' Wrote:It specifically says two things, that there is a Cease Fire and that there is an Alliance against Gallia.
That means we dont shoot each other and we work together to fight Gallia.
So you have Gallic ships in Dublin. You have 3 Ronin online and attacking said ships. You say you're allowed there to stop Gallic ships, officers on duty from the BAF say "Nope, you're right by the Essex".
Then you have a diplomatic situation whereby one group is saying one thing, the other the next and, as I said, carnage ensues.
It is my belief that you really need to get the wording of this treaty on record, on paper and that is irrefutable to both sides. Otherwise, you will see a lot of whining in the future about "Oh Zelot said I can do this, it's in the treaty" or "Dab said I could do that, its in the treaty".
All that I can see is being asked, is to actually get it in writing.
' Wrote:Zelot, it seems that you want to adhere to the storyline selectively, when it provides you a maximum degree of freedom of RP. To my humble paranoid mind it seems that you want your group to not play out your main weakness (and at the same time most interesting part of RP) - relying on Bretonian supplies and such. There has been a precedent, I believe (with H-fuel), which fuels bad feelings even more. While trying to prevent being forced into restrictive circumstances not envisioned by the storyline you are in fact forcing Exiles into freedom of <strike>pew-pew</strike> RP not envisioned by the storyline.
Because of this, I am afraid it will turn to shooting each other very soon. Or other hostile actions and word, leading to OORP, forum hate and things we don't want to happen. But then again, that's what my slightly pessimistic-paranoid mind tells.
ah, please stop +1. Either give something constructive or don't post at all. (Not to you Haggis)
As I told, main weakness... is that we are buying supplies for high prices from bretonia corporations... this is how gonna be from the start ye.
Later it will change, I alredy posted why.
Once we will sign treaty there won't be space for your paranoia, we didn't planned to do anything as you think from the start and won't be doing n the future.

This is exactly the kinda crap I expect to come from Bretonia, which is one of the reasons I am skeptical about any treaty they will propose.
Why on earth would there be a diplomatic situation sparked by Ronin ships attacking the GRN in Dublin, thats the freaking role we are supposed to play.
' Wrote:eoJhahiJ, what is the point of leaving a storyline-wise ally white (neutral) if not being able to pew-pew the "ally" when necessary? ;-)
With one of the only two ingame Ronin BS in Leeds next to a BAF station, I'd consider it a problem if Ronins shoot bretonians. You behave when you're in someone elses garden. Bretonia wouldn't have a problem destroying said BS.

It was an example and why both sides knowing exactly what the treaty says - Prevents.
