Edited 2007-04-09 for clarity and reducing duration of NAP, definition of Minbari-space added
Proposed Treaty between the Interstellar Alliance ("IA") and the Shadow Alliance ("SA") V1.1 (2463)
Members of the IA:
Minbari, Drakh, Gaim, Llort, pak'ma'ra ("Pak"), SPOOmun Complat ("Spoo")
Members of the SA:
Dilgar, Centauri, Martians, Shadows
Members of the Vorlon Alliance ("VA", "Lightbringers"):
Earthlings ("Earth"), Vorlons, Hyak, Ipsha
Independents:
Gates, Narn (soon to be dead)
Purpose: This treaty is to form the basis for the cooperation between the IA and the SA with the intended goal of the destruction of the Lighbringers.
Victory Conditions:
Due to the overwhelming strength of the VA it appears that a strong cooperation is required. To insure that the IA can fully support the ultimately required combined attack on the Vorlon HW an amendment of the victory conditions is as follows: It is not enough for the SA to defeat the Vorlons and have a fleet in orbit of their homeworld. After the defeat of the Vorlons this treaty is automatically cancelled as per manual cancellation and the victory shall go to the last team standing (admittance of defeat and/or losing all homeworlds of the respective races in the IA or SA to the other side).
Method of Cooperations:
A non-aggression pact ("NAP") is in force between the members of the IA and the SA. This treaty is to be kept secret from the members of the VA for as long as possible.
Information relevant to the destruction of the VA such as ship designs, enemy fleet movements etc. are to be shared.
As the IA is likely to bear the brunt of an initial VA attack should their cooperation with the SA become known, Shadows will provide the Llort and Gaim with weapon and construction technology level 12 to allow for effective defensive ultra stations with jihad missiles and range 3 beams. Further technology transfer and sharing of planetary information shall be decided on a case by case basis.
Minbari, Gaim and Llort will set the members of the SA to friendly to allow passage of minefields and refuelling stops for SA fleets heading to VA worlds. Messages about fleets entering IA space detailing their makeup and mission shall be sent beforehand.
SA members shall set Minbari, Llort and Gaim to friendly to allow unhindered passage to the already established colonies in SA space, IA will in return not establish any further colonies without explicit approval except for those within Minbari space. The worlds of Ball Bearing, Grape, Amontillado LGM 2, 14 Coli, Rock and Almagest are considered Minbari space in addition to the worlds already colonized by them.
Pak and Spoo will set the members of the SA to neutral for now and vice-versa because of strained past relations. Friendly settings can be discussed when required, e.g. for combined fleet actions or passage through strategic minefields near VA planets. No ships of the others shall be targeted unless clearly violating the other sideīs space though a diplomatic solution and warning to withdraw shall be send beforehand. A limited number of scouts shall be allowed in the otherīs space as a trust building measure.
Duration:
The treaty can be cancelled at any time by any side of the agreement. Automtatic cancellation occurs after the destruction of the Vorlon HW.
After notice of cancellation the non-aggression treaty stays in effect for 6 turns before hostilities are allowed. For the first 2 of these 6 turns friendly settings that were in effect have to be maintained to allow ships to move out of minefields and return to their own worlds. The rest of the 4 turns relations have to be set to neutral.
