Turn Tracking: IW1 (Ironwood 1)

[Radman]

Hi all:

Move 2231 on to Arborman. Sorry for the 2 reloads in the game. The first gave me a "Terranx.Icd" error notice. After reloading and retrying I got a "Axstart" error. Really crappy deal altogether!!! Anyway, sorry for the reloads.

Meanwhile . . .

============================

The Cyborg rover force entered Hallowed Ground after clearing the city of the remnants of all Spartan resistance. Spartan forces quickly counterattacked with elite missile rovers destoying the bulk of the expeditionary force the Cyborgs had sent to the northern front. The Commander Smith knew he had overextended his forces without proper air support and paid the ultimate price. He knew this would not happen again to the Cyborg force as his miscalculation left the newly captured city open to a counter attack!

[Comstr]

A small Sparta counter attack was obliterated from the face of Planet from the Sky.

It is only a matter of time now. Sparta is doomed.



And now....A Post war conferance? What's Morgon been up to, he has refused to answer ANY commincaes for over 50 years now.

Hi all:

Move 2232 on to Arborman!

[Radman]

Hi all:

Move 2233 sent to Arborman!

Meanwhile . . .

==============================

Naval Captain Jones suddenly felt the ship beneath him rock and lurch forward. His immediate thought was 'what the hell is going on'. Just then "Captain, lookouts indicates University ship firing on our trawler!" "What? Are you sure?" responded the Captain angrily. [i]"Yes sir, absolutely. Its been confirmed!"

The Captain responded quickly "Send SOS and abandon ship. Contact rescue and give coordinates. Inform State Department we've been attacked by University forces!"

Later the same day, the Cyborg Secretary of State dictated a letter to the University Diplomatic Corp in care of the Provost.

"Provost Arborman:
We have reports from a Cyborg captain that their trawler in international waters sailing to Morgan Industrial was purposely attacked and sunk by University naval forces. Intelligence confirms the trawler was no where near any University cities or other forces. Please explain this action in the interest of peace between Pact brothers?

[Radman]

The Cyborg Secretary of State read the diplomatic communique just delivered from the UoP diplomatic station located in Alpha Prime. Although his instincts had lead his brain to another conclusion, he dictated a response indicating that after consultation with leader Cyborg Radman, they would accept the apology on the 'friendly fire' incident.

[Comstr]

Elsewhere, horrendes Peacekeeper causualties have been taken, allowing the CyberDomain to walk into two Spartan cities (That's FOUR ex-peacekeeper cities they now hold!).

Reduction of the remaining Sparta cities is expected to be quick and unmericful.

I wounded who's spy ship that was off my coast, though I do not understand what it was doing in the Trader's Straights so far south of Morgon.

Elsewhere that little ecofreak broke the pact that saved her life AND demanded high technology, WITHOUT payment. Grataitude...none! Bah. She'll regret that. Someday....

Hi all:

Move 2235 sent on to Arborman! Sorry for the re-load! The darn thing gave me a "Terranx.Icd" error once the game came up. Didn't even have a chance to move!

Meanwhile . . . .
===============================

The Secretary of State under order from Cyborg Radman, drafted a letter stating the Cyborg nation agreed with the suggestion put forth by Brother Comstr of the PK to have a conference between the allied leaders in war against the Spartans. Cyborg Radman hoped that the PK and UoP would agree with such a conference.

Cyborg Radman remembered ancient earth history associated with the Potsdam agreement after some conflict earth called 'WWII'. He wanted to avoid a chism that developed after the end of the conflict so the allies could each peacefully and beneficially help each other.

[arborman]

Turn to Comstar.

[Comstr]

Sparta WILL fall, probably within 10 years, possibly 15...there's a lack of roads out there in the wilderness.

[Radman]

Hi all:

Move 2236 on to Arborman!

Meanwhile . . .

=========================

"Make sure those diplomatic message got through to PK and UoP about the proposed allied conference proposed earlier by Brother Comstr! Cyborg Radman stated emphatically. "Yes sir, I'll check it again but earlier information indicates message sent." responded his Secretary of State.

[arborman]

Urgent discussions are going on in University chambers right now. Of course, Universities being the same everywhere, many critical decisions are lost in committees. We hope to have suitable responses prepared for all diplomatic entreaties within 2 years.

Turn to comstar

[Comstr]

Damm this mud! The complete faluire in Sparta to do useful things and build ROADS has slown down the advance to the last 3 Sparta Cities.

It is expected to take 10 years to complete this misson and objective to a satisfactiry outcome.

Peacekeeper command looks forward to peace and prospertity.

[Radman]

Hi all:

Move 2237 on to Arborman!

[Comstr]

Due to "pleadings" by Sparta, a peace treaty with Sparta is now in effect. The last 3 cities were too far away, with few roads and logestics problems prevented a quick end to the matter. The loss of a few units also didn't help matters.

Ahhh..a Peacetime econamy awaits. Time to head home, set up the garrison duty and relex for a bit.

Hmm..wounder what Morgon is doing. Bastard hasn't responded to a so much as a HELLO for centuries. Humph.

[Radman]

Hi all:

Move 2238 on to Arborman

Meanwhile . . .
==================

The Cyborg Secretary of State sat patiently writting a communique to each of the allies diplomatic corps asking whether they would like to conference on ways to maintain the peace and beneficially move forward on Planet in prosperity.

He wondered why the allies with whom he fought side by side were suddenly silent. He was also seeking the results of the discussions at UoP. The communique once again requested that the allies meet to review world trade and commerce so all benefitted.
