Greetings,
On Sunday December 29th Elite Operations conducted an assault on the Lions Den base at Mort, with support elements of the Circle G. The fight lasted over six hours, starting from 3:00pm to 9:00pm CST. We managed to destroy 35-40 towers, however we could not take over the base, not because of Lions Dens guild, but because of the 20-30 clan allies that came to their support. We thank Circle G who helped take down the towers. Despite being flagged and rezz killed by clan in HOPE, they fought for the entire battle and we thank every neutral that chose to fight with us that day.
Elite Operations does not attack unless provoked. Outlined below are our reasons for the attack on Lions Den:
1. Lions Den, with assistance from the Anacarim Iron League, conquered Elite Operations’ outpost in Mort.
2. When contacted by Sware, the General of Lions Den, he conveyed to us that the attack was a grand mistake and they wanted to negotiate peace. Sware insisted that it was Omni misdirection that was to blame, however when asked who the responsible Omni individual(s) was he refused to give us names.
3. Sware offered to compensate us for the loss of land by assisting in an attack on an Omni outpost. We refused to be a party to his war, and insisted upon monetary compensation instead. He balked at our request and said that he would get back to us.
4. For over 3 weeks our diplomat Psikie was given the run around by Lions Den, it is clear they do not intend to honor their self-proclaimed desire for peace.
5. Lions Den’s tag and website declare that they are neutral friendly and honorable, however as their actions plainly reveal they do not live up to their statements.
It is clear that Lions Den is not an honorable guild by any definition, and their members are using spurious logic to support their claim to our land. This is reminiscent of the 1938 Munich accord between Nazi Germany and other European powers on old Terra, where Hitler denied his intentions to conquer Europe. I have more respect to the Omni Meister (Omni-Pol) and Argulace (MoK) as they took full responsibility for their actions when they took over a neutral outpost.
To Lions Den: Immediately remove all mention of “honorable” from your clan info; end your deceit; apologize unconditionally; claim full responsibility for your actions; and honor your word. Until Elite Operations is satisfied, we are at war.
Sumokan
President of Elite Operations
