OOC: Carrier bays hold fighters only.I remember, back in the beginning of Interstellar Line, one of the neat things of the Syrrinx was how their smaller ships attached to the larger ones. Never went anywhere with that...IC:"I find it very unlikely that any Syrrinx would submit themselves to Trenuan rule. Either we would be equals with the Tsui'Nau, and thus gods to the 'lesser' races, or we would be one of the other races and forced to worship the Tsui'Nau. We find the entire concept of organized religion, distasteful, to put it mildly." Sienta paused. "Are we agreed upon this distribution of the Syrrinx Corporations?"

IC(Meeting): "We have no objection to sharing the resources of the Alata Corporation with the Alizarin, and the other conflicting bids are of no concern of ours."

IC: Such arrangements would be preferably started with Syrrinx children. That way our cultures could be more peacefully assimilated. Were such a thing to occur, the Syrrinx would likely be held in the same regard as the Bivali.OOC: I'm not sure what you mean, Rover... There's ten worlds to split, and three parties. Me and TPTI each get three, you get four?

IC(2-29): "Indeed. It is a wormhole of sorts, and the theory is that it should lead to another sector. We will attempt warping through it. As this is technically part of your domain, do we have your permission to do so?"IC(Bivali Mun): "If the Diemawr will share than so shall we. As the Treanuans are of similar construction to us, it would make sense to also share the implant industry."

IC(All the Science! ALL of it.): "Considering that the system on this side of the gap is ours, it may be more appropriate for both our ships to warp through simultaneously. Agreed?"

IC(Ipsa sciencia potestas science!): When the signal turned violet, the Diemawr ship warped out of the system, following the coordinates set by the Alizarin.

IC:"So you do not merely imply assimilating us into your culture, but taking children from us and raising them for zealots as well?" Sienta paused for a moment, then pointedly turned away from the Tsui'Nau."Well then, all is agreed."PLAYERS: REAP SPOILS!From now on, victories in war will have concrete effects on Starscape, as nations capture technology from each other or develop it out of necessity. Upon succeeding in a war, nations will gain certain benefits depending on how the trophies of war are divided.The Diemawr acquire the ability to produce Battlemechs, thanks to their control of Defiance Industries. Further details will soon be PMed to Rover.The Alizarin and Diemawr, thanks to their control of the Alata Corporation, will gain a +1 to their empires' total industry, so long as they control at least one system that was once colonized by the SyrrinxThe Alizarin and Trenuans gain several roleplay benefits from their control of Kaurava: The possibilities are mainly limited by imagination, but such possibilities include Technolepathy, replacement limbs, Brain/Technology interfaces, and the like.The Trenuans, from their purchase of Inherent, gain both immortality through replacement bodies and the underside of that technology; the ability to transfer a living personality between bodies, or even into a computer.In addition, the Trenuans now have access to the blueprints of all Syrrinx ship classes, and the technologies within(except the Containment Metal, which was secret)

OOC: Oh wait, you're right. :PIC: A message was sent to the Diemawr.Due to you having jurisdiction over the majority of the Syrrinx race, we would ask two favors, which we are willing to compensate you for, however you should desire.First, we would request 15,000 Syrrinx, primarily children, and most speaking and understanding one language, to be transferred as citizens of the Treanuan Dominion. Second, we would ask to inspect the Syrrinx homeworld of Ath- their government no doubt held secrets there, which we would of course share with you upon finding.Should you accept this offer, we will recompensate you for your trouble in a manner of your choosing. We await your decision. May you prosper always.

Well, would you just look at that?

OOC: You don't have to gain a Syrrinx world to get your benefits.Expect Diemawr mech classes within the week. Now that I've got the resources, you'd better believe I'm going to have some fun with building up ground forces.Also, is it an extra +1 for each Syrrinx world, or just if you have any Syrrinx world?IC(Meeting): Due to the implied privacy of the message, the response came not from the delegate at the meeting, but the Lord President himself, over a secure comm. channel.[We must decline, to both requests. For the first, any Syrrinx under our tree are full citizens, and I can no more give them to you than I can my own people. If they choose the branch leading to your root-worlds, then that is their decision, not mine. For the second, as it is our intention to assume management of Ath ourselves, any secrets kept there are ours to discover, and ours to disclose. The Diemawr thank you for your time, your cooperation, and the directness of the branch you have taken in your request.]

OOC: Works for me, I guess.IC: Thank you for your time, then. Please extend the offer of Treanuan citizenship to all willing Syrrinx citizens. May you prosper always, should the Makers will it.OOC: Okay, since there's several unclaimed Syrrinx worlds, couldn't I just drop in, grab the kids, and leave without anyone saying anything? Or just claim the planet, whatever.IC: Suddenly, the Grand Proctor spoke again.Upon further consideration, we would request control of the closest Syrrinx world, 2-14, in addition to 2-32 and 2-24. No claim shall be made to 2-25.

OOC: Well, if you claimed planets not granted to you by the agreements - especially if it were one of the worlds claimed by the Diemawr - you'd have a few very angry people on the Treanuans' backs. Abduction would likely not go unreported by the Syrrinx, which would lead, once again, to angry people.IC(Meeting): "We are going to have to contest that claim, owing to the extreme proximity of 2-14 to our territory, and its distance from Treanuan territory. Three worlds claimed by us - including Goron-Trysor - stand between 2-14 and any Treanuan worlds. As the colony would have no direct route from it to any Treanuan worlds, it would be more sensible for us to claim the planet, and for the Treanuans to follow their pre-stated branch.""On that note, we put our official claim in as Calinar, Ath, 2-14, 2-15, and 2-26. With the Treanuans taking 2-32, the system we have generously conceded to them, and the previous suggestion that we, for our greater losses in the war, take the greatest share of the Syrrinx territory, this matches well with all prior arrangements."

IC: However, we wish for ownership of a Syrrinx world, and you are already to receive two. As we are allied, we feel that it will be no great trouble for us to cross through system 28. As we are to receive system 32, only one crossing would be necessary.After a moment, he spoke again.With the Syrrinx claims now unnecessary, there are ten unclaimed systems. As the Dimemawr took the greatest losses, they should receive the biggest portion. However, with three parties now claiming, these ten can be split 3-4-3, with the Diemawr gaining the larger share. This seems the fairest way to us.

IC(Meeting): "We have conceded quite enough already. The world is populated, and as the Syrrinx have expressed no desire to become Treanuan citizens, your claiming it would require the evacuation of the planet's population to other worlds, an operation we are not prepared to undertake. In addition, the only concession you make to allow for this ploy involves a world we have no interest in, as the system of 2-25 does not border Diemawr space."

IC: If you are to claim Syrrinx as your citizens, we have the same right, being your equals. They will be treated well. Now while you did take heavier losses in the war, you desire a larger share of the land than this allows. We will all get roughly equal portions, with yours being a system bigger to account, should our plan go through. And, as you have not yet colonized system 28, perhaps we could concede both 24 and 25, and claim 32, 28, and 14. You would still have room to claim the remainder of the Syrrinx worlds, as well as expand further. This seems agreeable to us.

Well, would you just look at that?

IC(Meeting): "You are incorrect on several points. Firstly, we are not claiming the Syrrinx as citizens - we are accepting them as our citizens, as they have shown greater willingness to go with us than the Treanuans. Civilians, be they Syrrinx or any other species, are not property to be claimed. Second, our claim does not exceed that allotted - rather, we claim five systems to account for the one lost due to ceding 32 to your kind. Thirdly, the system you call 28 has been colonised - it is the site of the Goron-Trysor colony, and it is not our fault that your maps are out-of-date. You may have 32 if you do not continue to press your luck - further concessions will not be made."

IC:"I sincerely doubt any Syrrinx will submit themselves to your control." Sienta said. "And kidnapping children in the night like Outlings would be more than objectionable to us. Startide and Kaurava need not listen to you entirely; they are nations in their own right."OOC: Remember, you're not claiming the entire corp, just a portion of it. They still have offices and such all over what was once Syrrinx Space.

OOC: I blame the maps.IC: We are to receive three systems- system 32 shall be one. If you will not accept our claim on 2-14, we will take another of the Syrrinx worlds which you have not claimed. There will be some among the Syrrinx who wish to join Treanu. The Syrrinx race is not of one mind.As long as we receive one of the Syrrinx worlds, and the scales are evenly balanced, though slightly in your favor, of course, we will be satisfied. Remember, Diemawr, we are your friends, not enemies. We suggested you be given an extra world.OOC: Yeah... Those companies are(through shady business dealings), going to be transferred to government control. :PAnd I'm seeing the Syrrinx as people in a territory which has been taken over. Those people become citizens of the invader's territory. They don't just choose who they want to go with. :P

OOC: 2-18 was part of the orignal Syrrinx claim, yes? Or was it 2-23?I think it's hilarious how the Treanuans failed basic math. They take one of their three from Diemawr space, but suddenly the Diemawr can't claim a different system to compensate for that.IC(Meeting): "We have chosen the planets we wish to claim, and we will not cede more systems to you just because you feel that conquered peoples are your property. If you are not satisfied with the three planets allotted to you - all three of which, we might remind you, border on your territory - then that is not our problem, and we will not make it our problem."OOC: Let's see, 3 Carreg-dur, that's six... 2 full squads of Marwolaeth and one half squad, so that's three more... The Dugrhyfel is one... 10 IP used, 5, 9, 13, 14 total, four available.Construction of two Marwolaeth on Diemwnt-Cwn to fill out the half-squad.Construction of a second Brawd-dur on Diemwnt-Drwg.

OOC: 32 is uncolonized, but it was part of the original Diemawr claim, way back in the first meeting, when all five of us claimed 10 systems. 28 is colonised, but hasn't been updated on the map yet.Original Diemawr Claim: 11, 12, 13, 10, 29, 28, 30, 31, 32, 27System Ceded To Treanuans: 32Proposed Diemawr Claim: 11, 12, 13, 10, 29, 28, 30, 31, 27, 14, 15, 9, 8, 26Bold systems, are, obviously, the inhabited ones.

OOC: Fair? Fair isn't the issue here. The game started fair, now we're free to seize any advantage that comes our way. The Diemawr got lucky. If the Treanuans are that ticked off about it, they can declare war, try their luck against an already-damaged Diemawr fleet.Provide a convincing argument in-game and things might change, but at the monent the Treanuans aren't exactly making the Diemawr want to work with them.

OOC: They're also good at making your neighbors nervous about having you as a neighbor. I doubt the Treanuans want to start yet another war in which the Diemawr have yet another legitimate claim to the lion's share of the enemy's territory.

IC: The Grand Proctor raised a tentacle in a placating guesture.Diemawr, we understand your concern. However, you must realize that your claim of every Syrrinx world is quite unbalanced. We are each entitled to three, or in your case four of their worlds. Five of these are inhabited. We only wish for jurisdiction of one, and that one is a fairly new colony. The Syrrinx are the aggressors in this war, and therefore their territory, as well as the people therein, are subject to the control of another nation.We realize you have already made the generous concession of rescinding your claim over 2-32, and we thank you for that. However, we would still ask for one Syrrinx world in addition to those uninhibited. With your command of Ath, you gain a race's home world- industry already in place and all. If you claim every Syrrinx world, then you greatly unbalance the scales. Let us take one, and the Alizarin do the same as well, and you will still receive Ath and Calinar, and most likely another Syrrinx world should the Alizarin not wish for it.There are many Syrrinx systems that lie dormant and unclaimed. These can be used to make up the rest of what is allotted to you, your fair share. You will still have a larger share than any other nation in this cluster, my friends. Please consider this proposal- it is the fairest way to do this, and still give you the larger share you are owed.OOC: Construction of a colonizer begun.Ground fortifications finished on all worlds except Mahalo and Ka'andro.

IC(Bivali Mun): The Alizarin had been quietly conversing amongst themselves while the Diemawr and Treanuans debated. Finally they broke that silence, their speaker systems once more indicating they were speaking with a single voice."If the issue of planets is a tangled one, then let us simplify it. The original designated Syrrinx space was 23, 24, 25, 26, 15, 16, 9, 8, 7 and 10. Of those, 23, 24 and 25 are closest to Treanuan borders, so that is what they should receive. 7 and 16 are closest to us, so we shall take those along with 26. This leaves 8, 9, 10 and 15 for the Diemawr, which gives them Ath and Calinar like they wanted. Is this satisfactory to everyone?"IC(6-3): The Alizarin Icterine and Diemawr ship appeared in the void of the new sector. The Icterine's sensors reported no thermal, seismic, chemical or electromagnetic anomalies, suggesting this system was uninhabited."It appears we have discovered a new frontier," the Alizarin broadcasted to the Diemawr, "The question now is who do we tell?"
