In response to desperate pleas from Markite citizens, elite Spartan tractor divisions are moving into Morgan territory to offer their protection to the population. Unofficial statements from farming leaders suggested that a change of government would be necessary to ensure the security of the territory.

OK, well plan A didn't work, so plan B is to sabotage everyone's e-mail accounts to ensure that I don't see this turn for at least another couple of weeks.

Markite official announcement:

The CEO would like to offer a warm thank you to Plantswoman Misotu, and will be only too happy to offer the requested technology, Gene Splicing, as compensation for your troubles.

A change of government will follow shortly, the Free Market stance proving most impractical for warring purposes.

--------------

Also, I urge you to vote for Plantswoman Misotu in the forthcoming Spartan elections. She has beaten off Colonel Santiago for an astonishing 77 years thus far, and, in that time, has shaped the Spartan faction into a formidable planetary force. You know it makes sense.

Elite Believer zealots marched into Riverside today, after brushing aside the energy fattened defenders. Also elite Believer special forces succeeded in their missions, although the exact nature of the missions are classified we can tell you that they will hamper the Morganites ability to wage war.

Splendid campaign leaflet Mark.

*****************************************
Official Spartan Announcement

Although preoccupied with her seedlings, Plantswoman Misotu took time out to make a rare public appearance. Looking frail and somewhat soiled in her old green gloves, she said:

"There appears to be a misunderstanding. The change of government we had in mind was more radical than the one proposed by the CEO. I urge Markite citizens to cast their vote for me - and my elite tractors - in the forthcoming elections to be held in Markite territory."

The statement was characteristically short. Walking back to her greenhouse, the Plantswoman was heard to mutter "Who on earth is Santiago?"

Markite official announcement:

Although we may be in a somewhat precarious position, we will fight to the death, through thick, thin and thinner. It is not over yet, citizens. But for now, the Markites must fight as one nation, and, in conjunction with our good allies, the Gaians, wipe out this bible-bashing menace for good."

The Spartans are pleased to report that Markite citizens in Morgan Transport voted overwhelmingly for the Plantswoman this year. Unfortunately, the post-election celebrations were somewhat excessive, resulting in the destruction of the base.

We have discovered that the Markites are researching air power, an aggressive technology that has nothing to do with irrigation or other acceptable pursuits. Enraged Spartan citizens will defend themselves against this new threat.

Markite official announcement:

One of our glorious bases was liberated this year - temporarily, of course. Over the last couple of years we have come across increasingly disturbing news, but this is indeed a true measure of the true intent of the bible-bashing Believers. We regret to inform everyone that two 6x-1-10 nerve gas missile penetrators are currently in the production line. We urge the rest of planet to unite against this menace, and trust in the ability of said parties to do so.

Our people were dismayed to hear that the Markites have destroyed a base, rather than permitting their people to join the growing and ever-popular Spartan empire. "Our hearts bleed for the poor souls who perished" said the Plantswoman. "They were cut off in their prime, and needlessly deprived of Spartan farming techniques."

Elsewhere, Spartan diplomats called an election for planetary governor. We believe it is time for the Plantswoman to have more influence in global affairs. Evidently the current incumbent agrees, since he has already cast his vote for us. Must've been that Markite election pamphlet

An excerpt from a speech given earlier today at Gia's Landing by the Supreme Leader of Gai's Stepbrothers Noah Gai: "Today, fellow stepbrothers, we plant this Chivronian Oak in memory of our fallen commrade CEO Mark. Let this be a lasting reminder of his bravery and kindness towards our people and may his name burn forever in the memory of our people."

In other related news, Noah Gia, declared this week as National Gas Mask Awarness Week. Gas masks were distrubuted amongst the adults and children of Gia's Landing. Parents and teachers were then encouraged to demonstrate there uses with their children as well as participate in air raid drills. Spokes-stepbrother for Internal Affairs was quoted as saying,"This decade has been the most volital decade on Planet and with all these "would-be-Hitlers" running around we need to ensure the safety of our people, and ensure that we will enter this coming century with a proud face."
