Sorry, TD... for the time being, we do have a confed with WE. Put it down into the probably negotiations, if those ever happen =(

For some reason every time I read or hear Muhammad Ali's phrase "Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee." My mind translates it to "Float like a butterfly, sting like a beaver."
 Ummm...

/me turns and walks away before the hammer of Luna strikes me.

I'm not sure what part Luna's Hammer plays in this but oh well.


Anyways, good choice for a negotiator. Although, I do think it would be far more efficient if each alliance had their respective leaders or diplomats talk to H?. An alliance leader or representative will know what is in their respective alliance's agenda which will allow the alliance to broker the best deal possible.




(Stating the obvious here)

FYI - Part of our conditions will be that the alliances in The Coalition never have to hear the words "Consone this" or "Consone that" ever again.
KP, with all due respect, does this prohibit VIC from making post-war Confeds with ANY alliance currently or previously part of Consone?

It would be nice, if that proves right...

All I got until now, was the reluctance of talking to Consone as an entity, even when we proposed Hath and Jasche as spokesmen. Reason as I understood it, was that H? wanted Consone to be in pieces...

There was pretty little info on that, as Vicx and Roads seemed to be not allowed to talk about terms, but cancelled all diplomatics...
OK, I think there is some misunderstanding here.

As a matter of war strategy, divide and conquer has obviously been the Coalition strategy.  That is simply for the purpose of attaining military defeat of each Consone alliance.

So, let me ask - is future NAP/Confed status of VIC, WE, AA, EE, etc the real "sticking point" here?

Exodusing some cities, destruction of some cities, payment of gold and goods - these are all do-able for VIC?

Wanted to say: Thanks for the info, TD. Would have sounded nice.

...Ehm...

Well, now it must be: Many Thanks KP for clarification of the suspicions I always had Confused (Won't go into details here...)

TD, I think you would have won me for surrender, but to KP....  NEVER!!

1 month productivity sounds nice for a start (I saw that somewhere above...ah yes, by KP), and added up for whole Consone would result in a huge load of resources/money/etc...
But leave us as an entity... that's the point of the discussion...


No - This thread is about you trying to pretend to the illy community that you're trying to talk in order to garner sympathy and maybe a few more supporters - when actually you're ignoring everything we've said.

Consone as an entity is a failure.   It can't "Protect the welfare of members" and it ended up being the bully it said it was trying to protect against by each alliance making everything into a "Consone Matter" as a way of trying to intimidate people when they didn't respond in the way that alliance wanted. In fact you guys are still trying to make everything into a "Consone matter" even when explicitly told (many times) that it will not work.

So you're desperately trying to hold on to the failed husk of an ideal which had no chance from the beginning due primarily to the personalities of the people pulling the strings at the top of each alliance. In addition you laid on the spin and BS so thickly to your members that you have no way to admit that it failed and move on without a massive loss of face.

So right now your pride is going to make you steam your "unsinkable" Consone ship right onto our iceberg. The sad part is that you're also willing to sacrifice all your members to preserve that pride rather than swallow it and convince them it's in the best interest to surrender. So you're gonna take them down with you - aside from the ones smart enough to leave some possessions behind and jump into a life boat to abandon ship.

FYI - Part of our conditions will be that the alliances in The Coalition never have to hear the words "Consone this" or "Consone that" ever again.
