The war against the great tyrant contuines. spy report come in from the mighty Welsh nation saying," Yes indeed the Mighty Demos did make his speach today, but unlike what you would suspect it was to his nobles and high ranking class and not the peasants. The nobles ofcource agreed that Demos was doing a fine job but the peasants who were questioned gave a different reply. They demanded to be freed from his evil cluches and begged that the mighty Roman leader would also come and free them. The troops are on the way at this very moment to come and liberate them from oppession.

The Pharaoh turned down, the recent Welsh request, once again Egypt states they our nuetral. As stated before Egypt does not have offensive forces and the only thing that war with either side would avail would be the constant need to maintain an inordinate amount of forces in every city.

"For Egypt to declare war, would mean complete war, as we share long borders with both civilization." General Hematatin stated after denying the call to arms.

Turn 85 ==> Sophix

I see that the Australians have also resorted to the use of violence. Welsh intelligence reports that one English city has been anhilated, and their capital captured.

I wonder why everything ultimately comes down to war. Well, Sophix, what's it like to be the only nation not at war? Or are you going to join in when we've all expended ourselves?

Results just in:

A resounding vote in favour of the continuation of the Demosthenes government was recorded yesterday. A mighty majority of 83 percant was recorded. Government officials denied reports of vote rigging, and put the opposing 17 percent down to the selfish nobles, and bribery from the corrupted Romans.

The result was seen as a clear endorsement of a Welsh call to arms and retaliation against the Romans with the newly devised Welsh weaponary, which prelimenary reports suggest propel an object like a missile through the detonation of an explosive charge.

Production was stepped up, and a full mobilisation of all armed forces was also reported. Despite calls for conscription, due to the success shown by Roman conscripts and slaves, Lord Demosthenes rejected it on grounds that conscription was unjust, and the act of a tyrant. Such action could never be condoned by a democratic and just leader such as Demosthenes, especially with recent accusations from the Roman propaganda machine.

In a defiant public address, Demosthenes stated:
"Shavlor, I know of your plans through the democratic Welsh Intelligence Service Elect (WISE). I wish to warn all other nations that following the Romans plan of attack, from all sides with large stacks of units, will not be tolerated. I do not believe that any of my other neighbours have the intention of following your plan Shavlor, but then I was proved very much wrong with yourself was I not?

The people of Wales have decided that I have a duty to fulfil. I must make amends for my recent mistake, and reinstate Welsh rule in Brecon. With the use of the WISE, and the continued build up, in all cities, we believe, I believe, that we can put things right.

We have previously asked all other nations to join us in a crusade against the Romans, but we know now from your replies, and our consideration, that this is a matter to be decided between the Welsh and Roman nations alone. Therefore I implore all other nations not to intervene in any any manner. If the peace is kept between us and yourselves, we will continue to benefit your nations."

The WISE also reported huge human rights abuses in the former Welsh city of Brecon, with the population being forced into slave-like conditions in the rush to complete a wonder to their new egotistical ruler, Shavlor.

Correction - that's *2* cities annihilated and their capital captured

So how did the Welsh intelligence find out? It must be English propaganda, therefore the English must DIE so they cannot spread foul rumours about us saintly Australians!!!

So, Andrew the puny of the English - are you just waiting to die? How else do you explain your pathetic defence of your cities?? It appears that the English are not worthy and are better off under the strong leadership of the mighty Steve Waugh the Legendary

My, how the world has suddenly changed into a violent place. It's a good job nobody knows how to make nukes yet

FYI, it may have escaped your notice, but there are a few of my units wandering about that particular area, inculding a diplomat who was about to establish an embassy with a city that is no longer there. There's also the trade route accepted by the English to a city which is no longer there.

Which leaves me to ask, why the unprovoked attack on the English? In what way were they a threat? Indeed, in what way are the Welsh a threat? We haven't instigated this spate of violence. Rumour has it that the Romans have spiked the water supplies of other nations with LSD, although this has not, as yet, been confirmed by the WISE.

Turn 85 ==> Shavlor (or is that the military leader whose taken control)

Egypt is greatly saddened by the Warlust that appears to engulf the world, but according to General Humatatin the wars which now engulf the world are all for the best, commenting on the two wars, the General stated, " The War between Rome and Wales will serve to divert Welsh funds from more profitable enterprises such as science and growth. The Australian war on England is also seen as advantageous, as it will establish another power who vie with Welsh."

The secretive TIC(Theben Intellegence Commision) also released a statement today validating, the new technology which the Welsh stated to have gained. It is believed to serve extremely well for defense making a city very hard to take.

The Arch Bishop of Ra cautioned the Welsh over the plebian voting, " Although it's(the voting's) validity has not been substantiated. The mere hint of giving power to the dregs is disastrious. All one has to do is look at Rome. That was indeed an uprising of the rabble caused in part if not in full, by the power of the lower classes. Luckily in Egypt the power remains firmly in the hands of the Pharaoh."

The mighty leader of the Roman forces simply laughs at all these lies told by Demos the great tyrant. Indeed it was the lower classes that were brought about to see the light of truth. The lower class can see through the clouds and spot that the Demos of the Welsh is indeed not a noble leader but a cruel and heartless tyrant.
Spy report have come in today that the Welsh peasants have been forced into submittion, by the tyrants right hand men. True he doesn't use usally consriction instead he will simply kill them if they refuse. The tyrant has been forced to public excutions of at least 10 noble, just, and upright men. The stories told about the tyrants acts being told by the citizens now living in Brecon are treible to hear. The Roman people are now more inraged than ever about the unjust deeds of the tyrant.

Turn 86 ==> Shavlor

The TIC established two embassys today announcing that they now have embassy with every power. In this statement they excluded England, stating intelligence reports believing that England will soon lose all power.
