University Inter-Factional Broadcast:

Atlantean diplomatic and political nonsense continue to endanger the planetary factional safety programs. Providing a pact mate's enemy with superior military technology is considered an indirect hostile action and attempting to bluffing peaceful intentions by agreeing to sign a pact. Political and formal numbness seem to override humanitarian principles within the Atlantean government... this is outrageous! Doctor Rubin advises Captain Sankis to beware the ice cold, diplomatic, Atlantean knife ready to stab the Pirate leader in the back!

Diplomatic tensions increase!

Internal governmental resumé from the Atlantean Prime Minister, partly leaked before the official announcement of his resignation:

"Once again the Palace steps upon the legitimate actions of it's own government. Showing it's 'displeasure' at the wimp of foreign powers who, next to having no rights dictating our external decisions, also cover the wrongdoings of an other faction towards the Gaians by using stealthed probes on them. It is a shame that we are ordered to endorse aforementioned actions by disengaging our ties with our longlasting Treaty partners the Gaians who have, as far as plain common sense tells us, never have done anything wrong. The Palace even hides under disguise of the war effort it's intention of stepping upon civil rights and the Constitution by forcing a Planned economy on us all, in so alienating the Gai">static<...

Důlaman Sight, Royal Broadcast Network - MY 2196.2302

**************************************************

Naval Command has reported that after a succesfull boarding
action followed by a fierce naval battle near the Trios Archipel
the whole of the Hive navy has been destroyed or taken as
prize ships. This succes safeguards our homes at the Hiverian
coastline and ensures that our transports, marines and patrol
ships can move as they see fit.

Several skirmishes occured between our forces on the continent
against Hive rovers. All of these incursions were repulsed and
the enemy troops destroyed or taken prisoner.

On the domestic front reports the Terraform Department the loss
of 2 seaformers with all hands to a native sealurk. Our navy was
unable to intercept the creature and it is feared that in the future
new victims will fall for it.

Footage shows our battered, but victorious, fleet and the native pest.

Queen Elevea of Atlantis requests if there is the possibility for permission of landing a Thunderhawk-class chopper in the base of Deadman Tavern or Crown's Nest. The flight plan is to use one of these bases as a refuel stop on the way to The Spot.

Four of Rubin's aircraft have been turned over to the Data Angels.

Nautilus Officals announce several key victories in the fight against the Gaian scourge, including landing of the Nautilus "Buccaneer" Class Marines in a key Gaian City. One Nautilus pilot and one marine was lost in the fighting.

Turn to the Data Angels, one reload due to crash ( I hope I get a new PC soon )

Can't wait for the next turn!

The Eye Network - MY 2197.2302

Despite the valiant defense of the northwestern sector by the forces under the command of General Antwone Hawkes and the Atlantean Expeditionary Forces over last several years, Alphaville and Secret Hollow in the Borehole Cluster region has fell to the Hivean menace. There are unconfirmed reports of atriocities that were committed by the Hivean forces against civilians of those bases including committing certain individuals into punishment spheres.

The nation mourns the great loss of those brave men and women but not for long since the battle for the Spot is about to begin.

Datajack Aeolus has personally expressed his most heartfelt condolences and sincere gratitudes to the Royal Family and the people of the seafaring Altantis. The split blood of courageous Altantean troops has run intermixed with those of the Angels. This only serve to strengthen the blood bond between two nations. The Angels will never forget their ulimate sacrifice and will strive to honor them. There was a ceremony with full military honors held for the war dead of both peoples.

In other news, due to a coordinated efforts by Angels' new Pact Brother, Sankis of the Nautilis, four squads of missile needlejets from the University were transferred safely to the port base of Safehouse.

Those pilots have inflicted losses upon Hivean units which hopefully will slow down their advance toward the Spot. They will be soon joined by the Angels' newly created aircrafts which is expected to come off the production lines soon....


Toole's Corner
My dear friends, you must have heard the terrible news about the fall of our bases in the Borehole Cluster region. This has been a long and difficult war for us but we cannot stop and give up. There were rumors that the Chairman Yang recently offered to stop the war if our government was to share some of our research secrets. It does not matter if this is true or not - the madman will not rest until his empire has reached Panama Canal!

Do not lose heart. Yes, the fall of our bases are a terrible news but we must remember how our men and women fought hard along with our brothers and sisters from the Sea. Instead of despairing we must look up to them as an example and honor their efforts by fighting on!

Even as we are speaking, the world are becoming increasingly united against the Menace. Even Yang's own pact brother, the Pirates, are helping us by assisting the Planetary Governor in transferring his aircrafts to our military. The royal marines of the noble Altantean nation are making advances against the Hive on their western boundaries. We all have heard about how there were a great yet terrible naval battle in the theater of Trios Archipel in which our friends emerged victorous. This enbodes well for our war effort!

If you still feel the dark tentacles of despair reaching into your soul, let this fortify you. The Madman has insulted us all by renaming New Ciba City to 'Hole of Aspiration.' This is an indignation we cannot tolerate! The act itself demostrate a complete disregard for our people by the Hive. For this reason alone we cannot give up or we would be treated worse than slaves in the Hivean empire. Can you imagine your loved ones being nervestapled? This is what Yang will do to them!

Fight on, my friends, fight on!

First time I experience this: I have a working unit in a base which belongs to the Hive now (Barinthus' former Borehole Cluster base), but it does not have free view of the tiles around it.

Does anyone know what is possible now? A crash? Can I obliterate this base now? I prefer to leave the turn as it is until I have more information...

Regarding the "stray unit" I noticed that Yand mind-controlled one of the two seized Angel bases (it was the northernmost base). Perhaps the covert operation triggered a special "feature" (read " bug") in the game.

I suggest the unit is obliterated or transfered to Yang (I would prefer to eliminate the unit in order to avoid any further "features"). That seems most in line with recent events.

So, in your experience, this is unheard of?

I might just decide to take the base out then.

Brave Atlantean commando's managed to escape from mindcontrol and were able to take out the device afterwards. Stuff like that...

Again, Atlantean forces report succes on all fronts. Unfortunately a punishment action against one of the most recent Hiverian conquests has resulted in the disbanding of a settlement.

Sankis, I 'freed' you of a native nuisance over there.
Hope this is sufficient payment for transgressing your airspace.

I have kept a turn in reserve regarding the 'stray' unit. Just in case there's a majority decision on this.

I learned this trick from Rubin. Use the [name] and {name} brackets. You got red and green names by that. Variations are possible, you could have the normal color mixed with the green or red for sure. Haven't tested for the red and green together yet.

Summarization of reports intercepted from Angels military communications.

Four needlejet squads from the University has been of a valuable asset to their military efforts. They were able to inflict great damage upon the Hivean invasion force but however in the thick of the action, one squad was completely destroyed. Angels are expecting to launch their first 'homegrown' needlejet squad soon.

A former detachment hidden in a xenofungal patch was discovered by a Hive missle squad. Those civilians defended themselves very well, bringing the attacker's strength down to 40% before being overwhelmed themselves.

A scout unit is reported missing. Suspecions are that it was destroyed by a wild mindworm mass.

A column of Hivan missile squads was found travelling down the road from Alphaville to the Spot. Angels have recently formed their first silksteel sentinel unit and is dispatching it to the Spot. Their military engineers hope that the new silksteel technology will help them to prevail against the upcoming assault.

Report complied by Captain Buckler of 34th Probe Team, location of operations - classified

The University reports significant losses to gaian aerial assault on University mainland. Deirdre has declared war and Doctor Rubin is preparing for a full scale retaliation.

Also, the Peacekeepers have finally seized control of the precious Manifold Nexus.
