 I sent this (before seeing the Gaim message). It was in response to the accidental message sent from the Centauri - see below.

I received this message that may not have been intended for me.

Please do not break down the levels of cooperation that is critical to maximise SA/IA chances against the VA.

Both the SPOO & the Gaim have put away their daggers & we are all committed against the VA menace. Times have changed & relationships have with it. Kinda like in WW II when Western Europe/USA fought on the same side as the Russians. If the VA is to be defeated we need to cooperate & combine. We should all have friend status with the others - I am willing to talk about a formal agreement to that end if you wish & I know that the Gaim favour such an approach. Tho the SPOO have not said so in as many words, the fact that they have recently begun providing intel reports to the Shadows & that they are talking (within the IA) about combined SA/IA strategy indicates that they too would sign an agreement. The Pak/Hyak relationship has been an odd one - Hyaks have been helping the Pak with OAs but this year the Hyaks have activated their NAP exit clause with the Pak so that is about to change - you can be confident that the Pak too will be fighting against the VA.

So I urge you all to work with the IA in a close & cooperative way. I know all the core IA members well - you can be sure that there will be no treachery from the IA side.

It seems to me that the central area (planets such as Lhasa, Dipstick) is emminently suited for packet attacks against the VA - they have a number of young planets in the area that could be eliminated with relatively small packets. It may also be worth talking with the SPOO about planets (such as Nada) in the south-central east - I don't know if those planets have suitable habs but maybe the Centauri & SPOO could talk about planet exchange since the 2 races have complimentary habs.

BTW the Narn have asked me to take over their turns - apparently ADG_Wraith's wife is very sick in hospital & he is spending his spare time with her. With that in mind I would appreciate it if you could all set the Narn to friend. The race is very weak & will probably lose their 3 remaining planets soon but I am transfering some of my scouts to them - since they are WM their intel is quite valuable. I thought about the appropriateness of this but have decided that the Narn are technically in the IA anyway so I think that it's OK - I also sought & received approval from the host.

Greetings;

> > > Marduk - your packets are the only thing that will hurt the VA badly and you need to set up mass drivers with zillions of minerals available to kill any planet they start to set up. This means that you need planets farther south to set up.

As well, the SPOOmun minefields are blocking us from moving south in the east, and they are adding to their population on Foch - the colony they stole from us. Given that and the fact that they attacked Centauri ships two years in a row after the supposed truce, I have no reason to believe they will honor their side of any bargain. Once could have been attributed to an error in orders; twice clearly means they have no intention of holding to a truce.
> >
> > Some of our resources will still have to go towards building ships to defend ourselves against the SPOOmun Complat, regardless of any assurances they offer - and certainly I cannot place any colonies where they will be at the mercy of the SPOOmun. Given the threat posed by the Vorlons and their minions, I will abandon our claim on Foch and not advance into SPOOmun space - but our orders are now to attack SPOOmun ships as we encounter them and they will remain that way. I cannot allow the SPOOmun to come any farther north, where they would pose an even greater threat. I will also have to send ships periodically to make sure their minefields do not grow enough to destroy any of our ships.
