==The British Claim Derby, The EF disputes==
On August 21st, the British representative Sam Bellamy, claimed Derby as part of the British Empire and named himself Town Administrator. He proceeded to offer terms to the Eastern Federation members concerning surrendering their town.

As quickly as the proposal came, Robzombie, the Captain of the 1st Derby Privateers, disputed the claim saying that when the empire exiled him the Queen said it was not the Empire's intent to claim Shartak. He also defies the British claim shortly after by saying: "I'll not have the Empire take Derby while I'm still around to protect it."

Several other prominent Eastern Federation members displayed similar thoughts concerning the British.

Kilshrek, current Leader of the Derby Hospitallers, was initially quiet. But he said only one line, which captures his entire meaning.
"Lets toss that tea off the docks!" was what he said in reference to the Boston Tea Party, where protesters proceeded to literally throw crates of tea into the ocean. The tea was supposed to be exported to the British mainland and caused quite a stir in its time.

Elegost, the current Commander of the Derby Rangers, in contrast to Kilshrek, had much to say concerning this proposal. He challenged the British claim by asking if they had any troops to backup the claim. The last sentence of his statement was "I vehemently object and I do solemnly swear to declare war on you."

Madpierre, a Scottish pirate of the Privateers, threatened Sam Bellamy concerning the take-over. He warned that his Scottish boots would find its way into Bellamy's bowels. He also said that the "free Scotsmen of Shartak will have no truck with shirt-lifting panty-waist lickspittles such as yourself [Sam Bellamy]. Feel free to send your redcoat toadies [the British] but make sure each comes accessorised with his own personal coffin."

Mill Wilkinson hinted at a possibility of forming a rebel group against the British. Fiuvv, a Derby Ranger, was shouting "FREEDOM! FOREVER! and DEATH BEFORE SURRENDER!" in protest to this declaration.

G3N, a pirate who works with the 1st Derby Privateers had reservations about the tossing of tea due to the possibility of profits by selling the tea.

A wanted criminal and former Privateer, Cold Seether, gave his opinion before he disappeared into the woods. He said that the British can't run a colony without Lobsterbacks or the infamous red-coated infantry.

It is apparent that most of the Eastern Federation, the current group leading the defences of Derby, has no intentions of letting the British grab Derby away from them to be turned into a colony.
