Yeah, but Kraken, I think many would find that a conflict of interest, being that you are an Imperial and deciding that someone else's faction turns on your enemy instead of you.

*EDIT*

Oh come on, you can't just remove a huge, Snowkan-sized tactical blunder just because you want to! If I'd just edited in the word hyperspace, during Corellia, I would have gotten a right scolding. Anyways, if you want to proceed, then okay, but my forces will be on alert due to the fact that a Black Dragon planet was just attacked by Imperial forces nearby, who quickly fled the scene.

Eh, more common sense than anything else. The reason the Empire attacked was because at last they knew, Tholatin was an Coalition world. Therefore the Dameuns could have worked out that the Coalition had fed false information to the Imperials, and thus were attempting to drive a wedge in between the Dameuns and Imperials. Well, a bigger wedge at any point.

Okay. Well then that's one mulligan. Hope you know I'm saving mine if that's the way we're gonna play it from here out.

But seriously, I think that deleting the thread was a weak cop out. You know you're a strong enough writer to do what you have to...

Even in 'real life' it is not unknown for this military or that to attack the wrong target/party.

Also, your timelines are properly messed up.

The events of Tynna would have happened after Roche, and since this seems to take place Post-Tynna, it must also be Post-Roche. Not to mention R&Ds get a little fuzzy, as in which of yours would be ready in time for this (I see you have a number of new ones).

In other words, either this thread is post Roche and post Tynna, or you'll have to revise your fleetlist. At the least, you'll either have to change your introduction to reflect that for Roche to still be ongoing, then Tynna must not yet have happened, or if Tynna has happened, so must have Roche.

Oh, and if it's post-Roche (as I'm assuming for now) then that means that Ruuvan would be free to lead the defence, yes?

Ok I am confused Dolash. Drayson is entering into the field here with Astrus class Star Destroyers and EMPIRE Project class ships. Both threads were posted on August the 21st in the R&D. They both came online at the same time.

"In a tragic error assumed to have been spawned by Coalition misinformation strategies the New Order has today invaded Black Dragon Empire territory. The incursion was quickly discovered to have been in error.

Rumors persist of a military alliance between the two parties against the Galactic Coalition."



Look, I fixed your problem, Chadd. Masters of propaganda my left fucking cheek.

Why would TNO think GC owned it? Because you looked at the map which hasn't been updated since last march? Not our fault you don't know how to check the planet list which is updated as needed (so much more frequently).

Plus, GC owned it for all of a day IC (probably like 1 hour) before dolash renounced the deal, moving borders back to normal and TNO back him up. Meaning you would have been aware of what planets belong to GC and which belong to BDE.

Furthermore that was how many months ago OOC, which would mean how many more months or years IC? Giving you more than enough time to correct your error.

Of course you could still do the IC prop stuff that beff suggested, but don't expect it to get very far.

Should Ruuvan be unavailable due to the timing of the battle (I still didn't get that too well) I'll just edit his name out and send in Captain Panacka - they're very similar characters, likely to employ similar strategies, only Panacka will take more joy in killing Imperials.

Oh and as for the timeline bit kraken i think he means that the Roche takeover was started well before august 21st and Drayson was already forced to not bring in an Astrus because of the timeline difference. Plus the RP describing the the EMPIRE projects wasn't completed until recently.
