Doing business with the Bavarians is unwise. Why?

- They trade with the Rebellion
- They purchase ships from the Rebellion
- They illegally establish mining colonies without Confederate approval

**

A: you wouldn't know that. nor was it in the laws that Beeblebrox sent me that i cant trade with them.
B: no i dont. i build them myself.
in the laws there is nothing about "must ask confeds before mining in an uninhabited system."

and another:

need i remind you that you have only 6 Lightnings(i destroyed 4) 2 vettes and a single argosy. argosies dont have missiles. my fleet consists of 4 vettes, 15 rapiers, 20 lightnings, a sub-kestrel, and my flagship. i seriously doubt you could have disabled both kestrels and killed 2 vettes. not to mention your vettes are low on shielding. AND IM NOT THE CONFEDS!

I had 15, then 11 then 6 lightnings. I seriously doubt your ships could've got to my system in one post.

PS Sorry about the confed thing...

"Planetary Defence Force: 10 Lightnings, 2 Corvettes and 1 Argosy per planet."

that is your defence force. i killed 4. you have 6 lightnings left and badly damaged corvettes. the argosy would have fallen behind due to it's being so slow. i believe my post is quite valid. hmmm i hate to argue. Beeblebrox, can we get a moderation on this please?

I do agree with the others, I think it's a bit much too destroy many, many cruisers without any casualties on your side. Judge rules in the favour of Deadbeat.

uhm have you slept yet? that made no sence to me. you agree with the others? what others? destroy what cruisers? neither of us have cruisers. and what are you ruling? that i lose 2 vettes and 2 kestrels to 6 lightnings or that i dont get to his base in one post? you need to be more clear.

blinks uhm how did Deadbeat's defence fleet stats suddenly change to 15 lightnings, 5 vettes, and 7 argosies? just 20 mins ago it was 10 lightnings, 2 vettes, and 1 argosy. what the hell?

------------------
Insanity has its advantages

ok i see what i did. i saw deadbeat's earlier post of his defences and then i looked at his later one just now. ok he gets 15 lightnings, 4 vettes, 7 argosies. i still dont see how 11 lightnings could take out 2 kestrels in 2-3 runs. dont forget to take into account the asteroids. about half of our ammo will hit them.

Fine, one kestrel is damaged the other is destroyed.

those were encrypted. you wouldnt be able to read them. and even if you could, there was nothing in them that broke any of the laws you sent me. plus if you were to read them then you would have seen that i did not agree to a treaty of any sort.

As Aaron is demanding surrender DeadBeat's 3 Cruisers come in to save the day. This new pirate fleet makes short work of Aaron's damaged fleet with the loss of one of their own. A Corvette, 2 Rapiers and a Lightning manage to retreat from the Cruiser's massacre.

you sent them to New Antiqua. there is no possible way that they could have crossed the galaxy in one post. at a 3 day jump multiplied by the ammount of jumps needed you would not only need to refuel but also take you over a month to get there. and even if you meant the base i was attacking it would take you 43 days from evildrome(5 posts worth). i will treat that post as if it didn't exist. on another note: you offered peace? hmm i must have missed that. oh well, guess i blew that now didnt i?

I propose a truce, you will get nothing from this foul planet so why waste resources trying to conquer it. In exchange for a permanent truce I can assure you that your system will not be plundered by any of my pirates.

well, now that i see it... one question: if it's so worthless, why do so much to protect it? huh? why?{/edit} and on one last note: why cant anyone spell encrypted right?!?! ok, i think im done with my rant this time around.

I never sent my Cruisers to New Antigua.

Besides, you did the same thing when you decided to invade my planet. You're fleet show'd up the same post that you decided to invade. I sent my cruiser's to Privateer's Haven at least one post back.

I'm defending because Privateer's Haven is useful to me, not to you. It's known for selling illegal goods, unless you're planning to become a terrorist organization it's really useless. If you look at the map it's kind of remote for trade purposes.

god damn i am missing/ twisting a lot of things. damn! im sorry. i could have sworn i saw you send them to new antigua. That staton is just as useful to me as it is you. for one i turn over all the illegal crap to the confeds, then tow the station into Zebetrious to double effectiveness in that system(or sell it to the highest bidder ;)).

try 60 tons. also try 6M. you heavily underpriced it. for a weapon of that power i'd expect to pay a minimum of 5Mcr. after all, that thing is more powerful than the forklift! AND it's turreted? are you SANE?!?!?!?
