So boys and girls, it's time to discuss some more. 1. Research avenues. We can choose from Planetary Construction 4, Politics 3, Planetary Defense 1, or Starship Construction 2. 2. Build orders. We have a Colony Ship set to be completed in 2 turns, and Galantia is still up for our taking. 3. What tactics should the fleet focus on? 4. Extras? slayernz LordofSyn

So, for these discussions, my opinions are as follows:
1. I say Politics 3, then Planetary 4.
2. I say we build an Exchange and then a Mine. When we colonize Galantia, we need to subsidize a Factory, then a Hab unit. We need to see what Mineral roll we get.
For colonization claims, Baza City is the closest Red Giant, with Nasrah Outpost being much further away. I say we claim both, but wait until friendly colonies are nearby to actually colonize Nasrah.
3. I say we focus on a mix of Fighters, Torpedo Cruisers, Boarding Fighters and Carriers as support rather than front line ships.

Chancellor Aurelius,
You took the words from my brain. I concur with these plans. I have nothing further to add.

Honorable delegates from the Javat Clan. There are discussions in the Thulun Prime debate that you might be interested in. We are working to plot out the finalization of our Alliance, and your input would be invaluable on the matter. Presently we are discussing how best to divide the Northern Sector, preferably between our two factions so that we may utilize their remote locale to create a resource and research rich area. Please feel free to stop by, read what we are discussing and weigh in as you see fit.
Respectfully, En1gma Ambassador for the Great House Thulun

Grrrr. Thulun seeks to try our patience. Are they really laying clain, uncontested to:Restfallen, Ogvidissio, Jahant 6, Kaflenge
Has the Spice and Vudka really gone to their heads, or am I looking at that wrong?

Respectfully, LordofSyn, if you were to read the post directly above your own, you would see the invitation to discuss this very matter. Because the SS is likely going to demand- and should very well get- the majority of the outer rim of the sector. This leaves the northern-most sector up for our two clans. We are not laying claim, merely offering a plan to divide them evenly and fairly. As you can see, every system we would prefer to colonize has lesser or equal value for us, due to your obvious need for high mineral and quality systems. Once again, House Thulun is acting in what we see to be the best plan of action for the entirety of the quadrant, not only for ourselves. Earnestly yours, En1gma

Brutus Aurelius, LordofSyn I am unable to respond in a timely manner today - but please (if you have a chance), review what En1gma and Thulun have to say in good faith. That is, understand that Javat must have planets to build up the treasury, but we don't necessarily need frontier worlds and instead worlds with high resources. Steel Song should always have the rim worlds, with Thulun helping with rapid construction. Our place is to support the alliance, and there is much honor in being able to finance a war effort. En1gma, I will try and review Thulun's proposal today, but unfortunately cannot promise it. Brutus Aurelius if you need to put forth Javat's vote for the next moves of the Consensus, please do so. Your vote has my backing.

Thank you for the vote of confidence Councilor slayernz . You and Councilor LordofSyn seem to be in agreement with my proposed plans, so should no other issues pop up, I shall post them to the Consensus thread. I also took the liberty of negotiating with Thulun to secure us the most Mineral rich worlds. They wanted Baza City, but I asked them to allow us to have it, as it would be most useful to us. So in total, we have three systems set for our colonization: Galantia (voted to be renamed Aurelius Prime), Baza City, and Nasrah Outpost.

Any possibly of giving Galantia to us in exchange for Rift Trade World and Outer Reach? They are comparable or superior in quality, and their minerals average 11 as well. Unless there is any special reason for Javat to have Galantia I'm forgetting?

In ghee grand scheme of things, galantia is away from the frontier, meaning javat would be able to build up mines and keep funding ships even if we are besieged.

Perhaps we could requisition a full map of the quadrant from Templar Command ( johndramey) Due to the fact that we cannot all see this map for ourselves, it is difficult for us to get a grasp on the big picture, and this is leading to strife within our factions. If we had this map, we could have a gathering, calling the minds of the Assembly so that we might discuss this openly and with civility. We must have a unified plan. Agreed?

En1gma, There is no way we can get a full map without broad reconnaissance, and that would result in alerting the aliens to our presence. We must all persevere with what knowledge we have at hand. Work together, and we have a strong chance.

Ummmm forgive me, slayernz- this Vudka is strong today. I meant to say the sector of known space we currently occupy. So that we may see the layout of the systems we already have knowledge of.

I apologize, it still escapes me why Javat would prefer Galantia over both the high-quality and inner systems of Outer Reach and Rift Trade World...

All of Javat, I didn't actually have time to look at the extended map until now ... and have to admit that Galantia is more suited for Steel Song. The planets that seem better suited to Javat are #10 Baza City #5 Nasrah Outpost #4 Kaflenge #3 Outer Reach They are high resource, reasonable quality, and are well within the core. En1gma and xdesperado, Kaflenge is a planet that you mentioned you might like, but since our growth isn't rapid, we will still have a couple of turns to negotiate on Kaflenge. squee, you are absolutely right- I was not speaking from a position of knowledge. For me, Javat shouldn't lay claim to Galantia. My fellow Javatians should agree with my comments above though. FYI, I will be traveling in a couple of days time, for a week. I will not be able to spend too much time in the forum so will rely heavily on the sound judgement of Brutus Aurelius and LordofSynThe Cat
