TO: Long Di Guo, Trans-Planetary Unified Coalition of Viginti Venti, Iyanden
FROM: Commonwealth of Interstellar Domains
Greetings and well met, fellow survivors. We are the Commonwealth; our intentions are peaceful. Our capitol is Sol and we give notice that the Imperial Republic is gone. We are interested in establishing cordial relations. We have been informed of your existence by the Mobius Roverius, and are interested in obtaining stellar data you might have acquired since the Event. We are willing to reciprocate with our compiled data should you be so inclined.
No and no, same general rule as above.If I this turn research Protocol Recognition, can my ships move across two (friendly/neutral) systems in my orders for this turn?
If I this turn research Active Shipyards, can the ships that I commission this turn be moved this turn?
This sounds like some sort of generic trade treaty, is that what you're after? E.g.You can trade and pay Production to one another. However, trade will increase the Production of both of two factions which are trading.
Yes and yes. You can buy and sell tech for Production; factions in contact with gate speed great enough to go back and forth in one turn will automatically get trade boosts unless either group chooses to boycott the other. (Merchants usually don't wait for government treaties before they begin trading.)Thanks a lot for that Eric, it was all as expected. One thing I didn't quite understand though, regarding trade:
This sounds like some sort of generic trade treaty, is that what you're after? E.g.
"Oy there Clones, want to start trading with me?"
"Sure, why not."
=> Both factions get a PP boost.
If this is indeed what you mean, then is there still a more specific kind of trade that involves PP, as in
"Oy there Clones, how much would you give me for my brand new ideas on Unobtainium Hulls?"
"Well, how about 50PP, that enough?"
To Iyanden (Eldar):
Greetings. We seek to establish peaceful and productive relations with your people. We believe that one of the first steps that must be taken to ensure that is that we can come to a consensus on the future of the Kornephoros system. We suggest a joint sphere of influence, where we each retain control over the Gate to our respective existing spheres of influence, and we split control of the system's resources and volume appropriately.

While we do this for the Greater Good we also propose a possible exchange of maps to perhaps alleviate the need for each other's scouts in each other's galactic territory.
