We basically fix whatever the rest of the colony does when it comes to relations to earth. So basically we babysit earth to make sure they don't get stupid and attack us.

I am good at strategy (diplomatic or military), but I cannot speak in front of a decent-sized group of people (read: more than 10).

We are set then. Welcome to P.E.A.C.E.

I probably will have other areas that I will assist at the same time, but I am honored to be in the organization all the same.

I have noticed all of the talk ending at mars, the current destination, but what if we look further.  Specifically, construction of a FTL drive involving magma and elf carcasses to bring us to another star.  Any thoughts?

Do you HAVE a FTL engine? Do you plan to have a cheap design in the next 30 years? I thought not.

Well then, Welcome to PEACE. I would have preffered you be in the military sector, but okay. I will ask ace to add you in to the database.

I'm sorry Corai, I bet you just had some business cards made too.

I would join you, as I am likely considered sympathetic to the earthings, (I would prefer takeover to destruction) but my current duties must take precedence.

Try making PEACE sound more interesting. Offer them cookies or something. Your fighting against a sector with asteroids in the shape of a middle finger. Possibly something about how diplomats get all the earth ladies?

When this all goes to hell and we get our asses kicked, we will be the only Bay12ers NOT to be shot on sight.

All we should need to do is find a wormhole and make it stable.  Bonus if we can change it's state at a whim.

You forget that I we would not be stupid enough to build a way out.  Possibly through the wormhole.

Corai might be right though, what if Toady and Threetoe do not wish to come to mars?  Obviously in that case destruction, or even war would be out of the question.  Then what?

We need options, and some of those options need to be possible without the destruction or hostile takeover of the Earth.  Diplomacy may be the only way!

Simple, we avoid where they live.

Now see, this is why we will have self-destruct function. lure the Terrans in, and BAM, die in a blaze of glory. I for one plan to commit suicide by jumping off my waterfall. ahh, the mist...

Actually, as prime minister, I bet I get arrested for warcrimes.

If he had a serious problem with it, he would have told us. As of right now, its approval by lack of resistance. I do wonder what he thinks of us though...

I am against any form of weapons of mass destruction, on earth or on our territory. If you are all gonna kill yourselves when we get our asses kicked, use a gun. Not a giant nuke that will destroy the solar system.
