The Heaven's Gate Seige | December (or longer) | Version 2.0 | Explained

[Lythrilux]

We politely ask that you do not speak on behalf of another faction. For the purposes of the event, the IFF is not going to be changed. What will change is in phase 3 access to the station. It is poor for the event and not inRP if the nomad forces could spawn right from the station. For the purposes of the event, the balance has shifted.

I am speaking on behalf of Aoi here as Antonio doesn't play anymore and Fran is being a conquistador somewhere. Aoi doesn't want to change control of the station, although you could elaborate what you mean in regards to the phase changes for us please? We could be misinterpreting.

For the following time, the Order with BD had attacked the Gate in the past together. You assume that the Order before was able to do it alone but that is not the case. The AFC this time, and we tell you this again, are the instigators here that went to the Order and BD to do a deal. You can read about it in the posted RP that will give you insight instead of us re-explaining it here.

I'm not sure if I made the point or not in the last thread, but it's bad to make a vanilla comparison as the very means you are using to attack the station didn't exist in vanilla (NEMPs are a Disco addition). Also please keep in mind a lot can happen in 20 years (Order losing Toledo, BD territorial shifts in Kusari, the Gallic War, rise of Aoi and reclamation of the Arch etc), so it's foolish to act like time has been frozen since then.

Also, did you see my replica suggestion? I think it could be a much more positive and easier means for you to get what you want. Aoi isn't trying to deny you a Satsuma (at least, I'm not). We'd just rather have it that you went about obtaining it in a way that made sense (why would we have Satsuma blueprints? We don't even have Tokugawa blueprints...).
