Swissy2 - Part IV

[MOBIUS]

It was with great shock and a heavy heart that Pro consul MOBIUS read the dusty despatch fresh from the Welsh/Egyptian front...

WAR!

First the entire World plunged into the gaping abyss of anarchy (Rome too has fallen foul...!), and now the touchpaper of this simmering powder keg between the World's two most powerful Empires has finally ignited!!!

Great Pharoah of the Eygptians, I call upon you now to withdraw your units for the sake of World peace - War was not the intention of the Roman peoples when a friendship was struck with your peoples...

PAX

MOBIUS

Turn 190 to Demosthenes.

Turn 190 ==> Mobius

The TIC throughily disproved the statement from Wales that the Egyptian action caused the rise of Fascism. As it is well known that in Wales it doesn't matter how the people vote, but who counts the vote.

The Egyptian Newpaper Guild signed an agreement not to publish battle news until a while after it happened as to deny the scheming Fascists an avenue of intelligence of which they so badly need

Turn 190 ==> Sophix

And so, whilst the people of Wales are deciding in which way to modernise their government, the Communist attack! This has had a tremendous effect on the Welsh psyche, with a real deep seated hatred of the Egyptians now oozing to the surface of Welsh culture.

This in turn pushed voting dramatically in favour of a Fascist form of government, best suited to the Welsh repulsion of all things Egyptian.

Word on the street, as well as the polling booth, has delivered stark messages to the Welsh government as in policy direction from now on. Many believe that the Egyptians have been asking for this war, waiting and wanting it's outbreak, despite repeated calls for peace from Wales.

With our now up and running government, with our recently opened Oil Refineries, Welsh production should now rise to meet the demand.

We would call for peace, and a withdrawal from Welsh territory, but it is obvious that Egypt has never had any peaceful intentions all along. With the sinking of vagrant vessels of war, and Treacherous Diplomats executed, we hope that Egypt receives the message that we are not about to be pushed around!

Your troops in the Cymru-Egyptian mountain borders are surrounded and way outnumbered, and will not be allowed to retreat in peace.

Egypt has brought this upon herself, we can only call upon her satellite state of Rome not to follow this reckless and suicidal path.

urn 191 ==> Sophix

The relentless advance of the tyrannical Communists continues. From both the North and South, hordes of troops, armed with Muskets, Cannons, and a misplaced faith in the virtues of Communism, march towards the tranquil land of the Welsh.

Preparation for these events had been started many years ago, when The WISE came into possession of Egyptian plans of invasion. In that time, all border towns were garrisoned up to the hilt, and their fortifications improved. Lines of transport between the interior production core of Wales and her externalities were greatly improved, allowing a quick and easy flow of heroic Welsh volunteers, eager to save their country from the Tyranny of Egypto-Communism.

An then came the assault, somewhat limited at first, probing the defences, cutting off early warning systems, whilst Wales was in the midst of transforming and modernising her means of governance.

This had a fateful impact upon Welsh psyche, and Fascism emerged as the dominate force in Welsh politics, forged upon the hatred of the Egyptian race and their cronies.

With Egyptian production now soaring to unprecedented levels, with a blatant disregard for the environment, both at home and abroad, Wales reacted by utilising the latest techniques in the refining of crude oil.

The new Fascist state, together with our lush and bountiful landscape, and our technologically advanced production systems, a new form of warrior was being sculpted.

The Fascists of Wales. A new breed of warrior, culturally, spiritually, physically stronger than anything offered from the Egyptians was born. This new breed of troop, with the purest of Welsh blood, was seen to be the elite force of a Fascist Wales. together with these new super-human troops, a rearguard was in the blueprint stages. The marines are coming...

[The True Demosthenes]

[The True Demosthenes]

While I have a moment to spare, I want to give you all advance notice.

I will be moving house after Friday October 20th. "Again? " I hear you all cry, yes, I'm afraid so. After moving from Newcastle back to my hometown of Birmingham, I'm now moving down to the Big Smoke, the Capital, London, where fortune and fame surely await me with baited breath

The details are a little sketchy at present, as this has all happened over the last 48 hours really, but in the last week of this month I shall be in London looking for a new home. "Looking? " I hear you cry, yes, I don't have a home or job sorted out as yet. My better half has got a transfer, and I will follow her wherever she goes, all else will fall into place at a later date.

I will update you on details as they are sorted, but I may well be unavailable for up to a week, and so subs may be required. All volunteers are welcome, I'm in the following games:

Sorry to be a pain in the proverbial, but consider yourselves warned.

Turn 191 ==> Mobius (Yesterday, Apolyton Down??)

Egyptian Armies pressed forward into Wales today, no real resistance has been encountered yet. The Fascist are estimated to prove a minor problem, and the Egyptain security council admitted that they should have performed the strikes earlier. But as it is Egyptian nature to look to the best in man, they had hoped against the pile of evidence; that Wales was intending peace and waited til the last ray of peace was crushed beneath the Welsh storm troopers steel boot. Never again will Egypt be so trusting.

Turn 192 ==> Sophix

The Communists march on Lampeter, but citizens and military alike were prepared for the advance. The city walls, emblazoned with Cannon broke into action in the dawn sky, waking the city and the attacking forces with deafening thunderclaps as cannonball after cannonball was flung into the morning sky.

However, being a peaceful race at heart, the Welsh have not had to use these weapons for hundreds of years, not since we were last invaded by the Romans. Becuase of this, their aim was poor, but as the sun rose to full height, the Welsh aim was much improved, picking off a number of Egyptian battalions.

News quickly spread around the Fatherland, and the people of Wales rejoiced. We shall not be overcome!
