House Marik's journey through Kurita space is in coordination with the DCMS council.

I am aware that many players will not hear about the Marik and Kurita alliance but for everyone that reads this, please do not click on the "X planet needs defenders" if it is a planet that Marik is attacking.

It is important for us to focus our resources on real enemies of the DCMS and not our visiting friends. For daily updates on our attack / defend focus, please visit house-kurita.enjinvoice.com.

The wormhole experiment continues!

They're not attackers, that's just how Marik diplomats say hi.

those aren't combat dropships there, its our mobile party buses. feel free to jiggle to the beat and enjoy our space bacon with ournew secret blend of kuritan inspired seasonings.

[Molossian Dog]

Usually it is quite easy to tell if Leaguers are coming as friends or foes.

When we offer bacon, illegal consumables and ask directions to the next brothel we come as friends.

When we offer a laser to the face we may not come as friends.
But then it could also mean we come as family and include you into our civil war as a show of respect.

It is a bit complicated, given.

On a positive note (for Kurita anyway), our attempts to get a beachhead last night after the CF was met with several waves of defenders. Maybe rumours of increased late night Kuritan presence has not been exaggerated?

The problem is the new notification warnings constantly pinging for defenders against Marik forces. Any pugs unaware of our peculiar agreement are sure to click "DEFEND!!". I do hope Marik forces won't have any trouble against stray PUG pilots though.

No, it was just a very pleasant surprise.

I mean, if you guys want "surprises", we will happily obglige every once in a while . Would be a ful change of pace to fight mariks

[Davers]

The two matches I fought in, one attack and one defence, were both fun. It was odd seeing all that red on the OP4.

[Crockdaddy]

I feel a strange need to buy some expensive crab legs ... so I am kinda Jelly that Marik is CBILL feasting on poor pug defenders. On an unrelated note, wish there was some way to connect with the Kurita pugs more easily.

Fingers are crossed and hopeful the "wormhole" experiment works.

Good luck and please remember to pick up any litter when leaving the hospitality of our ryokan for the Clan front!

I look forward to seeing how the Free Worlds League chooses to make use of our joint Stargate program. Although I must admit that I am a little bit torn on this. More help on the Smoke Jaguar and Ghost Bear front is never unwelcome, but what battles I have had against FWL players have been an absolute blast and are strong contenders for becoming my Favorite Enemy. I can't wait to see you guys hit the clan front and take a good swing at the Jade Falcons. That way we can finally pit Clan Green Bird against House Purple Bird to see whose bird is most bird (I'm betting its purple bird who’s more bird myself). Let us know if we ever end up in a position to attack the same planet at the same time, because I love the idea of a joint operation by the DCMS and FWL to join forces (is it even possible for two factions to drop on a single planet? Has PGI said anything about that? Might be worth mentioning in the next CW feedback thread they put up) to remove Steiner/Davion/clanner scum from the premises.

Only on defense for now.

Unfortunately, the game algorithm seems to be treating the advance from Moore as a steiner assault, and is going farther into Kurita space (eastward) instead of moving towards steiner space, or better yet, northward. So far our clever ideas for obtaining a Marik Wolcott aren't working, but maybe things will turn around. Who's idea was it to let a computer make these choices anyway?

[xJohnWolf]

Could we petition the Devs to direct the path northward since both of our governing groups agree? Just a thought... Have two reps send a support request or try to talk to the Devs directly about it. They wanted Player run alliances and politics... This seems pretty legit as a player decision based game change in the territory.

Good idea.

Space Bacon, Pandas and Old Kentucky Bourbon for all the little Kuritan children and their parents.

Oh and the "Space Vegas On Wheels" travelling charitable casino for grandma and grandpa from the Seraphim. Proceeds to go to the war orphan fund, Reverend Ernest Angry's Disco and Temple of comedy MSO show to lift war weary spirits, the church roofs repair fund and marriage counselling for mechwarriors in need.

Yeah. All this talk of Marik Civil war is just extended family get togethers.

A computer's.
