All who wish to join an all glorious alliance of nations please sign up. The perpose is to become a strong confederation that all will fear. We will openly share information and will be joined in all conflicts. Each nation will still have it's own army, but must contribute atleast 12% of it to the Covenant. Pledge your loyalty and become a member of a much feared and repsected force.

Understood. I am dropping the required military service. You do not need to loan your military, but must help other nations of the Covenant if they are in trouble.

yes, but even if you are just a nation you can join.
Mirfak

Mirfak requires military forces (ground forces) and diplomats to be committed to the planetary government's campaign for reunification of the planet's territories. If you will commit sufficient troop numbers to our cause, we will join your alliance once the reunification is complete and the planet is diplomatically stable.

Telegram from The Holy Empire of Albinoism:
The Holy Empire of Albinoism has sent 3000 elite ground troops along with 2 Class II Zealot tank brigades. There that should do it. Those Zealot tanks are powerful and are not to be underestimated.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
I thank the Empire for their assistance. Be assured, your kindness will not be forgotten. Our conflict is to begin shortly, so we are inviting an ambassador from your government to Mirfak to establish and maintain communications with you as events progress. We value the virtues of peace and unity, and it is with the greatest obligation that we recieve your help to realize them on our own world.
To vikan,
-Governor Pallanez

Greetings from Xeraph!

I would like to propose, #1: that Xeraph join this alliance.
#2: That this Covenant Alliance in turn become a member of the "mega-alliance" The Empire of One. This alliance is currently comprised of over 100 nations, and growing. Each member is co-equal with all the others. One nation...one vote. This alliance was created to counter the growing "mega-alliances" of the NWO and the RWC. There may one day be a showdown, but it far in the future. Pleas TG or post your reesponse.

respectfully,

Alaric...Emperor of Xeraph
Councilor Prime of GAPTS
7th Lord of AXE
Master of the Knights Templar (EX)
Co-Regent of The Empire of One

Mirfak has no objection to this merging, and supports whatever decision the Imperial Albinoism government makes on the matter.

Great. The Official Eo1 building can be found here (http://s8.invisionfree.com/The_Empire_of_One/index.php?) in Green Sun. May it last forever.
Xeraph
14-12-2004, 05:03
ATTENTION: Mirfak, Green Sun, Albinoism, Shazbotdom.

It has been suggested by Xeraph that the Covenant Alliance be added in it's entirety into the "mega-alliance" The Empire of One. Are all in this alliance agreed?
Mirfak
14-12-2004, 06:16
Be alerted that Albinoism is the only nation as yet in this alliance to my knowledge. Shazbotdom has made suggestions that they would join, Green Sun has made no request to join, and Mirfak has not yet joined. You should address yourself to the nation of Albinoism alone when discussing alliance matters. Of course, my knowledge is based solely on this board and telegrams we have recieved, and my information may be inaccurate.

The Covenant will join the mega-empire one one condition. We still govern ourselves. We will be part of the mega-empire but you will have no control over the Covenant. Also the Covenant wishes to be informed of all activities going on inside the mega-empire. Other than that I can't wait to become allies.

***OFFICIAL PROCLIMATION***
To: All Nations involved

I declined the invitation to join this alliance. Also, i am already part of 2 other alliances and don't wish to become a part of any others due to the fact that i don't need to be a part of any other alliances. The Empire officially states that we are NOT to become a part of this alliance

So wer're kind of a co-alliance, then. Fine. If I may, can I create a forum at the boards entitled Covenant of Nations?

All nations who are members of TEOO retain self-government. Each nation has a vote....all are equal. Thank you for joining The Empire of One.

Green Sun,

You can, if you wish to, create a forum for the Covenant. The main point of contact for all of the nations involved in TEOO will be the forum created for it.

OOC> Green Sun,TG The Burnsian Desert. I think they re-did the forum for TEOO.

We need more nations to join the Covenant. I am currantly looking for more. I suggest you do the same so we can become more 'persuasive'

Albinoism , the Dominion of Aquix wishes to join your Covenant. We would also like to know more about these Beetle tanks before we make any purchases.

You will receive protection from other nations in the Covenant if you are in trouble. Also we will share technologies and not withhold anything. We don't buy these technologies from those in the Covenant. We simply share them.

Xer, he wants to have 2 seperate alliances working together. So, here's my deal:
The Empire of One will accept all your members as one of us and in return you must respect any member of the TEoO as one of the CoN. However, we will respect any decision if you don't want a particular nation becoming involved with your alliance.

And yes, Xer, I know he remade the forums.

This is acceptable. So far we have no objection to anyone joining.

((OOC: The XM8 is an experimental weapon, and that's its current name. When it's released for the military its name will be changed to the M-8 or the M-18.))

17-12-2004, 15:51
I actually didn't know that. Thanks. For now though we will call it the XM-8 to avoid any confusion.

Yes....in a simple example, think of TEOO as the "umbrella" alliance that includes all nations/alliances joining it. All nations/alliances that are members of TEOO are sovreign: TEOO does not require ANYTHING of the members except aid in the time of war. If there are trade issues, that's fine. Everyone is free to trade with everyone else.

I propose that the Covenant build its own military starship. I wish for all members to be part of this. Please put down any ideas for the ship (weapons, armor, size, etc.).

Titanium C armor in a honycombed fashon
Plasma bombs, plasma turrents, laser turrents, 50mm rail guns
Two shipboard AIs, one for weapons control, the other for navigation
9km long

These are just a few ideas.

Actually I think that could be helpful. So many people will be worried about lasers and that kind of thing that they will over look some of the modern weapons.
