| 21:00 | CaptMcCloud | *USS_Eagle_sim_220420* =/\= ATTENTION ON DECK =/\= MISSION BRIEF |
| 21:00 | Cdr_Hart | ::AA:: |
| 21:00 | Lt_Andrews | ::aa:: |
| 21:00 | *** CmdrDutcher joined #usseagle | |
| 21:00 | Lt_Banning | ::@@:: |
| 21:01 | CmdrDutcher | (sorry, had a meeting that ran late) I believe the crew has come to attention Sir ::AA:: |
| 21:03 | CaptMcCloud | Good evening,, Crew. It is good to see we are, once again, able to sim. Sor far, everything seems stable. Hence, the sim brief, from two weeks ago, stands for tonight's sim. Do we have any questions before we get started? |
| 21:03 | Cdr_Hart No questions here, Skipper. | |
| 21:03 | CmdrDutcher | No, Sir. |
| 21:03 | Lt_Andrews | No questions, Sir. |
| 21:03 | Lt_Banning | No, Sir. |
| 21:04 | CaptMcCloud | Excellent, let's... |
| 21:04 | ... | =/\= BEGIN SIM =/\= |
| 21:04 | NOTE: Names appearing in GREEN indicate NPCs | |
| 21:05 | CmdrDutcher | ::in the alternate conference room ready to negotiate with Nintaag:: |
| 21:05 | CaptMcCloud | CO > ::in the conference room with Hart, and Lin, looking at the ship's status on the large wall monitor:: |
| 21:06 | Nintaag | RCO > :its at the table, but has a defiant look in his eyes.:: |
| 21:07 | Cdr_Hart | CENG > ::in the conference room, also looking at the ship's status:: |
| 21:07 | Lin | HCO > ::looks at the monitor:: I did not even realize there was a screen up there. |
| 21:08 | Lt_Andrews | TAC > :n the bridge, now has a weapons lock on the Regulain warship, ready to take out their weapons array:: [ OPS ] Just say the word, Commander. |
| 21:09 | CmdrDutcher | [XO] >[RCO] Sir, I know that there are a lot of hard decisions that must be made. But I am curious about something. |
| 21:10 | LtCdrWren | OPS> ::in the command seat:: [ TAC ] We will await the captain's mark. |
| 21:11 | Nintaag | RCO >[ XO ] ::his brows furrowed:: What do you want to know? |
| 21:12 | Cdr_Hart | CENG >[ HCO ] Our ship is full of little wonders like that. That is a breakdown of ship's systems. Right now, the Regulain ship is only an annoyance to us. |
| 21:13 | Lin | HCO >[ CENG ] Very impressive, Commander Hart. |
| 21:13 | CmdrDutcher | [XO]>[RCO] While I understand that the Heku were at one time also considered to be the same as your race, and your government wants them back, This seems to be almost personal to you. Can you help me understand why? |
| 21:14 | Nintaag | RCO >[ XO ] Why do you suppose it is personal to me? I am only doing my job for my people. |
| 21:15 | Lt_Banning | SCI > ::at sciences on the bridge, scanning the incoming reinforcements:: |
| 21:16 | CmdrDutcher | [XO]>[RCO] Well for one thing, there seems to be a great amount of animosity between yourself and the Heku Commander that goes beyond one's duty. |
| 21:16 | CaptMcCloud | CO >[ HCO ] Sub-Kentrel? Are we wasting our time here? What about your people? When they arrive, will they observe any cease-fire, we may establish between your and Kentrel Nintaag? |
| 21:17 | CmdrDutcher | [XO]>[RCO] And for another, as a representative of your government isn't it prudent to discuss alternatives to an all out war? |
| 21:18 | Nintaag | RCO >[ XO ] Tell me, Commander, how well do you receive enemies of your Federation? I'm certain you have *some*. |
| 21:18 | Cdr_Hart | CENG > ::studies Lin as he waits for the answer:: |
| 21:19 | Lin | HCO >[ CO ] :onders the question a moment, then looks to McCloud:: I believe I can persuade them not to engage in combat, Captain McCloud. |
| 21:21 | CmdrDutcher | [XO]>[RCO] :miles:: Yes, there are some. But we have always tried a peaceful approach first. And in many cases that has created an alliance. However there are those races that do not respond to talks and choose to take aggressive action. |
| 21:21 | CaptMcCloud | CO >[ HCO ] If we were to make advance contact with your reinforcements, do you think you can plead the case, before they arrive? |
| 21:22 | Nintaag | RCO >[ XO ] And, how do you treat those enemies? Are you openly warm to them? |
| 21:23 | Lin | HCO >[ CO ] Can you talk to them without a delay in your transmissions? |
| 21:24 | CaptMcCloud | CO >[ HCO ] We can, and are willing to open a channel to them, now, if you think it will do any good. |
| 21:24 | Cdr_Hart | CENG >[ HCO ] We don't want those ships to show up and start shooting. |
| 21:25 | CmdrDutcher | [XO]>[RCO] Kentrel Nintaag, as I have said, we try a peaceful response first, even with our enemies. But I want to know, what is your true motivation. What happened that made this a matter for aggression and not negotiation? |
| 21:26 | Lin | HCO >[ CENG ] :: nods:: Yes, I can see that. { CO ] I am willing to try, Captain McCloud. |
| 21:28 | Nintaag | RCO >[ XO ] ::huffs:: I thought that would be clear to you. They *were* our colony. They refused the will of the Regulain Domain. How would your Federation feel if one of your colonies suddenly went rogue? |
| 21:30 | CaptMcCloud | CO >+[ OPS ]+ McCloud to the bridge. Commander, try and raise one of the Heku ships that are inbound. Patch them through to the conference room if you get an answer. |
| 21:30 | LtCdrWren | OPS >+[ CO ]+ Aye, Captain. ::nods to the current ops officer to do so.:: |
| 21:31 | CmdrDutcher | [XO]>[RCO] I dare say that is a bit extreme. Going Rogue? When they were all but abandoned by the Regulain Domain and left to fend for themselves? If something like that did occur in the Federation, and I am not an expert on if it has or has not happened, then we negotiate a peaceful treaty. |
| 21:34 | Nintaag | RCO > ::huffs again:: [ XO ] But, we did reach out to them... Once we were able to. And, we found they were doing well, but they were not willing to help us, when we needed their resources. |
| 21:36 | =/\=ACTION: It takes several minutes, but one of the incoming Heku ships replies. The ops officer sends it to the conference room. =/\= | |
| 21:36 | CmdrDutcher | [XO]>[RCO] More to the point, Sir, is that we don't force our control on ANY species. And you decided to take what you needed without giving anything in return? |
| 21:37 | CaptMcCloud | CO >+[ HCO2 ]+ Kentrel. I am Captain McCloud of the Federation starship, Eagle. I have some of your people aboard. ::gives a nod to Lin:: |
| 21:38 | Nintaag | RCO >[ XO ] They refused us! Said they didn't need us any longer. Started calling themselves the Heku, after the damn planet they colonized. |
| 21:39 | CmdrDutcher | [XO]>[RCO] May I ask you to do something for a moment? Stop and look at this from their perspective. They felt totally abandoned by the very people they were depending upon. Then when they are finally becoming self sufficient, those that left them show up and demand what they have. Now if the tables were turned, how would your people feel? |
| 21:39 | Lin | HCO > :tands and looks at the screen that once showed the ship's status:: +[ HCO2 ]+ Kentrel Biyd. It is good to see you. |
| 21:41 | Biyd | @HCO2 >+[ HCO ]+ Lin? What has happened to fren? Are you being held against your wishes? Where is your ship? |
| 21:42 | Lin | HCO >+[ HCO2 ]+ Fren, unfortunately died in the attack. No, we are not being held beyond our wishes. The Federation captain has shown us nothing but compassion and aid. The Porfer is not space-worthy any longer. |
| 21:44 | CaptMcCloud | CO > ::wonders how well Dutcher is making out with Nintaag.:: |
| 21:45 | Nintaag | RCO > :onders her question a moment:: [ XO ] I suppose I can see your point, Commander, but it is out of my hands. I am a warship commander, not a politician. |
| 21:47 | Biyd | @ HCO2 >+[ HCO ] When we arrive, we can take your wounded and crew aboard. The Federation captain will release you, Correct? |
| 21:48 | CmdrDutcher | [XO]>[RCO] Yes, but you are the one that is here. While you may not be a politician, you are in a position to make the first steps to find the peaceful solution that will provide those supplies your planet needs. |
| 21:48 | CaptMcCloud | CO >+[ HCO2 ]+ We will release them to you with not strings attached, Kentrel. |
| 21:49 | Nintaag | RCO >[ XO ] We need nothing from them now! We just need for them to stay out of our space. |
| 21:50 | Biyd | @ HCO2 >+[ CO ]+ ::furrows his brows:: Strings attached? What is this meaning? |
| 21:51 | CmdrDutcher | [XO]>[RCO] Then, may I ask why you have not made the same choice? After all we are in Heku space right now. |
| 21:52 | CaptMcCloud | CO >+[ HCO2 ]+ :: smiles:: It means there are no conditions to the release of your people. The *only* thing we ask is that you do not start shooting the moment you arrive. |
| 21:53 | Nintaag | RCO >[ XO ] ::huffs again:: So you say. |
| 21:54 | CmdrDutcher | [XO]>[RCO] No, Sir. AS your own have said. |
| 21:54 | Biyd | @ HCO2 >+[ CO ]+ And what of the Regulain, Captain McCloud? Our sensor can depict a group of ships headed this way, as well. We are certain they are Regulain reinforcements. |
| 21:56 | CaptMcCloud | CO >+[ HCO2 ]+ :: nods:: They are, indeed, Regulain ships. And, by our sensor data, you will all arrive at the same time. We are wishing to avoid further bloodshed and loss of life. |
| 21:57 | CmdrDutcher | [XO]>[RCO] Kentrel Nintag, If your ships enter the Heku space in an agressive manner, Do you not think the Heku would defend their space? I am going to ask that you call off those ships and find a more peacfeul resolution. |
| 21:57 | Nintaag | RCO >[ XO ] :: for the first time, has nothing to say. He simply glares at Dutcher:: |
| 21:58 | Biyd | @ HCO2 >+[ CO ]+ So, you want us to disregard what the Regulain have done to our ship, Captain McCloud? |
| 22:00 | Nintaag | RCO >[ XO ] Are you ordering us to do so, Commander Dutcher? |
| 22:01 | CaptMcCloud | CO >+[ HCO2 ]+ I suppose that is just what I am asking. Haven't your people, and the Regulain, suffered enough loss of life? |
| 22:02 | CmdrDutcher | [XO]>[RCO] I am not in a position to order you to do so. It is merely a strong wish that you see the wisdom of such a move, for both your peoples. |
| 22:03 | Nintaag | RCO >[ XO ] And what of the Heku? Will they not fire on our ships? Or, perhaps we are to just let them take pot-shots at us. |
| 22:04 | CmdrDutcher | [XO]>[RCO] If you agree to a cease fire right now, I am sure that Captain McCloud will be able to negotiate that, if he hasn't already done so. |
| 22:04 | Biyd | @ HCO2 >+[ CO ]+ :: looks from Lin to McCloud, then offers a slight nod and a sigh::I will give it consideration, Captain McCloud. Biyd out. :: the link is suddenly closed.:: |
| 22:06 | Nintaag | RCO >[ XO ] I will have to give it some consideration, Commander Dutcher. Although, transmission between ships, at the current distance are delayed. I may not get the message to them in time. |
| 22:06 | CaptMcCloud | =/\= Pause Sim =/\= |
| 22:06 | Cdr_Hart | ::AA:: |
| 22:07 | CmdrDutcher | ::AA:: |
| 22:07 | Lt_Andrews | ::aa:: |
| 22:07 | Lt_Banning | ::@@:: |
| 22:08 | CaptMcCloud | Great work. We will have some more hours pass between sims, and the two fleets will be upon us, next week. Any questions? |
| 22:08 | Cdr_Hart | None from me, Sir. |
| 22:08 | Lt_Andrews | No, Sir. |
| 22:08 | CmdrDutcher | No, Sir, not at this time |
| 22:08 | Lt_Banning | No questions, Sir. |
| 22:09 | CaptMcCloud | Again, awesome! In that case, you all have a great week. |
