Although, if we have an ongoing close diplomatic relationship with Turkey, we may want to consider joining their association (I think this has been mentioned before). The association has been mentioned, not joining the mention

-----<Blockade Runners>-----
----<[Crisis Card 29/100]>----

At New Inlet, which was a favorite entrance, the blockade-runners would frequently get in by hugging the shore, slipping by the endmost vessel of the blockading line. Even on a clear night a properly prepared craft was invisible against the land, and the roar of the surf drowned the noise of her screw or paddles.


The YnBar blockade and sanctions will make travel to YnBar difficult for an extended amount of time.

Decisions: (choose 1)
Ignore, (you lose Zaza’s lottery winnings and Valens diamonds)

Pilot the Python, cloak and attempt to run the blockade. (-8 fuel round trip)

Pilot a Ynbar transport and attempt to gain permission to land. (-8 fuel round trip)

Ynbar will not be able to collect taxes til the blockade is lifted

##Pulse Can I take this as confirmation that Ynbar will send its own ship to collect our taxes after the blockade is lifted?

**Incoming trade offer from Sudanese Colony (Hirolgii System 2 fuel distance)**

They want: Mark IV Ion Cannon
They offer: Convert Scraps to Cyborgs (L1), and Ionization (L1)

##Proposal 6.1.0 Accept the Sudanese offer.
##Vote YES on Proposal 6.1.0

Regardless, we need strong foreign relations. @President Pakhwa - how have your diplomatic negotiations been going? I ask that you consider appointing a dedicated Secretary of State if you do not have the time to reach out to our allies and neighbors.

I've haven't actively reached out to any countries beyond responding to what they present us. I'm willing to appoint a Secretary of State who expressly opposes the recent independence movement that has sprung up just because Ynbar is requesting us to pay the taxes that we knew we would have to pay. In particular, I would be willing to appoint Pastor Naia (Kench) or Eachen (Zaza) if either one wants the position.

Flicke:

UNECP : UNITED NATIONS (EVACUATED COLONY PARLIAMENT)
was like minded factions who left earth. Its disbanded 13 times since its creation. Not a stable governing body.

Sounds like a shady organization.

The YnBar blockade and sanctions will make travel to YnBar difficult for an extended amount of time.

Ignore, (you lose Zaza’s lottery winnings and Valens diamonds)

Pilot the Python, cloak and attempt to run the blockade. (-8 fuel round trip)

Pilot a Ynbar transport and attempt to gain permission to land. (-8 fuel round trip)

##Pulse Why would we lose Zaza's lottery winnings and Valen's diamonds? Can't we just wait until the blockade ends to collect the lottery winnings?

[yavuzovic]

##vote yes on 6.1.0
If we sell our technology, would we lose it?

[leon1122]

##vote yes on 6.1.0
If we sell our technology, would we lose it?

I'm pretty sure we don't.

[PRINCE WILLIAM]

I believe that selling it means we let them have the knowledge not that we sell the actual items.

[brainbomb]

GM NOTE: I am sick with flu. I had a high fever last night and all my dreams were about wisps lol. That was some crazy ass dreams

[PRINCE WILLIAM]

Ι hope you feel better now.
I guess the dreams gave you one or two good ideas for the next troubles this colony is to have soon!

[Kench]

Good evening Councillors

I am reasonably encouraged by the state of affairs of our small colony and, in particular, our ability to respond to the crises in front of us. I continue to pray for our future, but if it is the Will of the Almighty Lordfather, I am confident that we will thrive!

In particular, I would be willing to appoint Pastor Naia (Kench) or Eachen (Zaza) if either one wants the position.

I have ever been a peaceful person, and in favour of building bridges before barriers. If it is the will of the Council, I will gladly take this duty upon myself, to reach out to those around us and see what relationships can be fostered.

For my own peace of mind, however, I will make it an active proposal, on which I will not vote myself, so that it is clear that we all feel I am considered adequately prepared to take on the task.

##Proposal 6.2.1 Appoint Councillor Naia as Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, with a duty:

• to make a regular assessment of the state of our Colony's international relationships

• to work to foster strong relationships with our allies abroad

• to have responsibility for making recommendations to the Council in all matters pertaining to international affairs (this does not confer any greater weight to Councillor Naia's voting on such matters)

• to be the Council's representative, where necessary, to supra-national bodies including the UNECP

**Incoming trade offer from Sudanese Colony (Hirolgii System 2 fuel distance)**

They want: Mark IV Ion Cannon
They offer: Convert Scraps to Cyborgs (L1), and Ionization (L1)

It is not yet my official responsibility to take this on, but before we agree to this trade I would strongly recommend that we find out what we can about this Colony. I may be the only one, but honestly, I don't know shit about the Sudan.

Ahem... In other words, I am not keen to be handing away weapons tech (or any tech, really) to just anyone who comes knocking. We should ensure that we understand precisely who these people are and make an assessment based on what we think the likely use of this technology will be. I am certain that Councillors will agree with me that they would not wish to discover that we were ultimately responsible for fuelling violence elsewhere in the Galaxy. I am not actively voting against this proposal... yet. But I feel we should learn what we can before we make any rash decisions.

##Pulse - what information can you give us about the Sudanese Colony and its history?

----------<News>--------
-Firma has not returned.

What does this mean? Perhaps I am forgetting something, but I had understood we would try and learn a little more about the ship before Firma went to explore?

The YnBar blockade and sanctions will make travel to YnBar difficult for an extended amount of time.

Decisions: (choose 1)
Ignore, (you lose Zaza’s lottery winnings and Valens diamonds)

Pilot the Python, cloak and attempt to run the blockade. (-8 fuel round trip)

Pilot a Ynbar transport and attempt to gain permission to land. (-8 fuel round trip)

I do not feel that we can afford to lose either the winnings or the diamonds. If Councillor Jaromir is open to it (and perhaps Councillor Hana also, in order to increase our away mission odds), I would recommend the Python attempt to run the blockade. Public opinion is clearly not currently with YnBar, so I think any attempt to gain permission is likely to be futile.

But perhaps our intrepid away team might consider spending some time, while they are back on YnBar, to discover to what extent the claims against YnBar are founded, so that we can better assess the future of our relationship with them.

Traxler: Our Crisis next phase is not bad (falls below 50%)

I'm not sure what we do with this information, but it is heartening to know!

[thamrick]

I fully support Councilor Naia for Secretary of State.

##VOTE Yes - Proposal 6.2.1

I also agree with the assessment that much more clarification about who the Sudanese are and what their desire for the Mark IV Cannon says about their intentions. Additionally, it needs to be clarified whether we will lose the Mark IV technology ourselves.

I will ##VOTE No - Proposal 6.1.0 until those questions have been answered.

##Proposal 6.0.1 - Ignore the blockage (lose Zaza’s lottery winnings and Valens diamonds).

##Proposal 6.0.2 - Pilot the Python, cloak and attempt to run the blockade. (-8 fuel round trip)

##Proposal 6.0.3 - Pilot a Ynbar transport and attempt to gain permission to land. (-8 fuel round trip)

My inclination is also to attempt to run the blockade.

[Kench]

My thanks to Councillor Lazlo for his support.

##Vote Yea Proposal 6.0.2

[thamrick]

How would you guys feel about appointing me as the resource overseer? I would be responsible for ensuring that all of our structures are producing resources and would determine which choices they would produce. This would save making proposals for each resource. Instead, I would provide 1 proposal with my choices. I can list my choices near the beginning of each phase and if anyone has strong opinions about choosing something else, we can discuss before I officially submit a proposal. For example, for this phase:

Marsh Turbine produces +1 Credit
Wind Generator produces +1 Credit
Harvesters collect +3 Steel, +6 Fuel, +3% air quality
Hangars produce +2 Space Fighters, +2 Harvesters

I favored credits over fuel from the turbine/generator since they are our only consistent way of making credits. We are looking at trips to Ynbar so fuel is still important so dedicating the majority of the harvesters to fuel while still adding some valuable steel and cleansing a little more air.

I can supplement with my advanced harvester, and modify based on what our building choices are.

[PRINCE WILLIAM]

Do we have superior arms than the Mark IV Cannons? If we don't there is no way we should share that knowledge. It would be suicidal. If we have a superior armament technology then we can sell depending on their intentions.

## Vote Yes to proposal 6.2.1

[dargorygel]

I have a visitor, arriving soon.
He claims to have some information that will help us understand the background to some of our particular troubles.

I'll let the counselors know of anything important that we might gain.

[Kench]

##Proposal 6.2.2 Appoint Councillor Lazlo as Chancellor of the Exchequer and Paymaster General, with a duty:

• to make a regular assessment of the state of our Colony's economic affairs

• to work to ensure that our resource generation remains as efficient as possible, providing the goods of greatest need (immediate or future) to the Colony

• to have responsibility for making recommendations to the Council in all matters pertaining to economic affairs and resource generation (this does not confer any greater weight to Councillor Lazlo's voting on such matters)

You have my support, Councillor.
