Dolash, do you want to RP any of the ships that come across the blockade, or should I just go with it?

Actually, for a while I have been thinking about a trade of planets with your guys. I want Farquak and Farquak Junior back, and you obviously want Lorize. We could probably also add in Abregado-rae, since it isn't near any of our planets, but near some of yours.

*ahem* May I point out how the Coalition works again? 'trading' planets is against the ideology of the Coalition.

Hot damn, I knew I negotiated with the wrong member. Here we had to make a fuss and invade, and Jan just trades... shyyyyyyt.....

Better that Dolash then to have the other powers invade them and have them "threaten" innocents in a pitched military battle. It's the most peaceful way to get it done.

Plus we can make up some IC bullshit reason for why the trade happened. Such as the citizens of Lorize and Abregado-rae held a referendum and decided to join TNO. And it could be the Cren wanted to re-unite their star system, so they can better try to accomplish their goal of finding their homeplanet.

Hm... y'know, if you had a good IC reason for why the people CHOSE to join TNO, and then the planet they offer in return CHOSE to join the Coalition, I'd be fine with that. I'm just against our characters handing over planets and territory in big meetings, because that makes no real sense.

Let me guess, the people of Honoghr "chose" to join BDE?

You'd have to be as stupid and ignorant as a blind, deaf, and dumb brick in a sack at the bottom of the ocean, possibly where the sun doesn't shine, to want to join BDE. But apparently, 20% of Honoghr's population can be swayed by a simple deal of "We will help restore your planet, just like the last guy, but we want your sons"

If that's possible, anything is.

Dolash:

Just want to clarify where your fleet is coming from. If they're coming in from outside the Kathol Sector, than your ships have to have passed by Pembrick 2, meaning that we know you're there.

Otherwise, they' all came from inside the sector, which begs the question... why is such a large fleet on station in an Imperial sector with one GC-held world?
