Why'd you make me send the tech right before you quit. haha you are a cool guy, have fun man

EDIT: Thank you!

The tears are a tasty drink though

It's funny how some critics seem to forget how important Ivan's role has been in securing the safety of their alliances and bringing down the old hegemony.

I can already do that without the nation ever entering NSO. That make me "interventionist?"

Some of the more irrelevant haters in this thread don't understand that we don't particularly care what they think, I guess.

We may or may not grant membership to applicants under ZI pressure. Such a decision is ours to make, based on pragmatic circumstances. If they are really such terrible people, then we will deal with that. If they are capable players who are unlucky and repressed, then we will profit from that. We will even refrain from aiding these nations until their situations are resolved. It seems like a simple and clear cut policy to me, I do not understand what the griping and false bravado by some are for.

This demonstrates why Lord Ivan is one of the best leaders in CN. A clear risk vs. benefits, pragmatic approach not laughingly masked in cheap guises as lesser leaders so often do. o/ the Sith Order.

A Sith apprentice can be a dangerous thing though.

Rebel Virginia is this worlds moral lexicon, like a prophet fro Admin. Those he sets his angry gaze upon always fall.

Oh, you are quite the proficient alliance leader as it is, especially at making needless enemies. Let's see if you do as well as last time.

No, you haven't. Your "Imperial Assault Alliance" has only existed for three months.

I do not ask to be IAA's leader, I have not the desire nor time for alliance leadership since a pretty lil missile shot me out of the sky. All I ask is the respect due to an Emperor.

This Union, a new semi-hegemony based upon a wartime alliance against a hated enemy, will not last forever. We are in a state of transition.

I never knew that. You never did leave instructions or advice. All I remember is you decided to resign and disappear, you were never even a shadow emperor or advisor, leaving me to deal with two years of Hegemonic !@#$ piled up on your watch. In any case, looking back, I feel they never planned to give peace no matter who was in command... and hell I was the least anti-Order member in the IAA. It's not something I care to bring up, but when I see my name falsely besmirched by fools like Mathias with little leadership ability and no sense of grace, two can play that game. What are you talking about? Absolutely insane? Everything I did was careful calculated, including challenging Mary on the logs, because in that case I was trying to buy more time for our nations in peace mode using what I pressured Mary to promise. Obviously there was an unexpected backlash, I never expected them to fake logs, but hell I was trying to extend our war effort and save some banker nations from EZI. And where do you get the idea the alliance would be EZI'd if I dont get expelled? My expulsion or resignation was never once mentioned by NPO as a condition for peace terms, however to sue for peace terms the way they wanted us to would mean the destruction of our credibility (which I had carefully crafted over the preceding months despite foolish PR actions by other govt. members), along with loss of independence and most likely heavy reparations. My purpose, if the war was to be survived, was for IAA to come out stronger, independent, and in a respected PR position to build a new, truly Palpatine like era from devastating war, under my command. Otherwise what would be the point of a slave like peace? If honorable and solid peace could not be achieved we would go out with a bang and be remembered as heroes. I'm simply appalled at how some people have allowed themselves into being echo chambered into thinking otherwise. This IAA is not the same in spirit nor in legality to the old one. Between us, I was the real Palpatine... the one pushing for govt efficiency, cynical and pragmatic foreign affairs, reduction of democratic bureaucracy, new charters, and a stronger military. Its just in this version Palpatine failed. Perhaps Mathias should not have folded command to me so weakly. Perhaps that is why he hates me now, because he didn't have the balls to take charge when he had the chance? Yes, I do "dare" to question it. The alliance was disbanded, by a vote posted by the previous, legal Emperor. You don't have the authority to recommission the alliance, as you legally surrendered your status as Emperor to Mathias, who then folded to me. If the alliance is to legally reform, it has to be by my word, as I effectively disbanded it, and it has to have the charter I wrote. I am still the legal Emperor of the IAA, if such a thing exists, and this version of the IAA is a farce and a gimmick in which a handful of former officers childishly bitter at their true Emperor decide to play a game of wearing the Emperor's clothes. I have let it slide in the past, but you in your senseless campaign to discredit me within your alliance and without, are pushing my hand. If you want to run around with your charade, fine, but I demand respect as the Emperor Emeritus, if not as the Emperor. Decide now how far you wish to push this.

I don't recall Palpatine running away and disappearing during the first week of fighting, and leaving command to such a "horrible" officer he endorsed in elections.

This is sort of like the Imperial Remnants running around calling themselves the Empire. Cute, but not the same without Palpatine.

Nice to see Nordreich back, I dont think slayer was at all reasonable, and good to see levelheaded mhawk prevail again. Funny to see what the lolcommies will think though.

Hard to say with the current attitude towards the last war and it's principle officer.

That would be due to NPO's policy of EZI.

He does, just under a different name.

If every one of these nations actually did have billion dollar warchest I give NPO huge props.

This was pretty awesome. Even the song speaks truth lol. Everyone is evil in their own way!

Your knowledge about that and other things is merely propaganda fed to you by certain elements of the Imperial Remnants that have taken up the name of the Imperial Colony. Perhaps that is why they call you "TheListener." @Darth Andrew: Yes it is correct, Junkalunka wrote the final version of the charter of the IAA in April, while he was Imperial Regent. Has that been wiped from the history books like it was from the forums? Charter announcement Unfortunately some of the less mature elements in the government at the time demanded a rather embarrassing "lulz" passage right under the preamble. However it was an acceptable compromise so that our government structure could be improved and our immediate FA issues, also caused by said immature government leaders, could be resolved without bloodshed. It seems my contributions to sane government policy have been somewhat glossed over of late.
