Justicia Universi

Posted - 2006.01.15 18:40:00 -

A Federation Naval Officer stands upon a Stage preparing to provide answers to the Media which have gathered below. Numerous mics & cameras struggle to find the perfect angle.
"I am Justicia Universi, Captain within the Federation Navy assigned with The Cyrene Initiative attached with Ixion Defense Systems. As you may know the Paramilitary group known as the Aegis Militia has declarded an "Unjust" War and attempts to enforce an "Unauthorized" Reclaimation campaign against the Citizens of the Federation. This sudden move by AM did create confusion at first but do know the the Battle has been met and skirmishes are occuring in many locations at this moment as Ixion Defense Systems stubbornly defends the Federations borders."She points to a reporter and says "I'll take the first question." "My name is Maria Elcalla Dela Pinta Diego from Eye On the Federation News." "What was the Aegis Militia's reasons for the attack and will their be sign of a cease fire within the future?" Justicia Universi activates a holoprojection and the following appear: QUOTE(" Mirial ") Due to the previous incident involving your corporation and alliance and other Amarrian paramilitaries, Aegis Militia seeks confirmation of your stance with regard to the Empire and the Reclaiming if peace is to be maintained. The Cyrene Initiative must publically on the Intergalactic Summit forum, renounce any and all links to Minmatar terrorism and extremism both present and in the future. This includes any form of aid whether in material resources, intelligence information, or other intangibles. To show its sincerity, the Cyrene Initiative is also requested to send a representative to within the borders of the Amarrian Empire, and trade 1000 slaves, purchased within the Empire to Aegis Militia. We will pay 10% above standard market rates for this and will welcome this show of Cyrene Initiative's commitment against terrorism and for apitalistic trade between our two nations. As such a transaction would take place entirely within the borders of the Empire, no Federation laws will be broken. From the sending of this missive, there will be 24 hours given for a reply in the affirmative at which point details may be negotiated on for the trade. A negative response or a lak of response in 24 which will be interpreted as a negative response will be seen as condoning and abetting Minmatar terrorism against the Empire.
"So just to clarify, The Cyrene Initative is now under the guidance of Admiral Crausuam. The Ixion Defense Systems will have and never had and part to play on the accusation the we were collaborating with Minmatar Terrorist. Our Official stance is that Terrorism caused by either Amarran or Minmatar factions will not be permissable in Federation borders and as for the 1000 slaves requested...one word comes to mind. "NUTS!" "So it is with deep regret that this conflict will not come to a cease-fire any time soon. The Aegis Militia seemed poised on carrying the War Ff Terror on Federation Citizens and Ixion Defense Systems will continue to oppose them until their leaders realize how futile this War Declartion really is." "I thank you for patience but that is all for now" "Freedom and Justice to those who are opressed!" Captain Univer Salutes and retreats to the back stage.

*shrug* cyrene is dead, has been for days now. We will make a statement when the time comes.
Posts on intergal ammount to nothing of worth, take some of this fire into space Ms. Universi, go out with a high note. We are imortal after all, what matters if we lose ship and pod?
Cyrene is not even Cyrene anymore, it is only what little is left of Ixion (a few honorable warriors among them). The walls have been burnt, the city scourged. a few hold outs hiding and running and trying to hit lone targets does nothing for the Gallente Federation nor has any effect upon us.
this is the second Gallente Union the Amarrian Paramilitary forces have destroyed. maybe from the ashes a stronger force will arise, but i doubt it.

I must remind Ixion systems of their position. Making grandiose commentry on the state of the warfare as if they were in a position of strength to dictate it's terms.
The alliance known as the Cyrene Initiate is no more. It's ranks reduced from over a hundred to just one corporation of 20 members. Ixion's power projection has been nullified in a series of surgical strikes that have reduced it's numbers and offensive capabilities.
As released by one of AM's number to the press and I quote "When one has raised the town, scattered it's defenses and it's population to the four winds. One does not seek a peasant to sign his name to prove he has lost."
Your talk of continuing to oppose the Militia is commendable but you mistake our attack as an invasion and occupation of Gallente space. I believe AM made their terms quite clear that the removal of the threat that was Cyrene Initiate was our primary goals,and our demands merely to make examples of you whom have suffered the Empire's wrath.
Perhaps, like the Empire's subjugation of the Matari people will kindle a burning fire of hatred in you for us that may allow you to forge something stronger than the ashen corpse that was Cyrene Initiative.

Stares at Tomohawk Bliss and Soratah
" I find it curious how you speak of your goals of eliminating The Cyrene Initiative, and how it is now crushed and no more. You say these things publicly, but in the end, they make you out to be a liar do they not? Ixion Defense Systems is, The Cyrene Initiative. Are we no more? Have we been crushed into non-existence? No we haven't, and we will not be. You speak of the way to fight back is not to with small skirmishes, attempting to find weaker forces within your ranks, but with head on attacks. What kind of tactics are those? Why would we , outnumbered by such a huge degree, attack your forces head on? It is of no matter; Ixion will not submit to "Reclaiming" attempts, and Cyrene will live on and Aegis Militia will not recieve the slaves."

It's as much bad form of Aegis Militia to keep pounding their chests after defeating an easy enemy as it's bad form of Cyrene to admit to having lost the war on a grand scale. Realities have to be faced at some point.
But do keep on going. It amuses me to no end.

Look closely, and find me the AM press release related to this war. I didn't write one, the Cyrene threads have told the story quite well enough.
Tell me we have beat our chests.
The strongest blows were struck before word ever reached the public that a state of war existed.
We consider that an optimal result. The efficiency of an AM operation precludes the politics of it.
Lets also remember that at the time of war declaration, Cyrene held 130 pilots to our 108.

In the Cyrene Initiative only the Ixion Defense Systems remain. A proud, Gallante Faction based Military RP Corp of a few individuals. We who are few, have become the stumbling block against the "Mighty" AM war machine. For the record, since this war has begun...Ixion has lost ZERO members and AM has lost a few but the numbers count never really tells the whole truth. Ships, isk and members come and go. Objectives are the clear definition of a campaigns success. Ixion still stands proud, the Cyrene Initiative lives thru us. AM's objective and demands still remain unfullfilled. With each passing day our members are becoming more seasoned thru the experiences that AM is teaching us. Every engagement we grow stronger, with each passing day we are becoming more seasoned. What was once a small group with mostly Green combat captains is slowly becoming a group of battle hardened veterans at an Empire PvP enviroment. Resistance will only continue to stiffen as we absorb valuable knowledge from encounters with AM.

Ixion isn't (or should I say wasn't) the entirety of Cyrene Initiative. AM's goals were very specific on this issue, to neutralise CYI's capabilities to be a threat to the Amarrian Empire. Whichever way you look at this from 180 members down to 20 members (even despite the unfortunate timing of Corelli leaving (something that you may notice we're NOT taking credit for) CYI's military capability has been reduced.
As for other demands, I believe they were boons and secondary goals for AM to make examples of those who would attack Amarrian personnel and interests.
As for the comment of AM beating it's chest. Graelyn is correct. This war was kept secret until the first posts started appearing on IGS from CYI's membership. Now im very sorry if us responding to CYI's news statements is us "flaunting" our victories. However, I believe that outside obvservers are entitled to hear both sides of the story so they can formulate their own opinion on current events.

Why is it that exact numbers have to be brought into this? They are of no moment. Also, I don't remember there being 180 members in The Cyrene Initiative, but I have never been held in high esteem for my mathematics skills.
On another note, The Cyrene Initiative wishes to make itself known, to let people know our roleplay; if we were to keep everything quiet and discreet, who would even know that Cyrene is a role play alliance?
Also, why are you arguing with us about where our stance in OUR roleplay is. I notice all over accusations of us fraternizing with Jericho Faction, teaming up the Minmatar Terrorists. I was assigned to Ixion Defense Systems quite a while ago, and have never once found these accusations to be true. So, why don't we not argue about beating our chests and bragging about our accomplishments and keep this to the point.
Aegis Milita, accuses The Cyrene Initiative with assisting Minmatar Terrorists in strikes against the empire, and also for Fraternizing with Jericho Faction.
Is that about on the Mark?
Syric Amarust-
We say that you are false, The current Initiative is guilty of none of these charges, but continue this war if you want. It will still end in a pointless situation as all of us in Cyrene have realized since Aegis Militia Declared war on us 1 week ago. Peace? What is peace? War? What is War? Life? What is Life? |

Well I certainly don't think you've been fratanising with us too closely if you still can't spell "Fraction" 
Seriously though, its a strange old "war" this. A small band of Amarr zealots make war on a bunch of Gallente drug-dealers and demand a prize of slaves. Said drug-dealers run off to be pirates and the Amarr zealots declare victory over the Gallente Federation 
I'm in two minds as to whether this is more or less impressive than PIE bullying the Glamour Bunnies over a fashion calander.
Still, I have to admit I've never really known anything about the Cyrene Initiative or most of its member corporations but I do like the fighting spirit Ixion Defense Systems are bringing to the table now. Don't listen to these chest-beating Amarri nuts and turncoat Brutor mouthpieces IDS! Let me know if there is anywhere I can send a small donation to your war budget and make them pay to keep the wardec going. As long as you keep fighting they won't be able to stomach the humiliation of a climbdown and make sure you rub it in when they finally end their "road-trip".

Not really sure what you mean by that Jasmine or why it was brought up, but I do have to point out that all GLS promotions and policies regarding the Calendar remained unchanged regardless of any complaints from Amarr paramilitaries (unless you count the extra promotional activities because of it ).
On that note I have to congradulate Ixion Defense Systems for their stance. You are an inspiration for other Federation patriots.

I think I need to make a few more points here to clarify our position on this matter.
1) arguing about the initial number (be it 180 or 130) is really just an exercise in trying to find some way to disprove my argument without actually addressing my issues raised.
2) As stated on our forums, we dont give a rutting damn that CYI have associated themselves with JF at all. Their political stance is merely a counterpoint to the ordered meme that is the Empire. Since they haven't involved themselves beyond making odious commentry it really is of no interest us at all. Make no mistake I must affirm that AM does NOT care about the association with JF.
3) This war was inevitable when members of CYI destroyed Amarrian property (namely a Paramilitary pilot). Considering the entirety of Amarr considers attacks upon itself of this nature to be terrorist acts it is the policy of the Amarr and it's pod pilot paramilitaries to insure the Empire's stability by targetting terrorist groups and reducing their capabilities to conduct further terrorist acts.
Because of the principle assault (whether it was by current members of CYI or not) we still were obliged to implement our established pogrom.
4) Assuming we cease hostilities (whether or not you've given in to our demands to sell us slaves or not) we have still achieved our primary objective of reducing the offensive capability of CYI. Now I extrapolate this from the fact that CYI is no longer able to power project with a number larger than 20, simple mathematics. But please follow Jasmine's advice and declare yourselves victors if we undeclare, you may of noticed that those in IGS do not really care anymore, merely "rubbing in" as ms Constantine put it will probably rob you of whatever sympathetic feelings you have amongst the pod community.
5) I'd like to also point out that none of my arguments were fallacious, based on my faith, or illogical in any way. Of course you could argue that my interpretation of the facts were influenced by my affiliation. However, since I've remained perfectly objective and many have not I think I'll take my words as having more weight.
Lastly, The Gallente Federation is of no current interest to us. I do hope that will force CYI to rebuild and become a stable alliance. This is a good thing for everyone because stability generally means no unstable fundamentalist extremists to deal with. Less instability less terrorist attacks, less threat for everyone.

Whilst some may content themselves with arguing over the reasons for this conflict, I can only applaud the bravery shown by the pilots of Ixion Defence Systems in the face of seemingly insurmountable odds.
As a token of respect and fraternitT between peoples of the Federation, Jus des Dieux is donating a crate of superior spiced wine to each of your pilots, to further bolster their already formidable morale and aid in their relaxation between sorties against your oppressors.

Attempting to paint a different picture only serves to damage your credibility on such matters, a stigma that will stay with you for years, thus I do not recommend you persue such a course of action.

Crushed? Of the three corporations in the alliance, one was already in the process of leaving before you declared your holy war and the other left due to internal disagreement and struggle. This means only one corporation has left because of your war while one remains unhindered. From the amount of conversation I've seen on the Galnet and intersystem communication channels, Aegis Militia is not only experiencing a great deal of ship losses against Ixion Defence Systems, but AM has lost a corporation from their own alliance as well.
A corporation for a corporation, and Ixion still stands strong against your "Holy War" masking nothing more than Warlust. Truley, the mighty have fallen. --------------

Edited by: Mather Maelstrom on 19/01/2006 23:24:59 They are just sad that the war they prepared well over a month ago isn't giving them the targets they wish to have. They wished to crush an alliance and hoped to gain many kills, but instead they got an alliance of which the main corporation already broke up a few days ahead before they declared a war.
Look at the current ISD propaganda that has been released, I thought the connections with the U'K were not to a reason for the war? The only connections the UÆK had were with Coreli and they were as good as; cooperating where it suited both entities and shooting each other when disagreeing (fine relations there). I know for a fact that just only a few people in the corporation hoped for better relationships with the U'K and that the majority as far as I know did not.
WasnÆt it said that the war was only; ôto stop a possible ally to the Matari cause and force them to denounce current and future support to the Matari people.ö Nice to see this has changed back again to the ôUÆK connection,ö which once more makes the current war completely unjustified.
The ôjibba jabbaö behind the convoy is also portrayed only partially correct. We all know that the true reason for CoreliÆs presences there was due to a heavy physical assault on one of its employees ôLuance deAngeluotti.ö
For a simple convoy there was more firepower present to defend it then for the people æinterceptingÆ it, makes you wonder what they were transporting? Even more spectacular was that during the conflict there was enough support available nearby to change slim odds to æbadÆ odds in a short amount of time.
Let us not forget that the loss in the end during the battle was a price to great to pay: click
Of course all of that was enough material for some bored empire 2nd rank citizens to come to Gallente space and start a war with some people that have very little to do with it. I think all this gibberish is just a weak reason for those bored pilots to have their portion of æbloodlustÆ and time to watch erotic/ action holovids from the Gallente market. It just gives that bit more excitement to their boring lives doing weekly sermons.
I know that ever since they have appeared IÆve been making more isk from holovidsà just a coincidence?
