Did i accidentally a war?

[Terenos]

*Chuckles from the sidelines* So it begins. As the prophecy foretold.

[Kashyyk]

Spoiler: Imperial Response to the Corax (click to show/hide)

I'll make sure to investigate the envoy's return journey. However, whilst the Corax fail to uphold their end of the arrangement, I will not be able to justify spending Imperial assets on anti-piracy measures. If the tax is paid, it will show a degree of good faith and solidarity with the Empire that will allow me to confirm the necessary action.

We appreciate your Imperial spirit and good citizenship. Once my associates have drafted a mutual beneficial arrangement with your staff, I will have it presented for us both to sign.

OOC: Simple monetary compensation is something you can push for, as well as the presence/absence of an imperial garrison. Trade with the Empire is also an option. Once you have decided what you wish your lawyers to negotiate for, update your turn post. I'll do some behind-the-scenes-stuff and return with a few final options at the end of the turn. You will then have to pick from one of those or reject the lot.

If that is definitely what you want to do, then I would also suggest cancelling the auto-payment of tax and spending the money on an army.

For those of you that have an envoy to talk to, he is right there in front of you, so feel free to converse as much as you like with me before coming to a decision about what is to be done. If you don't have an envoy to deal with, then lucky you

Did i accidentally a war?

What did you do @_@
Also could you support me in taking Owl N? I want to trade stuff to you D:<

Also @Kashyyk: Maybe replacing the colors on the map legend with numbers, and using those numbers on the minimap trade origins are better. The color coding is on the legends (Like, I get a yellowgreen 7), but the map numbers remain a stable color that is visible no matter what.

Also shouldn't my caravan have hit Nirur already? Turn 9 has it just adjacent to them. I've had no notification of its progress or if it hit them.

Also where's my response ;~;

I haven't read anything in anyone else's spoilers the 'also where's my response ;~;' was to Kashyyk.
Although I think I should words words to the envoy since he's right there. But my mind is busy being both z.z and x.x
Because feelings.

But if you want me to click your IC post, I think you made an edit. That at least I can see

Otherwise, I think everyone blatantly needs a cash injection, Kashyyk Unless there are those with, like, 3k+ money out there. Busy being rich \o/ But I doubt it. Butbut if there are any, I wish y'all well D:

I'll look into it, see if that works

Also shouldn't my caravan have hit Nirur already? Turn 9 has it just adjacent to them. I've had no notification of its progress or if it hit them.

It takes a full turn for the caravan to process, so you'll get it next turn.

Also where's my response ;~;

I think I missed it, what are you expecting a response regarding?

The response to the Imperial tax person. I agreed, but responded to emphasize diplomatic talks and relations, mentioning that we've a way of talking here that gets the goods. Otherwise, we also ask for minor subsidies (or at least one lump sum rather than subsidies per turn) and hinted the mention of threats that our organization is handling to ensure the Empire doesn't have to worry about. The subsidy would in turn aid us in stabilizing and improving our garrisons, so that no Imperial boots should even be sent to our lands to uphold their agreement.

[Kashyyk]

Ahh.. I'm sorry! I don't know how I noticed PaPaj's post but not yours >.<

Spoiler: Imperial Response to the Alliance (click to show/hide)

Talarys spoke first to her counselor, who was better versed in legal laws of the Empire than her. These were her words in private, conveying her intent.
"You can depend on the Alliance to heed your call, we have the knowledge to assure and ensure that the word is spread with other organizations we know of or are in our range and do not know of. We will focus primarily on exchange of words and our own jargon that they are more used to, but request--if possible in your graces--some subsidy for building a standing army for purposes of military aid. Merely a minor sum is welcome, as we have reports of dangers the Empire faced in the past that this organization is specialized in (hence the payments, you got that right? no misunderstandings?) and such would be used to bolster our forces.
Err, please don't write how many um's I said. Thanks. Just tell them that, thank you."

[Also pay 100 to our lawyers since I bloody don't have trade with Nirur yet :I just to ensure that my words get legalized better]

Asking for money as compensation is definitely something you can push for. Opening up Trade is also an option, as well as the presence (or absence) of an imperial garrison in your lands. Decide on what you want to push for, and at the end of the round I'll do some rolls for it and offer you a few options.

Talarys made it noted that:
> She was asking money for compensation, with the best social skills she could at the time.
> She overtly made it a point to open up trade. (Having in the back of her mind to make a diplomat hero to oversee this)
> She wanted the absence of an imperial garrison in our lands, but probably one (their choice, we're ok with none) for the trade routes connecting us and other imperial-buddy people.
> She promised she would handle helping out with diplomacying taxes from her neighbors or others that they haven't specified but she assumes may have not paid.
> She mentions the uncivilized folks in areas of Empire domain, and mentions that her organization will also be in charge of uniting them too. {Them neutrals nearby}, and uses this point to help her earlier point of military money aid.
> However, if need be, imperial garrisons can station themselves in our lands free of toll and other maintenance tax. They are to keep to themselves and we shall provide upkeep only if they are on the warpath. [basically deny any additional info other than them placing armies on our lands; we provide upkeep, but no additional info {Note: Does not stop them from sending spy heroes that I've no tech-idea about with them so yeah :V}]
> But seriously emphasize our need of money if ever we're going to militarily help them. In all honesty, we are better off diplomacying with those organizations--and we'll promise that by getting a diplomat ready.

((It's tempting to ask for imperial garrisons. Knowing exactly where the back-stabbable garrisons are, what's in them, and keeping them separated, that's pretty valuable, especially with a tech or two to increase capture chances. Even more so for those of us who have big borders with The Empire. I think I prefer trying for lower taxes so I'll be stronger when the Great War comes, and hoping the lower taxes translates into fewer imperial troops.))

I'll assume all my words are being coonveyed by trusted folks anyway so all of you know my intents.

Why I'm not going for Imperial Garrisons...is because I'll have to pay upkeep is alongside that strikethrough assumption, that it further entrenches their hold on us and their SIGHT into what we do. As far as I know, all the tax collectors can do is just fluffle by observation and can even be fooled--the Empire doesn't even support any of us who did monster hunting as far as I know by my own observations (on only myself x3), otherwise I can't see any benefit for myself other than a defense legion...but with much more grasp on their part. :/
And I can't withstand that unless I become an Imperial pet. Because I love you all more.
Really

I've edited my response though--anyone can view it.

[Nirur Torir]

True, but they'll probably send better auditors as our lands are worth more anyway.
Why would they send their own garrisons to support aggressive monster hunting? I'm not surprised they didn't help.

QED in orange, for all the Empire did for 10 turns to us.
But yeah >_> That was the foremost idea I had in mind. Go monster hunting--get trophy--send back to Empire. PROOF. Profit?

As long as they get tax, they won't be fluffled to ask for more anyway, so yeah. I'll be sending in letters to all my trade buddies.

[Taricus]

Oh hey more free money standing in front of me

Also, it seems my units in N Terret haven't been updated, no healing or hero recruitment at all which should be fixed. (Naming rights to you because shit that Badass garrison commander has earned the right to pick his own name.

Also HOLY SHIT the stats on wyverns. I pity the fool who has to fight more than one of those.
