Love Conquers? Part X

[MOBIUS]

Actually I should be up for 'Veterans' now...

Just got myself a temping job, so that's the final piece of the jigsaw - even if it's a crappy dogsbody role to start with...

Bring it on!

[MOBIUS]

Back in Charge!

Thanks to Obergruppenfuhrer Don for looking after the Reich so well in my absence

Indeed such is his good work that Spain is now well placed to move forward in her next divine step as a corporate republic!

Congratulations are to be extended to the Greeks for defeating the vile and underhand French - just do not let that success go to your head, Xenophon...

My eyes are red with the weeping at the news that I see before me. My beloved flock enslaved by heretics? The Holy Rock of St Jon sullied by the hand's of the unclean? Purity, truth and love all expunged from the dictionary of life? Selfless dedication to the enlightenment of humanity now but a distant and, soon to be, forgotten concept?

Sinner's though you be, you still have the Love of the Stainless One.

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

Well done Rick and thanks Birdman. A fortuitous visitation to the Forum indeed.

Best of luck all,
Cheers
Jon

So! St. Jon the Evil has been watching all this time, huh?

Come to think of it, so have i

Hello, Jon Good to see you're still alive, even if it's good to see your civs dead BTW, Paul ended up beating me in Lung's FAST! pbem. Serves me right for not crushing him like i did to you and Birdy Cursed mercy!!!

Thanks to rick for the present, we continue to clean up our/spains mess.

Hello Jon.

I'm sorry - but I couldn't sit still with the french without doing anything. That would be against your spirit.

So I choosed to challange the Greeks - in words. They replied with guns.

As I did realize the end was near - I started bashing to the spanish as well - just for fun. Tried to use my (Faded's to be honest) spy-nuke trick, until I didn't have money left.

That's that.

But one good thing has happen now. The spanish and the greeks have a long border now - and that should give much more fun for the rest of the players I think.

[hexagonian]

I hope that it wasn't my fault that the French were ultimately defeated, since those French nukes started flying while Greece was under my watch. Somebod(ies) might have seen that as an opportunity for some mischief....

Ah well, justice was served

[MOBIUS]

Great to see all the oldies dropping in from time to time!

New (hopefully uncorrupted) turn to Keygen's new email addy!

[Keygen]

What happened to you Mob and turned into a yellow potato?

So are you going to stay at Sidney for good?

Turn 209 to Rick.

Recent events leave Greek intelligence uneasy.

Reports of a change in Spanish policy could be ominous tidings. This coupled with statements purported to be by Tomas de Torquemada, but clearly the words of an imposter, leave the impression that foul play has occurred in Spain.

The real Tomas de Torquemada does not look like this "potato" man. Who could this imposter be, and where is the real Tomas de Torquemada? Has a coup taken place???

A Spanish spy plane flying above Welsh territory violating our airspace was spotted this turn. I hope this isn't the prelude of further and larger scale intrusions into our lands...

Turn 210 to Rick.

[MOBIUS]

The rumours of foul play in Spain are greatly exaggerated. Spain is merely entering a transition phase from one form of government to another...

The fact that Spain has moved from a Facist state should be see as a boon rather than a bane.

As for the Spy plane, officials think that the pilot may have got a little over zealous on his maiden flight! He will be severely reprimanded upon his return.

Turn 210--> General Glorita

Greece is hopeful that the positive words emanating from Spain shall prove to be true.

May we ask a favour of Madrid? Our Paratrooper now near Spain's Northeast border with Greece (the land formerly known as France) reports that he is trapped in Spanish territory. Would you be so kind as to issue a "no trespassing" demand so that he might quickly return to his worried loved ones?

Throngs cheer as happy citizens flock to use the world's first Chunnel. Now it is possible to use this underwater wonder to travel unimpeded between Bega and Athens by high-speed monorail. Thus the tragedy of the Great Flood slowly becomes a distant memory for our people...
