SLCB has our full support at this time. We will be protecting them just as we normally do under our treaty. Should SLCB be lumped with SLF in any military response, you can be expecting a fight be brought to your doorstep.

Heh, I remember. I think JB attacked GOP for that.

But I don't think anyone's made the mention of attacking SLCB, or I may be mistaken. But I like to see the DoS's being made, it usually signals a war or something very, very dumb.
Either way, I like Rafa and Vanguard.

I imagine it matters little to Vanguard what BAPS thinks of its allies. For that matter, BAPS casting a stone of judgment is rather rich if I may say so myself.

There's nothing really wrong with declaring support for one's allies. Some would consider a public reaffirmation of support rather endearing in fact.

Em surely the fact that you didn't cancel your treaty....which you didn't......is a pretty effective way of letting people know where you stand? or are Vanguard known to be so fickle when it comes to honouring treaties, that one must issue these edicts whenever a treaty partner comes under scrutiny?

Indeed sir, my point being if your alliance has such an honourable reputation, why do you feel the need to waste the good people of this forums time pointing out the obvious.............we know you are treatied to SLCB, and until you tell us otherwise, your treaty is set in stone, at least thats the way my alliance works.........maybe your bonds are so fragile you must make edicts to reaffirm commitments.....who knows.

Considering slf was a decent Portion of slcb, including some gov't members, and seeing as I can't, rather won't take the time and effort to reach everybody involved individually through my pjone's Internet, I felt it prudent and efficient to make this announcement. You're welcome baps.
