I really don't know where you get any of this information you have because he's already expressed interest in meeting with Clan leadership. Last time I looked, we seem to be part of that.Originally Posted by Jacob Stroud
Instead of defining things for me, perhaps you should open a gridfeed once in a while and get some facts straight. The Council was no more organized among the clans last time it was recognized. Sure it was a bit larger but thats about it.Perhaps I need to define "executive power" for you. It is not a question of the Council being "there" for the Clans.
The Council walks a fine line. We don't make policy, we try to make clan life better and we do not pass laws for anyone to adhere to. It takes a person with a grasp on clan life to realize that...which is why you don't. ...and as far as passing laws goes, even i'd leave if they tried passing laws that directly affected my Clan.That point is irrelevant anyway. Landau may talk big about supporting the idea of the meetings, but if the Council granted itself the power to pass laws over the Clans his position would reverse so fast it will leave you dizzy. Of course, if the Council declined to grant itself those powers you would continue to have the Unionist's support, but Omni-Tek would refuse to meet with you.
I sort of figured that out.Dealing with Omni-Tek is not like negotiating with your fellow clansmen in the Council...blah blah blah
*applauds*And even if you, Captain Gorslin, could come to understand that, it wouldn't do you much good. Radiman understood which buttons to push, he knew how to put Omni-Tek on the ropes, but what is he today? A pathetic old man desperately trying to patch together his shattered legacy before he shuffles off to the grave. And the beauty of it is, it wasn't Omni-Tek that lead to his downfall, but rather his own "fellow" clansmen. It was the Red Freedom movement and the Council of Ares that set him up for the fall; all the Dust Brigade did was give a little push at the end and Omni-Tek's hand was forced. If you try to walk down the same path you will meet the same fate.
I don't necessarily agree with Henry Radiman, personally.. but it might suprise you to learn that he was the one that asked us to meet with Zora. He may be still pushing buttons for all we know. After reviewing every scrap of information I could find on the subject (NOT including "History 101" by Omni Reform or "Nevvers guide to History"), I can't agree with you that the clans set him up. ..but we're not here to debate that.
