Beyond Alpha Centauri::::::::Discussion Thread 8

Good plan with Derek and Gary, Mr. Prez.

I like your idea about the Battlecruiser as well. The UA would request it to be returned, especially the crews and people on it back to Terra. After all, the UA is trying to re-acquire all Terran assets to aid in the rebuilding of Sol, Wolf, and Ross using Terran labor, Terran industries, etc. so the Terrans will have a role in the rebuilding.

Hope that made sense!

The battlecruiser weapons and information can be salvaged by the Drones. After all, Drones acquired the battlecruiser before the Terran Alliance became a part of the UA. The Drones could have done some salvage before that happened, then after that, no more salvage since it might cause an diplomatic incident with the UA.

Basically the UA will request the return of the battlecruiser and its whole crew, any cargo on it, etc. Don't worry about the repair since the UA can tow it to a Terran shipyard for repairs.

You see, all Terran assets became UA assets, and that includes run-away ships, Terran merchant ships, etc.

Again, I hope this is making sense.

Anyways, glad to see you still got some ambition for BAC, Mr. Prez!

[Mr. President]

Selling humans for food?

[Sovereign]

Nice twist there, Lonestar.

By the way, I had a real life run-in with your avatar. Imagine that! You see, I was going to a store in my college, and I saw a 8 by 11 inch copied or printed black and white photo of your cat.

You told me you had a friend who is using that avatar on some other board. Does he go to school?

I'm just curious, since the cat in the poster looks a lot like your cat avatar.

I simply cannot escape you, even in real life, Lonestar.

[Frankychan]

Fricken crazy.

Anyway, I'm almost back up to speed. Good to see Sovereign is back. Gonna have a little private altercation in my posts to get things warmed up with the Hive again.

[Lonestar]

You better hurry, the Bree are about to disintigrate.

[Frankychan]

What?!

Well, I'm going to reply to the Drone message being sent in Hiverian space soon. Got my brain cooking now. But I still have to resolve things that Sprayber and I were thinking about before he went to take care of business (kick a** Sprayber)

[Sovereign]

Ahh, good ol' Franky is back!

You still want to continue where we left off? Keep in mind, the Academician is making a surprise visit to Terra and the new gigantic UA battlestations being built to protect Sol.

After the visit (probably in one more post) the Academician will be able to go for the meeting, like we discussed a while ago.

[Frankychan]

Hmmm, maybe we should have a delay......maybe just mention that things are too busy to pursue what we were planning before.

By the way, our lead man on Earth is still in UA custody.

Ubiqtorate (Protectorate Intel) also has a sinking suspiscion that there's a VIP visiting Earth, and the Agrippa (Battlecrusier) is in system collecting as much comm traffic as possible.

[Sovereign]

Hey there Lonestar!

The Protectorate must have some telepaths in its Intel service.

I'm trying to figure out what exactly to do with Mr. Stone. I mean, I'm figuring out what the UA will exchange Stone's freedom for. Perhaps some sort of agreement with the Protectorate such as "you stay in your backyard, and I'll stay in mine" kind of thing... or ask for a general map of Protectorate territory so not to cause more Roving incidents in the future.

Maybe something along these lines?
