Helghast, HF, SCRA negotiations thread. - Koolmo - 11-26-2006
Well, I'm actually here as the 'voice of military matters' for the parties, and you got it wrong Mal, its Aeon who's retired.
So, here goes: I think that this war should be fought over 4-6 neutral/contested systems and 2 "base systems". For the SCRA, the base system should be either O-49, or O-50. O-50 is empty, so it would make the RP a little hard. For the Helghast, i really don't know enough about your area, perhaps a system with a junker base in it would be appropriate. The 4-6 "contested" systems should be in the immediate area of those 2 systems, preferably offering multiple routes to get to each. The omegas would offer the perfect battleground in my opinion, they would restrict the use of capships, but still allow for a good fight, with loads of NPC's around. There should be a limit on the number of allies avalable, 2v2 sounds good to me. I assume the SCRA will be re-hiring the SSO|, as they were the only ones that were fully into the fight with us, and it would save the ELF and the SF the trouble of fighting a war that isn't theirs.
So, there should be several guidleines for the War:
1) Dead is dead. If you get blown up, you are out of the fight for good, no best out of 3 avalable. his adds an RP element to the combat, and makes it more likely for players to use reasonable tactics. IF the combat starts up again within 10 minutes, you are still dead, beyond that, feel free to regenerate.
2) Combat in DESIGNATED SYSTEMS ONLY. Also, traders WILL NOT be attacked, otherwise the war will get bogged down due to lack of funds.
3) Capital ships can not be used in groups larger then 2. this saves everyone sitting at home blazing away in their BS at each other, and adds some realism to the fight. Most navies in Sci-Fi have alot more fighters than cruisers.
4) If there are 3 SCRA on, and 1 Helghast, Only 2 of the SCRA may fight. This way, it saves us the problem of overwhelming forces crushing the opposition. Let us say that each side may only have numbers +1 than the force opposing them. So, 3 vs. 4 is acceptable, but 3 vs. 6 is not.
I might upgrade this list if i think of something else, but that all I have for now. I believe that this war can be turned into a recruitment tool for al factions involved, but still retain an element of real combat.

Koolmo has obviously given this more thought than me. Please take my motion off the table unless it can be incorporated into Koolmo's ideas.
Apologies for speaking out of turn. :)

@Ant. Was about to suggest withdrawal. Thanks.
@Koolmo: I am a blithering, bibbling idiot, Mcintosh. I should let Dis do the talking as well as the recording.
Agenda updated. Guidelines presented by Mcintosh added. Discussion open.

I second that. But the Helghast would choose an area more valuable to us then Sigma 17

well, besides Bretonia, where does the Helghast operate the most?
the omegas sounds like a good battlefield to me.
ill list the main omega systems here:
omega-5, omega-41, omega-47, omega-49, omega3, and omega 7.
if there are any ive missed, please post a correction.
the 2v2 is the most factions i want involved. so for instance, i dont want the AW in this. Dab pm'ed me to post in here. so let him say what he wants to say.
but even though they are the HF's allies, the AW will NOT be participating in this.
the "if you die your dead" rule sounds good to me, let it be in effect from this point in time on.
ideally, i would like this to be a gentleman's war, so no unnecesarry insults and provocations.
im glad we can do this cordially and amicably and maturely.

Well for one I thought the war had ended if I was wrong then correct me. Personally I think we should set up a series of battles fight them then call it over unless QV wants me to earn my pay then we can have whatever but personally I want this war to be over collect my payment and put it all behind me and get back to having fun (psst maybe we can unite again and delcare war on some big faction????) This is a war born out of an arguement why don't we all just kill someone else to get the anger out?

It appears that the HF dont want to participate in this war. ill await further clarification.
i think that there are no longer any hard feelings between the parties, so im rather confused.

I can't understand why the war is going on as far as I am concerned we won the war not militarily but politically I don't want a rehash hey here's a surprise why not negotiate Helghast pay me I or will smite thee and can we all be allies and better allies to each other than before and just go to war with some lawful faction for kicks and giggles?

Whatever everyone else wants im fine with.

There was really only one abttle and the helghast had no part in it. I think the war should be fought in the omega systems for one. And that battle definetly did not qualiy for 500 mil worth. Let us have so good battles and then finnish this. We need to set boundaries and such first though.
And what do you mean; 'when you die your dead' Aeon
