The Australian Military Intelligence Secret Service (AMISS) has uncovered a plot by the Roman government to terrorise Australian citizens with biological weapons!  The Roman tyrant's insidious insinuations of impending disaster for Australia resulted in Operation Revelation, which eventually uncovered the sinister plot. Actual details of when and where were sketchy, so a pre-emptive strike was deemed the only safe solution.
Despite our best efforts to pave the way for our nuclear missiles, some were destroyed in flight, although the vast majority found their targets. There were many other conventional battles, with overwhelming Australian victories indespersed with rare Roman victories. The great Roman capital, Rome, is now under control of victorious Australian troops, and contains fantastic wonders of the ancient and modern worlds.
The search is now on to find any secret caches of biological weapons, although there is no telling how much was detroyed in the nuclear attacks.
Finally, let the great Australian leader, Don Bradman II, assure his allies that they are indeed safe, and they should feel free to expand into the former Roman territories to overcome their problems of overcrowding. Also, they should feel free to capture any Roman cities they see fit.

More pollution now, for less later  Never mind, Paul. Lung's violent ways will surely be nullified in Civ3 if what i've read so far is anything to go by

merde! 
What a bunch of tree-hugging, hand-holding, peaceniks we have in Australia! The whingers are all sad because i dropped a few dozen nukes on the Romans Like, as if anyone cares for the Romans
Perhaps i misread the cryptic bird messages after all! I expected the unhappiness to come from some dastardly BirdBrain act, but alas it was to come from my own actions As a result, most military production was immediately halted to build temples and theatres and other crap to appease the traitors  They should be glad that i'm saving them from the Roman threat! Furthermore, small cities, both Roman and Australian, were disbanded if sufficient levels of happiness could not be reached. God knows where i'm going to repatriate them all to, either.
As the use of nuclear missiles has proven detrimental, only one was used this turn The great Roman city of Rome was completely destroyed, destroying an impressive number of War Walkers in the process. The great wonder of contraception was also destroyed, which shouldn't be a great loss for Rome, as, by the way Romans have been reproducing like rabbits, it seems they never used it
It looks like being a long and bloody war, with the Romans opting to unwisely fight to the death. A number of scout parties were destroyed by nuclear missiles, setting back invasion plans somewhat, but the noose has still tightened considerably in a short period of time. We shall soon see how large a stockpile of nuclear weapons the Romans have left. Soon the Roman dictator will have nowhere to hide

Oh, no!! I'VE DOOMED US ALL!!!
Who would have thunk it! A few (dozen) measly nukes, and the world goes from 28 turns to disaster to ZERO!!
I hope you blokes can swim
I must admit, i didn't realise just how severe the consequences of nuclear war were, because i never lasted this long I don't know what happens next, but i guess all of our coastal cities go swimming with the fishies, which pretty much destroys everything!  Between all of us, i don't think that there are many land-locked cities, each of us only having a handful. It remains to be seen who comes out of this the best. I only hope that in fairness, we are all affected proportionately to the size of our empires. I don't want a repeat of DMM1.1.2, where Keygen lost all of his cities while everyone else was unaffected. I don't think you guys would let me take the game back a couple of turns to retrospectively avoid disaster like Keygen did in that game  Oh well, at least it solves my problem of dedicating too much time to this game with my impending marriage
*switches to meglomaniac's hat*
The Roman scourge has finally been evicted from the Australian continent, while Ebacarum also joins the glorious Australian Fascist state! Many more Roman soldiers met their maker in many battles across the world, as Australian fascists continued towards their destiny of Roman domination.
In other diplomatic news, Germany continued their non-aggressive stance, consistent with their apparent isolationist policy, while the Dutch nation seems to have taken the same stance, obviously remembering their disasterous attempts at war in the past. Don Bradman II respects their respective decisions to stay out of the war, presumably in the knowledge that this war is the settling of differences older than time itself.

Pretty tough in this post-apocalyptic world, ain't it, Tweety! I notice that pollution litters the entire planet, with satellite photos showing mass destruction as a result of pollution as much in German territory as as in Australian and Roman. To be honest, i can't figure out how pollution works in CTP, as i have massive pollution levels in cities which their city screens claim only light pollution! Do we just stop dropping nukes, or do we have to clean up the dead tiles as well? If it's the latter, even the Dutch scientists optimistic forecast of catastrophe in 3 years is not sufficient time to fix the problem.
Max, just make sure you don't sell off your recycling plants At least now we're not doomed for at least a couple of turns!
I am going away, and will not get home to play my turn tonight, but i might be back tomorrow. Max, if you haven't seen a post from me in 24 hours or so, please send my turn to Mobius.

Obviously there's not much happening in the Netherlands with Paul receiving, opening, playing, closing, sending, and posting all within eight minutes
Meanwhile, in war news.....
The noose tightens around the collective Roman neck, with another 6 Roman cities falling to the might of the Australian fascist forces. Roman casualties were heavy, while Australian casualties were restricted to a couple of ships and fighter jets. Australian troops are now attacking on four fronts in order to spread the risk of Roman nuclear counter-strike, yet all four are making significant headway. Many of the Roman cities are now isolated from each other, with the main Roman industrial centres nearly exposed to their eventual occupation.
Despite numerical inferiority, roman troops have repeatedly suffered tactical losses, with their forces being continually outmanouvered.
The only hope for Roman salvation seems to lie in global catastrophe, with Australian scientists again predicting that catastrophe is nigh, being expected within the year! However, Roman scientists are predicting 18 years, presumably in a feeble attempt to justify their outrageous pollution.
There is still hope. Australian scientists have developed what they call "eco-transit", which has successfully been implemented in the Australian city of Utrecht, resulting in the seemingly impossible - negative pollution! This breakthrough has resulted in great strides being done to eliminate the global threat of worldwide flooding. When Rome is finally conquered, Australia will be able to eliminate all significant pollution and save the world from the threat of self-destruction from pollution. First we will save the world from Roman tyranny, then we will save the world from environmental disaster 
With Australian troops now entrenched on the Roman mainlands, conquest of Rome is inevitable.
