News Release
Sparta Command – MY 2177 :
UN Peacekeepers declare Vendetta on the Spartan Federation
Shortly after daybreak, Commissioner Lal declared Vendetta on the Spartan Federation.
The origins are somewhat unclear. PK units had been rummaging around the outskirts of a Spartan base, and the base Governor, with the approval of the Arcadian Regional Administrator, Lt Colonel Kassiopeia, and the Commanding Officer, CRYPTEIA, Colonel Googlie, sent special forces operatives to interrogate the miscreants. They were induced to change allegiance to the Federation, whereupon the Commissioner pronounced Vendetta on the Federation
Spartan Federation responds with overwhelming force
In response to the Peacekeepers declaration of vendetta, Colonels Googlie and Maniac authorized the immediate deployment of units of the Spartan famed Elite Rapid Response Brigade.
Supported by Impact and Missile penetrators of Sparta Air Command, nearby vessels of the Spartan Navy, CRYPTEIA agents, and several divisions of amphibious mobile forces, an invasion was launched, resulting in the capturing and annexing of the following four Peacekeeper bases:- UN Headquarters
- UN High Commission
- UN Planning Authority
- UN Great Refuge
Peace terms were offered to Commissioner Lal, but he refused.
The Federation will vigourously pursue operations against the remaining Peacekeeper bases, and by proclamation is laying claim to the entire Arcadian continent as falling under the Spartan Federation’s sphere of influence
End of release

Snoddasmannen looked out over his new desk.
He liked the former Peacekeeper territories, he liked the way they were run. Plenty of paperwork to hide behind. There were always review boards, evaluations, committees, layers upon layers of administration. The red tape ran from here to Sparta Command, to Fort Superiority and back here again, without anybody really knowing why.
Snoddasmannen was a high ranking officer, but nobody could ever quite bring to mind what his main responsibilities were. Nor could they remember exacly which unit he commanded, or what that famous battle was which he had participated in. But they would always see him at the meetings, and the conferences, and on the friday evening socials.
He grabbed a batch of papers from his desk. It happened to be a coordination plan outlining the synergy effects of merging two branches of the Arcadian communication network maintenance administration. He held them in his right hand and proceeded to walk purposefully down the hall, pretending to read them.
'For brunch', he thought, 'I am going to try the Iaci sallad.', and turned a sharp right towards the rec commons.

Snoddasmannen's post prompted me to think about wheather or not factional bases you've conqured (but not yet assimulated as indicated by the city graphics) retain their factional benefits (and more importantly) their factional penalties?
