***Broadcast to all factions***
"The University have accepted the surrender of the Hive. However, this surrender does not come without a price - the three Hive bases occupied by the University will remain under University control.
The good Governor's concerns are not unjustified - however, we hope that she will not degenerate her diplomatic stance toward us. Tensions had been growing on the Hive border for quite some time now, and we felt it was justifiable action to strike first before we, the University, suffered a similar fate.
The Gaian citizenry can rest assured that they will not be attacked by our jets. Relations have so far been good between our two factions, and we have no desire for that to change.
Also, you need not fear the deployment of x-weapons - although the majority of our jets have been fitted with nerve gas pods, this is purely for security, and we have neither the desire nor the intention of gassing other humans. The Gaian units in Hive bases have been left alone, and Manufacturing Warrens has been left unharmed. It is hoped that the good Lady's daughter is returned safely to Gaian territory, without harm.
We hope this can be the beginnings of a new and peaceful era in the history of humanity, and that the great war of 2241 may be confined to the vaults of history. Our attention must now focus on the menace of our alien neighbours - the Usurpers, for they collectively pose the biggest threat to mankind as a whole."
Regards,
Provost Mark13, from University HQ in University Base
