Deadshot Posted May 20, 2010 Report Share Posted May 20, 2010 [quote name='AirMe' date='20 May 2010 - 06:27 PM' timestamp='1274398035' post='2305980'] As you stated, they had a year and a half to build relations. Every time MK was under terms, our diplos were out attempting to make new friends. A treaty with Ronin requires a metric ton more effort than that. Ask Gondor how long it took to get an OMP done. [/quote] You hit the nail on the head and I am happy to say that while some have been more tense than others, we have been making friends in some surprising places. It will be interesting to see what lies ahead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] All those alliances are aligned to the side that were against Pacifica. OSA is part of the Checkmate with Genesis and Ronin. Genesis is allied to Polaris and Ronin is allied to MK. =LOST= is part of CnG.. do I need to go more into detail? Come on now. I'm sure NPO is making some sort of attempt to become friends with others on "that side" that may not be Ronin in particular. Edit: Gondor comment, way off. Sorry.

Want a treaty? Also please change your name back to Invicta, it's kind of hard to remember the new name. [/quote] I'm referring to them as The Alliance Formerly Known As Invicta, or TAFKA Invicta.

Reagan1 Posted May 20, 2010 Report Share Posted May 20, 2010 This just in...the announcement concerning the pact between "Invicta" and New Pacific Order is WIN. I've had the opportunity to meet some good people in both alliances. I support this with my seal of approval....

[/quote] Well, the Karma Coalition WAS led after all by Archon, the sovereign of MK.. I'm still hopin' for the PIAT to come back It should be no surprise that that first alliances that NPO signs with after terms were its closest friends / allies. As for new 'friends'? NSO is new. When they entered terms in August, the NPO and NSO weren't on speaking terms, diplomats weren't really allowed in eachothers' embassies. That's something they worked for. Even if it was an obvious match. edit: Almost forgot. Congrats to our mutual friends and allies in NPO and Invicta for marrying each other too!

NSO/NPO only really got on speaking terms a month or two after Karma, and even that mostly involved a lot of distrust from both governments.
