Cancer Planeta explores the great unknown. They discover an energy rich world perfect for manufacturing (potential manufacturing world)

Count of the Voids explores the great unknown. They discover a frozen world perfect for special ops training (potential recruitment world)

Blacksand Industries send 2 fleets to explore the galaxy. They discover a mineral rich world (potential mining world) with a moon perfectly positioned to process the minerals (potential manufacturing world.)

Deutsche Bank buys 5 ore for 80 M₣ as the only entrant.

The Emperor still wishes to encourage colonization by minor houses

Provide exclusive rights to a star chart of every planet type (5 in total) for 20 prestige

In other news, the merchant league wants to organize their own feast. For tax reasons they will pay in specie.

Provide at least 3 food for 3 machines

Deutsche Bank receives their new fleet and now really does name it Angela Merkel.

ACTACTACT
Angela Merkel ventures into the great unknown.

Deutsche Bank also submits a request for clarification to the league of merchants. According to the rules a league request is granted to the lowest bidder; is this an exception to the rule?

Oh. Yes, in this case it will be the highest bidder (in terms of food.) The main take away was that League requests are auctions.

[Quarque]

ACTACTACT
Deutsche Bank offers a bid of 4 food to fullfill the league request.

You don't need to do that in this case:

any interaction that requires GMs attention needs to be marked with the words "ACTACTACT". This applies to:

• fulfilling missions
• exploration
• colonization
• war declaration

this does not apply to:

• trade (whether with the league or another player)
• making/signing a contract
• running planet production

If in doubt, better mark it, and I will correct you.

Also, why not have Desponia produce some food? There are literally no downsides to that (you can run production on as many worlds as you want/have.)

Also, looking to trade 1 ore for 1 food and 5 MF.

[Quarque]

You could buy machines from me.

We're interested. Offer: 3 ore + 50MF for 3 machines? If you prefer to be paid with more raw materials and less cash or vice versa, let us know.

Capitalists, unite!

The latest actions of Chia Interstellar and Cancer Planeta demonstrate that these two companies have formed an unbreakable cartel.

In a market ruled by healthy egoism, the Rainbow League could only have been fulfilled after long and painful negotiations. Blacksand Industries aka Euchrejack would have had an opportunity to offer up their mining planet chart. Count of the Voids aka Rockeater would have had an opportunity to offer up a recruitment planet chart. All of these companies would have engaged in an auction to fight over prestige.

Instead, Chia Interstellar used the bargaining power granted by the combined assets of two companies to split up 16 prestige points between them.

This is not as innocent as it may seem. If capitalists do nothing these two companies will continue to dominate competition. In the end, they will replace the emperor and rule us all in a communist state. This threatens the very foundations of our existence as a bank.

Therefore, we encourage other companies to put up a fight and cooperate in the name of selfishness. If a counter-cartel does take shape in the form of a solid binding agreement, Deutsche Bank will fund the effort with at least 200MF and possibly more, depending on the terms.

Being German, we do pledge to avoid a direct military confrontation. If that happens we might all end up nuked.
