RONIN-SchmBund Conflict Resolved in Truce!
DATELINE: Terra Praeconor, 7 July 2010--RONIN has made honorable gestures to end the RONIN-SchmBund conflict. On the 5th of July RONIN initiated peace talks with SchmBund. Major General Nelson's character had been called into question by RONIN leadership and he was removed from the alliance due to directly disobeying the alliance leadership. It was this action by RONIN that played a key role in SchmBund's acceptance of the peace agreement.
After lengthy discussion of the issues at hand, Der Schmalkaldischer Bund proposed a truce on the 6th of July. RONIN, also discussed amongst themselves and agreed to the terms set forth but made sure to wisely add a few terms to the truce. Today, the 7th of July, RONIN and SchmBund mutually agreed upon the terms of the truce and have now declared it to be in effect for the duration set forth.
This truce comes in the form of a Non-Aggression Pact with a set and definite expiration date. The hope is to foster peace between the two alliances by giving time for heads to cool. Once the truce expires, it is hoped that all activity will return to normal with typical probing as well as raids on members who fail to Fleet and Resource Save.
RONIN Nukes Bundischer; A Second Aggression Begins!
DATELINE: Terra Praeconor, 30 June 2010--RONIN has officially re-initiated hostile actions at approximately 02:00:00 Zulu, five members of The Blades of Ronin alliance and three lone individuals launched nukes from 13 separate planets at a single prominent Bund member, Constantine chan. The three loners involved made sure to already be in the process of entering d-mode at the time so as to avoid the inevitably impending retaliations of Der Schmalkaldischer Bund!
Bundischers are hardly impressed at the barrage of 210 Interplanetary Ballistic Missiles (IPBMs). The attack is viewed at about the same level as throwing rocks at a nest of killer bees. It shall almost certainly prove to be a foolhardy move for RONIN. After all, if it takes 210 IPBMs to take out the defenses of a single Bundischer, then RONIN is going to need a lot more missiles. The total estimated resource cost of all the missiles lost by the aggressors comes to a combined figure of: 2,625,000 Ore, 525,000 Crystal, 2,100,000 Hydrogen. Surely they could have put those resources to a better use.
In conclusion, it is worth noting that missiles do not destroy ships. Therefore, Constantine chan is just as much of a threat to the aggressors as he was before. The only differences are that he now has specific targets to rain down his fiery wrath upon and he also now has the full approval and assistance of Der Schmalkaldischer Bund to add to his arsenal of power."
RONIN-SchmBund Conflict Ends in Victory!
DATELINE: Gustavus Adolphus, 20 June 2010--What began as nothing more than a raid upon a player that neglected to FRS, escalated into a conflict which is now over. Major General Nelson, a minor and insignificant member of The Blades of Ronin, petulantly threatened a Bundischer who conducted a simple and typical raid upon Nelson's idling fleet and available resource pool. Nelson, stooping to extortion, began an aggressive nuke building campaign. Bundischers, prefering not to report this to Blue Frog, took matters into their own hands, neutralizing Nelson. Stated one Bundischer, "Turning someone into Blue Frog is like crying to mama." Nelson, however, had no such scruples. Complaining to his own leadership and other members of his alliance, Nelson conveniently failed to mention his own inappropriate conduct and misrepresented bona fide Bund efforts to achieve reasonable settlement of the matter. Claims that Bund members ignored a cease fire failed to mention that Nelson violated a promise not to build more silos. In the end, elements of RONIN sympathetic with Nelson failed to gain ground against Bund members, while Bund forces successfully pushed Nelson into (d). In the final analysis, the RONIN-Bund Conflict has proved a flash in the pan. Oberhauptmann des Bundes Polycarp Athanasius Riegel, Theocrat of the Augustana Synod, stated, "After consultation with Kriegsführer Chan, Vizekriegsführer Robber-Bob, Die Häuptmanner, and Kreigskabinet, I hereby formally declare the RONIN-Bund Conflict ended in a Bund victory."
