Attack on Pharos Nova (Perun) by Donkey

[mmupatton]

Well, I agree. But that's easy since my number of colony ships have been zero since the War of The Solstice

A bit late, but here are the last important (for storage & retrieval) reports on Donkey's ral-estate:

There were loads of other attackreports & colonizationattempts in between and before this, I raided him like the plague before colonization was finally successful, but you get the picture I'm sure.

Launched this attack before he lost his final colony, I think we should stop now as I believe others have suggested.

The final attack report from me is:

This may have been a bit unfortunate, but it cannot be helped. At the very least it's the mother of all demoralization ;D

As for compensation, I thought about this: why don't we, as Morkins, send him right now a compensation of stone only ? IIf we all send some, we can turn this into a sour joke, because while he could no doubt find use for the stone -in principle- in the early stages of the game he won't have the storage facility to d much with it and it doesn't cost us a thing, ha, ha.

How about that ? I'll put this on the messageboard as well. Yes, the more I think about it.... ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

Donkey was involved, before the E~L vs. Morkin war, in Gibbon's plans to divide up our colonies and provoking us into a war to facilitate that plan. As such Donkey actively assisted the leadership of E~L by military actions. At that time Donkey was not held to account for those actions.

When the E~L vs. Morkin war had started, Donkey -having an ocean 14 colony very near to my main at the time- was the first to bother me with nondescript nonsense and generalistic teasing/provoking or whatever you might call it. Obnoxious behaviour for which I gave him a warning by demonstrating what I had on that nearby colony. One time. After which he shut up for the duration of the war. Donkey was not targeted during the war, except that one attack by me which I deemed was sufficient repayment for his obnoxiousness towards me and "original sins" towards Morkin. The targeted island was a very small one by the way and was only partially damaged.

When the E~L vs. Morkin war was ended (too soon according to people -in both camps- I might add), Donkey showed up again on my doorstep taunting me, then somewhat later trying to beg for some compensation for the damage done. I replied that we in Morkin would normally consider that but as we didn't get anything from E~L when we asked for a symbolic amount, we were -in turn- not going to honour his individual request either. I also pointed out he was in part responsible for the damage done to us at first. No reply from Donkey ofcourse, to that.

Times went by and every now and then Donkey sent me a semi-provocative message, ranging from "How's Morkin ?" to utter nonsense in which was raving about how clever his plans were and that he had so much fun. I didn't respond.

His latest verbal abuse was two messages to me. I sent him two messages. One of which was a covert warning (well, not THAT covert actually) that if he would continue to bother me he might end up loosing all his colonies. He ignored it, attacked Perun's colony: Pharos Nova 13:72:4 . That was to us the final cut, we started talking about what to do about him.

I warned him again, but he continued and colonized the colony of Perun. We decided that he would pose a constant threat to our "tranquility" and that he should be removed from the board and our colony be taken back. We would also demonstrate to him in detail why we won the E~L war: his main was leveled to 51, his fleets caught and destroyed, one colony handed over to Ratem, one to me, and one to either Ratem, Steptoe or myself. Perun trying to take back his. Donkey had learned a few tricks (built more spears) so we did loose ships and stuff as well in the process, so when LordStyles of Hermes came to Natmus to complain and demanded we stop immediately, we were like "that option has come and gone again". LordStyles is a very slow person apparently. Explaining the situation to him was strenuous. He threathened with going to Ares ofcourse. We answered: "Which part of 'Donkey attacked us first' did you not understand ?"

So, in short all the usual aggrevations we get from playing Inselkampf were included ;~)

The point is that Donkey won't let go and if we let him keep even one single colony he will be turning what's on that colony in no time towards harassing us, again. We have warned him sufficiently, he didn't back off. He took the first shot at us, and for all of that we have concluded he needs to be neutralized and that's what I'm currently taking care of.
