Aloha Embassy

Here's what I wrote back to him / them:

Umm, I was not aware that someone from this team told you to get peace with Epsilon. If that's really the case, then I apologize for holding your team to the prior agreement. All I can say is that the alleged communication to you was never made known to any of the other Piffles. Honestly, this is the first I've heard about it! Please supply a copy of all the correspondence you have relating to this - I'm going to feel really badly if had been miscommunicating over these past few weeks!

-Peter the Piffle
 
Repsonse from Robboo:

pete.. it was in a PM from you. Hence my confusion. So now I expect some form of restitution since you raped me with that trade.


he also sent me a PM:

HEy pete.. you sent this to me... read the last line.
Hi Rob,

On the contrary, I'd say that our cooperation is even more important now! You can't bail the plan to defend your core - rather, you still need to preserve a capability to hit their coast. Otherwise there's no point at all in nuking them. We gifted you guys just about every unit we had. I think there are about 10 units scattered around our cities, and that's about it.

As for the timing, it's in about 6 or 7 turns. I'm going to play the save in about 24 hours, so I'll send you another update.

It would really help us if you were able to give us as much detail as possible about their invasion: how many units, where, can you still see their navy, etc. Screenshots are probably the easiest way to do this.

Or are you considering suing for peace? Any techs that we have traded between us are off-limits in a peace deal, obviously.

Best,
Peter

:gripe: So it seems that my questioning his future plans was interpreted as our blessing peace between them :rolleyes: I guess I should have been clearer :wallbash:

Proposed response, pending any surprised when we open the save:
Hi Robboo,
Now I see why you thought you had our blessing for getting peace. Re-reading the letter, I obviously didn't make Piffle's position clear enough.
 
Message in from Aloha:
HEy guys... can we help you at all. I am preparing to build a city north of your west most city on that narrow strip. I have moved troops there. Settler should be there soonish.

How long can you guys last against epsilon?


I'll drum up a response after I play the save.... which should be in a few hours.
 
Reply sent with the save:

If you want to help, we could really use our units back :)
We won't be able to last very long once Epsilon decides to really attack us. As it is, they only have one tank around. But I bet they're about to unload another 4 next turn.

There's a transport of yours with some units on it. If you want to give that to us, you must take care not to allow epsilon to attack the units. Therefore you'll need to drive the transport close to our coast, then unload the units manually. That will use up all their movement, so you may not be able to gift them to us this turn. If that's the case, you can gift them to us the following turn. We would rather have alive units next turn, than dead units this turn!

In short, we'll take any units you can muster!!

Thanks,
Peter the Piffle

We'll see what happens!

Are you sure you dont smell an a-t-t-a-c-k for 2nd place?
 
The problem is, I don't know if we're going to be able to muster another Nuke :(

I'm opening the save now - I will post some screenshots shortly.
 
This came in yesterday from Aloha:

If you guys would have perhaps replied to this We woudlnt be where we are.

You made the threat and I delivered on my promise to make you pay. Heres is what I said...And perhaps you dont know me well enough... but treats will not get you any wheres with me. I am sitting on the turn till you respond.

Now it ends.

What's there to say? I don't see a need to respond.
 
Sent with the save:

Enjoy!

...and just so we're straight here, I never let apparent hard feelings carry from one game to another

-Pete :)

Replied to what? :confused: Did we ignore a message that he sent or something?

Unless Epsilon sits on the vote as part of some agreement with Aloha ... :dunno:

:scared: Gosh I hope not! That would be pretty vindictive of them... but I suppose nuking a former ally is also pretty cruel ;)

Yes and no. He had offered us a couple of trades - in each we give Rocketry, in each he only offered something inconsequential, like a luxury or a health resource. I declined the trades in the game. I suppose that's what he's on about. But I'm not positive - after all, he can be all over the place sometimes :lol:
 
Worked exactly as I planned...

I was trying to give you guys confusion with alternating positive and negative messages to delay you figuring out my plan to attack you guys. AND to further the time frame for you guys getting nukes. I never had any intention of attacking Epsilon. I wanted you guys to use your nukes and then my ships which you thought were going to them would be going to you. The sue for peace line in peters email gave me an out AFTER I had already proposed the trade to Epsilon.

IF I would have gotten nukes, you would have received a few. MY plan fell apart slightly when Epsilon attacked me. You have been my target since I took over.
 
:rotfl:

I'm glad we were able to play the patsy! :lol:

We were, indeed becoming extremely frustrated, as you can see. Good job keeping it up!
