Just got this PM from Theseus:
Like that'll ever happen!
But wait... do we WANT to tell them off the bat no? Of course not! Let's mess a little with their heads, try to see what would be their price, the details, whatever. Remember, we want to give the impression that we are allies with ND only for the duration of this war. Once it's over it's a clean slate.
If GS feels that GoW-ND will be "permanent" allies it might force them to continue this war since they will see no chance of winning ever if we do gobble up the continent.
Please discuss.
MZ,
I have a question for you: Are you guys really Mercs?
MERCS??!!
If you are, name a price... A price for ceasing attacks on RP, and cooperating with us in dismantling ND. We may or may not be able to meet it... but we'd like to know.
I covenant here and now that we will not disclose this discussion, at this risk of forfeiture (i.e., if we, GS, disclose to the PTWDG world that this discussion has taken place, without your written approval, we will forfeit.).
Be aware, however, that we have discussed this communication with RP.
Further, in the reverse, disclosure of a confidential communication such as this will be taken most negatively.

Possible?

ps: I don't know if this has ever come up in GoW, but you guys might want to check out one Sir John Hawkwood... he would be your patron saint (courtesy of Gordon Dickson and the Dorsai series in science fiction, which is also an ultimate mercenary anthem).
