Flo says he sent the turn to Tig on the 7th. Did you get it OK Tig?

[TigToad]

Turn sent... sorry about the delay, my father-in-law died this week... things have been hectic.

[Misotu]

Sorry to hear your news Tig.

2169 sent to Paul.

[TigToad]

Turn sent... we regret the unfortunate accident that unleashed a canister of gas onto a drone city from one of our passenger planes today...

[Misotu]

Sorry guys, I don't know why this turn took so long to reach me ...

Anyway, 2170 is finally on its way to the Prime Function.

2170 sent

[Ersatzflo]

2170 sent. The PK's can gas as many U.N. whatever bases as they want to; we are more concerned by that half dozen 4X jets the Gaians build....

In the name of planetary prosperity, lets stay away from medieval style atrocities.

[TigToad]

Your wish is my demand..one more drone base gassed.

Tig

[Misotu]

The Gaians are a peaceful people, but we are concerned by aggressive Drone policies towards the Peacekeepers. While we do not approve of many PK policies and their tortuous bureaucracy frustrates us as much as the next man, we see no need for this war.

We let it be known that we will defend ourselves against any aggressor, with any means at our disposal.

2171 to the Prime Function

[Paul]

2171 sent

[Ersatzflo]

2171 sent. The Drones ? AGGRESSIVE ?! Our combined unit losses and units in the field are less than Tigtoad lost to date in his relentless, but poorly executed assault.

[TigToad]

ASSAULT? What Assault? I was blackmailed, bribed and threatened. I removed a probe team from my world and have lost several bases since. The sound of Drone planes are always over head and my people are dying in the streets as food supplies are unable to reach my citizens as your gorillas attack mercy caravans. We are the Peacekeepers and have never desired anything but peace.

Tig

[Misotu]

Given the position of the Drones on the power graph, the Gaians feel that they have no option but to construct a deterrent comprising the most powerful weapons at their disposal. The Gaians believe that Planet is big enough for everyone - if certain factions believe that they require more territory, then this would be indefensible and we will resist to the last drop of our blood.
