Friend, it seems you might be hemmed in. Feel free to travel through out space en route to committing acts of Evil.
Speaking of which, shall we set our eyes ahead on further conquests?
I'd also be open to discussing planet swaps in future to improve your territorial holdings.

I have found an older broadcast in our archives where you do lay claim to the G system, however we were not aware of anyone exploring in that direction. [Wookies growling in background] Yes, yes I know. [Wookies still growling in background].
Are those your forces already on the ground in G1? We would very much hate for something to happen to them by mistake, and as my associates tell me, running scans from space on the topography is Perfectly Legal
Perfectly legal only with the express permission of the owners, whose survey craft you destroyed.
As of yet they are not, but an expeditionary force has been dispatched to remedy that situation, and I don't want them passing through you by mistake.

Just a reminder of our claims.
We also have planet Renoir under our control.

Understood. We will begin our expansion, without interfering with your planets. As for swaps, we will let you know.

Proprietary Limited wish to remind our neighbours the Merry Crew that apostrophes are not necessary to pluralisation.
This unnecessary punctuation usage symbolises your inefficient use of limited resources.
Perhaps you would like to engage one of our analysts to optimise your operations? Our terms are very reasonable.

Can the GNIPians really object to the scan of a planet they do not yet control?
Ownership is best demonstrated through the actual presence of ground forces.
Proprietary Limited is happy to mediate any conflict as an impartial arbiter. For a fee, of course.

Turn 6 hyperpings at B1, B2, O, dsP, N2, W, dsC, X1, C1, D2, F1, F2 and G1.
A GNIPian fleet engages a Wookiee expeditionary force over G1. 226 pts GNIPian (A) vs 184 pts Wookiee (D) equals a 10% attacker's advantage, or -1.
A 5 is rolled and converted into a 4. Attacker takes 20% casualties, defender 50%.
A GNIPian Pelta C is scarred. The Wookiees lose a Pelta C, and another is scarred.
Although the Wookiees are obliged to retreat and G1 is under blockade, the battle itself will one day serve as inspiration for the holovid hit Raiders of the Lost Arq .
Turn 7 is now live; orders are due in 48 hours.

Additionally: 2 missions will be available at a time. "Perfectly Legal" is still active.
It's Not a Trap:
Initiate 2 or more naval battles where you enjoy a 40% or greater advantage.
Dras: 1/2 battles
Edit: Destroying Malarian Brood forces does not count toward this objective.

@Matt3412 Merry Crew -
The GNIPians have taken our suggestion and have arranged to blockade a Wookie World. Will you now consider a mutual blockade of L2 and L1 in order to further our mutual interests?
Be friends, you English fools, be friends: we have
French quarrels enow, if you could tell how to reckon.

A GNIPian bombardment reduces credit production on G1 by 1.

Given that GNIPian blood was spilled on the planet's surface several turns ago, we feel we have claim enough to the planet.
Beside this, however, the last transmission of our doomed survey vessel confirmed reports of our deceased ground forces, and we have come to the conclusion that G1 is in fact our ancestral GNIPia, long though lost to the mists of time and space.
We apologize for the loss of you fleet - we did recommend you leave. We do not want a conflict with the wookies, we simply want what is ours. I imagine the GF currently on the ground are now yours? If you surrender them we will provide you with them and an extra one as compensation for your troubles.

P is the system at the very bottom, without a visible planet. At least we cannot see the planet, but the system is there.

Yeah that's my assumption too.
I don't mind if someone is traveling to Q, as long as they stay away from my systems.
Ah! That being the case, those are the exploratory forces of the Proprietary Limited, enroute to Q.
We will not enter R.
