@Aid I edited the war post to an offer of renegotiation of terms.

Woah woah, what if the Hierarchy wants to occupy the Forge? Them there's naughty terms of peace.

Why would the Hierarchy want to occupy the Forge?

Why would the Hierarchy want to occupy the Forge?

Obviously we need their industrial materials to fuel the engines of war against the Midnight Imperium.

You have all the industrial materials and engines G. All of them.

Or help the vampires overthrow them?

@ Aidannadia well, I'll remove some of the terms but I'll still ask that the Cartel remove their presence from the Forge. If it's any consolation I'll have a trireme squadron patrol in that area against the Dread Sails which would provide better protection then a galley anyways.


Besides, y'all probably need that galley more anyways.

I had every intention of removing the Galley from its post ICly after this battle to guard our own port, but again, you left no room for negotiations with your actions. If you attack me in the Forge's harbor, that is not only an attack on my forces but an attack on both the Forge's sovereignty and safety. There will be no negotiations unless the attack is called off.

And I just saw the edits.

@G: That'd actually be preferable to the Arameri guarding them for me.

I feel for the Forge, caught between a 3 way power struggle

[Aidannadia]

So, based on repair rules having a total of 857 troops left among my squadrons, assuming all soldiers are melded into the marine corps, that means that eachsquadron has a total of 286/286/285 troops assumiong its evenly split as close as possible.

Seeing that I lost 4 Galleys and the enemy did as well, that actually leaves me with ships equal to the total amount of ships in the squadron, meaning that I am missing about 715 troops and some minor repairs on captured ships. I'd assume that'd be somewhere around 50% cost to repair.

Next is the Triremes. Each lost more than 75 percent of their vessels, and were left with 14.3% of their marine corps forces. That being taken into account, I'd obviously prefer that it take a 75% cost to repair them each, but if necessary an argument could be made that in order to make the units whole once more, it may require consolidating the remaining forces. This is ultimately up to G though, so I ask oh Lord, what is your verdict?

Speaking of the Forge, you want wealth for some iron or tin? If you got any. I'm willing use any methods to clear out any issues that you got, that stops you from trading. This offers is to anyone that got base metals.

By the way the fact that the Arameri referred to you as Lord means they view you as a sovereign now big upgrade from the title pirate or barbarian they used before it means I wouldn't be against helping you destroy the Dread.

Yo Novas, want to help the vampires on a project later down the road?

[Novas Arcanum]

I was legit executing a coup for a moment.

Now we all best buds... for now...

EDIT:Also GAme you might wanna do something bout you slaves....

[Aidannadia]

Also, I'll have to think about your demands Novas before making an IC post detailing the Cartel's opinion. Its not neutral territory if you're patrolling it, and you could just as easily use it as a platform to attack the Cartel. I'd prefer the aforementioned idea of the Hierarchy serving as the protector of the Dwarves to that if you'd be game.

Sure the Hierarchy is totally trustworthy.

You can trust them to consistently act within their interests, and they'll be good protectors of the Forger's because of their usefulness to the Hierarchy. Plus, it keeps our power struggle away from the Forge's borders and is arguably the best way beyond fully committing my fleet like an idiot when I'm in a weakened state.

Portal network that uses the Dead Plane as a nexus point.

I yes I certainly trust the Hiearchy won't do anything dastardly.

In any case, I agree to this.

Tbf, I was mainly joking about the terms of the Elvish demands. The Hierarchy has little interest in committing military forces beyond her borders, save when those borders are poked.

Dead Plane does that even exist?

[Aidannadia]

What about a joint force of Elves and Cartel? Or Elvish observers establishing force limits?

As long as there are a sufficient enough of people who worship the Ancestor-Spirits like Xcotl, some of the Elves, and the vampires when I reconnect them to it then the Dead Plane can exist. It will be very weakened since the Uusharan sacrificed themselves to form the first vamps but that can be repaired as long as the faith holds.

Hmm, I'll think about it.

Interesting, but keep in mind the Elves wouldn't trust the vampires enough to work with them.

Hey. no occupation necessary, chief. Don't hurt me
