William: Kas' offer of peace to the Taraakians went unheeded, and they began offensive military operations. Due to their agression, we are now in a state of war. The offer is, needless to say, no longer valid. The taraakians have shown their true colors, and now they're about to find out that they bit off more than they could handle, because the Union isn't going down without a fight, a large fight, a large and very likely bloody fight.

Iuz sends a message broadcasted and disseminated far and wide... he is seated on his throne, a gentle red kimono all about him... his eyes burning like fire...
"People of the many spheres... listen to my words... they shall be brief. We have reached the 11th hour, the time for own autonomy is coming to an end at the hands of invaders... for that is what they are... invaders... they come to consume and change our way of life... utterly..."
"Hazen, President Ronald, and the rest of the Kevellond League have sided with them... they believe that they will usher a new age... I say what age is this where choice... is squashed... freewill a distant memory..."
"They seek to control," Iuz pauses, "they seek to strip you of everything that makes us wholly Oerthian, Torillian, Athasian... or what have you. Your magic, they shall take, your technology stripped, for we are children to them not worthy of such things..."
Iuz clenched a fist, "They are hypocrites... they bring everlasting peace by sterilizing whole worlds... will you be pacified? Will you allow them to take what you have earned? That is what they want... for us to cower and break... and give into their demands..." Iuz looks determined...
"NOW!!! Now is the time to CHOOSE! Do you lie down and let fate run its course... or do you rise... fight back by any means possible? I say fight... support the cause of freedom and life! Support our integral right to choose our own path. We shall not be conquered... we shall not be cowed like Hazen and his Angels... we shall not be herded away to safety... we shall stand and fight for our worlds... we will win.. we must win..."
Iuz reclines and relaxes, "Now... now is the time to choose... for tomorrow may never come..." the scene fades to black...

I suggest we move the IR to a messageboard that actually works more than 70% of the time. (and that's a bloody generous estimate)

A message to all openly anti-terraakian factions in the IR
"You know me. The God Emperor of the Union of Worlds. From poverty and chaos have I, and Kas, built the nation of Aerdi into an empire spanning the prime material, rivalled by few, surpassed by none. Every war I have fought I have won, every enemy beaten into submission, exile or death and trough it all I have emerged stronger than ever. This is who I am. I cannot be defeated.
And now, now we are facing a greater enemy than any we have faced before. Greater than Vecna, greater than the Red Scourge, greater than the Mists of Dread, greater even than each others. And yet, we do not fear. We will vanquish the terraakian fleet, imprison them, alter them, educate or annihilate them, depending on our personal choice and whim. The price we might pay is tremendous, but there can only be one outcome. We will win and we will have our freedom!
However, winning requires certain preparations. I suspect many of you are planning to attack the terraakian ship with conventional military force as well as with high magics. Well, the Humanoid Alliance happen to posess a few thousand nuclear weapons. When they go off I would prefer if no allied armies are in the general vicinity of the terraakian ship, it would be rather messy if they are. Instead I suggest that our united attack take place in three stages. First an attack with 11th level magics, then a strike with weapons of mass destruction and then a conventional attack of steel and flesh. That would cut down on casualties from friendly fire considerably.
In case friendly fire would in some cases turn out to be intentional I suggest we keep a close eye on each others. You never know..."

The colours are a bit harch on the eyes and I have no idea how userfriendly it is, but it seems a lot better than this one. At this stage of our game there's really no reason to be on the EN-boards. Their strength is the great numbers of visitors, that enabled us to create the game in the first place. But now that strength has become a weakness, since there are far too many people visiting the boards than they can handle.

The remaining Legion of Dread will publicly declare all our attacks on the terrakians...mantaining the defenses from the previous day...
(I'm sorry for not being able to post, but consider myself in a position similar to Forsaken One's, my surprise attack is ruined-so to speak)
Edena, please answer my emails as soon as you can, I won't do project ensnarement just yet but I want to see if my research project will work, especially at a time like this where it might be needed.

Edena, in these circumstances my 11th level Powers are defending themselves.
