[planning] Operation Truth and Light

[SkulkrinBait]

With the recent spate of attacks against us and the content of the correspondence we’ve had with our attackers, I think (as do others by the look of it) it is likely that DL and PF have been spreading malicious rumours.

I would like to propose that we launch an attack ASAP to teach these two (and their alliases) a lesson, we can do this without compromising Operation Winter Solstice as we can take them on and wipe them off the face of IK without any problem. The question is of course whether or not this would result in a full-scale alliance war, which would wipe out Morkin.

I suggest those who are willing to attack now add their details to this thread and leave Morkin, so those not wanting any part of the battle have a chance to survive should a full scale alliance war erupt. We can either set up a new alliance for smiting our enemies (maybe called Doomdark) or just stay non-aligned.

From reading the various replies on the forums from our attackers it seems someone has been manipulating them and trying to do their best in terms of covering their tracks. We all know who that points to.

We need to fight fire with fire, as well as the military conflict we need to use our diplomatic skills to weave a web of deceit and discord amongst those who are likely to come under the spell of our foes. In this way we may reduce the amount of attacks we suffer from new suckers who might be beguiled by DL and PF et al.

Who’s with me? Regardless of the response to this I am launching attacks on these two in the next few days, I’ve got bored of IK. (But assuming I am not wiped out I am still going for the Winter Solstice operation)

Count me in....

[Natmus]

I'm in, but would like a few days to prepare. Could we make a D-day around next monday (October 17th), or is that too far off?

[SkulkrinBait]

I was thinking this weekend so Monday would be fine by me, let's set that as D DAY.

Anyone want to coordinate this, I will if you like but maybe someone else wants a turn as I did some coordinating of attacks already.

[Natmus]

I know of a few people who would like to join in the kill, but fearful of leaks I will not tell them yet.

CAC wants to know when we go in, so does Matteo. Kim, blaydwoman, is very angry with DL and PhF, and wants to attack nownownow. I'm going to notify them all when we go in, sunday at midnight, but not before.

[Arminius]

Shall we make that an official Morkin matter, rather than a subset attempt?

Also, shall we prepare some col-ships to take over DL's colonies?

[soiram]

So LaT= early PWS?

I am in anyway, but let's coordinate this and utilise our friends and colm's account.

[SkulkrinBait]

Who are we attacking? Just DL and PF or any of their "multis"?

We need spy reports and details of times from our isles to the targets, so we can coordinate to hit around the same time.

I think it would be good to have some colony ships to take over what we can to annoy them as much as possible and reduce the retaliatory attacks.

[Natmus]

If we take DL and PF, we can take Verith too. Kim/blaydwoman is now convinced that PF and Verith both knew of all DL did, but are trying to weasel out of it. This conforms with my own suspicions.

I don't know. I think Verith was genuinely upset and angry that PF sent DL her photos etc. She just wants to enjoy the game and be left alone.

I would vote against attacking her as well; but DL and PF shall feel the full Power of Morkin.

[Natmus]

Frei, can you plot the positions of DL and PF's isles on the map? That way we can easier see what forces go where wehn we attack.

Can do.

Count me in. I'll be happy to throw everything at DL sometime after Midnight Sunday. Shall I scout or would our newest member Colm be a good person to carry out this task?

I think Colm need to do his bit for the cause. Nevermind that DL is protected by Windmill, if something fails in the scoutings, she will be a long time figuring out the connection.

That was what I was figuring. We could also leave them as late as possible while allowing for failed attempts.

On the other hand I could just go in full force. She can't have that big a defense unless she has been given lots of free stonies and cats.

[Perun]

I'm also in. I'd rather die in battle than let be squished little by little by S.H.I.T.s
