GoW FA thread 1

[Rhothaerill]

According to what Vondrack sent me yesterday while I was talking with him about the ND deal, Lego has already contacted GoW about a medicine deal and it would look strange if they broke it off now.

Agreed. That is what I expect they would do. They do not want to upset anybody's apple cart now.

we aren't going to fool anyone by pretending not to be Lego's freind

It's not that we don't appear to be what we're not. Jumping up in tech so quickly has kind of quashed that. The point was that Lego has already started dealing with GoW to receive medicine. If they break it off now and receive it in 20 turns from us then who is to say that any of the other teams will want to make tech deals with us or Lego in the future if Lego breaks off a deal they've already worked on in order to get it for free.

Greetings to Master Zen, UnOrthOdOx, and the many fine people of Glory of War.

Within the next two turns we will complete research of the technology of communism and we are inquiring about your interest in this technology. If your team is interested we can discuss a deal. Vox Controli is currently interested in other technology, gold, and options on 20 turn luxuries. We look forward to hearing from you.

Regards,

Rhoth

Message to GOW

Greetings to Master Zen and UnOrthOdOx of Glory of War,

A few weeks ago I had sent you a PM regarding the communism technology and I was wondering where we stood on that. Would your team be interested in a deal?

Thanks,

Rhoth

Doh, I actually did read it, then forgot about it and was reminded about it when I chatted with Zargon a week ago... and then I forgot again...

So, sorry for the late reply. Perhaps we could be interested, what price are you willing to set on it? We're not that rich btw, but perhaps we have techs you don't and we can also chip in some more of those delicious bottles of Dom Farbignon 960 AD over your way

Tell me what you think, and apologies again for not having replied back to the last PM. GoW sends its regards to Vox

And my response

Greetings Master Zen,

We are interested in technology of course, or alternately we could work out a deal for gpt. I'm not quite sure what you guys have to offer at the moment techwise. Goldwise we would be looking for about 750 gold, either in lump sum or gpt payments.

As to the Dom Farbignon, that year is still very ripe. We'd probably choke on it.

Greetings from the land of wine, bearded ladies and massive gang-bangs.

The Glory of War would simply like to express its gratitude to the Voxian government and people for having remained neutral in this struggle against the evil Lego kitten killers. We understand Vox's close ties to Lego and thus our invasion was not likely something which came as pleasant news, nevertheless we want to reasure that neither GoW nor GS has any territorial ambitions outside of previous Legoland territory. On GoW's behalf we want to reaffirm the strong bonds of frienship which exist between our great nations. As a result we have a few points we want to make clear:

1) Lego might gift Vox the city of Invoice this turn. We have no objections to you keeping it as part of your empire.

2) GoW is open to dialoge in case Vox has lost any crucial resources due to the capture of Lego cities, we will be glad to provide them as an emergency measure.

3) Given that you have lost you major tech partner, GoW would be more than willing to colaborate with Vox regarding tech issues in the future, filling the gap which Lego has now left.

4) Repeat again, we have NO intentions whatsover of undertaking any form of military action against Vox, GoW and Vox have been friends throught history, and will remain as such hopefully until the end.

Best Regards

Hmm - and some land to boot. I guess it is too much to ask for Little Bob.

Everybody sure is being friendly to us. I think they want us as a research partner.

[Rhothaerill]

My response so far. I sent the same thing off to GS too to give me some time to frame a response. It's late and I've been busy with other things (and other games )

Sorry I haven't gotten back to you lately. I've been pretty busy in RL.

I'll try and get a formal response to you by the end of the week.

From H_E via e-mail....

Other news:
Are you still keeping an eye on the PTWDG #1 ?

MZ was supposed to talk to Vox about the post Lego situation.
GS, I think, asked us to talk to you as well.
I don't know if that has happened, but with MZ away, busy negotiating with GS on the
land split & keeping ND off our backs, I am not sure if he has done it yet.

Do you know what's up with Lego?
Their plans?

Here is what I know.
GS & GoW will split the Lego Continent.
GS wants to relocate RP. I think GS feels more secure if they hold onto their entire
mainland.
ND wants a piece of the action for doing absolutely nothing.
GoW is in no rush to send over settlers.

What does Vox plan to do in the near/far future without lego?
You don't know how many times we brought up trying to get you guys back onto your
continent. With GS as powerful as they are, (again) I cant see it happening
though .
I think most of us are still hurting after our sole military defeat.
Anyway..
Have you guys built a FP yet ?
Lego land is pretty corrupt for us. But everyone still wants a piece of it.
I can vision some very nice deals between Vox & GoW in the near future.

My response....

Yes - sounds good. We have no FP as of yet. Just never worth it. We would be interested in a proposed alliance. But we would like a piece of Lego to work with.

[Beta]

and his reply back...

Hey Beta,

It's good to hear that you are interested.
Just remember anything I say is still unofficial.

Just to start off. I mentioned giving you guys some more land in our forum.
No one was against it.
We are still discussing what should be done with the Lego territory. Like I
said before, ND wants a share, even though they didn't participate in the
war. *Bastards*

Just don't start popping out settlers and repopulating too quickly. Let me
know whats happening first. MZ likes the idea of getting you guys a FP & 2nd
core. But it has to be planned out first with ours & ND's land requirements.

I guess we have a few questions.
Do you know what Lego is doing ?
I haven't opened the save for a long time, but I guess we are just hunting
them down.
This game is bugged, in that war is not generating any unhappiness for
anyone.
So I don't think we care if we end up "continuing the hunt" or just "calling
for peace".
At the moment, its not been talked about in our forum.
But I guess I am interested if you happen to know their plans.
Don't give away anything your not supposed to

We'd like to get you up to date in tech.
Which will obviously include the receipt of your free tech.
So can you give us an idea of what you are studying and how long to get
there.
I guess we can work out what techs you are missing.

Feel free to make suggestions from your side.

GS priorities are more land, claiming resources & getting RP resettled.
It's the same with GoW. (Although we don't care much about RP
You guys are safe where you are, so don't start blowing gold on extra
military.
It wont be needed
