Vosun Voth surrender

With the Bolitic warfleet now just 3 days away from Vosun and a second ambush attempt failing according to VVSE reports (18 ships attacked the Bolitic fleet and got badly beaten up) the VVSE government have said to the Bolitic that they surrender completely and have asked the Bolitic for their terms.

The Bolitic Emperor Aliowaki has ordered his forces to cease attacks on the VVSE but his fleet are continuing to advance and will enter the Vosun system. He has issued his terms for surrender and they are brutal.

• 7 VVSE planets including the border systems of Telun 60, Ramman and Vang will be demilitarised and handed over to the Bolitic Confederarcy. Vosun populations will be allowed to leave.
• 50 billion zarks will be paid in tribute, 35 billion immediately and the rest paid over the next 2 years. The total treasury of the VVSE is thought to be around 22 billion so coming up with this cash might be a problem.
• The VVSE Royal Family will stand down and be replaced by a selected General, Aliowaki will reserve the right to veto the selection.
• 10 ships from the remaining VVSE fleet will be handed over to the Bolitic plus information on the technologies used.

The VVSE have been given 3 days to respond (i.e. the time it will take for the Bolitic fleet to reach orbit around Vosun) and Aliowaki has said there is no room for negotiation.
