Naval Clash (turn tracking)

[Sankis]

Oops - forgot to switch my config file again, sorry for the reload.

I really need to build more cities, ...its going to take 61 turns for my next technology :/ Atleast i'm up in the charts somewhat.
=============================================

N.Y 2138.1005

The Nautilus Empire wishes to announce the discovery of "Progenitor Psyche", and the acqusition of "Gene Splicing". If any parties are interested in either of these technologies send a message to the attached frequency.

That is all.

[Barinthus]

Geo, glad you liked the narrative

By the way 2138 is waiting for you.

[GeoModder]

Merci, c'est jouer.
2138 à le professeur.

No luck on the diplomatic level sofar, I try in some turns a sideway.

***********************************************
The following message has been released for interfactional broadcast

Atlantean Broadcasting Networks, office at Neagh Trench, MY 2138.1005

Last month a county scattered with farms near UN Headquarters has been bombarded by Atlantean Naval Forces, the harvest is throughly destroyed as a result.
Since infiltration revealed that the Peacekeepers were hoarding excessive amounts of food anyway which they kept hidden in order to block the humanitarian aid of hungry population groups elsewhere on Chiron, no danger for starvation on Peacekeeper side is expected. Perhaps brother Lal will have teached his lesson now and stop these sorts of machiavellic games to win votes for his bid on the planetary governor seat.

[Rubin]

Public Announcement, M.Y. 2138:
Lady Deirdre of the Gaians has authorized the construction of The Human Genome Project.

2139 to Sankis.

[GeoModder]

Was afraid she was about ready to start a project.

I thought that the AI's 'turn' came after the players? Didn't saw this in my F5 screen.

[Sankis]

turn to angels..

I really need to expand...

[GeoModder]

Then stop building military material.

[Barinthus]

Geo, your turn to expand

Coastal shelfs near Rubin University, MY 2139.1305

Princess Enid stood upon the bow of her transport foil. In the distance before her the towers of Rubin University became visible. Tall towers, perched upon the coastal cliffs near the port facility which the foil was approaching.

As the ship came closer to shore, fungal fields could be seen on the eastern side of the base, accenting the rocky cliffwalls on the western side. Quite another view then she had learned to like some years ago during her study at the Angel faction where only vast rolling plains dotted with fungal forests could be seen.

Fright razed in her, but nothing could be seen of it for the benefit of the crew, and later the mysterious Doctor Rubin, leader of the University faction. Little was known about this man, and even less he choose to disclose about his longterm goals and plans. Still, she was accepted to study here, which her parents saw as quite an honor as the research capabilities of the University even exceeded those of the Kingdom. Much was to be learned on this place, and even more hopefully usefull for future developments within the Kingdom.

Finally her foil rounded a cliff pinnacle rising out the sea and there became the bases' quay visible. A reception party stood there, waiting for the 'Gifter' to land. Enid accepted the binoculars the foils captain gave her and looked through it to the party on the quay.
She recognized Dr. Nataliya, her mentor for the coming years, at the head of the party. Appearantly Doctor Rubin didn't find it necessary to receive her here today. She had expected that much already, but still it piqued her on how unimportant interfactional affairs (namely she) seemed to him. No doubt soon a quite logical explanation would ring in her ears when Dr. Natalya spoke to her. Princess Enid of the Atlantean Kingdom on Chiron straightened her shoulders and sighted...

Turn 2139 sent to Rubin.

2140 to Sankis.

"Your Highness, Princess Enid, welcome! You'll presumably find you stay here at the University of Planet quite different than that of your usual naval habitats. I am Dr. Nataliya and I am to be your mentor while you are studying here."

Dr. Nataliya was clearly weighed down by the absence of Doctor Rubin--although mildly. The princess did not seem to mind initially--a quick inquisitive glance around the welcoming committee was the only sign that she even noticed.

The diplomatic relationship between the Atlantean Kingdom and the University of Planet had suffered a few setbacks during recent years and Dr. Nataliya feared that the proud young woman before her was to become a tactical pawn in a cynical diplomatic scheme.

"I've studied you personal files, your highness, and I am impressed with your curriculum--especially your skills in Planetary Biology..."

"Please, Nataliya, just Enid", the princess had a promising vital freshness in her tone, "...and yes, I've learned to understand and value the beauty and secrets of the fauna and flora of Chiron; the sea variants especially."

Rubin University had an inhospitable--almost eerie--appearance; situated between barren mountains and vast streches of Xenofungus. The princess knew that her first lessons was of an unusual kind. She needed surgery. It was common practice for all University students to be 'enhanced' by cybernetic research implants and Enid realized that without the base bio-module much of her time at the University labs would be completely wasted. The base bio-module was a kind of logical container providing the student with updated information on current studies as well as extending the learning capacity. She hoped to have the 'Xenobiology module extension' implanted at some time.

"Enid, I'm sure Doctor Rubin wants to meet with you soon. I'm not entirely certain, but I believe the Doctor is preparing evidence to convince Chairman Yang of the Human Hive of 'the fundamental faulty' in hivean ideology. They've been resuming an old dispute--however, the Doctor rarely appears publicly and even I do not know the exact nature of the projects he is preparing in his private lab. Nevertheless, he did mention that your coming portended changes that he was certain you would appreciate."

(The arrival of Enid, Princess of the Atlanteans. M.Y. 2139)

The University of Planet announces a change in economic structures that should eliminate the threat of numerous native incursions.

[Sankis]

The turn has been given to the angels..

[Barinthus]

Unfortunately the turn I received was for you, Sankis. Please send my turn.

BTW I will not be able to play a turn until Sunday mid-afternoon GMT -8 (It's possible I could do so around late Saturday evening but I can't promise this but knowing myself I probably will)

[Barinthus]

Hi, please read my lastest email to you, Sankis

[Barinthus]

Without any further delays, here's turn for Geo!
