Popular Post DaveyJ Posted May 22, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted May 22, 2022 Two days after the colony of Solaris was joined by a boarding party of Russian Spetsnaz, formally assimilating into The Cosmonauts, a brutal war broke out in all* corners of the known galaxy. The newly dubbed Cosmonauts were busy practicing Russian, seizing the means of production, and getting to know their new crewmates when a ship carrying the flag of Aurora, yet another space colony, appeared in the distance. Knowing that their protector, The Wei, was in a state of war with Aurora, the group elected to pass at a distance so as to not provoke the foreign vessel. Just as they were passing the ship, the Aurorians turned and fired. Nancho, leader of The Cosmonauts, spoke with his crewmates: “Unusual that they are engaging a protectorate. Send an emissary to the Aurorians and determine if this was a mistake.” After all, this had happened before with ships from Cataclysm and they were quick to acknowledge the mistake. The lead diplomat, Alice Kryze, returned hours later with assurances that the Aurorians would cease fire. Most likely a mistake, the crew had determined. As the crew returned to their innocent discussion regarding executing landlords, their ship again came under fire. The Aurorians had made it clear that this was no mistake and they intended to continue their provocative fire upon the innocent ships of The Cosmonauts. Nancho looked around the table at his trusty team of government and advisors and said “If they want war, we'll give it to them. Arm the nuclear armaments and mobilize the boarding parties.” Davey, second-in-command to the ship, nods and replies “May the Raccoon Pope have mercy for my enemies because I won't” and began to prepare The Cosmonauts for a war against the aggressive Aurorians. TL;DR - The Cosmonauts recognize hostilities only with Aurora/Serpentis.

Popular Post Jacob Knox Posted May 23, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted May 23, 2022 That's an interesting way to say "we're declaring war because of two stray wars, one of which offered peace and our guy is the one who broke the offer with further attack," but ok. Further Explanation The first stray war from Aurora was this one. https://politicsandwar.com/nation/war/timeline/war=1319911 We realized the mistake and talked it out. Our guy offered peace. Then yours does this: 05/22/2022 02:09 am Shah Akmil of United Akmil Emirates detonated a nuclear weapon in the nation of Vincipela and eliminated 25 Resistance. The attack destroyed 1,850.00 infrastructure in the city of 👑 Fort Travers and 2 improvements So that war is still ongoing, because your member nuked someone offering peace after we talked it out. Second stray war was this one (note thats it's also against the member who thought it would be a bright idea to nuke in the face of peace). https://politicsandwar.com/nation/war/timeline/war=1322509 Instead of coming to us about it (assuming your member would've even peaced smh), you post an "RoH" with flimsy reasoning and painting yourself as the victim. Idk and idc what happened with the Cata wars, but one look at your war logs shows that our side was more than amicable about it. Closing Remarks Basically, we see this as a separate declaration of war (not recognition of hostilities) from the current conflict with Backroom and therefore reserve full right to have our allies support us (since you've seemingly disagreed in that regard). You are not the victim here except of your own ineptitude. You've dug your grave and now we'll make sure you sleep in it. Note I'm legally obligated to state that since I am not FA gov nor leadership, the views put forth in my statements are not necessarily indicative of the views of Clock as a whole. Thank you. [Also I'm glad to see that Orbis is getting a bit more politics and drama as of late per the request of many.] 9 Quote Federation of Knox Enlightened of Chaos, Event Horizon QA Team and API Team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crap. Well looks like I better start buying that Vital Defense Project. Only $100,000,000 I'll just subtract it from my bank! AAAAND THERE'S NO MONEY IN HERE!!! Argh Argh Argh Argh! Oh well, I'd rather be a tax slave than be nuked to hell and back. Wait, SEIZING THE MEANS OF PRODUCTION?! I'm having an existential crisis, the commies or the weebs?

Ronald Wilson Reagan Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 (edited) Got some context, no clue what happened behind the scenes but seriously, I think nukes go too far. Can I just declare neutrality of some sort in this conflict, I condemn the usage of Nuclear Weapons in a conflict which appears to be accidental, and assuming that Knox ain't lying, or my brain is working properly, this conflict was indeed accidental. I myself am not exactly prepared for involvement within a Global War, given that my economy is now in tatters thanks to the mandates put on me to mobilize to 5/5/5/3 under less-than-optimal infrastructure. I'm running a deficit on food, and now I run the risk of reverting 2 months or so of stagnated progress in under a week. I could make some concessions, I just don't want to have my entire nation be destroyed.

Being dragged in and joining the war on their own accord are two very different things. Refer to Jacobs post above on how it went down.
