2187 to Aredhran.
Why did i bring this up ?
Actually my sleep was horrible tonight. My poor cat is seriously sick, probably (rat) poisoned, so i did not sleep a lot. Explains the 84 typos in the 3 lines of diplomacy to JT, as well. I'm not kidding

Lord Zod stood solemly on the dais and spoke in hushed tones.
"We were very deliberate in our considerations. Above all we sought to make a decision that would promote peace on Chiron. Our very good friend Chairman Flomise has proven himself to be a man of honor. We respect his restraint in the face of the recent unprovoked and unjustified attack on his foil, that we are convinced was simply engaged in a peaceful moonlight cruise".
Monica watched with distainful eyes, shaking her head once before she caught herself.
"The Gaian people have no interest in conflict and we must denounce the CEO for this dreadful action."
Zod looked like a man about to cry.
"Nevertheless, we feel tensions are such that it would be difficult for the Chairman to assume the role of Planetary Governorship. The Governor must be neutral and bears the primary responsibility for intervening in times of crisis.
Therefore, we continue to support Brother Animus and beseech him to spare no expense nor opportunity to resolve this issue in the name of Planetary Peace".
Zod sadly turned and exited the dais.
As they were leaving she whispered into his ear, "So, Animus came through?"
Zod smiled and patted her cheek. He leaned over and whispered back, "the fool paid through the nose, and thinks he got a bargin".
She snorted once, and then regained her composure.
Zod's security chief asked,"Where to Boss"?
"We are off to Mt. Planet for a holiday. Please see to the arrangements."
Monica wondered why she was stuck with a man who, with his pockets stuffed with credits, thought Mt. Planet the best venue for celebration.
In the shadows, the Hive agent watched without pity. Behind him, unseen, the Morganite hovered.
And time passed on Chiron.

Preemptive simultaneous broadcast on all communication channels.
CMN Messenger Service has been asked to perform its duties in forwarding a message
"...for the CEO, who is busy with his war council...",
in which he intends
"...denouncing the despicable sneak attack and praying for worldwide economic sanctions against the Chairman."
The Service, being neutral, can't deny forwarding of the message as it is, abstaining from confirming or denying its contents in any way.
-----
An issue about the legality of a move is being currently examined. Original statute and proceedings must be attentively parsed.
This could possibly, but, according to rumours, unlikely, lead to the replay of current turn.
The leaders will be informed ASAP, as the decision will get embedded in the games rules for the rest of it.
Considering the unavailability of the CEO during this workweek, I would advise to hold the play.

What the devil is going on? The suspense is killing me. Which churn arrived where?
To whom has what occured and when?
And how come?
????????????????????????????????????????????
If the CEO is unavailable, from whence did his statement eminate. And whose messenger service is being involved in the affairs of Chiron?

iirc, Aredhran is on hold because of 2 weeks of military service. A small price to pay to be trilingual (Swiss) 
the churn would be the war between a certain triggerhappy CEO and one altruistic Chairman. It broke out after a Hive bombardment of the spy foil that sabotaged our peaceful tourist cruise ship merely collecting fungus 2 years ago.

2191 to fieldmarshall aredhran
Maybe the pactbrothers, supposedly concerned about planetary peace and stability, would consider helping me out with some technology. After subverting a foil of the coastguard, the vile ceo aredhran ordered the execution of the human crew, and replaced it by his robot minions. He also replaced the auxiliary laser system of our rescue vessel with a battery of missile launchers. The researchers, busy with the development of new terraforming techniques, did not even think such a devastating weapon system a possibility on the resource poor planet. As you all know, my prosperous and peaceful Hive does not have a single unit with particle weapons under arms.
Please, in the name of mankinds future, help us against the unprovoked attacks of this megalomaniac energy-shark by supplying my stalwart defenders with much needed technological advances.

All,
I would like to respond to Flo's letter, but I just don't have the time right now. Hopefully, I will be able to sometime this evening (EST).
In the meanwhile, turn sent to Zod.

To my fellow leaders Chairman Flomise, CE0 Aredhran, and Governor Animus:
I pray you all remeber the events that unfolded prior to the death of Captain Garland. At that time, we all agreed to work together to circumvent the evil intentions of Miriam, the Provost and the evil Spartan seductress. [read: agressive AI]
How soon we have forgotten! As we each has prospered, old threats have faded from our minds. While the Chairman has been able to maintain resonable relations with the Bible thumpers, by and large, there has been no cooperation between these three and the more humane factions that we represent.
There will be a reckoning.
I ask each of the present combatants to pause, and to give us an opportunity to reason together for the common good, and to seek peace on Planet.
Let us be wise men and recognize that the true enemy is not within, but lurks there in the shadows. In the white and the black, and the witches orange.

I have never experienced the meteor strike, but I heard of it. Now I've seen something in this nowhere game just a strange and for me unheard of!
This may raise a ruckus. Maybe Moses will have to come down off the mountain and parse it together.

Turn Complete.
Lord Zod revealed today that he has hopes that a general war can be averted.
"If this conflict can not be contained, all Chiron is at great risk of destruction", Zod was quoted. "Surely Flomise and Aredhran are aware of the ramifications of allowing this minor dispute to continue. There is true evil on Chiron, and I pray that we stop this petty bickering and focus on those that would enslave us all."
Although Zod did not name Miriam, it is widely agreed that a Spartan/Believer plot is behind this sudden shift in global politics.
"We must stop and think, lest we approach blindly the edge of darkness..."
Zod was also quoted as saying that assessing blame for the incidents is unnecessary and that reparations are silly. "We must be men and move away from these things...towards hope."
