it.
            -Lord Illuminatus
            Both my assumptions about the comlink?

            Lord Illuminatus, is the Union at this point still eager to start negotiating again over Industrial Automation when we're so close to an agreement?

            But to ask a more specific question, which faction's comlink are of interest to the Gaian Union? If it is one we own, a new negotiation can be started of course.

            Also, both proposals (the Industrial Automation exchange and the Joint Research Treaty) are proposed to the DataJacks as they are now, can you disclose to me how much time the Union has left before forwarding their Administration? Or does the Union not plan to transfer their scouts in current year?

            InfoTrader GeoModder
            GeoModder
            Both my assumptions about the comlink?

            Lord Illuminatus, is the Union at this point still eager to start negotiating again over Industrial Automation when we're so close to an agreement?
            At the time, we thought you will turn down the offer. I do not see why would we need to start negotiating again, if we are so close to an agreement.
            GeoModder

Or does the Union not plan to transfer their scouts in current year?
            The sooner we agree about the trade, the faster we can transfer control of units. I do not see any reason why we couldn't transfer units this turn, unless you want otherwise. I must consult with the rest of High Council then. It is quite eager to hear if we ahve reached consensus about the trade. We can continue further discussions then.

            -Lord Administrator Illuminatus
            Very well, under the assumption that under no circumstance the High Council is willing to exchange a Transport (or Unity) Foil and Biogenetics for Industrial Automation and a comlink the Data Angels can only settle for the Gaian proposal then. These are hard negotiations for free thinking minds as the Angels have it seems.

            Again, the Gaian offer as it is now has been proposed to the DataJacks. If a majority agrees we will of course wish to receive the units proposed this year if possible, even if only for seeing a substantial part of the deal be done already.

            Is there no further news on the deadline of Gaian turn or plans on when to forward it? As you may understand it is hard to decide if no-one is available for voting at this moment.

            Again, the Gaian offer as it is now has been proposed to the DataJacks. If a majority agrees we will of course wish to receive the units proposed this year if possible, even if only for seeing a substantial part of the deal be done already.

            Is there no further news on the deadline of Gaian turn or plans on when to forward it? As you may understand it is hard to decide if no-one is available for voting at this moment.

            As soon as we receive news about IA trade we will proceed with turnplaying.

            -Lord Administator Illuminatus
            Lord Illuminatus,

            Please forward our thanks to the High Council for their patience. I can personally ensure you that news if the proposal is accepted, declined or decision postponed will be sent in time.

            InfoTrader GeoModder
            No need to forward your thanks, you've been patient with us too.
            We would like to inform that this is the list of our priorities for getting comlinks: Morgan, University, Peacekeepers. If you have any of the following comlinks we would like to start negotiations about trade for it.

            -Lord Illuminatus

            We have roughly 24 hours left before the turn must be played and forwarded.
            GeoModder
            The DataJacks will have reached a decision within 18 hours, if not sooner.
            Members of the High Council,

            It is with joy that I announce the agreement of the DataJacks to the deal proposed here.

            We will sent Industrial Automation pré-accepted to the Gaian Union in our turn when we see that all former Gaian units in our territory have switched allegiancy. I presume that these will be a Spore Launcher and a Unity Rover. Also, the Gaian Union will switch their research project to Biogenetics and transfer this to the Data Angels when finished. This will conclude the deal.

            Which brings me to some final questions: how certain is the Lord of Progress that the choice of Biogenetics will be available when Industrial Automation is received by the Gaians? Is the Gaian Union prepared to follow our request for a secondary choice in case Biogenetics is not available? And how long will it take before the deal is finalized? (meaning how many years before your present project is/was finished)

            InfoTrader GeoModder
            I might as well answer this since these questions will be answered in a few turns if not now, and timeliness is somewhat important:

            Our only units in your territory are one spore launcher and one unity rover.

            We are not certain if we can research Biogenetics as our next tech. At the least, we would be interested to hear what your choice would be, given that you know we will have the IA beeline + Centauri Ecology, and nothing else.

            We will complete our current research project in 2137, or the very same year we would receive Industrial Automation , though with good cause it could be delayed.
            Our tests with MinuteMirage's sheet show that Biogenetics should be available to us as our next research choice. We are however not sure if the spreadsheet is completely correct, so there is a small probability that won't be able to research it, and this is from why we are not certain it will be available. So far, teh sheet has confirmed all our research paths.

            -regards, Lord Illuminatus
            Lord Chaos, Lord Illuminatus,

            My thanks for the responses,
            In the small chance that Biogenetics would not be available we propose further researching on Doctrine: Mobility and handing over that tech when it's finished.

            We are still investigating the Tech Treaty in all it's facets at this moment, but the outcome will most likely be positive and be announced during our Administration.

            Sincerely,
            InfoTrader GeoModder
            One quick question honored Datajacks. We are preparing to play the turn, and we have possibility of destroying Fungal Tower before we transfer you control of the rover. It poses a threat to you, since it is producing fungus squares and native units. You would neet to wait for empath units to eliminate it, while we can get rid of him now, before the transfer of control. Do you allow us to remove that fungal tower for you?

            We plan to play turn in two hours, just before the deadline expires.

            Regards, Lord Illuminatus

            There is no need to destroy the Fungal Tower and such destroying valuable native life before it's time. But thank you for the offer.
            We do not want the risk of having a heavily damaged rover, how good the odds are.

            Was that a question about odds? Odds are pretty good, if you wish to know. But it is your choice then. And we wouldn't completely destry the tower, we would take samples of it and plant it again in our continent.

            -Regards, Lord Illuminatus
            Lord Illuminatus,

            No, it was a bad phrasing on my part, not a question regarding the battle odds against the Fungal Tower. Leave it in peace please, for now it is a good protection against an eastern invasion.
            Any more news regarding our request for a secondary tech choice if the first is not available?

            I hope you don't mean us ? Or did you got into quarrel with Yang and his drones?

            We acknowledged it, but we are confident it will be Biogenetics. Doctrine: Mobility will be researched if we cannot choose it. I hope we can discuss coordinated research more soon.

            -regards, Lord Illuminatus
            Lord Illuminatus,

            It was duly noted that from the factions who's comlinks the High Council prefered not one of the factions was included with a tendency of being assertive, that I must say.
            And Doctrine: Mobility sounds like a good starting point for a coordinated research project.

            Does this mean you have neither of their comlinks?

            I shall inform the High Council, but we will need more data about venture . Hopefully the Research Treaty shall be accepted soon.

            -Lord Illuminatus
            Members of the High Council,

            You may be interested to know that your former units are well received and Industrial Automation is forwarded by diplomatic channels.

            It also appears you have met the faction who's comlink we were thinking of offering.

            IT GeoModder
            Yes, you are right, we have met our former collegue Yang. Thank you for your notice, we shall transmit you Biogenetics next turn, if everything goes well.

              Ambassado Ouro,

              Due to our Treaty the Data Angels are proud to announce we have mastered the secrets of Applied Physics.

              As is our current research project is still scheduled for the already announced date. We were able to quell any delay sofar. Hopefully this will continue to be the case.

              Sincerely,
