Turn received and sent to Hive.
---
Other than those three faction whose comsignals we received at the start, there appear no other survivors of the Unity on the Planet. I wonder if that power-mad gunchick survived the landing, not to mention my former superior, that wrinkly old professor.
We are already one step further to global peace on this planet, since all other known leaders have agreed to not spend our time killing each other. I'm glad our hopes have prevailed, even if that meant I had to engage in a friendly show-duel of a first-person shooter. Oh well, for such higher goals as a mutual treaty, I was willing to take part in such barbaric rituals (while having to abstain from our highly civilized dance&conversation&other-things-evening).
On a totally different aspect, we discover more and more of the planet and the true nature of that ever-dominant 'fungus' around us. Transport over it becomes more and more difficult, and we have spotted a life-form that is totally unlike we have seen so far. Fortunatly, our biologists managed to tame that bundel of worms and bring it under control, before it could do our valient scouts any permanent damage. It remains to be seen that what it can do for us.
We have also discovered signs of a former civilisation upon Chiron. Judging from the traces it left, it must have been highly sophisticated. Our research crew still takes probes from those enourmous holes in the surface, but most of the heat generated from them is lost, due to our inability to convert it.

Turn to Morgan
_____
In a shockingly un-normal behavior, Eternal Spark offically changed his title from "Chairman" to "First Citizen".
"We're all citizens of the Hive, with equalness for all. I founded the Hive, so I'm first. The last great leader to use this title 'First Citizen" was Augustus of Ancient Rome, and we all know how well he ruled."
In other news, a unity pod nearby The Hive has shown us something VERY interesting, and according to a techie "pretty damn awesome".

Turn to Everyone's favorite Monopolist 
BTW, I recently was able to install SMAC on the computer I use for the internet... is anyone willing to maybe play an hour or so of turns in IP? Is that even possible? Just thinkin'...

"My People, this year has been very exellent for our peoples. Allow me to tell you the joys and interesting things which have occured in this year:
1) First off, we were at first pleased to have located our first native life form. Approaching it carefully, our military unit, bravely made his precence known to the worm. The worm became agressive, despite our soldiers constantly repeating "We're allied with the only {bleep}ing faction that cares about you! Stop attacking" many times. Unfortunately, the worm realized it's misunderstatement and was about to join our side, when it tripped over a hardened patch of fungus, breaking its... neck and dying. We apologize to the Gaian community for not being as enlightened as themselves to be able to capture the worm without it's death.
2) The far-off PeaceKeeping faction, which recently signed a friendship with Ourselves, will be recieving a quid-pro-quo tech transfer idea. We most happilly await any and all responses!
3) Sadly, no comment from Morgan. Whatevah. His loss.
4) The "Hivin' Stomp" dance has not only infected our bases with its noxious (yet just so wonderfully enjoyable) dance beat, but a few other bases on other factions as well. Cool, ain't it?
5) Whoever wrote "Sparky likes taking Lady joar in da ass" in fecal matter better come back and clean it up before JoeR finds out about it! Cuz I mean, we're pretty good friends and I don't want that crap (literally and figuratively) on Our Bases!

Turn to Hive.
Ack, it looks like I'm in a totally screwed strategic position. With all those factions surrounding me, I gotta up my defense big time, which means I will seriously lag in other aspects.
And there's no way I can just expand the way I want to (and the way some other folks here can), so my efficiency bonus is moot. Oh well, let's see what we can make of this.
BTW, I used the map information that's given at the end when you reload a saved game and just end it. I assume that's not illegal or unethical, and I know Spark's been doing it, so I thought it was fair to notify the other players of it (in case they haven't done it so far).
On another note, we're already on our second page...I think as the first post-ACT20-game. Keep on rocking (or maybe it's just our major spam!)

(This ain't a turn send)
I didn't plan on fidning this out... I was having save game problems which was crashing the game after a move was made... and then, I decided to quit the game, maybe that would conk out the bugs and I found the replay feature... plus, the "unity survey" option was NOT on in this game, so I had no way of knowing I was on an island or a strip of land...
The "unity wreakage" you speak of, TC, is a SMACX feature, yes?. Smac can't do that. With the options provided, I had no way to see the map otherwise.
I believe it was wrong of me to do this, because it would require you to quit and restart the level. I did it to attempt to save this game, which kept crashing. I didn't even remember about the replay option. I think it should be wrong. (If there is a way to view the replay without having to quit, it should be allowed, though)
Sorry to have caused so much grief
