As the Jawas have used the past tense for the present turn's actions, we feel all the more comfortable doing the same.
I request we hold our discussion until the Resulution of the turn

That is an option, but be advised it will have an impact. We do not wish to spurn the valiant actions of the Jawas; should negotiations continue after the turn, they will likely concern your ability to reinhabit Ord Radama. Which would not be off the table.
I was under the impression that orders have all ready been sent and we are waiting for him to tell us what happened no?

The question is whether I get asked about invading (which has happened) or whether the invasion is automatic (which has also happened.)
In either case, @LTD can @clontroper5 and I organize an Imperium surrender on the surface?
If I can return your ground forces alive I intend to do so as a gesture of goodwill. Dead Wookiee forces may cloud that intention, though. Are there cards you would put on the table now?
I will process shortly - waiting for nap time.
Turn 13 Hyper Pings at: L, K, E, O, dsDEF, dsKL, G, dsMN, dsC.
Planet Lagoona is blockaded by the Jawa.
Planet Kalee is blockaded by the Jawa.
Planet Eithos is blockaded by the Imperium Galaxis.
Planet Ord Radama is blockaded by the Wookies - invasion pending.
I am awaiting further instruction on one matter.
@clontroper5 if telling your forces to stand down means they live, will you give the order?

Depends what your offering

To not immediately kill them with a lesser number of Wookiee casualties.
Independant negotiations can follow, but this is a favor.
Edited by The JabbawookieUnderstand what ever you do, I will fight to the very last breath for those planets, if peace is what you want, I advice you to leave the planet in my possession. If you fail to do so there will be no peace with me until it is returned to my possession

I do want peace, and have made proposals in good faith... but we are winning this war, and are prepared to continue. If you are not prepared to make any concessions to end a war you started, or to offer an alternative form of reparations, we shall simply do our utmost to grind you beneath our paw.
The invasion has begun. Do not pursue this course of action; let us find a better way.

There were no ships in orbit then? Most interesting.
@GhostofNobodyInParticular We have a humble request regarding the cruiser; would you be willing to allow us to pick it up on Ion? We would adhere to the standard payment schedule regardless of delays and compensate you for any additional fuel. ETA would be turn 15.

I think you are not good at math my friend, also you speak of Peace talks!
Bah, you have no desire for peace! I gave you may terms and you have vailated them, your blood will pay for that. And you think I started this war?
You have made it clear from the very first words you spoke you intended to make me your Enemy, you cannot deny this just because I am no Coward and decided to strike First!
@Matt3412if you assist me to regain my territory I will agree to your terms...
Until then the Imperium will fight to the very last breath to defeat the Treacherous wookies

We did eventually initiate a questionable tone, it is granted. Which was met by an immediate declaration of war and a bounty on our servicewookiees, with the eventual slaughter of one of our colonies. Absolute terms are a luxury you are now unable to afford; despite enjoying the upper hand, we have made multiple offers from different angles, and are prepared to make more. You have thus far rejected each in turn, responded to a gift of six Stormtrooper companies with threats, and made your intentions to continue this war clear.
@Matt3412 the Wookiee Nation is content with the current situation, and would make no further advances unless it is to suffer further Imperium attacks. However, the Imperium shows no inclination to negotiate. We are open to many diplomatic and military scenarios, but the simple concession of captured territory is out of the question. How do the Jawas wish to proceed?

You act innocent and yet your people Genicide Innocents for your fleeting Fashion industry? If you sought peace you would accept my terms they are not unreasonable.
You may think you have the Upper hand but I assure you, without the Jawas Intervention you do not.
Edited by clontroper5
Ord Radama has been occupied. I think 4 Wookie Regiments are lost in the attack (I will clarify if this is incorrect).
Turn 14 is now live.

If your regime saw past its pride they would accept that wars have consequences for the devastation they cause. Dealing creatively with those consequences falls to you, though we have attempted to shoulder some of the task and will continue to do so given encouragement. Your terms must bend as ours can, or they will simply be ignored. Were our roles reversed I would like to believe the Imperium would be so understanding.
18 minutes ago, clontroper5 said: You may think you have the Upper hand but I assure you, without the Jawas Intervention you do not.
The Imperium has four planets to our eight, two of which were evidently without naval defenses before the Jawas arrived. We have forces in both of your sectors, heavy garrisons and battle fleets where we need them and our second cruiser in the mail. If you wish to push this point, perhaps time will tell, but suffice it to say: the Wookiee Nation has yet to fear the Imperium Galaxis.

It is a risky proposition. We are unsure. Fuel costs would amount to 2 credits, as they would either way given your failure to meet the cruiser in ds Cerullia. Is there any issue with us jumping the cruiser to Cerullia?
...HoloCall...
...Indeed I have tracked this war quite meticulously, The Imperium though slowly losing ground has Fleet capacity of close to double yours remaining...
...though their current economic outlook is not good, you [wookies] should be wary if they turn the tide in the next few turns...
...This war will be a long one if it continues...
...This is why I have dispatched my fleets, many will die needlessly if this continues...

An interesting and useful piece of information, though the Wookiees still have a battle plan to minimize loss of life while winning the war. What we wish to know is: how shall the Jawas act? Do they still view negotiations as the most promising current path? Will they instead take up arms against the Imperium, or hold their positions and observe, or withdraw to avoid risking losses of their own? Whatever your plan is, the Wookiees intend to cooperate... so long as it does not mean accepting present Imperium terms, naturally.
...We Shall hold our positions and observe as a neutral party for the Time Being...
@The Jabbawookie what is your response to our query? Is it feasible to deliver the cruiser to Cerullia?
12 minutes ago, Matt3412 said:...We Shall hold our positions and observe as a neutral party for the Time Being...
Understood.
@clontroper5 for this turn, no Wookiee assault shall be ordered upon any of your fleets or homeworlds. We leave it to you to strike the next blow, though we hold some hope that you will not. Give up or edit your demands. Work with us and contribute to finding a solution. Or we will ultimately respond, and the war will rage on.
1 minute ago, GhostofNobodyInParticular said:@The Jabbawookie what is your response to our query? Is it feasible to deliver the cruiser to Cerullia?
Our single concern is a 243 point blockade of Eithos. Should they catch the fleet with a hold fire order over Cerullia, the consequences would be disastrous. I will generate a sufficient number of jump points that the Imperium will waste their time going to each. Do not tell me which you have gone to or be alarmed if you don’t encounter us; we will simply meet over the next turn or two. Does this sound acceptable?
