[X] "Sure, we can talk."

...

So! Who wants to pencil in a colonization action to clean up and repopulate the Forge in the next few turns or so once the radiation goes down. We might as well and see what we can salvage from this colossal mess.

Yes, let's earn some interstellar goodwill by treating Imperial remnants with kid gloves again :)

But these guys aren't Imperial remnants? They're not like Neon who were trying to keep being the Imperium, they're just some guys trying to do their own thing. The QM just said they're just a confederation of mercantile interests united in mutual defense and Fuck Chaos.
 
[X] "Stay the fuck away, assholes."

I see literally zero reason to bargain with these people when the planets in question already want to join with us, the group of intersteller corporations can suck void.
 
So after all that campaigning and cleaning up the Forge we still let the Star-Prophetess alive and apparently have enough support to pull off this ritual bs along with planning on Neon MADing each other. Like goddamn at this point I feel like we should spend an entire action double checking if the bitch is really dealt with this time or else I'm worried she'll just pop up again on one of our worlds or make our new mafia 'friends' implode too.

They also came out of 40k!Balkans, so they are most likely a mafia type organization.

But then again, we are not going to let them expand further so its not like losing that system is going to hurt us or anything.

I mean, the QM did say the whole subsector was basically Space Balkans: Imperial Ganger edition so probably.

But we would be able to block this corridor off if our relations with the Families are amicable enough and they know not to fuck with us. In the meantime we can focus on building up.
 
[X] "Stay the fuck away, assholes."

these are massive fucking assholes that I see no reasonwe should try to engaje in diplo with us esp with no chaos threat(let us not reapt the mistakes of the past) Also I want rethoniuam too for asthetic reasons cause it gets us closer to having the entire sector map be gold which be a first for us.
 
It looks like our Mashan friends won their war on Ghedonion, and now have a bigger fleet then we do. That will make clearing up 621 easier, probably.
In other news it looks like we colonized Valhidem 3 somehow? How did that happen, @HeroCooky?

[X] "Stay the fuck away, assholes."
 
Get the forge world back online again after the radiation dies down. Sad to see we couldn't get it whole. I mean, we lost a whole chunk of industry and probably some half-complete stc's, but oh well, so is Warhammer 40K onwards, my brothers, into the dark, cold night of the stars!

Valhidem was, in fact, abandoned.

[] [General] Colonize (Planet/s)
It is time to bring two more worlds into the fold. Thanks to the Kil'drabi becoming our Kin, we can now categorize Frozen, Ash, and Volcanic Worlds as Habitable instead.
(Gain: Two colonized Worlds.
Habitable Worlds: Ultima Sigritta - Sira (Mesa and Savannah), Silista - Silista X (Temperate Continent), Itani - Grubbub (Ash and Frozen), Gnatiila - Smug (Volcanic and Ash), Valhidem - Valhidem Three (Trench and Mud), Turriamnish's Hope - Hope (Lichen and Moss)

(Ashran Families keep Rethomum and open up Actions to engage in mutually beneficial diplomacy.)

Honestly at this point I'm beginning to lose hope in that there exists the possibility that talking might be possible and that we don't constantly have to wave our stick around ever chance we get but I'll give it one more shot. Please mafia please don't just explode and cause problems for us.

It would be actually pretty nice to have a polity we can talk and trade with. Like how are they doing on Navigators and astropaths? If they didn't go crazy like Neon they shouldn't really have either which means there's a vital niche we can 'sell' to their polity of lending them choirs (though we'll definetly want to do that outsiders psykana action first). They'll know this would slowly increase our influence in their nation but they can't exactly turn down FTL communications and navigators cause it's just too useful.

oh that weird the map last showed turn expicty showed them as not abdabonded
Woltaire said:
the sector map does not show Valhidem Three as having been abandoned so we shouldn't send a colony ship espcally since we are doing the send ships around to all purple spots on the map to get them to join us action.

there is a reason called: We should not enter the space balkans and we should focus on purging chaos sub-sector so most other polities should wait a bit, maybe we could convert them peacefully to Starchild-chadness
 
Wow Macarbe seems to have interesting names for it's planets like Conar can go fuck himself Centeral Prime FUCK OFF MY PLANET'S NAME!!! -Conar ↑Then give my fucking drugs back! Asshole, and Volion's Fall with Great Volian and Better Volion [With Grammar!], and who could forget the Epsax system's shared Sax Primu Majoris Dominus Grandus Titanicus.
 
Hmm, oddly I'm not bellicose now? It's a single system. If they were asking for more than that, sure. But Rethamum doesn't seem so bad. Hmm... not sure. @HeroCooky , what do we know about the system they're trying to hold onto?
 
Okay, okay, I know what to really ask, @HeroCooky . What do the locals of those two systems know about the Asharns or whatever. Like, when they were protesting their actions to maintain central control, what actions were they doing? Etc, etc. Now obviously the Gheist people might be biased, so we should take grains of salt, etc, etc, but we might be able to build up a picture...
