Kirov VS Kata PBEM

[Kirov]

Sorry, it didn't happen. I wanted to do it first and only after that accept your proposal (so it's more fair). But when I started to talk with her, I completely forgot I can't ask for calling off if the both of us are at war... On the top of that, she is seething and demands my techs. So I went away with nothing and it looked as if she was about to turn down my next phone call. I checked and sure enough, she 'politely declined'.

I can try in several turns, but if I accept your offer, the first thing she'll demand will be attacking you... oh bummer.

But I'd like to point out one thing. This is Sparta!! Where's your spirit? 

I didn't know about that bug.

We can do the trade for Bio for DocLoy then, all i negotiated was that you call and ask, not that you obtain peace 100%.

I believe if you go into the diplomacy text files you can find a spot where the text for goodwill and friendship and ''name your price'' are in reversed spots, as i read several times on poly, but im not so technical that i know the details myself.

I already killed enough believing scouts to satisfy my spirit demands 

[Kirov]

let me think about it, I was half-joking there. CN for me is only for deny purposes, it's of little use for me now (it makes my very very green units into very green ones). OTOH, don't you want to go for it yourself?

[Kataphraktoi]

The cliche answer is i want all the projects, including CN.

[Kirov]

Well, I hate to break it to you, but it may be tough.

Anyhow, we can trade, but without the treaty. I won't be able to help you with Miriam, she calls me pagan and hates me already, if we sign peace, the next thing she demands will be war again.

[Kataphraktoi]

It would be tough to build them all, yes.  Im just joking around here obviously. I know alot of people love the CN, MCC, and CDF as sparta but im not exactly sold on non-economic SPs early. Maybe i am missing the train here.

Im already at peace with Miriam since last turn, so you dont need to be concerned about that.

[Kirov]

Well... let's stay at vendetta after all, I took one reputation hit already, I don't want to risk one more. And Miriam loves her some sneak attacks. But apart from that, Bio for D:L is fine.

The PTS is poised for completion.

[Kataphraktoi]

Very nice.

Deal is sent accepted.

[Kirov]

Pleasure doing business with you. Now I need to decide if I want that CN. Quite a poor SP in my opinion.

BTW, there's a common misconception about the Spartan bonus. +2 MORALE doesn't, in fact, give you + 2 Morale. It's right there on the SE screen - you have +1 Morale (+2 on defense). Yeah, I know it's not good news. Yet another drawback of Santi, as if she was too strong already.

[Kataphraktoi]

Yup. Maniac wrote an article about moral sometime back, didnt he?

Did i put the wrong MY on this sav? Watch out for confusion

[Kirov]

Yeah, he did. It's just I noticed several times that people playing Sparta think they get to get hardened units, when in fact they're disciplined.

the turn is 54 now.
