Land Debates Begin

Roze has begun talks in order to fully ratify the new "Tri-faction Agreement" regarding the placement of borders. Tentative borders are already being respected, however the staking of territory beyond the boundries of the bases is the current concern.

It is likely that Morgan and Zakharov will want to see that Data Angel territory is restricted, to prevent too much expansion on the part of our faction. However, Roze has said that she will ensure that the Data Angels have their fair share of access to Planet's resources.

Currently plans are being discussed regarding an eventual move towards the plentiful resources of Planet's oceans. Professor David Roberts, Head of R&D has stated that once the current study of Planet's local flora and fauna has been catalouged, designs will be put forward to create a seaworthy vessal capable of standing up to Chiron's dangerous depths.

Roze Begins Plans for Third Base

Plans are moving ahead to construct a new colony pod, leading to the establishment of the Data Angel's third base. The call has gone out to residents of Data DeCentral, whose inadequate facilities are feeling somewhat cramped, to brave Planet's dangers and strike out and colonise!
It does not take a political analyst to see that doing so, will enable Roze to stake further claims for the Data Angels in the current negotiations, ensuring that there will be room for future Data Angel expansion.

Tri-Power Treaty

As talks closed yesterday the three powers on Chiron have carved out a treaty that will benefit all involved.

Free data will be traded between all factions in exchange for map data, money, and other types of trade.

All three will work together to start a new, utopian Earth on Chiron.

Long live the Tri-Power Treaty...

Borders

The borders of the new treaty will include a strip of Data Angel land in the middle of the continent between Zakharov's University and the Great CEO Morgan's Morganite Territory.

Expansion for all factions is allowed in the territorial agreement and all should be pleased with the results.

We have monitored yet another strange radio signal from the no-go zone to the west.

Other news: I have taken the liberty to prepare a map for submission to the Data Angels and Morganites. I have not included any sensitive structures on the map, and have manufactured a false survey of the no-go zone that should sastify foreign scrutiny. I transmit this map to you with accompanying survey data that will verify the map.

We have just entered the perimeter of Foreign Base 2(Tau Collective) and now in view of the base. There is activity, but we haven't encountered any problems, except for the Mind Worms Incident few days ago where 2nd Recon Rovers lost a couple of rovers.

We are awaiting for further orders.

Urgent message
From:Commander Hardion, 1st scout rover unit
To:Colonel Santiago
1-19-2119

Sir, we´ve intercepted numeral radio signals and have found tracks left by rovers.
I´ve also sent some of our rovers as scouts ahead of our joint unit, to detect any bases or other units.They´ve already reported about different farming and mining installations and have seen people in these installations, but haven´t made any contact yet.

The installations carry the U.N sign, Sir, and under it ”Peacekeeping forces”.I believe we are near a human base, about two or three days away.We will try to locate this base.

1-22-2119

Sir, terrific news!Our scouts have located the base, and the rest of our unit has headed towards it.We will keep our distance and won´t let them detect us, until you say so, Sir.

Your orders are now this:You will make contact with the U.N. forces.Take your original unit,leave the other unit as a backup, drive to their base and demand an audience with the local leader.Give him personally the communication frequency that you will find in a encrypted file coming with this message.After he has received the communication frequency, leave the area and go back to the south border.
If you do the job well, you will be awarded.If not, don´t bother coming back home.
That is all, Commander.

Other Survivors found!


Colonel Santiago announced today the discovery of another human faction. They call themselves “peacekeeping forces” and use the sign of the old U.N, which existed back on earth.
Apparently their agendas and values are completely different than ours. They still act on the useless U.N. charter, and oppose any kind of action that breaks it. They adore weakness and reject true power and loyalty.
If you ask my opinion, these people would hardly suit to be our friends, we don´t understand them and they don´t understand us.

However, our leader Colonel Santiago has initiated negotiations with the peacekeepers leader, former Unity surgeon, Commissioner Pravin Lal.The objective of the negotiations is drawing borders between the two factions, and even possible treaties.

What's In A Name?

That is the question that Datajack Roze has put to the populace. As plans move forward for the construction of a third base, Roze has decided to allow the public to decide which base name they like the best. An on-line poll will be available at the Freedom's Banner main web-site where you will be able to select one of four possibilities as your favourite. The choices are:

The Sprawl
Stack Heap
Nettap Complex
Shadow Sprawl

In other news, Jerimiah Gibson has been added to Roze's cabinet. The reknowned computer wizard (although aren't we all?) has been selected to serve as Roze's Minister of Information.

New Embassies Announced

To further consolidate our new found friendship within the Tri-Faction Alliance, Roze has announced that she will be creating permanant embassies at both Morgan Industries and University Base. This will allow for easy communication between all three factions, so that if any disagreements should arise they can be quickly, and judiciously resolved.
So far, no sites have been defined, however Minister Windsor is in negotiations with representatives from both bases in order to allocate the sites.

Spartan Peace Talks

Talks have commenced with the rogue 'Spartans' and their free-arms policies.

Although we have free-arms policies here in Peacekeeper land we do not take them to the extremes that the rogue Spartans do as all of you who have encountered Spartan forces and citizens should very well know.

In a few weeks we hope to see a treaty between the Spartans and our forces that will be mutually beneficial to both sides...

What happened to the Scouting Expedition...

The Recon Rovers that was sent to land about a month ago and today Headquarters as received message from them that everything is okay. They ended up having some misuntanding which cause them to have a small skirmish with "Cyborg" Scout Patrols, but no one got seriously hurt. They later got to Foreign Base 1 called "Alpha Prime" to the Leader, Aki Zeta-Five of the Cyborg Consciousness. Captain Ulrik Svensgaard is now in contact with this Leader. We'll more information when we get it...


Who are the Cyborg Consciousness?

Not much is known about them still, but it appears to be Faction made of Cyborgs. As for where they are from, we are not sure, but we do know that Aki Zeta-Five was a crew member of Unity identified by Captain Svensgaard as Aki Knutsvik. They are the first Human Faction we have contacted since Planetfall.

OOC: whats her lastname again? Oh, Darkcloud, its 2119 now, not 2118.


New Orders for Unity Gunboat Unity

Unity as been giving new orders...to continue its original Orders to explore west of Port Svensgaard. Captain Ulrik Svensgaard planning to have another base established there. So in the meantime, Safe Haven will start production of a Sea Colony Pod.

Post to the Consciousness 3-39-19
From: Our Glorious Leader
Topic: Let the games begin

I'm sure that this message finds everyone in great health, and pursuing their lifes ambition to the utmost of their capabilities. Let this message mark a further evolution to our current journay.

We live in our self-imposed isoloation no-longer. We have encountered a group of humans led by a man calling himself 'Captain Ulrik Svensgaard'. They control a strong navy and live in sea bases. There is much we can learn from them about the sea's of Chiron, I am sure, and the ability to conduct commerce will aid our faction ensure it's future security and fund increased research projects.

To be added though, they are human, and therefore we should reserve our trust until their actions prove their worth. There has already been a small skirmish (to be expected, unfortunately, when biologicals still rely on their emotion: fear)which resulted in no casualties however. With the recent completion of the prototype for our new Augmented Patrol, we have invested a large sum of capital expenditure to upgrade our obsolete units to the new model. This has ensured us military parity with the rest of the inhabitants of this planet.

This contact with 'The Nautilus Pirates' (which is how they jokingly refered to themselves, a name, I fear that may yet prove their character) has meant that it is also time to 'come out from the shadows' and reveal our presence to the other factions that inhabit this continent that we live on. It is time for us to play an active role in our security.

This shall prove to be an exciting time, as our diplomacy machine prepares to engage the humans and ensure that not only are we able to pursue our ambitions in relative peace and security, but increase our resources and even further expand the possibility for growth and choice.
