[font=Trebuchet Ms]Several days ago or more, [color=#33CC00]I've had a meeting with several distinguished Outcasts. It was suppose to be nothing but a friendly gathering. [color=#33CC00]Arsenio Zavala and Dennis Jameson of 101st were people who led these negotiations. We were suppose to discuss a purchase of some of their weapons but that never really happened. Instead they gave me an silly ultimatum to stop my hostilities against Bretonia's good guys, who attacked me and my Thuggies in the first place. Imagine that. For those who are not aware, and I'm sure the most of you are, Outcasts made a under-the-table deal with Bretonia on behalf of their mutual benefits, whatever the hell they benefit from one another. Isn't it funny? Bad guys and good guys working together disregarding their moral codes? So these Outcasts... They attacked us when the negotiations were finalised. We were outnumbered and we lost but it was fun nevertheless.
The really fun part is when people think they have advantage, when they think they're winning. I planted that feeling into 101st guys who came there to trick me. It felt good, and now other innocent Outcasts, with whom I wanted nothing but friendly relations, will pay for 101st' mistake.
In the next two days, you're going to learn a little bit about yourselves by becoming a part of my little Social Experiment. Through the ancient magic of nuclear fussion, I'm ready right now to nuke two planets from orbit; planet Malta and one of the planets on territory of Bretonia. I still haven't decided which planet on Bretonian's soil I'd like to watch burn the most. BUT my intentions is to make things a little more interesting than that.
There's no need for all of those people to die. That would be a waste. So I've left you both a little game of choise to play, just for me to watch and enjoy. The fleets of both of sides, that of Outcasts and Bretonia Armed Forces, have to meet in battle in Leeds, Sector 4C, on 9th of January at 16.00 hours gmt, fighting against each other with no less than twelve ships on each side, including no less than two capital love-boats on each side as well. And the rest is simple; the side that wins will save itself from being nuked.
I was thinking... While Outcasts and Bret's Armed Forces fight each other to avoid mass destruction of their planets, why should they have all the fun? There are numerous possibilities for other parties to have fun here as well; will Sairs use this opportunity to invade Alpha while Outcasts are fighting far, far away from home? And will Kusari noble-geeks do the same, while Baffeys are trying to prevent the nuclear apocalypse of one of their planets? And there are few other parties which could use this battle to their advantage as well; IMG, Colonial Remnants and Dragons who, to my knowledge, feel betrayed by former dealing with Outcasts... Endless possibilities. Too many factors to worry about. This could be even more fun than I thought!
So who's it going to be; Bretonian's finest noble tea-addicts wearing short pants?
Or... The sweet-on-cardi, edgy double-crossing Outcasts of 101st?
Will both sides, by endangering their deal and future relations, risk their friendship and fight each other to save hundreds of thousands of lives or will they do me a favor of becoming so guilty and let me nuke two planets? Two planets? Oh, my... Who will win? Will they even fight for my personal enjoyment? Is their selfish need to spite me more important than the lives of innocent civilians? So many question marks.
Oops, I almost forgot; the side that wins in Leeds immediately has to set course to Omega 52. Just go there and bomb Zhukovsky Station. You'll probably have to fight Commie-gays' army, thus it's safe to assume that there will be a lot of fun there for as well. In the end, If the side that wins don't provide me a lot, I repeat, a lot of proofs of battle taking place in Leeds and bombs falling on Red's lair, I'll detonate 100 megaton nuke despite the fact that you won.
You want order in Sirius? You think that you can play with me and get away with it? What will it take for you people to understand? It's really ridiculous. You... You have all these rules and you think they'll save you. Ha-ha, ha-ha, he-ha, haa. Let's see if your morals will save you now. Fight for your lives and the lives of your families or whoever. Spill your blood for me, kill each other, massacre the people with whom you made that silly two-faced deal. Rip apart each other for me while... While what?
While I sit back and watch the world go away in flames.

[Re: Yawn.]
I thought you'd might want to know that there are shield generators placed all over our fair planet as well as energy absorption towers. The reasons these wonderful devices are in place around Malta is because the Corsairs have attempted what you are trying to do now several times over, and quite frankly I got bored of it.
Your plan will not work, your pathetic weapons only serve to put a smile on our collective faces for it will be nothing but a fancy fireworks display.
Ask any Outcast after you've wasted your munitions and they'll tell you the exact same thing; Malta was not harmed.
We refuse. Consider this us calling your bluff. The universe is not as black and white, or rather, purple and green, as you see it.

[font=System]***INCOMING ENCRYPTED TRANSMISSION*** Comm ID -Don Picaroon Diablo, Capo Crimini, Shadow Outcast Brigade Target ID -The Joker Subject:Possible mutual agreement & offer for you
Transmission Begins:
Well I see your still about & in good health.
I'll for go the pleasantries as they are a waste of breath & blowing smoke up ones.. well you know the rest, anyway.
I have a proposal for you my demented amici. Seeing you can't get much headway with the current Outcast Government & it's representatives, And being the leader of a Non government affiliated family in the Outcast Nation, I may be of service to you & help you get what your needing, provided some agreements are met & agreed to.
Seems your wanting a few more of the finely produced Outcast weaponry, Well, I have stock piles upon stock piles of these. I would be willing to let a few go to you & your group of miscreants for a few favors & conditions. They are as follows:
* You will not stop or detain ANY ship loaded with Cardamine
* You will provide protection to BLS ships loaded with Cardamine or slaves that enter your ZOI
* You will not harass, provoke nor interfere with any of our allies ( LR, VR, MM, LH, & HF ) operations , you may assist them if they approve.
* You will cease all hostilities towards Bretonia officials, as it affects our relations with them as well & hinders our Cardamine trafficing
* You use the weaponry responsibly against our common foes, Namely LPI, LN, LSF, Corsairs, Kusari Lawfuls & anyone interfering with Cardamine trafficking or Slave traffic.
If you can agree to these terms, we would be willing to provide you with the weaponry you seek. Cross us, & they won't find your remains, Ever...

Another attempt at pissing people off? How cute.
Look, if anyone's going to bomb planets in Bretonia, it's not going to be you. Stop feeling self important and go play in a sandbox somewhere. If you do succeed in getting hold of a bomb that large, maybe I'll remove it from you, as children shouldn't play with dangerous toys.

Sir,
If our Planetary shields are capable of withstanding several major Kusari battleship bombardment attempts against Leeds, do you really think that your small gunship and band of thugs will be able to break through them sufficiently to launch a nuclear missile against our planet's surface? I also am less than confident about your understanding of nuclear technology. You mention "nuclear fussion" - do you mean "fission" or "fusion"? Either way, I cannot imagine that you have gotten hold of more than a couple of devices - what do you plan to do, try attacking our planetary shields with them and watching them explode in orbit, or try attacking the planetary surfaces and watching your missiles burn up in the atmosphere?
Just in case you think you can smuggle nukes onto our planetary surfaces, I have already increased security checks at all spaceports to the point where I doubt such an obvious criminal as yourself carrying a shipload of nuclear bombs would be very likely to get through. Just in case though, we have BAF patrols from all 3 Planetary Fleets constantly orbiting the planets on the watch for you, scanning all ships trying to dock for nuclear devices onboard and equipt with flak cannons to shoot down any nuclear missiles. Unless, of course, your threat to "nuke" one of our planets was referring to one of the many desolate and uninhabitable planets such as Jersey or Wight, in which case godspeed to you and I will most heartily enjoy watching the explosions from my ship in orbit.
As for the outcasts, I have no idea what "deals" you may be referring to - we merely are not in the habit of shooting each other just for the sake of it, and for that reason I politely decline your offer that we should waste our fleets butchering one another rather needlessly in Leeds.
By the way, I've asked MI5 to trace this transmission and dispatch a couple of Mandalorians to your location, you look like you could do with a little fun to releive the frustration that you are clearly experiencing. Do enjoy fighting for your life - I've changed your status on our wanted list to dead rather than dead or alive, so I wouldn't worry about languishing in our prison cells. Good day to you sir and I do advise you take some medication for your obviously growing insanity. Keep smiling...
Cheerio!

I see that you're not a tricky dude like these... [color=#33CC00]rats. Let me remind you that I already offered similar deal before; we did several raids on Gamma, defended Alpha on two occasions and despite it, shipment of Outcasts weapons and tridente were withdrawn later by Dennis the Menace. All we have now is two out of five tridentes and all of the krakens were given back 3, 4 weeks ago. But that sign of my good will didn't stop these 101steys to lure me into a trap. From the early beginning, several of your people are trying to sabotage my relations with Outcasts, and they succeeded. So you're telling me now that I should trust you while other back-stabbers around you are trying to find a way to back-stab me again? I gave my word to Mollys who are keeping theirs and treat us with respect. Only an idiot would accept your offer now.
As for others... You're underestimating me like others before you. I like when people do that. The pleasure will be all mine.
