Because he brings up legitimate points, that's why.

The Chiss were close to negotiating a treaty to call an end to a war they had a massive advantage in from the start. I was the Chiss FL when things started, I'm not gonna lie, that war would've been shorter than the little people Exodeus routinely punts. The Chiss have a huge advantage in terms of technology, stability, manpower and positioning, not to mention they're allies with the incredibly beast Empire.

In addition to that, I'm about to do a thread with Raif to help set up Roon and multiple people have RP'd setting that area up to be our new homeland. Given Roon's past it makes WAY more sense for us to be there as opposed to the middle of west bumble**** and Endor.

Lastly, I was not even approached a little about this, and I'm the second in command.

As I stated relationship with the Chiss will continue as possible and Roon will most likely still be held with Mandalorian influence per Yawning's ruling.

We were plotting ourselves around ONE planet. We need a system free to move. I regret not informing you about this, but I wanted this plan enacted swiftly as possible. We will continue that topic in our MSN chat.

I'm well aware of this. However, Bac opposed this.

Then we wait for him an Yawn to discuss it further.

if agreeable to the GA.

That says it all right there. A real Mando wouldn't give a ****. Roon may have been within Galactic Alliance territory, but it wasn't occupied by thier military forces or citizens. The Galactic Alliance had two choices. Face the Sith Imperium and their allies alone or allow the Mandalorians a few worlds within their territory that they had no presence on in the first place. They lose nothing, but they gain us as an ally. That was the incentive. They don't fuss about it, we help them out. Instead, your character is more concerned with what fat politicians on Coruscant will think if we occupy some backwater world they probably didn't even know about until we told them we claimed it as ours. Truth is, the GA doesn't have the resources or the manpower to try and kick us out and fight the combined forces of the Imperium and Chiss militaries... forget it. You'll do what you want. That's clear. Corden will have no part in it.

Also a reminder to others, Johnny is the Mandalore, the Faction Leader, and while we have rights to question his actions when appropiate, he is most likely doing what is best for all the faction rather some of us think it is or not.

Again with your "Real Mandos would do this" and "Real Mandos would do that"...

I think you need to chill out and have a kit kat or something.

EDIT: As to having "no part in it", if Mandalore calls for you, you must obey it. Otherwise it would be considered treason.

Did I ever once say I was catering to them? I do this for the Clans longevity. What room did we have to expand from our prior holdings? A couple of planets surrounded by a singular establishment on outlying planets? We were corralled effectively in that area with only two places to call our own and even most of the space was theirs. We had planets in the Unknown Regions bot those are scattered and surrounded by uncharted space.

You need to change your attitude about the GA. Get past your ego and see that we need them more than they need us and they have been more than generous. What do we gain from pissing them off? It's one thing to be confident about our faction, but you border on arrogance especially in your talks with the Chiss. We gain nothing from being combative with them simply because they have other enemies abroad.

I'm tired of your attitude and if you wish to leave the faction then do so. It is months overdue.

Neither does the Mandalorians. And I'm also sure that alliances are not one-sided arrangements. If I was the leader of the GA, I wouldn't even consider giving the Mandalorians control over any planet under GA sovereignty. The GA is giving the Mandos generous offerings and yet you're still stomping your foot crying "No, this isn't how it's supposed to be!" Calm the **** down.

Let's everyone please take a step back and calm down before tensions get high here. It's not needed and it won't do this faction or any of the people involved here any good.

My question after reading all this is..

What is the issue?

From what I've read Prancing Yawn still has to make an appearance unless the Admins/Bac have settled on what exactly is going on. Other than that I've just read non-sense.

You're right, Bac. I apologize. I was a bit... spirited there. It's just something I'm passionate about. It wasn't directed at anyone personally, but even so...

This is what i would think, the chiss are dealing with us, why are we calling friendly? as much as a ceasefire is well and good right now. We should be rebuilding with the thoughts of nothing more than being the gargamel and azreal to those little moresells.

They have tech and manpower. But we have forging skills that have proven for millenia to be considered the best in the galazy. We're legends whose planetary defenses should have held back anything that attacked us on our homeworlds... >.> 'should' have.

Each of us is a man or woman with the heart of a lion that has now be wounded, and i would imagine every mando right now would be baying for blood. For every one of us who falls we'll take out five, so bring on your fleets, bring on your allies. We're MANDOS, and we're about to put the MAN in our name again!!!

And through sheer true grit, bravado, and determination. We will tear apart ANYTHING thrown at us!

On a lighter note... We dont have allies cos it seems to me we haven't been fanning out at all. If the mandos were kicked out, the Echani would have fled, lets contact them, yeah, they're rivals, but rivals of a similar banner. The douinougwuin have TRIED talking to the mandos, but i never got replies >.>

The wookies are mando-'ish,' a proud warrior race who would relate well with us. Lets talk to them too! Hell, I'LL do it!

Missed all the fun but I dont really see a problem here.

End of the day Johnny is the leader and this isn't a council, he is the grand daddy.

I have no problem with conquering New Worlds. In fact, lets conquer as many as possible.

We aren't conquering, we're blindly accepting what the Galactic Alliance doesn't care to lose. We cheer and think we're getting the better end of the deal and they laugh behind our backs because we're foolish enough to think we got something significant.

People are forgetting that the Mandalorians are a mobile fighting force numbering in the billions. The Imperium alone has the numbers and the drive to steam roll over the Alliance vast swath of territory. That's one of the Alliance's weaknesses; they have a ton of territory and it spreads them thin. The Mandalorians have a stronghold with only two entrances, both of which are difficult to traverse. They are the Hot Gates for the Mandalorians. Numbers mean nothing there. We don't NEED countless worlds to populate. We have several planets and moons in the Cloak of the Sith. Whole planets. Whole moons. That's a lot of room. The rest of our people, naturally, would remain largely mobile. We're a nomadic people. It makes sense for us to present as few tangible targets as possible... and the one target we are presenting, Roon, is a death trap for any assaulting force... luckily for us, there's a thing called hyperspace travel. We can be across the galaxy, closing in on any of our enemies, with the touch of a button. Why spread ourselves thin like the Alliance? Why not remain elusive and hard to pin down? Because you want to see numbers? Are the number of planets we own a reflection of our power or just an unneccesary frivolity?

The Mandalorians had more planet's when they had there home system so saying we are spreading ourselves thin is a complete misrepresentation.

The advantage we have now is we have whole planet's to move our people to and build ourselves up with an entire system resources rather then having the majority of people based around one place.

I'm pretty sure he meant that in response to Ender suggesting to getting as many planets as possible.
