Turn 2212 to ColDark

Qantaga - Understood. I've offered a truce again but I understand if you don't want to accept.

On another note. I've talked it over with ColDark and I was wondering if you fancied another game together under similiar lines? We made a mistake at the begining by trading our techs early on which has set us back for the game so we want to be able to correct that mistake in a new game. I don't mind if it takes a more leisurely pace whilst we play 1812 but when that is finished we can hop over to the new game. What do you say?

Qantaga · December 14, 2001, 12:25

Hi guys,

I am at a customer site today. I cannot retrieve my e-mail until late tonight, but I can get to Apolyton.

SITS, I cannot speak for Deimos, but you can count me in. I am really enjoying this game, so I would be up for a second team game. Here's hoping Deimos is up for it, too.

MY 2212 to Quantaga

I'm tennatively in. I need to see what my workload is going to be like after the first of the year. If things look acceptable, I'm in.

Qantaga · December 15, 2001, 15:21

Gentlemen, I apologize for the reload. I had the turn up this morning and my wife called me away for a moment. When I returned, my two year old had somehow managed to close the game.

2213 to SITS.

SITS · December 18, 2001, 00:06

I sent the turn on to ColDark yesterday and I've just sent it again in case it didn't get there...

ColDark · December 18, 2001, 14:14

I was fairly sure that I took the turn and mailed it from home on Sunday. If Deimos has received that turn then he should play from that one. If not, then I have taken the turn again from SITS' resend, and that's on it's way to Deimos now too.

Cheers all

MY 2213 to Qantaga

Attenion Pirate and Gaian Penetrators! You have illegally entered Believer air-space. Turn around and return to your air-space immediately.

Any further intrusions into Beliver air-space will constitute a violation of the Non-Aggression Pact of 2210, and unless they

, violators will be summarily shot down. Surviving crews will be

This is the only warning you will receive.

SITS · December 19, 2001, 17:23

Turn 2214 to ColDark

I guess the Believers will also be moving their transport from British waters?

Aircraft removed and I'm taking Airspace to mean within a base's area.

ColDark · December 22, 2001, 06:56

Sorry I've held the game up. I've had lots to do, and I've only just been able to get to it.

2214 to Deimos.

Deimos. I note your transport ship heading towards my Eastern Territories, I am presuming that it is lost, maybe it's navigation suite is faulty. Anyway, I would advise against landing there, it is a hostile place. There are renegade lifeforms all over. I recently lost contact with one of my pioneer bases in that area, and am currently looking into what happened.

In case you are lost, I have a scout plane on hand to escort your transport back into safer waters.

Qantaga · December 22, 2001, 14:31

ColDark, no worries on the delay, it is the holidays, after all. I'm sure the turns will all move a little slower until the new year is well begun.

I hope all of you have a wonderful holiday season.

2215 to SITS.

Hmmm.... it seems like there are a lot of lost units floating around these days. ColDark, it seems like one of your IoDs has wandered right up next to the city of Charleston. Since you were so nice to offer Deimos an escort back home, I will be happy to provice a nice Chopper escort to help your IoD find its way.

ColDark · December 22, 2001, 15:35

Whoops. I think it went a little of track. I will remove it.

Qantaga · January 5, 2002, 18:53

Wow, I can finally get back into Apolyton again.

Flubber will be taking over the reigns of the Believers for the forces of good and truth in this game.

2216 sent to SITS.

ColDark · January 9, 2002, 21:46

I haven't heard from SITS in a while. He's not answering my email and nor posting on Apolyton. Any ideas?

Qantaga · January 9, 2002, 22:09

Hmmm....

Well, first off, I really hope everything is okay with SITS. Hopefully, this is just a matter of work intrusions, internet difficulties or extended holidays.

SITS has been amazingly reliable for the past eight months and he has built quite an empire for himself in this game, so I think we should give him a few more days before looking for a replacement.

ColDark · January 10, 2002, 09:03

Okey Dokey

SITS · January 10, 2002, 11:52

Turn 2215 to ColDark

Very sorry for the delay but RL has been a bit busy for the last few weeks. I've been concentrating on getting the 'smaller' game turns out as I didn't have the time to devote for the longer ones. Hopefully things will be back on track now.

Flubber · January 10, 2002, 13:49

hey folks

It appears we are in business

As a Canadian and in particular being from Newfoundland ( British colony until 1949) I hereby wish to defect to the British and offer my forces in the defense of the Queen and parliamentary democracy

Seriously though-- qantaga provided me with a prior turn to review and it looks like a very interesting game. The long truce seems like a pretty fun idea

Let the games begin

Welcome aboard Flubber! I was just responding to your post before the edit - I prefered the first version!

ColDark · January 10, 2002, 14:25

I echo the welcome. Turn passed to Qantage (cos I am at work and I don't know flubber's email (oops)).

I will forward the mail to flubber when I get home but may I ask Qantaga to do that too, in case, during my home computer rebuild (a bit of a pain), I lost the address.

ColDark

Flubber · January 11, 2002, 12:23

Thanks gang

Its interesting getting into the mindset of the believers (whom I rarely play) and that of my predecessor. Its always different when you take over for someone since there are always playstyle differences.

2216 was received from Qantaga, played and sent on to Qantaga

My email for games is sharris4141@yahoo.com or sharris41@hotmail.com . I use the yahoo account more but check both regularly

ColDark · January 11, 2002, 12:37

OK. Thanks for the e address. I didn't have it at home. But I will now.

Qantaga · January 11, 2002, 14:27

2217 sent to SITS.

With Flubber's arrival, I thought we might want to clarify the non-aggression agreement. I told Flubber that the agreement was to cease any hostilities until 2230. At that point, anything goes. Is that everyone else's understanding?

ColDark · January 13, 2002, 08:22

Yep. Sounds right to me.

SITS · January 13, 2002, 09:22

Turn 2217 to ColDark

I agree with ColDark, although there is no reason why we cannot extend it if all parties agree.

I notice some land is now endangered. Has someone got a Global Warming message? If so, can when did it start and how much will is rise by?

Qantaga · January 13, 2002, 10:21

I did not get a warning, either. I just noticed that I had endangered squares for the first time this last turn. So, it must have just happened.

SITS · January 14, 2002, 14:08

Will be doing the turn early tomorrow. Sorry for the delay....

Flubber · January 14, 2002, 16:12

2217 to Q

I got the message as well-- I believe it said 120m in 20 years but my recollection could be faulty

Believer News

There was a minor incident this morning when Nautilaus jets "buzzed" a Believer tour boat carrying 250 tourists on a sightseeing expedition. No less than 5 Nautilaus jets overflew the boat at heights estimated as less than 200 metres, rocking the boat with their jet wash. The Believer tourism commission has made a complaint to the Nautilaus aeronautic commission. There were no injuries.

In other news . . . .

The Cybernetic Nation extends its best wishes to those poor, innocent Believer sightseers and hope they soon recover from their traumatic experience.

I hope Beleiver 'Tourists' keep the faith...

2218 to Q

In the news today

Over 30 passengers on the Believer tour boat have been approached by a man from the long-lost Morganite clan. This individual claims to be a lawyer,a profession unknown in these Believer lands, and that he could obtain large money damages from the Nautilaus group in return for " a piece of the action". the High Ecclesiatic Chamber has issued an edict and any believers contacted by this man are instructed to inform their local priest or the nearest detachment of the HOLY GUARD immediately.
