It has not, but should have...  you say that they are making weapons with yellow dirt? That concerns us, as that may be what they hope to build. It's effects can last decades or centuries if care is not taken.

In reply to Cyril Zotmund (msg # 889):

"This war will likely have repercussions that last much longer if anyone wins it. Well except us, they all want to make the whole [you find it hard to translate this word] world them like. You them use stop regardless need."

And just how would you have us do that? We do not want to fight.  It does sound wholly demented that everyone wants their view and no other.

In reply to Cyril Zotmund (msg # 891):

There is a pause.

"Idea none. Perhaps us remove to other place?"

That is doable... but it will take a while... months, to be able to accomplish. Can you hold out that long?

Hopefully Months means roughly what it does to us...

In reply to Cyril Zotmund (msg # 893):

"Moths? Oh, long time. We have held out for many orbits, we can hopefully hold out for more..."

The planet had a 400 earth day orbit of it's sun, as it is smaller and has less gravitational pull.

Very well, about how many people will we need to move?

In reply to Cyril Zotmund (msg # 895):

"well, 35 million in our group, plus 25 million and 20 million in our two allies. How big ship?"

I see... a big ship carries perhaps 2500 ... not sure we have found a good answer.

In reply to Cyril Zotmund (msg # 897):

"Oh. If you can make 1,000 of them, that would be 32 trips, or so. Perhaps you can teach us how to make them?"

That may be possible... I will explore that and someone will get back with you.

In reply to Cyril Zotmund (msg # 899):

"Can you give us anything to help us survive until then? Or something to make it easier for you to find us when you return?"

Cyril looks at the other Officers ... I can't think of anything ... Duke, You have any ideas? Anybody else have any ideas?

In reply to Cyril Zotmund (msg # 901):

"History has shown us that any technology given usually just makes war more bloody. I got no idea how to end it...we still can't end wars with all our tech..."

In reply to Raymond 'Duke' Vurhund (msg # 902):

Turning off the microphone, Natalie suggests

"Maybe Technology is not what the need. Maybe they need a common enemy. What would be really cool is a Vilani battlecruiser telling them all to submit or die...heh, I never thought I would see the day I WANTED to see an angry Deraanasa or Erasharshi!"

Cyril laughs and shakes his head . You are probably quite right Natalie... but I am just short one manned Vilani battle cruiser ...  But we can tell them they are coming... and send it in every language.  They need to form a world council with each group getting one vote, regardless of size or power ... and it plans how to prepare to deal with an arrogant enemy that is many TLs in front of them.

In reply to Cyril Zotmund (msg # 904):

"That would probably involve giving them evidence of a direct and impending threat, though. How would you plan to do that, without the ship?"

A fine Question...  I suppose we could do a low level fast flight through the place...  give everyone a scare.

In reply to Cyril Zotmund (msg # 906):

There is currently a significant sea battle just initiating with nearly 25 battleships and 50 cruisers from three sides, plus two aircraft carriers. This probably represents about 1/3 of the global fleets, and three factions can be seen there, though the majority are from Factions 1 and 2. The carriers belong to faction 3.

and we have been talking with Faction?  4 wasn't it?


I'm not interested in fighting anyone... but a 2500 MPH pass over head should leave a huge sonic boom and let them know they have a new problem.  Then we can tell each government that they are likely to be taken over by a superior technological race that will resolve all their leadership issues by dictating to all of them... in the new advanced races favor.

In reply to Cyril Zotmund (msg # 908):

You have been talking to faction 5.

The low pass over the battlefield does briefly get their attention, but the battle continues...for now.

Having seen you, several others inform you, in their own languages, that they do not have any leadership issues, with some telling you to mind your own business but most asking who you are.

Those those telling us to mind our own business... Tell the Vilani that when they conquer you.
To the others... a passing ship, telling you what is coming, sooner or later, work together or hang separately. we will return soon as we can with help for those working together.


And we are off...

In reply to Cyril Zotmund (msg # 910):

You move to the jump point and depart. From the communications, you have stirred a hornets nest, with questions such as "Who are the Vilani." and "Who are you really?"

Binary System 2231, 3 Gas Giants, 1 Planet, 4 Moons,
   8,000 m dia, 60% surface water, Standard Atmosphere, habitable. Again, humans seem to be living here, but much lower tech (TL4). Pop: 20 Mil

System 2133, 3 Gas Giants, 2 Planet, 6 Moons,
   5,000 m dia, 10% surface water, Very Thin Atmosphere.

System 2234, 4 Gas Giants, 10 Moons,

System 2434, 3 Gas Giants, 8 Moons,
   5,000 m dia, 40% surface water, Thin Atmosphere, habitable.

Before returning via the mapped system 2633, then on to Faith. On your return, you are told about the fall of Nusku and the Armistice.

Cyril swears... then passes along what he has found, especially the TL 6 world at war.  He has found multiple livable worlds, we outside current Vilani control.

We have the ship looked over so we don't pass up a yard visit when available...

In reply to Cyril Zotmund (msg # 912):

The ship seems in reasonable condition, but there is no yard here. You are told that a lot of Terrans have moved into Ceti-Command, which has officially been ceded to the Terrans now.
