On the top at his power, Hasdrubal stood in the studychamber, where Hannibal died. A day he now felt was ages ago. He took a look over "his" city Emperors Rest. And smiled.
From a relative small nation, he had rosen a mighty military power. Great it was. It had conquered the spanish colonies on the mainisland - it have knowledge of a terrifying weapon, actually one was build - his army, his navy and his airforce. A spaceship. All more than he had expected, when he was "only" the brother of Hannibal and a simple general.
Of course, it is very expensive to keep such a military force - but it was "his" and he had the will to find the money. He had a very effensive corps of tax-collectors and agents throughout the nation.
And it was from one of those informers, that Hasdrubal later would learn, that someone he had called a foolish young rebel, was back in Phoenicia.
But that's a different story.

It is true that we struck first, but we only struck one thing, a spy. We have encountered Spanish spies many times before and just gave them a kick in the ass. But this time we decided to shoot him on the spot. What angered us about this particular fellow was that he stole a tech from us. He could have asked.
We too do not want war but hey what can I say we want revenge for a Spanish over-reaction to our killing his thieving spy. btw.. it seemed to me after a turn or two of searching it was heading in the direction of the Egyptians.
As for being top dog, (.. which totally baffles this little canuck, I guess I must be doing something right)i'm not aggressive in the slightest and willing to share my good fortune with all of you. If this stupid game had better diplomacy I would gift you all wine, women and song.

"Hasdrubal - Sir!
One of my agents has just informed me, that Hamilcar IS active on our mainisland. He found a document, calling for a meeting bewteen some "unknown" and Hamilcar. Problem is, this meeting was several days ago."
"Find him - and by the way General. Did you read these notes from our beloved neighbours?"
"Oh yes, my great leader. I have. If I should answer, I would say this:
Don't hesitate - make it clear. A spy's work is an act of war and should be considered as that. But strike hard - full scale attack, not those small nothings"
"Yes my general, this is what you should do. Only now, Hamilcar is OUR spy - we have an internal problem. Do your job, and do it well.
If you cannot get information about Hamilcar, punish the whole town, that had covered him for so long!"
